• Milk Flavors
(Continued fiom page 1)
uses foi milk and othei faim
pi oducts
Milk, the blandest of all
bevei ages except water, is
highly susceptible to change
or loss m flavor The Penn
State researcheis have shown
in previous work that at least
part of the reason is that
some of the milk’s fatty com
ponents have not yet reached
a stable state at the time of
secretion. These unstable com
ponents 'produce substances
known as lactones and methyl
ketones that cause coconut
like and “stale” flavors to de
velop in the milk
The scientists will seek
methods of determining quan
titatively the capacity of milk
fats to prodhice lactones,
methyl ketones, and their pre
cursors, and Will determine
how this capacity is affected
by season, feed, breed, and
stage of lactation By radio
active tracers, they will try
to establish whether all or
part of these off-flavor sub
stances and their precursors
are formed in the mammary
gland of the cow. ,
The work will >be conchiet
ed over a four-year period
under the direction of Dc.
Stuart Patton of Pennsylvan
ia State University’s Depart
ment of Dairy. Science. ARS
representative will (be Dr.
Daniel P. Schwartz of the
Dairy Products Laboratory,
