| The quality of pasteurized cream which was packed and covered either loosely or by machine sealed covers , and stored at different temperatures (5,21,32 and 52 C) for 10 days . The pH ranges of cream covered loosely during storage periods were (6.61-6.82) , (4.27-5.85) , (3.55-5.12), (4.4-4.39) ; acidity (0.12-0.19) , (1.30-0.40), (0.88-0.90) , (1.21-0.95) ; total bacterial counts (15-195) , (1×106 -9×1015), (12×108-1×1020) , (75-1×103) cell /gm ; coliform (zero) , spore former bacteria (zero) ; (0-12), (0.27), (0.54) cell /gm ; mold and yeast (0-5), (1-7) , (zero) , (0-4) respectively with retention of good quality of cream during storage at 5C for 10 days . These variations were less in cream sealed by machinery with retaintion of good quality of cream during storage at 5C for 10 days and at 21 C for 2-3 days . |
