Pasteurization, also known as pasteurization, is based on its inventor, French biologist Louis? Pasteur. 1862, Pasteur invented a disinfection method that can kill germs in milk without affecting the taste of milk, that is, pasteurization.
In a certain temperature range, the lower the temperature, the slower the bacterial reproduction; The higher the temperature, the faster the reproduction. But if the temperature is too high, the bacteria will die. Different bacteria have different optimum growth temperature and heat and cold tolerance. In fact, pasteurization is to use the characteristics of bacteria that are not very heat-resistant, and treat them with appropriate temperature and heat preservation time to kill them all. However, a small amount of harmless or beneficial bacteria or bacterial spores remain after pasteurization, so pasteurized milk should be stored at about 4℃, and it can only be stored for 3 ~ 16 days at most.
