ABSTRACT
This comparative study was carried
out to examine the quality of milk samples from mungbean (Vigna radiata),
pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) and soybean (Glycine max (L.) merr.). After
extraction, the three milk samples were analysed for their proximate
composition, physicochemical composition, sensoiy evaluation and microbial
loads. The result revealed a crude protein content of 21.80%, 20.75% and 25.10%
for the milk of mungbean, pigeon pea and soybean respectively. The fat content
was highest in soybean milk (12%) while mungbean milk and pigeon pea milk had
similar percentages (2.40% and 2.30%) respectively. .The moisture content was
highest for mungbean milk (7.94%), 6.21% for pigeon pea milk and 5.62% for
soybean milk. The p" level was 4.90, 4.60 and 4.85 for mungbean milk,
pigeon pea milk and soybean milk respectively. The specific gravity Was 1.03
for the three different milk samples. The total soluble solid was 0.05, 0.06
and 0.04 for mungbean milk, pigeon pea milk and soybean milk respectively. The
total titratable acidity was 0.16%, 0.15% and 0.18% for the three different
milk samples respectively. The sensory evaluation of the three milk samples
showed that they were highly acceptable for human consumption and the milk
samples were potentially good source of proteins.
