Physico-Chemical Composition of Colostrum of Buffaloes from the Bulgarian Murrah Breed
Keywords:
buffalo colostrum, physicochemical composition, total protein, milk fatAbstract
The physico-chemical composition of pooled buffalos colostrum samples is compared with literature data with the physico-chemical composition of samples buffalo milk and colostrum from
buffaloes, goats and cows to determine if a suitable raw material for the development of a functional
bio-product. The content of total protein (8.09%), milk fat (9.12%), dry matter (27.8%) and dry non-fat
residue (18.68%) is higher than that of samples goat colostrum and buffalo milk, which shows, it has
a higher biological and nutritional value regarding of protein and lipid content. The titratable acidity
(21 °T) is similar to that established by the BSS for buffalo milk first and second quality. The active
acidity (pH) (6.04) is lower than that of buffalo milk. The tested colostrum has a low energy value
(131.597 kcal/549.3 kJ /), mainly due to the low lactose content (3.32%).
