Abstract
Chemical Composition of the White Cheese Produced at Household Level in Dueim Area, White Nile State, Sudan
The present study aimed to determine chemical composition of Jibna-beida produced at small scale-level in Dueim city, the largest market of Jibna-beida in Sudan. The results showed that the protein content of cheese ranged from 14.17 ± 0.058% to 15.73 ± 0.150%, with an average value of 14.57%. Statistically, no significant differences (P ≥ 0.05) in protein of collected cheese samples were found.
