한국시판우유의 Lactulose 함량 및 Calcium, Ascorbic Acid의 이용성 관한 연구

Lactulose Content and Availability of Calcium and Ascorbic Acid of the Commercial Milk Products in Korean Market

In order to investigate heating rate of commercial milk products in korean market, lactulose content and availability of calcium and ascorbic acid were measured. The pH range for raw and commercial milk was 6.5-6.75, and protein content was 2.5-3.13%. The acid degree value (。SH)showed between 5.3 and 7.1. There were no differences in pH, protein and acid degree among 3 types of milk. The portion ionic Ca content in UHT-milk(32.4%) and pasteurized milk (27%) increased significantly in comparison with raw milk (4.6%). Pasteurization led to loss of 20% ascorbic acid, and losses of UHT-treatment are approximately twice as high. Significant differences of lactulose content between UHT milk and pasteurized milk were observed. Some of UHT milk products showed very high value of lactulose content like sterilized milk. It is well known that the stress caused by indirect UHT treatment is slightly higher compared with the direct process. The results in this experiment suggested that most of UHT milk in korean market may be treated by indirect UHT method. In oder to keep the adventages of milk component, the heating methods of milk have to be reconsidered.
