Summary

Concentration of milk results in a considerable increase in retention of fat by the rennet curd formed under conditions of disturbance. The fat retention property is not conferred by concentration per se but by some effect, probably involving surface phenomena, associated with the process.

Changes in composition of the fat globule membrane due to incorporation of milk protein accompany the improvement in fat retention. It is suggested that casein bound firmly to the globule during the concentration process, forms strong links with the coagulated micelles of the curd.
