The experiment was conducted to develop the chocolate-flavored soy dahi and find the accepted level of soymilk that should be added to milk to produce chocolate-flavored dahi. Therefore, four distinct kinds of dahi designated T₀ (control, 100% cow milk), T₁ (75% cow milk and 25% soy milk) and T₂ (50% cow milk and 50% soy milk) and T₃ (25% cow milk and 75% soy milk) were prepared by partially substituting cow milk to soy milk. Each variety also contained 1.5% cocoa powder. A panel of professional judges assessed the sensory (organoleptic) properties of the produced samples. The physical study's findings revealed that the overall organoleptic (i.e., smell and taste, body and texture, color and appearance) scores of dahi of kinds T₀, T₁, T₂, and T₃ varied significantly (P<0.01) from one another. According to the findings of the chemical test, the soy milk addition considerably lowered the amount of fat, acidity, total solids, and minerals while dramatically increasing the amount of moisture and protein (P<0.05). The growth of lactic acid bacteria is considerably better, however, it gradually reduces with the higher Addition of soy milk to cow milk. Based on the findings, it was concluded that soy milk could substitute milk by 25%, producing dahi that may be almost as good as that made only with milk and cocoa powder.

The farmers of our country mostly depend on chemical pesticides for crop protection due to the scarcity of competent pesticide alternatives and enough knowledge of safe pest management. As a result, there is a great possibility to remain residues in the harvested crops. Keeping this view, this study was conducted to analyze organophosphorus pesticide residues in yard long bean collected from five local markets of Mymensingh district of Bangladesh. The collected samples were carried to the Pesticide Analytical Laboratory, Entomology Division of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Gazipur on the same sampling day. The collected samples were analyzed using Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe (QuEChERS) extraction technique and Gas Chromatography (GC) coupled with Flame Thermionic Detector (FTD). Among the 30 samples of yard long bean, 3 samples (10% of the total samples) contained residue of quinalphos, of which 2 samples contained quinalphos residue above MRL. This study reflects the overall scenario of pesticide residue remain in the harvested yard long bean collected from local markets of Mymensingh city. Therefore, monitoring of pesticide residues in vegetables should be strengthened.
