Milk Definition
- Milk is a natural secretion from mammary glands in humans and animals.
- It's the primary food for newborns until weaning.
- Before birth, the fetus receives nutrition through the placenta.
- Milk is complete nutrition, containing components for growth, life maintenance, and reproduction.
- Macronutrients: Carbohydrates, Lipids, and Proteins
- Micronutrients: Minerals and Vitamins
Milk Composition (various types of milk)
Type of Milk | Water (%) | Fat (%) | Protein (%) | Lactose (%) | Minerals (%) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Cow Milk | 87 | 3-4 | 3.5 | 5 | 0.8 |
Equine Milk | 91 | 1.9 | 2.5 (caseins) | 6.3(rich) | 0.3 |
Human Milk | 87.6 | 4 | 1.2 | 7 | 0.4 |
Camel Milk | 86.5 | 4 | 3.6 | 5 | 0.4 |
Goat Milk | 87 | 4 | 3.6 | 4.5 | 0.9 |
Sheep Milk | 80 | 8 | 5.6 | 4.8 | 0.9 |
Buffalo Milk | 82 | 7-9 | 4.5 | 4.8 | 0.8 |
Chemical Composition of Milk
- Water: 87% of whole cow's milk.
-
Solids: 13% of whole cow's milk. Comprises protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
- Water influences physical, chemical, and microbiological changes in dairy products.
- Milk is a "liquid in liquid" meaning a colloid suspension.
- Milk's fat is dispersed as the dispersed phase in water.
- Casein proteins are dispersed throughout the water.
Forms of Water in Milk
- Free water: Easily removed by evaporation; lightly entrapped.
- Absorbed water: Held tightly by intermolecular hydrogen bonds around hydrophilic food molecules.
- Bound water: Remains unfrozen below 0°C (usually -20°C). The amount varies depending on protein content.
Milk as a Solution
- True solutions (e.g., sugar in water): When a substance mixes with water or other liquids, it forms true solutions.
- Non-ionic solutions: When lactose dissolves in water, there is no significant change in lactose's molecular structure.
- Ionic solutions: Common table salt (NaCl) in water dissociates into cations (Na+) and anions (Cl-), forming an electrolyte.
Milk as an Emulsion
- Emulsion: a suspension of droplets of one liquid in another; mixture of immiscible liquids.
- Milk is an oil-in-water (o/w) emulsion.
- Butter is a water-in-oil (w/o) emulsion.
Milk as a Colloid
- Colloid: a suspension of small particles dispersed in a medium; casein in water.
- Tyndall effect: scattering of light by small particles in a colloid solution.
