High Pressure Processing of Dairy Products

  • Chapter
Ultra High Pressure Treatments of Foods

Part of the book series: Food Engineering Series ((FSES))

Abstract

It was no accident that the pioneer of high pressure research, B. H. Hite, chose milk as the medium for his studies on the use of high pressure for food preservation (Hite, 1899). The importance of food microbiology had recently become apparent following Pasteur’s work on spoilage of wine and beer. Pasteur’s findings had led to the controlled heat treatment of milk, especially for consumption by infants, to prevent milk-borne disease. The process was first termed pasteurization in the 1880s. For Hite, working in the 1890s, it was an obvious next step to investigate the preservation of milk by high pressure.
