“…Comparing with bovine milk, the amount of calcium in bovine milk from Qassim region in Saudi Arabia as reported by Al-Wabel was 661 ± 41.95 mg/kg (Al-Wabel, 2008), while in 2014, Nnadozie et al declared that the amount of calcium in bovine milk from Nigeria was 0.68 ± 0.08 mg/kg (Nnadozie et al, 2014). In 2013, the range of calcium content in bovine milk was reported as 91 to 120 mg/100 g (Muehlhoff et al, 2013).…”

“…In comparing regions, Elamin & Wilcox (1992) reported that the amount of calcium in the milk of camels from Riyadh region of Saudi Arabia measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy was 30.03 mg/100 g; while the study performed by Al-Wabel in Qassim region of Saudi Arabia measured the mean concentration of calcium up to 699.300 mg/kg (Al-Wabel, 2008). …”

The aim of this study was to determine the amount of major mineral compounds and heavy metals of camel milk in Iran. For this purpose camel milk samples were collected from seven regions of Iran include Qazvin, Golestan, Semnan, Sistan-Baluchestan, Khuzestan, Bushehr and Tehran. The samples were analyzed using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) method. The results showed that among the mineral contents, iron and zinc of camel milk were greater than bovine milk. Based on the codex standard 193-2007 standards, the maximum acceptable limit for lead and cadmium is 20 µg/kg and 10 µg/kg, respectively. The results of this study showed that the measured amounts of lead, cadmium and nickel in all samples were less than the acceptable limit for bovine milk. Bovine milk and dairy products are a poor source of iron, while the obtained data revealed that camel milk is a major source of minerals, especially iron. The camel milk's iron was 10 times more than bovine milk. However, variations in mineral content in camel milk could be due to feed, stage of lactation, milk collection time, drought conditions, environmental conditions and associated analytical methods. Camel milk recommended as a valuable source of food for the human.Keywords: camel milk; mineral element; heavy metal; Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP).Practical Application: This study allows knowing the amount of some mineral content and heavy metals of camel milk in Iran.

“…In addition, milk is an important source of minerals especially calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, chloride, iodine, magnesium, and small amounts of iron. These mineral constituents, calcium and phosphorus constitute a larger fraction in milk which is needed for bone growth and the proper development of newborns baby [4]. In humans, breast milk provides all the energy and nearly all nutrients required for infant growth and development during the first 1 to 6 months of life, as well as various immunological factors and bioactive components [5].…”

Materials and methodsMilk sample collection from Local area in Farah and three different animals' cows, Goat and Buffalo with an average age were used for this research. Early morning fresh milk samples were collected from the Cow, Goat and Buffalo with separate containers using standard milking procedures. To avoid contamination, containers used for sample collection were sterilized by soaking in 10% HNO3 for 24hours; then in distilled water for another 24hours after which they were rinsed with more distilled water and finally dried ready for sample collection. The collected samples were immediately packaged and transported for analysis. Proximate AnalysisProximate parameters determined using the AOAC method. Moisture, ash, crude protein, and crude lipid contents were determined by oven drying, furnace, micro Kjeldah, soxlet extraction methods respectively [10]. Mineral analysisThe samples for mineral analysis were digested as per the procedure described by Kolmer [11] with slight modification. Briefly, 0.2 g sample was mixed with 7 ml of nitric acid (HNO3) and 1ml Hydrogen peroxide in 50 ml digestion tube. These samples were then kept in Rheological behavior and comparative analysis of nutrient composition of milk from three different breeds of goats, cows, and buffalo AbstractMilk is a considerable resource of products whose composition varies. Four components are dominant in quantitative terms: water, fat, protein and lactose; while the minor components are minerals, enzymes, vitamins, and dissolved gases. Exogenous nutrients supply in the human diet is required because of their biological significance for common life conservation. Milk is said to be the most unique and ideal class of food, because it meets the nutritional needs of the body better than any single food. This study to investigate the major constituents of milk obtained from three different breeds of cows, Goats and found in local area of village such as Farah reason. Proximate parameters -moisture, ash, crude protein and lipid were determined by AOAC methods and Rheological behavior such as viscosity analysis in milk sample and mineral element analysis by using ICPMS (Perkin Elmer) to determine calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium and magnesium respectively.
