Abstract:

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationships between milk composition and milk coagulation properties in Bulgarian Murrah buffaloes. The study comprised data from analysis of milk samples from 476 Bulgarian Murrah buffaloes reared in three Bulgarian farms. The major part of buffaloes /194/ belonged to the class with RCT within the range 11.3-18 min, characterised with milk fat to protein ratio of 1:1.23.The tendency with respect to milk fat content showed that as milk fat increased, rennet coagulation time became shorted while curd firmness increased. The trend of milk protein confirmed that the effect of increased milk protein content was towards reduction of rennet coagulation time and increased curd firmness.

Keywords: Bulgarian Murrah buffaloes, Buffalo milk, Milk coagulation property (MCP), Curd firming time (K20 min), Curd firmness  (А30 mm), Rennet coagulation time (RCT, min).
