| Abstract | ||
| To assess the quality of raw camels', sheep's and goats' milk, the chemical composition and color were measured using computer vision systems (CVS) and conventional colorimetry as a reliable indicator. Cluster analysis was utilized to identify the similarities between the species. The findings indicate that there is a distinct difference between species. camel milk had a whiter color than sheep and goat milk, in the same order. However, colorimetry highlights a greater similarity between sheep and goat milk. The variables that were the most similar were fat, protein, a*, and b*, while composition and colorimetry were the most distinguishing, while the type of milk was the least. The colorimetric variables were highly linked to milk solids in all species, and all types of milk had an inverse relationship with lactose, pH, and L*. Moreover, there was a significant correlation between color and chemical composition for all species. CVS imaging has the capacity to estimate the technological value of milk, which demonstrates the usefulness of calorimetry for dairy manufacturers. Helping to make the quality assessment of these products easy, quick, and cost-effective is essential. | ||
