Vitamins are bio-active materials and essential elements in our body but some of them are very low in milt Various vitamin-fortified milks are developed by the help of milk processing technology. However, heat treatments can affect vitamins contents in milk. Total loss of vitamins during the UBT(ultra high temperature) treatment was investigated. UHT treatment caused 60∼70% loss for vitamin C, and 30∼40% loss for vit. D3 and vit. E which are well-known as heat stable materials. On the contrary, degradation of water-soluble vitamins is relatively very low in the capsule-coated state. The capsule could reduce the loss of vitamins by protecting vitamins from the degradation factors such as heat, oxygen, lights etc. The fortification method using capsule can be thought as a new way to reduce the loss of vitamins during milk processing. Further study about heat treatment time and temperature, and capsule coating and materials will be required to minimize the loss of vitamins in milt.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality characteristic of cholesterol free milk helping the reduction of serum cholesterol. Cholesterol free milk stored at $10\pm1^{\circ}C$ was evaluated with general analysis, stability, cholesterol, microorganism, aflatoxin $M_1$, antibiotic, antibacterial agent, color, and sensory evaluation. Animal fat contents were significant (p<0.05), but normal values. Quality characteristics of alcohol test, freezing point, and somatic cell count were general milk data with stability. Cholesterol content, microorganism, and aflatoxin MI were not detected. Also antibiotic and antibacterial agent residues were not detected by Parallux, Charm II, TTC II, and Eclipse method. Color of CFM1 was significant, while CFM2 was similar with conventional milk. Compared to control milk made by conventional way, QDA scores of color and mouthfeel in CFM1 were significantly different, whereas CFM2 did not show any significant. These Quality characteristic results suggested that health-oriented cholesterol free milk would be made by food additive.

The purpose of this study was to examine the presence of Bacillus cereus, aerobic bacteria and coliforms in the raw material of infant formulas and investigate the manufacturing process in terms of microbial safety. Among ten kinds of raw infant formula material samples (n=20), Bacillus cereus appeared in two (n=4). Aerobic bacteria were not detected in raw infant formula material or maximum 4.15 log CFU/g. Eleven species of aerobic bacteria were isolated and 76% of them were Sphingomonas paucimobilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Rhizobium radiobactor, or Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. A Pearson's correlation analysis revealed that the most influential factors for detecting Bacillus cereus were aerobic bacteria and coliforms. In other words, when the measured values of aerobic bacteria and coliforms were higher, the possibility that Bacillus cereus would appear increased. In a regression model to predict Bacillus cereus, the rate of appearance was correlated with aerobic bacteria and coliforms, and its contribution rate for effectiveness was 86%. Improving microbial quality control by pasteurization, spray dry, popping and extrusion resulted in a decrease in the numbers of Bacillus cereus, aerobic bacteria and coliforms in the raw materials. The results suggest that a hazard analysis and critical control point system might be effective for reducing microbiological contamination.
