Heat Stability of Concentrated Milk Systems : Kinetics of the Dissociation and Aggregation in High Heated Concentrated Milk Systems

In his study, Joseph Dumpler proves a strong correlation between the dry matter content of the milk concentrate and the maximum temperature-time combinations for the heat treatment of concentrated skim milk without visible coagulation. The author also states that direct heat treatment is superior to indirect heat treatment for preservation of liquid milk concentrates or decontamination of concentrated milk before spray drying.
