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.
