Furthermore, drying leads to stmctures usually differing from those of the initial humid product. This can be a disadvantage, but it can also offer a new benefit, as for example the porous structure of mashed potato flakes, crispy granulates for breakfast cereals, instant dry milk powder, and so on. The drying process can, therefore, also be considered as a controlled texturing operation, a source of innovative and easy-to-use products. 

Standards and definitions for whole milk powder, partiy skimmed milk powder, and skimmed milk powder have been set by WHO. This standard apphes exclusively to dried milk products as defined, having a fat content of not mote than 40 mol %. 

Production. The main difference in the production of sweet and milk chocolate is that in the production of milk chocolate, water must be removed from the milk. Many milk chocolate producers in the United States use spray-dried milk powder. Others condense fresh whole milk with sugar, and either dry it, producing milk cmmb, or blend it with chocolate Hquor and then dry it, producing milk chocolate cmmb. These cmmbs are mixed with... 

Variety of biochemical composition and physical features of milk, as well as compound forms of mineral components foreordain necessity to develop the analytical procedures, in which initial sample state suffers minimum change. Absence of dried milk reference standai ds (RSMs) is an obstacle to use nondestructive XRF for solving the given analytical task. In this communication results of nondestmctive x-ray fluorescence determination of Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Zr in dried milk powders of limited mass (less than 2 g), obtained with using plant RSMs to calibrate, ai e discussed. 

Milk is converted in the creamery and associated factories to whole or market milk, skimmed milk, creams, hutters, cheeses, dried milk, whey, yoghurts, hutter oil, condensed milk, milk powder and ice cream [46].

The surfaces included PLL, polystyrene, epoxy-terminated polyethylene glycol (PEG) or dendrimer slides, various amine-derivatized surfaces, and nitrocellulose-coafed slides. All proteins were printed in PBS, rinsed in TBS, and then blocked in 3% nonfat dry milk powder dissolved in TBS-0.1% Tween-20. A final rinse in TBS was performed prior to incubation. While no attempt was made to optimize print buffer or blocking conditions for each of the selected surfaces, if was apparenf fhaf wifh fhe exception of activated polystyrene, most chemistries performed af abouf fhe same levels, i.e., within two- to threefold af saturation. 

Milk protein products. As indicated in Table 1, the food industry is placing major emphasis on the production and utilization of milk protein products in a wide variety of formulated food products (20,21,22). Although nonfat dry milk (NFDM) and whey powder are major milk protein ingredients in formulated foods, casein and whey protein concentrates, which contain their proteins in a more highly concentrated and functional form, are essential for certain food product applications, such as those products that require the proteins as an emulsifier agent. Additional details on the processing methods and conditions used to produce the various milk protein products are available (23). 

Dried milk and whey. Lactose is the major component of dried milk products whole-milk powder, skim-milk powder and whey powder contain c. 30, 50 and 70% lactose, respectively. Protein, fat and air are dispersed in a continuous phase of amorphous solid lactose. Consequently, the behaviour of lactose has a major impact on the properties of dried milk products. 

An ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) allows for rapid screening and quantification of the presence of an antigen in a sample (Fig. 5-28b). Proteins in a sample are adsorbed to an inert surface, usually a 96-well polystyrene plate. The surface is washed with a solution of an inexpensive nonspecific protein (often casein from nonfat dry milk powder) to block proteins introduced in subsequent steps from also adsorbing to these surfaces. The surface is then treated with a solution containing the primary antibody—an antibody against the protein of interest. Unbound antibody is washed away and the surface is treated with a solution containing antibodies against the primary antibody. These secondary antibodies have been linked to an enzyme that catalyzes a reaction that forms a colored product. After unbound secondary antibody is washed away, the substrate of the antibody-linked enzyme is added. Product formation (monitored as color intensity) is proportional to the concentration of the protein of interest in the sample.

Another possible explanation is that in artificial feeding of infants in Britain dried milk powder is predominantly used. In the United States canned evaporated milk is much more popular. Sinclair (S5) states that the essential fatty acid content of dried cow s milk is lower than that of liquid cow s milk and has put this forward as a possible etiological factor. Yet in Britain idiopathic hypercalcemia has occurred in infants who have never received dried milk powder. 

Potato protein dry matter content should be —90% in order to produce a balance between microbiological deterioration, energy consumption and fine powder content. The protein content of the dry matter is —85% and the bulk density is —550kg/m3. Potato protein contains a high amount of protein, as compared to fishmeal, milk powder and soy protein. Also, the amount of important amino acids, such as lysine, methionine and cystine, is relatively high. Potato protein is mainly sold as cattle feed.

Havelaar and co-workers [16] following studies launched by Pike et al. [51] have studied the applicability of the Arrhenius law for microbe stability in spray-dried milk powder. They have adapted the theory to the particular situation of microbial decay. 

It would be too tedious to go into details of the production of BCR CRMs for microbiological testing. The studies and detailed procedures have been published elsewhere [26]. As already mentioned the selected strains are first stabilised in spray-dried milk powder by a long storage at cool temperatures (-20 C) for sometimes several years. Then a fraction of this mother batch is mixed with sterile milk powder down to a level of contamination close to the target level. Usually, after the preparation of the diluted milk powder, a destabilisation of the population is noticed and the material is left for a longer period at low temperatures to reach again a stable contamination level. After...
