The research study was conducted on "Studies on preparation of burfi using oat powder". Research work was carried out in the Post graduate laboratory in Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, College of Agriculture, VNMKV, Parbhani during the year 2022-23. Burfi was prepared from buffalo milk (standardized with 6 percent fat and 9 percent SNF) with constant level of sugar (30 percent by weight of khoa) and with different levels of oat powder (2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 percent by weight of khoa). On an average oat powder burfi of treatments T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 contained moisture was 16.00, 15.60, 15.00, 14.45 and 13.40 percent, respectively, the fat was 19.90, 18.54, 17.66, 16.94 and 15.98 percent, the protein was 15.61, 16.65, 17.05, 17.55 and 17.96 percent, the ash was 2.42, 2.49, 2.56, 2.62 and 2.69 percent, total solids 84.00, 84.40, 85.00, 85.55 and 86.35 percent and the carbohydrate was 46.05, 46.70, 47.72, 48.43 and 49.95 percent, the titratable acidity was 0.554, 0.535, 0.509, 0.496 and 0.483 percent, the pH was 6.37, 6.57, 6.60, 6.71 and 6.81 respectively.

The Almora district in Uttarakhand is renowned for its roasted khoya, a processed milk product. Khoya is sourced from the rural areas surrounding Almora, and its production and marketing play a vital role in supporting the local economy. In light of this, a comprehensive study was conducted to assess and rank the challenges faced by khoya producers throughout the production and marketing processes.To conduct this study, various constraints were identified, and a sample of 200 khoya producers supplying their products to nearby markets was selected through a multistage sampling approach. These producers were personally interviewed to gather insights into their challenges. The study employed the Garrett ranking technique to determine the relative importance of these constraints in the khoya production and marketing context. The findings of the study revealed that in the production stage, the most significant challenges were a lack of knowledge concerning cattle disease symptoms with mean score of 58.16, high cost of feed for dairy animals, with mean score of 54.33. In the marketing stage, the primary constraints along with their mean scores included post-preparation losses (70.78), low prices obtained for khoya, (60.47) delayed payment (51.78), and ongoing storage issues (27.00). In light of these results, it is evident that there is an urgent need to improve veterinary services to address the issue of cattle disease symptoms, as well as to establish fair pricing mechanisms in the rural belts under consideration. These measures are essential to support and sustain the khoya industry and the livelihoods of the local producers.
... India is one of the leading producers of milk and significant amount of liquid milk is handled in unorganized sectors for preparation of dairy products such as soft cottage cheese, ghee, sweets, and curd (Aggarwal et al., 2018). Chhana, an Indian variant of soft cottage cheese prepared by heat-acid coagulation of milk, having a very short shelf life is used mostly as ingredient for manufacturing of sweets (Kumar et al., 2015). ...
... Experimental data of coliforms, cocci, Lactobacillus, and total plate counts on Chhana was collected for each trial with different combinations of temperature and storage conditions (with or without immersing in whey). Three primary models; three term logistic (Verhulst, 1977), modified Gompertz (Aggarwal et al., 2018;Zwietering et al., 1994), and Baranyi and Roberts model ( (Baranyi & Roberts, 1995)) were analysed. Maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) and lag time (λ) for each growth curve were fitted using the raw data and non-linear fitting function. ...

... RO has also been exploited for continuous production of satisfactory quality khoa by concentrating milk to 30% TS and its subsequent feeding to scraped surface heat exchangers (SSHE) for further desired concentration which resulted in a net saving of 335-430 kcal energy per kg milk. As per Aggarwal et al. (2018), concentration of one kg milk to 65% TS using initial RO concentration needs only 20 kcal energy however, 136 kcal is required for its concentration in open pan boiling to similar TS level. Rizvi et al. (1987) produced Khoa powder from RO retentate (20% TS) that was heated (144-150°C in SSHE) and cooled to 83°C prior to roller drying. ...

The Indian dairy industry is highly diversified in terms of milk production, collection, processing and waste disposal. Membrane processing allows dairy sector to manufacture high quality nutritive dairy products at lower costs with minimum water use and product losses. Compared to prevailing traditional methods of milk concentration, reverse osmosis (RO) is still evolving, finding newer applications in dairy processing because of its potential benefits. A brief overview of RO, membranes, process variables, fouling, merits and demerits along with potential suppliers and membrane utilizing dairy plants in India are systematically presented in this review. Different applications of RO in dairy industry including concentration of liquid dairy streams, further utilization of RO retentate in formulation of ice-cream, dahi, traditional Indian dairy products, cheese and dried powders is also included. RO can play a prominent role in Indian dairy sector for simplifying the process automation, product diversification and efficient waste utilization.

The present study aimed to investigate the mass transfer phenomena during vacuum impregnation of Gulabjamun, specifically the migration of moisture into and fat from the product as well as sugar uptake by the product during soaking at varying levels of soaking syrup concentration (40, 50, and 60°Brix) and soaking time (2, 4, and 6 min). To describe these mass transport phenomena, mathematical models were developed using the one-dimensional transient mass diffusion equation and Crank’s equation. The moisture transfer coefficient was found to decrease with an increase in syrup concentration, i.e., 1.075 × 10–04, 8.729 × 10–05, and 5.097 × 10–05 m/s at syrup concentrations of 40, 50, and 60°Brix, respectively. Conversely, the fat transfer coefficient was observed to increase linearly with syrup concentration from 1.143 to 1.595 × 10–04 m/s, and the sugar transfer coefficient increased with an increase in syrup concentration from 3.179 to 5.257 × 10–05 m/s. The study established that the vacuum process significantly accelerated the mass transport of all evaluated entities. The models were validated at 55°Brix for 5 min at ambient temperature (30 °C) and found to provide an excellent fit to the experimental data.
