Abstract:
Milk, as a highly nutritive drink,
has today become indispensable for our
daily living, and its demand continues
to increase steadily from year to year
for consumption by general households,
hospitals and schools.
Milk available on the market may be
obtained in the form of plain milk that
is simply pasteurized, processed milk
that is added with vitamins, minerals
or other nutrients, or in a mixture with
fruit juice, coffee, chocolate or other
ingredients. Whatever the form in which
milk is available, the basic processes
involved in its preparation are generally
the same, the essential difference lying
in the processes preceding pasteurization.
