Summary

Cultures of Pseudomonas spp. strains P10, P12 and P15 grown in whole milk which contained ∼ 1 × 108 viable bacteria ml−1 demonstrated near linear increases in the concentration of short-chain free fatty acids and trichloroacetic acid soluble free amino groups at 20 °C, following either ultra high temperature (UHT) treatment (140 °C for 5 s) or dual heat treatments (140 °C followed by either 57, 60 or 65 °C). The dual heat treatments reduced the rates of lipolysis and proteolysis compared to the UHT treatment by up to 25-fold. The dual heat treatment utilizing 60 °C for 5 min also effectively limited both lipase and proteinase activities in raw milk culture samples which had contained either 6 × 106, 5 × 107 or 1 × 108 viable bacteria ml−1. In this system enzyme activities were reduced by up to 10-fold following dual heat treatment compared to UHT treatment alone.
