ICAR-NDRI Commercialises Eight Rapid Technologies to Detect Milk Adulteration
The ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute (ICAR-NDRI), Karnal, has commercialised eight rapid, paper-strip-based technologies to detect milk adulteration. Licensed to Mizala Biovet India Pvt Ltd, these patented tests identify substances like neutralisers, urea, hydrogen peroxide, and formalin within 10 minutes, some instantly. Developed through collaboration between ICAR-NDRI's Dairy Chemistry and Animal Biochemistry divisions, the tests offer superior sensitivity and are designed for use at milk collection centers by non-technical personnel to ensure early detection before processing.
