Can mothers give breast milk to their husbands?
Yes. Men have mammary glands but they are dormant and require extreme amounts of artificial female hormone in order to bring them out of dormancy.
Men can produce milk in their chests (but only with supplementation of lactation hormones). Theoretically, with these additional hormones, it is possible for men to produce milk and nurse, although I'm not sure this has been documented.
What does milk do if not stirred when heated in a micorwave?
Good quality milk will not curdle when boiled. It can be used as a test to determine how heat stable the milk is before heat treatment. Ie, if it curdles, don't use it as it would foul the equipment.
No. They may contain bacteria if not pasteurized, but not protists.
How many ounses in a gallon of milk?
There are twenty imperial ounces in a pint, eight pints in a gallon. Therefore, half a gallon is equal to 80 imperial ounces.
How do you tell if a piece is authentic milk glass?
I have a milkglass rabbit that is about 8 inches long and opens with half the body as the cover. What is it all about?
Does sweet curdling cause bloating in UHT milk?
Sweet curdling could be caused by growth of spores that were not killed during sterilisation. Bacillus cereus spores commonly causes this issue later in shelf life.
Formation of curd from milk is which reaction?
Formation of curd in milk is called 'Fermentation'.
Curd is formed when milk is pasteurised and fermented by a combination of lactic acid bacteria and a protease.
What are the ethical issues with producing milk?
Most who don't know about lactation and breastfeeding and such think that milking a cow is synonymous with torture and distress, which couldn't be farther from the truth.
However, a lot of people are concerned with how calves are taken away from their mommas a day or two after they are born so that the milk can be fed to humans. These people say (and they are right) that this goes against Mother Nature, that the calves should stay on the cow until they are big and old enough to be weaned, and the milk should be reserved for the calves, not for humans. In Nature, adult wild animals don't drink milk they drink water, so why are humans going against this?
The other concern is the way cows are treated, as they are fed corn (an unnatural diet for cattle), and kept tied up in a stall all day with no much room to move around. Dairy cows are bred to produce milk and hormones are injected or mixed in with the feed so that they produce more milk for the farmer to sell. Cows, being milked "all the time" (they're only milked for 10 months of the year, actually), break down much sooner than beef cows do and have to be sent to slaughter by the time the are around 5 to 6 years of age.
Many people think that farmers are only in it for the money and don't care about the animals, but this really isn't true. If dairy cows were tortured and mistreated, they wouldn't be giving much milk.
How much are a old glass milk bottle worth?
i have milk bottles from the shaw dairy just wondering what there worth?
What is a Fenton hobnail milk glass lamp worth?
Is it electric or oil ? How tall and what is the condition, any chips or cracks ? What style of lamp, ie gone with the wind, fairy, etc. Do you have any history on it ? The value depends on all of the criteria mentioned.
How many fluid oz in 1 gallon of milk?
Gallon US or English Gallon? There are 20 fluid ounces in a pint. An English gallon has 8 pints, but a US gallon is less than an English gallon.
You can not equate units of volume and weight directly.
1000 millilitres = 1 litre so 240 ml = 240/1000 = 0.24 litres. Simple!
How many liters of milk are in 0.5 gallons of milk?
0.25 US gallons is equal to just under 1 liter (about 0.946 liters).
Are milk cartons made of biodegradable materials?
Older milk cartons were not made of biodegradable materials. The newest milk cartons that are produced are made of biodegradable materials.
Is milk is good or bad for uric acid?
if you are asking about uric acid pains, milk acts as a pain-stopping agent, but it does not have a positive affect about stopping the actual acid pain, and it may make it worse.
if you are talking about normal function, it is healthy.

Explain the use of lactase in the production of lactose-free milk?
The compound lactase includes a series of autosomal proteins that incorporate substrate material to the final product. Lactase, being the specific enzyme to obtain energy from the material of milk. Moreover, it works as a catalyst to speed up the reaction.
Dr. Amsberry, PHD
What an absolute load of bunkum - not sure where you got your PhD !!!!
What "Dr" Amsberry should have told you is that lactase is the enzyme which is responsible for the catalytic breakdown of lactose (a disaccharide molecule) into its consituent monosaccharide parts; these being glucose and galactose.
In the manufacture of lactose-free milk a recombinant lactase enzyme (i.e. one that has been produced commercially in bacteria) is added to a bulk culture of milk which is gently heated to activate the enzymatic catalysis - eventually breaking down all of the lactose present in the milk into the glucose and galactose monosaccharides to which a lactose-intolerant person will have no adverse reaction.
What milk contains the least amount of fat?
Processed refined pork fat, also known as lard, is 99% fat by volume, with the addition of stabilizing agents, and colorants.
There are other animal products that are similar, Schamaltz, which is a flavored spread composed of blended chicken fat.
Several diary items deserve mention such as certain cheeses, and heavy cream.
Nuts can contain extremely high fat content that is vegetable in nature.
Oils, such as palm kernel oil has an extreme fat content.
Pemmican, suet and other fat based high energy foods are at the high end of the fat scale.
Seal and or whale blubber.
How much protein does milk have?
It may depend on the milk you buy and the quantity of milk in the glasd, a glass can occupy only less than 250ml of liquid so lets take it as 250 ml, 500 ml have nearly 10-14g of protein so 250 ml means 5-7gm of protien.
That really depends in your personal opinion. There are people who claim that milk is not good for you because they believe that milk is a contributor for many diseases including osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease, obesity etc. These claims mainly come from the fact that milk has a high amount of saturated fat in it and also comes from cows that have been fed high amounts of antibiotics and rGBH, which is a type of growth hormone that encourages dairy cows to produce more milk than what they are naturally capable of.
And then there's other people on the other side of the coin that say yes it is good for you, because milk is high in calcium, protein, zinc, vitamin B12, and other essential nutrients. They claim that it makes your bones and teeth strong and healthy, and it is also a part of the healthy food groups of a well-balanced diet.
The nay-sayers, who are quick to point out the number of diseases caused by milk don't see that there are a lot of other things that cause diseases that are supposedly caused by milk products. Eating too much fat naturally makes people fat and makes them more prone to disease. This is the case if too many dairy products, like cheese and ice cream are eaten every day, much more than the recommended daily serving amount. It's also the case of milk with high butter fat, like homo milk instead of 1% or skim milk (most prefer 1% or 2% over skim milk anyway): drink too much and you will indeed gain weight and be more susceptible to all the diseases that anti-milk drinkers like to list for you.
The other concern is the treatment of the cows themselves. Conventional milk produced in America is, indeed, high in antibiotics and growth hormones which also can cause illness and disease, and is certainly not something that anyone should be drinking. (This is different in Canada and most of Europe, as using growth hormones and sub-acute doses of antibiotics to dairy cows is banned in these countries). Dairy cows in America are literally genetically modified organisms (GMO's) that are designed to be milk machines, not actual living, breathing cows. When they cannot produce milk anymore they get pretty weak on their feet, most likely from osteoporosis themselves (just like with conventional layer hens who do nothing but produce eggs all their lives), and have to be forced, carried and harried onto the slaughter trucks even when they can't get on their feet anymore.
And then there's the ethical question of why humans "exploit" cows for their milk when the milk should be given to the calves instead. That in itself is an issue that should be addressed to another question, and not this one. However, it should be mentioned, as the question about using human breast milk as a source of dairy product is brought up among those anti-cow-milk users, and something that is considered unappealing to most people. But that's another question to be answered.
So is milk good for you? The question that really needs to be asked instead is do we humans need to be drinking milk? Milk is a healthy food to consume if consumed in moderation (not too much of it), and is certainly a lot healthier than junk food like fries or potato chips, or even a MacDonald's hamburger. But if we look at animals in the natural world, they are not exploiting other species for their milk. Adult animal species are weaned from drinking milk and instead rely on other food sources to get their calcium, protein, zinc, B-vitamins and other nutrients from. So why don't humans do the same? The answer to this question may be that it's only a matter that we choose not to go that route. If people don't want to drink milk, that's their choice. And if others want to continue drinking milk, that's their choice as well. The most important thing is that we need to achieve balance, instead of arguing about different view points that are obtained from either extremes, from the choice of "all or nothing." There's nothing wrong with being in the middle of the road!
Processed milk began containing differing amounts of fat during the 1950s. 1 cup (250 ml) of 2%-fat milk contains 285 mg of calcium, which represents 22% to 29% of the daily recommended intake (DRI) of calcium for an adult. Depending on the age, milk contains 8 grams of protein, and a number of other nutrients (either naturally or through fortification) including:
- Biotin
- pantothenic acid
- Iodine
- Potassium
- Potassium
- Selenium
- Thiamine
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin B12
- Riboflavin
- Vitamin D
- Vitamin K
The amount of calcium from milk that is absorbed by the human body is disputed. Calcium from dairy products has a greater bioavailability than calcium from certain vegetables, such as spinach, that contain high levels of calcium-chelating agents,] but a similar or lesser bioavailability than calcium from low-oxalate vegetables such as kale, broccoli, or other vegetables in the Brassica genus.
Hope this helps,
