Milk and Dairy Products
Milk and its products (ghee, butter, paneer, condensed milk, ice cream, cheese, whey, yogurt, etc.) are widely consumed across the world as they contain various important macro and micronutrients essential to the human diet. To produce good quality milk or dairy products, it is imperative that the raw milk being used is hygienic. Therefore, it is critical to ensure that the raw milk is free from adulteration and that its nutritional value is not altered while processing.
CEGTH assist the manufacturers in ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and standards. Our world-class testing services analyze the samples of milk and its products for their nutritional value, adulteration, and microbial contamination, if any.
Our food testing laboratory is well-equipped to analyze various safety & quality parameters as per the specifications laid down by FSSAI. Our capabilities in milk & dairy products testing include:
Quality Parameters: Wet Chemistry
- Milk Fat
- Milk Solids not Fat
Specification for quality parameters varies between different types of cattle and states.
Nutritional Profile
- Energy
- Protein
- Carbohydrate
- Fatty Acid Profile: Saturated Fat, Monounsaturated Fat, Poly Unsaturated Fat and Trans Fat
As per WHO recommendation, not more than 1% of energy should be contributed by trans-fat.
