Abstract

Nutritional and fatty acid profiling of Murrah Buffalo, Sahiwal and Hariana Cow’s milk was conducted at DUVASU, an instructional livestock farm complex. In which milk samples from ten animals of each Hariana and Sahiwal cows and Murrah buffalo were collected at monthly interval. These samples were then separately analyzed for nutritional and fatty acid components. On comparison with Hariana and Sahiwal, Sahiwal was showing higher fat and casein components than Hariana. Murrah buffalo milk was having greater quantity of fat, casein, lactalbumin, total solids, SNF and lactose as compared to cow milk. Major Fatty acids recorded were butyric, Caproic, capric, lauric, Myristic, palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, linolenic etc. Oleic acid was recorded 24.63% in Sahiwal, 23.24% in Hariana and 30.58% in Murrah. Linolenic acid was higher in buffalo than cow milk. Lauric and Myristic fatty acids were less in summer while Palmitic was higher in summer. Stearic acid varies throughout the year. CLA was recorded 0.34 g/100 g in buffalo milk while Sahiwal milk showed 0.62 g/100 g and Hariana 0.51 g/100 g.
