Title:

System for Detection of Adulteration in Milk
Value Proposition:

The system is capable of detecting adulterants such as urea, salt, detergents, boric acid, caustic soda, Lye (NaOH), soda, hydrogen peroxide and many more unknown adulterates in raw milk. A novel voltammetric system for detection of adulteration in genuine milk with synthetic milk is described in which the measurement of current response is performed on a single working electrode during the voltage sequence with the measurement procedure.
Summary Application:
  • Milk collection Centers at Village, Tahsil and district levels (Bulk Milk Cooling Centers)
  • Sweet Makers
  • Residential Colonies
  • Enforcement agencies
Advantages:
  • Portable and user friendly system
  • Electrochemical detection
  • Low cost system and Green technology
  • Measurement time: 40-45 Sec.
  • Minimum Detection level
Commercialization Status: Already Commercialised
