A recent study by the Food Standards and
Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) indicated that there was a widespread
practice in the country to dilute fresh milk, before adding skimmed milk
powder, glucose and fat to disguise the adulteration. The FSSAI document added
that it was even found that some products contained detergent. Milk and Milk
Products contain essential nutrients for all ages. Therfore, ensuring the
quality and safety of dairy products offered to consumers is the mandatory
objective of FSSAI. These review
focus on the application of bacterial spores as a biosensing system for
contaminants in the milk system. milk, bieng an important component of the
human diet,its guarantee of quality is considered essential for the health and
well bieng of the community.
Now the demand for a day's consumption for a product that has a constant quality, good taste and a longer shelf life and the most important insurance for consumption will ultimately benefit milk producers by increasing consumption of the kind of high quality products. Therefore, the standards for a series of microbial and non-microbial contaminants have been first specified as a legal requirement by the Food Security and (FSSAI) Standards for milk and milk products in the India. The testing of milk and milk products for the presence of polluting agents has become a mandatory practice in the dairy industry, before dispatching the products in the global market. To date, conventional testing methods are considered gold standards and are the first choice of the quality control laboratory of each dairy industry.
