The comparative microbiological shelf‐lives of skimmed, semi‐skimmed and whole milks were studied under controlled conditions. No difference in shelf‐life between the milks was observed whatever the conditions of storage or contamination. The factors that were established to affect shelf‐life, irrespective of fat content, were the presence or absence of post‐pasteurization contamination and the temperature of storage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
