Direct information on the ancient use of protein materials (cereal flours, animal blood, milk, and egg whites) for cosmetic purposes has come to us from all great ancient civilizations Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Rome, China, and India (1), but the use of proteins for skin and hair care probably antedates recorded history. Traces of the remote self-beautification practices are still found from the residual primitive societies surviving on our planet. They tell us about the instinctive and empirical use of those protein substances which, after all with no capital modifications, are currently used and appreciated in modem cosmetology. For example, the migrant Eritrean shepherds of the Habab tribe still use, almost as unique cosmetic material, camel milk to clean the skin and hair, the Ainu fishers on the island of Hokkaido prepare facial masks with soy flour, the Badui tribe of Java treat hair with packs of rice flour and milk (2).

Although cow s milk (whole, lowfat, skim, whey, cream, nonfat dry milk, or buttermilk) generally is used for manufacturing cheese in the United States, a small quantity of ewe s and goat s milk is also used (USDA 1978). Certain other countries use milk from camels, asses, mares, buffaloes, and reindeer, in addition to ewes and goats, to make cheese.

The range of fat content in the milk of different animal species varies widely (Table 1.16). The milk of the cow, human, goat and camel have a low fat content. The milk of the buffalo and sheep have values that are a little higher, whereas the fat content of the milk of the rabbit and seal is much...

The chain lengths of all but three of the a-lactalbumins, considered in Section B, are 123 residues. One, rat a-lactalbumin, has a chain extension of 17 residues, giving 140 residues total. In their nucleotide sequence study Qasba and Safaya (1984) concluded that this extension arises from a T-to-G base change in the termination codon. Two sequences have fewer than 123 residues Rabbit has 122 residues and red-necked wallaby has 121 residues. The majority of the mammalian lysozymes (human, baboon, and equine milk rat urine and camel, pig 3, and langur stomach) have 130 residues. Bovine, caprine, and deer stomach lysozymes have 129 residues. Although pig stomach lysozyme 3 has 130 residues, two of its variants (1 and 2) have 128... 

The dromedary, or Arabian one-humped camel (Camelus dromedarius) is a species native to the deserts of either or both Asia and northern Africa, although today it only occurs in domestication. This species has a single, large, fatty hump on its back, and it can tolerate extremely dry conditions. Dromedaries are used as pack and riding animals, and as sources of meat, milk, and hides. 

An estimated total of 1.4 million metric tons of milk is produced in Ethiopia from an estimated population of 4.6 million cows, 9.3 million goats, 3 million ewes and 0.15 million camels. On a national scale, the per capita milk consumption is estimated at 19 to 30 kg per annum. A recent survey undertaken by the Addis Ababa Agricultural Bureau shows that there are a total of 5,167 small, medium and large dairy farms in and around Addis Ababa city. The total milk production from these dairy farms amounts to 34,649,450 liters per annum. Of this, 73% is sold, 10% is left for household consumption, 9.4% goes... 

T. gondii via tachyzoite is probably not significant epidemiologically and occurs only infrequently (Tenter, 2009). Tachyzoites of T. gondii have already been detected in body fluids such as saliva, sputum, urine, tears, semen, and milk of several intermediate hosts, including sheep, goats, cows, and camels (Tenter et al., 2000). 

Several milk fats have recently been investigated using the combined Ag -TLC/GC technique, including milk fat from cows (24,25,26,32,97,123,124), goats (123,125), ewes (123), camel (126), and human milk (115,118). This method has also been applied to the analysis of the alkyl chain of plasmalogenic lipids from sheep heart that showed a similar profile to the trans- % isomers present in sheep fat (127). 

There are different categories of foods meat (fleishig) and dairy (milchig dairy and all dairy products derived thereof. The milk cannot be from a nonkosher animal, e.g., a camel or pig), neutral (parve or pareve,) and unacceptable (traif, nonkosher). Parve products can be used in either meat- or milk-based foods, but meat and dairy can never be mixed. Also, although fish as defined above is considered parve, it cannot be mixed with meat. This classification is done by a rabbi. 

MILK ALLERGY. Although the word milk ordinarily means cow s milk, it also applies to milk from any mammal, including human milk and goat s milk. Also, in various parts of the world, milk is obtained from ewes, buffalos, mares, yaks, camels, and reindeers. 

Milk and milk products. In the United States, Canada, and some other countries, cows provide most of the milk. But in southern Europe and the Middle East, the goat furnishes much milk. In Asia, sheep are often milked. People in India drink buffalo milk, and Eaplanders enjoy reindeer milk. The yak furnishes milk in Tibet, the Arab herdsmen milk camels, and mares are milked for human food in different parts of the world. Erom milk, countless forms of cheese have been developed in many countries. 

Palmitoleic acid is commonly found at low levels in animal and plant tissues (Gunstone, 1994). It is present in most fish oils at levels of around 10% (w/w) of total fatty acids. In animal depot fat, the level of palmitoleic acid varies between 3% and 10%, depending on location and animal species. In human and animal milk, the proportion of palmitoleic acid, together with other 16 1 isomers, is typically 2-6%, with exceptionally high levels found in grey seal milk (16%) and camel colostrum (14%) and milk (10%) (Gorban and Izzeldin, 2001).
