Milk is a complete food and is being served as a natural foodstuff. It is an essential part of our daily life for human body for growth. Considering precious advantages of milk to human life there are many cases of adulteration of the milk have been recorded globally. To avoid the adulterated milk and to quantify the traces of adulterants from milk are the major challenges of today�s era. Here in, we have demonstrated the method of detection of these adulterants and quantified its concentration in milk. The adulterants have been determined by using linear and mass attenuation coefficient at various gamma ray energies. In the present study, we have prepared the adulterate the milk samples by adding different concentrations of lactose powder and sabudana powder (Starch). Further, obtained results were compared with the mass attenuation coefficient of homonised pasteurised and toned milk. The percentage of lactose powder and sabudana powder (Starch) added in to the milk were extracted.
