Detailed explanation-1: -The main lipids in milk are fatty acids (FAs), acylglycerols, and cholesterol [1]. Milk fat contains a small quantity of odd and branched chain fatty acids (OBCFAs). However, OBCFAs appear to be differentially accumulated in adipose tissue and milk of cows [2], goats [3], and sheep [4].
Detailed explanation-2: -Goat milk is recommended for consumers who are allergic to cow milk. It contains high levels of butyric (C4:0), caproic (C6:0), caprylic (C8:0), capric (C10:0), lauric (C12:0), myristic (C14:0), palmitic (C16:0), and linoleic (C18:2) acids, but low levels of stearic (C18:0) and oleic (C18:1) acids.
Detailed explanation-3: -Palmitic acid (C16:0), a major saturated fatty acid, provides approximately 25% of all milk fatty acids [9]. The proportion of monounsaturated fatty acids is more stable than saturated fatty acids and make up about 45%–50% of breast milk during lactation [9].
