Quality assurance and grading in milk and dairy technology involve systematic processes to ensure that dairy products meet established standards for safety, quality, and nutritional value. This includes regular testing and monitoring of raw and processed milk to identify any contaminants and verify compliance with regulatory requirements. The grading of milk is typically based on criteria such as somatic cell count, bacterial load, and overall quality indicators, which play a crucial role in determining the market value and consumer acceptance of dairy products.
