composition of milk

The composition of milk differs widely among species.

In addition, he performed research on the composition of milk, and conducted studies on beer and wine.

It has not been established what changes could potentially occur in the composition of milk and the effects of genetic engineering on human health cannot yet be assessed.

All mammalian species produce milk, but the composition of milk for each species varies widely and other kinds of milk are often very different from human breast milk.

Gross composition of milk differs by the mother's lactation stage, with ash and protein content showing a declining trend, but pH, percentage of whey protein, and amino acid content remaining the same.

These studies generally suffer from confounding variables, and are difficult to generalize due to differences in the tests that were done, the season of testing and brand of milk tested, and because the vagaries of agriculture affect the chemical composition of milk.
