Overview of milk measurements.

MILK QUALITY PARAMETERS
Fatty acid profiling of milk Concentrations of individual fatty acids (“FAs”) with medium to very long chain-length in total fat and phospholipids; cholesterol concentration
Lipid peroxidation Concentrations of malondialdehyde (“MDA”), hexanal (“HEX”), and F2-Isoprostanes (“F2-IsoP”)
Protein oxidation Presence (yes/no) of carbonylated protein species per molecular weight class
Anti-oxidative capacity Application of Folin-Ciocalteu reagent (“FCR”) method, and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (“ORAC”; both hydrophilic and lipophilic ORAC)
Macronutrient composition Protein, lipid, carbohydrate (“CHO”), and energy density
