yoghurt
Sugar : sweetened condensed milk
Salt : various kinds of cheese, butter
H O : certain kind of cheese (Swiss and
2 2
Cheddar cheese)
Spoilage
Defects in milk due to microbial growths :
Off-flavor
Lipolysis with development of rancidity
Gas production
Fermentation to lactic acid with souring
Coagulation of milk proteins
Viscous or ropy texture
Discoloration
proteolysis
Contd…
Cold stored milk : Pseudomonas spp,
Acinetobacter spp, Alcaligenes spp, Aerobacter
spp and Flavobacterium spp
Pseudomonas spp : bitter flavor and rancidity
as well as the fruity odor (ethyl butyrate and
ethyl hexonate)
LABs : souring of milk
S. lactis var. maltigenes : malty flavor (3-
methylbutanol- break down of leucine)
Contd…
Ropiness : Alcaligenes viscolactis,
Enterobacter aerogenes, E. cloacae, Klebsiella
oxytoca, E.coli, LABs
Color changes : Blue milk : P. syncyanea ;
Yellow milk : P. synxantha ; Brown milk : P.
putrefaciens ; Red milk : S. marcescens,
Micrococcus roseus
Contd…
Butter :
Main defect : rancidity (auto-oxidation or
lipolysis by mos’)
Psychrotrophs – putrefaction, proteolysis and
fruity flavor
Other defects : surface taints and yeasty butter
Contd…
Cheese :
Cottage cheese: lipolysis and proteolysis, and
salted yolk
Contd…
Before pasteurization stabilization is done by
adding aluminium salts and adjustment of pH
Heat treatments employed to eliminate
Salmonella :
Whole liquid egg : 60°C/3.5 mins
Plain yolk liquid : 61.6°C/3.5 mins
Yolk with salt : 63.3°C/3.5 mins
Yolk with CHO : 62.2°C/6.2 mins

Use of low temperature :
Chilling storage : depends upon the
temperature and Rh
Commercial storage for 6 months or longer is
“pulp”
Temperature : -17.8 to -20.5°C
Contd…
Drying :
done in preparation of whole pulp, white, or
dry yolk
Done using : a) spray dryer and b) roller or
drum dryer
Additional treatment : removal of glucose –
rots
Green rot : Pseudomonas fluorescens
Colorless rot : Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter,
Alcaligenes and certain coliform
Contd…
Rots contd…
Black rot : Proteus spp, especially P.
melanovogenes – black coloration of yolk and
sometimes Pseudomonas and Aeromonas
Pink rot : Pseudomonas spp
Red rot : serratia spp
Molds : early growth – pin point molding ;
