The results revealed that, cow milk had 6.30 ± 0.15 pH, 0.29 ± 0.04% titratable acidity, 14.6 ± 0.60% total solid, 0.75 ± 0.07% ash, 3.54 ± 0.12% protein, 5.54 ± 0.65% fat and 1.06 ± 0.03 specific gravity. -
Survey of Postharvest Handling, Preservation and Processing Practices Along the Camel Milk Chain in Isiolo District, Kenya
Volume 12 No. 7 December 2012 SURVEY OF POSTHARVEST HANDLING, PRESERVATION AND PROCESSING PRACTICES ALONG THE CAMEL MILK CHAIN IN ISIOLO DISTRICT, KENYA Wayua FO1*, Okoth MW2 and J Wangoh2 Francis Wayua *Corresponding author’s email: [email protected] 1Kenya Agricultural Research Institute, P.O. Box 147 (60500), Marsabit, Kenya 2Department of Food Science, Nutrition and Technology, University of Nairobi, P.O. Box 29053 (00625), Nairobi, Kenya 6897 Volume 12 No. 7 December 2012 ABSTRACT Despite the important contribution of camel milk to food security for pastoralists in Kenya, little is known about the postharvest handling, preservation and processing practices. In this study, existing postharvest handling, preservation and processing practices for camel milk by pastoralists in Isiolo, Kenya were assessed through cross- sectional survey and focus group discussions. A total of 167 camel milk producer households, 50 primary and 50 secondary milk traders were interviewed. Survey findings showed that milking was predominantly handled by herds-boys (45.0%) or male household heads (23.8%) and occasionally by spouses (16.6%), sons (13.9%) and daughters (0.7%). The main types of containers used by both producers and traders to handle milk were plastic jerricans (recycled cooking oil containers), because they were cheap, light and better suited for transport in vehicles. Milk processing was the preserve of women, with fresh camel milk and spontaneously fermented camel milk (suusa) being the main products. Fresh milk was preserved by smoking of milk containers and boiling. Smoking was the predominant practice, and was for extending the shelf life and also imparting a distinct smoky flavour to milk. -

Bacteriological Quality of Raw Camel Milk Along the Market Value Chain In
Abera et al. BMC Res Notes (2016) 9:285 DOI 10.1186/s13104-016-2088-1 BMC Research Notes RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Bacteriological quality of raw camel milk along the market value chain in Fafen zone, Ethiopian Somali regional state Tsegalem Abera1*, Yoseph Legesse2, Behar Mummed1 and Befekadu Urga2 Abstract Background: The camel is a multipurpose animal with a huge productive potential. Camel milk is a key food in arid and semi-arid areas of the African and Asian countries. The quality of milk is influenced by different bacteria present in milk. This study was conducted to evaluate total bacterial content in raw camel milk along the market chain in Fafen zone, Ethiopian Somali Regional State. Methods: One hundred twenty-six raw camel milk samples were collected from Gursum (47.1 %) and Babile (52.9 %) districts. The three sampling levels included were udder (14.7 %), milking bucket (29.4 %) and market (55.9 %). Milk samples were analyzed for total bacterial counts (TBC) and coliform counts (CC). Furthermore, major pathogens were isolated and identified. Result: 108 (85.7 %) of raw camel milk samples demonstrated bacterial contamination. The overall mean TBC and CC of contaminated raw camel milk samples was 4.75 0.17 and 4.03 0.26 log CFU/ml, respectively. TBC increased from udder to market level and was higher in Gursum ±compared to Babile± district (P < 0.05). Around 38.9 % of TBCs and 88.2 % CCs in contaminated raw camel milk samples were in the range considered unsafe for human utility. Staphylococcus spp. (89.8 %), Streptococcus spp. -
Camel Milk Cheese: Optimization of Processing Conditions
Qadeer et al./Journal of Camelid Science 2015, 8:18-25 http://www.isocard.net/en/journal Camel milk cheese: optimization of processing conditions Zahida Qadeer1, Nuzhat Huma1*, Aysha Sameen1, Tahira Iqbal2 1National Institute of Food Science and Technology and 2Department of Biochemistry, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad 38040, Pakistan Abstract Making cheese from camel milk is considered to be a difficult task. A study was conducted to optimize the processing conditions (temperature, pH, CaCl2 and the addition of buffalo milk) for the production of camel milk cheese (CMC). In the preliminary trials, the heating temperature of 65 C for 30 min was found optimal when considering the cheese yield out of 60-75 °C for 30 min. A range of pH levels (5.5, 5.7, 6.0, 6.3, 6.5) were then trialed in order to determine the optimal level necessary to manufacture cheese with the desired characteristics of acidity, protein, fat, moisture, yield, percentages, coagulation time and texture of cheese. On the basis of composition (protein 16.47%, fat 16.67%, moisture 68.4%), texture (6.7 N) and coagulation time (37.7 min), the cheese manufactured at pH.5.5 was selected from the five treatments. In the next stage, CMC was prepared with the addition of CaCl2 (0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08%) at the chosen pH of 5.5 from the previous study. The conditions containing 0.06% CaCl2 resulted in a higher yield with an improved coagulation time and texture of CMC. In the final step, buffalo milk (0, 10, 20, and 30 %) was mixed with the camel milk in an attempt to produce CMC with improved texture. -
Simulation of Physicochemical and Pharmacokinetic Properties of Vitamin D3 and Its Natural Derivatives

Multiple hydroxylation reactions in several tissues including liver and small intestine produce different forms of vitamin D3. Low serum vitamin D levels is a global problem which may origin from differential absorption following supplementation. The objective of the present study was to estimate the physicochemical properties, metabolism, transport and pharmacokinetic behavior of vitamin D3 derivatives following oral ingestion. GastroPlus software, which is an in silico mechanistically-constructed simulation tool, was used to simulate the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic behavior for twelve vitamin D3 derivatives. The Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and Toxicity (ADMET) Predictor and PKPlus modules were employed to derive the relevant parameters from the structural features of the compounds. The majority of the vitamin D3 derivatives are lipophilic (log P values > 5) with poor water solubility which are reflected in the poor predicted bioavailability. The fraction absorbed values for the vitamin D3 derivatives were low except for calcitroic acid, 1,23S,25-trihydroxy-24-oxo-vitamin D3, and (23S,25R)-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone each being greater than 90% fraction absorbed. -

Camel milk: Natural medicine - Boon to dairy industry Rohit Panwar2; Chand Ram Grover 1; Vijay Kumar2; Suman Ranga2 and Narendra Kumar2 1 Principal Scientist; 2PhD Scholars; Dairy Microbiology Division, ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal, 132001 (Haryana), India Corresponding Author: Dr. Chand Ram Grover, Principal Scientist, Dairy Microbiology Division, ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal, 132001 (Haryana), India Email: [email protected] Introduction: Ayurveda has referred medicinal value of camel milk under the classification of “Dugdha Varga”. The camel has also been mentioned among the animals as miracle of God in the Quran. It is common practice to let camels to eat certain plants in order to use the milk for medicinal purpose. According to FAO statistics, there are 19 million camels population in the world, of which 15 million are in Africa and 4 million in Asia. Out of this estimated world population, 17 million are believed to be one-humped dromedary camels and 2 millions two-humped (Farah et al., 2004). The camel is multi-purpose animal with high productive potential. In the time of global warming, growing deserts and increasing scarcity of food and water, may make camel a potential candidate to overcome some of these problems. The camel is an excellent source of milk under these conditions. Indeed, countries like Afghanistan, Algeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, Iran host large populations of camel and therefore, its milk is an integral part of human diet. Most of the camels are kept by pastoralists in subsistence production systems. They are very reliable milk producers during dry seasons and drought years, especially during milk scarcity from cattle, sheep and goats. -

Mathematical analysis of Córdoba calcifediol trial suggests strong role for Vitamin D in reducing ICU admissions of hospitalized COVID-19 patients 1,2* 1,2 Irwin Jungreis and Manolis Kellis 1 MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Cambridge, MA 2 Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, MA * Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract A randomized controlled trial of calcifediol (25-hydroxyvitamin D3) as a treatment for hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Córdoba, Spain, found that the treatment was associated with reduced ICU admissions with very large effect size and high statistical significance, but the study has had limited impact because it had only 76 patients and imperfect blinding, and did not measure vitamin D levels pre- and post-treatment or adjust for several comorbidities. Here we reanalyze the reported results of the study using rigorous and well established statistical techniques, and find that the randomization, large effect size, and high statistical significance address many of these concerns. We show that random assignment of patients to treatment and control groups is highly unlikely to distribute comorbidities or other prognostic indicators sufficiently unevenly to account for the large effect size. We also show that imperfect blinding would need to have had an implausibly large effect to account for the reported results. -

We conducted a literature review using PubMed and Cochrane databases to examine micronutrient deficiencies in SG patients in order to identify trends and find consistency in recommendations. Seventeen articles were identified that met the defined criteria. Iron, vitamin B12 and vitamin D were the primary micronutrients evaluated. Results demonstrate the need for consistent iron and B12 supplementation, in addition to a multivitamin, while vitamin D supplementation may not be necessary.
