Abstract

The article introduces a comparative analysis of the component composition of milk obtained from Holstein cows and Saanen goats. The animals received an identical feed base under the same natural and climatic conditions (Leningrad Region, Russia). Monthly milk samples were tested for milk fat, protein, casein, lactose, and fatty acids using a FOSS 7 DSCC infrared analyzer. The cow’s milk was rich in fat, protein, casein, and lactose. The goat’s milk contained little saturated fatty acids, e.g., myristic, palmitic, and stearic. However, it was high in polyunsaturated and short-chain fatty acids. The milk of Saanen goats proved to have good prospects for the dairy industry, especially as part of functional food or infant formula.
