The change in the total count, acidity, tyrosine equivalent, free fatty acid levels, heat stability and organoleptic characteristics of 70 samples of pasteurised (HTST) whole milk stored at 7 and 12 deg C were studied. In addition, the shelf life and the nature of microbial agents involved in spoilage of the milk were determine. At 7 deg C, milk was mainly affected by post-pasteurisation contamination (especially Pseudomonas), with a low incidence of thermoduric psychrotrophic microflora. The major flavour defects were associated with microbial proteolytic processes. At 12 deg C, there was a higher incidence of thermoduric microflora at spoilage. The flavour was affected mainly by acid development and proteolytic activity. The thermal stability test was shown to be a possible alternative to organoleptic evaluation for determining the shelf life of pasteurised milk.
