Kits and Formulations
Adulteration Detection Kit
NDDB has developed a ready-to-use kit for the detection of adulterants in milk. The kit has been available in the market for over a decade and is available in three pack sizes, each suited for specific use at household, dairy cooperative society and dairy plant levels.
The test procedures are simple and rapid and results can be interpreted by comparing the colours developed immediately after addition of the test reagents to the milk. It can be used by unskilled persons with little or no training.
Cleaning-cum-Sanitisation Formulation
NDDB has developed a single-stage cleaning-cum-sanitising detergent formulation for manual cold cleaning and sanitisation of open type bulk milk coolers. This formulation performs well with hard and cold water. It also takes care of the limitations which are faced by the dairy farmers at villages such as hard water, unavailability of hot water and lack of awareness about using chemicals. Apart from cleaning, it also disinfects the surfaces of tanks and equipment, thus maintaining the microbiological quality of milk received at the dairy dock.
Ecological sensitivity of water bodies has also been taken care of as the formulation is pH neutral.
