Raw milk is a colloid, in which fat globules of various sizes are dispersed within a watery phase of dissolved proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, electrolytes and minerals, along with low levels of probiotic bacteria such as lactobacillus. The purpose of this pilot study is to examine whole milk – raw and processed – to look for any differences in its colloidal structure that can be seen using ...

Donor human milk has been used in the United States for 90 years, but recent advances in human milk science and laboratory techniques have led to increasing use of this resource. Pediatricians began using donor human milk in the 1900s in response to anecdotal observation that premature infants had better health outcomes when receiving their own mothers’ milk. Since then, a formalized human milk...

Raw milk in southern Ontario frequently contains Yersinia enterocolitica. The potential for transmission of this organism by cheese manufactured from unpasteurized milk was evaluated by examination of milk and cheese curd samples from cheese manufacturing plants and finished cheddar and Italian cheeses. The incidence of Y. enterocolitica was lower in cheese curd samples (9.2%) than in raw milk ...

The shelf life of pasteurized milk is limited by heat-stable proteases that undergo depolymerization, causing age gelation and bitterness. Proteolysis of milk during storage can be attributed to both native proteases and the proteases produced by bacteria, such as plasmin, which is the major native protease in milk. Ultra-high temperature (UHT) processing (>135°C for 2 s) inactivates proteases ...

the suitability of milk preserved by refrigeration and co2 addition for the manufacture of plain yoghurt using two commercial strains of lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus and streptoccocus thermophilus and probiotic yoghurt by lactobacillus acidophilus was evaluated. yoghurts (plain and probiotic) manufactured after milk pasteurization, from fresh and refrigerated co2 treated samples (p...

2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) is a dye largely used for enumeration of microbial colonies in solid culture media, being a key component of the dry rehydratable film system used for microbiological analysis of food. This dye is colorless in the oxidized form and red when reduced by microorganisms, due to formation of formazan. In this study, TTC was added to Plate Count Agar (PCA) fo...

OBJECTIVE The major aim of this trial was to evaluate the potential interaction of fresh or pasteurized yoghurt intake with lactose intolerance on calcium assimilation by means of the stable isotope 43Ca as a tracer. METHODS Forty volunteers (age: 32 +/- 7 years) participated in this parallel simple blind study (20 of them with moderate lactose intolerance). The protocol included the intake o...

Abstract Milk was food that composed of various nutritional values with a balanced proportion milk weakness affects the shelf life so it required pasteurization process by adding kasumba turate ( Cartamus tinctorius L ) to as natural colouring agent and preservative. To extend life, this study aimed determine effect organoleptic quality (color, aroma thickness) pasteurized addition at different...
