Milk Tests

Milk pH Test

A milk pH test shows how acidic or alkaline milk is. A raised pH can go with mastitis (an udder infection) and a falling pH with souring, but a normal pH does not rule mastitis out.

Milk Tests

Milk Clot-on-Boiling Test

In the clot-on-boiling (COB) test, a little milk is boiled to see whether it curdles. Milk that clots is unsuitable for heating or processing, often because it has started to sour.

Milk Alcohol / Alizarin Test

The alcohol test mixes milk with alcohol and watches for flakes or clots, a sign the milk is unstable and could curdle when heated. Adding alizarin, a colour dye, also hints at souring.

Milk Methylene Blue Reduction Test (MBRT)

MBRT, the methylene blue reduction test, is an indirect check of bacteria in raw milk. A blue dye is added, and the sooner it fades, the more bacteria are likely present.

Milk Resazurin Reduction Test

The resazurin test uses a blue dye to gauge bacterial activity in milk. Active bacteria turn it pink and then colourless, so the colour seen after a set time is a rough guide to hygiene.

Milk Total Bacterial Count (TBC / Standard Plate Count)

A milk total bacterial count (TBC), also called a standard plate count, counts the bacteria in milk that grow on a standard lab plate. It is commonly used to check milking hygiene and how well cow and buffalo milk is cooled.

Milk Coliform Count

A milk coliform count measures how many coliform bacteria are in raw milk. Coliforms come from dung, soil and dirty water, so a high count points to poor hygiene during milking, handling or storage.

Milk Urea (Adulteration) Test

The milk urea adulteration test checks whether urea, a common fertiliser, has been mixed into milk. Milk naturally holds a little urea, so the result is compared with that natural level.

Milk Tests

Milk Neutraliser (Sodium Bicarbonate) Test

The neutraliser test can help detect soda, such as baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), added to milk to hide sourness. Covered-up souring can let stale milk pass simple freshness checks.

Milk Salt (Sodium Chloride) Test

The milk salt test measures common salt (sodium chloride) in milk. Salt may be added to push up a lactometer reading, yet mastitis (udder infection) can also make milk saltier.

Milk Added Sugar Test

An added sugar test looks for cane sugar (sucrose) in milk, sometimes stirred in so watered milk reads richer on a lactometer. It targets sucrose, not lactose, the natural milk sugar.

Milk Added Water (Freezing Point) Test

Measuring the temperature at which milk freezes gives an estimate of added water. Milk freezes a little colder than plain water, so watering pulls its freezing point closer to water's.

Milk Antibiotic Residue Test

A milk antibiotic residue test is a rapid kit that checks milk for traces of antibiotics, such as beta-lactams and tetracyclines. Which drug groups are covered depends on the kit and is confirmed when you book.

Milk Aflatoxin M1 Test

A milk aflatoxin M1 test checks milk for aflatoxin M1, a toxin that can appear when cows or buffaloes eat feed contaminated with aflatoxin B1. It is done by ELISA or a rapid kit, and the method is confirmed when you book.

Milk Alkaline Phosphatase Test

The alkaline phosphatase test helps show whether milk was properly pasteurised. Correct heating destroys this natural milk enzyme, so finding it points to under-heating or added raw milk.

Milk Urea Nitrogen (MUN) Test

The milk urea nitrogen (MUN) test measures natural urea in milk, a by-product of protein breakdown. It reflects the feed's protein and energy balance and is not a test for added urea.

Colostrum Quality Test (Brix / IgG)

A colostrum quality test checks how rich the first milk of a cow or buffalo is in antibodies, using a Brix reading or an IgG measurement. It helps farmers and vets judge colostrum before it is given to a newborn calf.

Skin Scraping (Mange Mite Examination)

A skin scraping test checks material gently scraped from the skin under a microscope for mange mites, such as Sarcoptes and Demodex. It is used for dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes, and a negative result does not rule mites out.

Faecal Flotation Test (Worm Eggs & Oocysts)

A faecal flotation test mixes fresh faeces with a special liquid so that worm eggs and coccidia oocysts, the egg-like stage of some gut parasites, float up and can be seen under a microscope. It is used for dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.
