Milk recording

Milk fats are formed from two sources. Approximately 50% of bovine milk fats are synthesized from feed, so by changing feeds and creating optimal conditions for the activity of rumen microorganisms, it is possible to alter the composition of milk fats.

Results of research conducted by scientists from the Veterinary Academy of the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, related to the impact of feeding on the composition of milk fats, showed that the milk from pasture-grazed cows was more valuable than that of cows fed solely with feed mixtures, as it contained more polyunsaturated fatty acids essential for the human body.

As doctors claim, these acids are crucial for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, inhibit the development of atherosclerosis, suppress inflammatory processes and diabetes.

Milk fats consist of more than 400 different fatty acids. The majority is composed of saturated fatty acids (65-70%). Monounsaturated fatty acids account for 27-33%, primarily oleic acid. Polyunsaturated fatty acids make up 3.5-5%, and milk fats are relatively rich in short-chain saturated fatty acids (10%).

The laboratory identifies these important groups of fatty acids:

  • Saturated Fatty Acids (SFA)
  • Unsaturated Fatty Acids (UFA)
  • Monounsaturated Fatty Acids (MUFA)
  • Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA)

The analysis includes categories of fatty acids: de novo, mixed origin and pre-formed acids.

You can order the analysis along with a commercial milk composition test. Just write + fatty acids (FA) on the invoice or add an additional request.

For those with a contract, the cost of the milk composition and fatty acid analysis is only €1.69 excluding VAT (€2.05 including VAT). For those without a contract, the cost is only €2.48 excluding VAT (€3.00 including VAT).
