UHT processing kills all spoilage and harmful bacteria. This extends the shelflife of the product and the product can be stored outside the fridge (unopened) for the duration of shelflife.

Why is it necessary to hold UHT milk at 170 degrees F to prevent protein denaturation?

Protein stabilisation prior to UHT heat treatment is important to ensure that proteins don't coagulate and form a sediment. If a sediment is formed during processing, the pipelines could get blocked (meaning a ever higher temperature will be needed to get the correct temperature in the product) or there might be sediment in the final product (which would not be acceptable to the customer).


Does UHT milk taste different from fresh milk?

Are uht milk and homogenized milk same thing?

UHT milk will always be homogenised, but homogenised milk is not always UHT treated. UHT is a heat treatment applied to kill spoilage organisms and extend shelflife. Homogenisation is a process of breaking up large globules of butterfat into many smaller pieces of equal size. This prevents the butterfat from settling out of the milk and creating a cream layer on top of the milk.
