Popis: | As innovative processing equipment is introduced to milk processing, it is essential to determine its effect on milk aroma, a critical factor in consumer acceptance of the final dairy product. Microfluidization is known to cause severe high-pressure homogenization of milk fat and, although severe processing is known to release undesired aromas, no information is available on the levels of the volatile compounds in milk immediately after microfluidization. We hypothesized that microfluidization would alter levels of volatile compounds in milk that may affect aroma. The concentration of 11 selected volatile compounds in raw, thermized, pasteurized, and UHT 3.0% fat milk samples were compared before and after microfluidization at 170 MPa and common 2-stage homogenization at 15 MPa. Overall, the different milk samples had similar trends in response to homogenization, although UHT milk started with lower values of nonanoic acid, and acetone and higher levels of hexanal and heptanol. In many cases, microfluidization did not significantly alter volatile levels compared with the starting milk. Heptanal was the only compound observed to increase in thermized and UHT milk, whereas nonanoic acid and acetone decreased in raw, thermized, and pasteurized milks and octanoic acid decreased in thermized and UHT milks. The highest levels of almost all of the volatiles were found in the 2-stage homogenized milk. Overall, microfluidization had minimal effect on the volatile compound profiles of milk, although sensory evaluation is needed to confirm effects on aroma and flavor. |
