Nutritional quality of dairy products by PANDISELVAM.R 1M.Tech Agricultural Processing And Food Engineering Tamilnadu Agricultural University
MILK
Cow milk contains, on average, 3.4% protein, 3.6% fat, and 4.6% lactose, 0.7% minerals and supplies 66 kcal of energy per 100 grams.
Milk protein is a rich source of essential amino acids.
Fat
Butyric acid is responsible for its typical flavours and off-flavours (rancidity) of milk and its products.
significant role in nutritive value, flavor, smooth texture, soft body and rich taste to dairy products.
Protein
Main proteins of milk are caseins, alpha-lactalbumin and beta-lactoglobulins.
Milk Sugar
Lactose is readily fermented by the lactic acid bacteria producing lactic acid and is important both in the production of cultured milk products and in the spoilage of milk and milk products by souring.
Lactose is responsible for the defect known as ‘sandiness’ in ice cream.
Mineral
Milk is an excellent source of calcium and phosphorus.
The minor constituents present in traces are Copper, Iron, Cobalt, Manganese, Silica and Zinc.
Vitamin
Milk is good source of vitamin A & vitamin D
However, milk is deficient in vitamin C.
Fat rich milk products -contain large quantities of fat soluble vitamins.
Whole milk, skim milk and buttermilk contain water soluble vitamins.
Pigments
carotene and xanthophyll, grouped together as carotenoids
Carotene - gives yellow colour to milk - acts as an antioxidant - precursor for vitamin A.

Nutritional quality of marine products
Composition Fish is an excellent source of protein due to its quality &
quantity It has good quality protein compared to any other animal
proteins Protein - 20% Biological value of fish protein - 80% Not good sources of energy and carbohydrate Not good sources of fat
Fish contains less amount of fat compared to meat and poultry.
The lipid content of both fish and prawns is very low (range 1-28%)
Fresh water fish & marine fish both good sources of PUFA
Cont…..,
Omega-3 Fatty Acids Fish is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids.
Our bodies don't manufacture this nutrient, which helps protect against heart disease
In marine fish with fat content (1.8%) PUFA content is 0.39g/100g edible muscle.
In prawns the PUFA ranged from 0.2-0.3
g/100g edible muscle with total fat
content of 1.0-1.8%.
Rich in calcium particularly small fish when eaten
with bones.
Marine fish are good sources of iodine.
Oysters are good sources of copper and iron. Sodium content of fresh water fish is slightly less
than meat. Fish liver oils are excellent sources of fat soluble
vitamins. Rohu contains vitamin C.
Cont…..,
Nutritional quality of poultry products
PoultryCompositionHigh protein - 18 -25% - essential amino acids required for building body tissues.Little fat on the meat of young birds, but the fat content is influenced by age, and species of poultry - less than half that of other meats.Chicken fat - more unsaturated Good source of B vitamins - niacin, riboflavin and minerals. Because of its high protein-to-fat ratio, poultry meat is advantageous to persons who must restrict the intake of fats.
