Pasteurisation = 63° for 30 minutes (batch) or 72°C for 15 seconds (HTST)

Pasteurisation kills pathogens (organisms that can make you sick) and some spoilage bacteria.

Sterilisation = 120 - 126°C for 30 minutes (in-container) or 142 - 145°C for 3 seconds (UHT)

Sterilisation kills all bacteria that is present in the product.

What is the relationship between pasteurization and disease?

The relationship between pasteurization and disease is that Louis Pasteur who created the vaccine for polio, learned that microorganisms cause disease in humans. That is the relationship between pasteurization and disease.


What is the term for boxed milk that has a long shelf-life and does not need refrigeration?

UHT = (Ultra High Temperature pasteurization and packing) P>It is called UHT milk, which stands for Ultra Heat Treated. During preparation it is brought almost to boiling point, which kills more bugs than pasteurisation, so the milk 'keeps' for longer than pasteurised milk.


What is the difference between pasteurization and sterilization?

The pasteurization is carried out for a prolonged time at around 170°F and is supposed to kill only heat susceptible organisms and their spores, while sterilization works at a temperature of 250°F and is supposed to kill all organisms.


What keeps UHT milk from going off?

UHT milk is transported more easily as no cold chain is needed. This also makes it easy to import from areas where there is a massive oversupply. It can also be stocked up and sold in times when there are milk shortages.


The difference between bacterial count of UHT milk and pasteurised milk?

UHT milk is sterilised at 142°C for 2 - 3 seconds. There should not be more than 10 bacteria per ml of product. Pasteurised milk is heat treated at 72°C for 15 seconds. There should be a maximum of 10000 bacteria per ml of product.


Can we use UHT milk for make cappuccino?

Yes, you can use UHT milk for making a cappuccino. UHT milk contains protein and is therefore capable of getting frothy.


How do you store opened uht milk?

UHT milk should be stored in a fridge (<5°C) after opening.


Milk is often pasteurized to help it stay fresh for longer. Describe the process of pasteurization and explain how it helps to preserve milk?

The process that gives the milk a longer shelf life is called ultrahigh temperature (UHT) processing or treatment, in which milk is heated to 280 degrees Fahrenheit (138 degrees Celsius) for two to four seconds, killing any bacteria in it.Compare that to pasteurization, the standard preservation process. There are two types of pasteurization: "low temperature, long time," in which milk is heated to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for at least 30 minutes*, or the more common "high temperature, short time," in which milk is heated to roughly 71C and then drastically cooled for at least 15 seconds.The different temperatures hint at why UHT-treated milk lasts longer: Pasteurization doesn't kill all bacteria in the milk, just enough so that you don't get a disease with your milk mustache. UHT, on the other hand, kills everything.Retailers typically give pasteurized milk an expiration date of four to six days. Ahead of that, however, was up to six days of processing and shipping, so total shelf life after pasteurization is probably up to two weeks. Milk that undergoes UHT doesn't need to be refrigerated and can sit on the shelf for up to six months.Regular milk can undergo UHT, too. The process is used for the room-temperature Parmalat milk found outside the refrigerator case and for most milk sold in Europe.Additional InformationIn the U.S., retailers are not packaging the milk and dating it - the dairy/processor dates the milk. I have seen HTST fluid milk coded with sell-by dates anywhere from 10 days to 2 weeks.

What is the difference between thermophilic and thermoduric bacteria?

Thermophilic bacteria have growth temperatures that range from 45C to 85C, with an optimum temperature of about 60C. Thermoduric organisms can survive at extreme temperatures, e.g. pasteurization, but cannot grow.
