Abstract |
Milk samples from 60
she-camels (Camelus dromedaries) in different parity numbers (one
to fifth) and in different breed (Anafi n=10, Keneana n=20, Daili n=12
and Arabi n=18) were randomly collected to investigate the effect of
parity and breed on some physico-chemical components of camels milk.
Milk yield, fat, solid not fat (SNF) and protein were affect by parity
number (P<0.05). Significant differences (P<0.05) of breed types were
recorded in freezing point, conductivity, milk yield, fat, lactose, ash,
SNF and protein. The results showed strong positive correlation (P<0.01)
in density, freezing point, fat, SNF, lactose, ash and protein. But
between fat and lactose, fat and ash were positively correlated
(P<0.05). The correlation of each parameter with the added water and
conductivity was negatively highly significant (P<0.01). The study
concludes that parity and breed had significant effect on some physico-chemical
components of camel milk.
