RAPID TEST KITS AND METHOD FOR QUALITATIVE & SEMI-QUANTITATIVE DETECTION OF ADULTERANTS IN MILKABSTRACT:The invention relates to the rapid test kits and method for qualitative & quantitative detection of adulterants in milk. It particular, it relates to the development of paper based strips as test kits for qualitative & semi-quantitative detection of adulterants in milk. It more specifically relates to the development of efficient dry paper based strips as test kits for the qualitative & semi-quantitative detection of five major adulterants such as starch, soap/ detergent, neutralizers, hydrogen peroxide and urea in the milk (market milk). It also relates to the development of a simple method for the qualitative & semi-quantitative detection of five major adulterants such as starch, soap/ detergent, neutralizers, hydrogen peroxide and urea in milk by dry paper based strips as test kits.
