Summary

Skim milk was heated rapidly to 130 °C in stainless steel tubing, and was then held at this temperature for periods of up to 1 h in a stainless steel holding vessel. Samples taken at intervals during the holding period were analysed for cations, inorganic and organic phosphate and protein in the total sample and in the supernatant after centrifugation at 60 500g. The cation and total phosphate (organic+inorganic) contents of the sedimentable material remained constant throughout the heating, although the caseins became extensively dephosphorylated. Dephosphorylated protein dissociated from the casein micelles during the first 20 min of heating, after which its concentration in the serum began to decrease, perhaps indicating the onset of the heat coagulation reaction.
