Abstract

Present study was conducted to analyze the milk quality and adulteration in milk sold in Thane City during the year 2015. Eleven branded pouch cow milk samples were collected from different sale points of Thane City. The samples were analyzed for fat, solid-non-fat (SNF), protein, acidity, neutralizers and adulterants. Our analysis showed that the milk samples analyzed were free from adulterants like Urea, Starch, Glucose, Sugar, Salt and Nitrates. Acidity ranged from 0.045 to 0.164, fat from 1.4 to 3.9%, Protein from 1.19 to 2.99%, SNF from 6.13 to 8.88%.
