The first 'magic' cow in the world: Produces skinny milk

It is likely that many cows will soon be able to produce skim milk wandering in our pastures, according to Cath O'Driscoll in the Journal of Chemistry and Industry , a journal of the houses. The science of the Chemical Industry Association in New Zealand has discovered that some cows carry genes that give them a natural ability to produce skim milk and plan to use the information. This is to feed cows that only produce skimmed milk.

Scientists also plan to raise commercial dairy herds with special properties, the properties that are necessary to create the type of butter that can be used to spread cakes immediately after being taken out of the refrigerator. . They identified a cow named Marge carrying the genes needed to accomplish this and they said that there might be a commercial herd before 2011. The milk has a fat content of fat. very low harmonic and therefore high levels of monounsaturated and unsaturated polyunsaturated fats .

Marge , the first cow in the world discovered to be able to produce skim milk.

Experts say the discovery of these unusual cows can completely revolutionize the dairy industry. Ed Komorowski, technical director of Dairy UK, said New Zealand's method could be used to feed cows that still produce whole milk but contain only good fats, and this makes everything The opposite is that people will become interested in whole milk. For example, in the UK, only 25% of milk sold is whole milk.'In the future, whole milk can be made into milk containing only unsaturated fats - a healthy milk - that is, people will return to using pure dairy products. An important problem for dairy products is the taste, so this will be a way to bring about the benefits of taste without having saturated fat problems, ' Komorowski said.

This also solves the waste problem.'If you then produce fat-free milk by genetically modifying it, that would be a very good solution to the fat removal problem later,' Komorowski said. Producing skim milk and low-fat milk (partially skimmed milk) means removing a lot of fat.

However, Komorowski notes that, although less-fat milk is healthier, it will be interesting to know how much milk the cows produce.

These unusual cows were discovered when ViaLactia biotech company looked at the milk constituents of an entire 4 million cow herd in New Zealand. The Fonterra dairy company in New Zealand has made cow milk products named Marge and they still retain its delicious taste.
