Abstract The water buffalo breed known as the Murrah buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is primarily raised for its milk. It is preserved in the Indian states of Haryana and Punjab, namely in the districts of Bhiwani, Agra, Hisar, Rohtak, Jind, Jhajhar, Fatehabad, Gurgaon, and the Delhi capital city. The fat from buffalo milk also contains ketoglycerides. While β-lactoglobulin, which contains branched chain and essential amino acids as well as a retinol-binding protein that may modulate lymphatic processes, is absent from human milk, buffalo milk has somewhat more of this protein than cow’s milk and is also the primary source of whey protein. It has the ability to create antimicrobial peptides that work well against gram-positive bacteria and are released by proteolytic enzymes during trypsin-catalyzed digestion. International dairy product production is increasingly shifting to domestic buffalo as a substitute source. Buffalo milk contains a high amount of calcium, a mineral that is necessary for the development of bones. Moreover, it contains casein-derived peptides, which may promote bone health and reduce the likelihood of osteoporosis, a disorder characterized by weakening bones and an increased risk of fractures. Customers love buffalo milk because of its excellent nutritional value. It may be eaten raw or used to manufacture premium products like cheese, yogurt, ice cream, and other traditional dairy products.
