Milk is a nutritious food produced by the mammary glands of mammals
which contains essential nutrients. The ideal temperature range for the growth of
microorganism is 20°C to 40°C. If the milk is kept at the ambient temperature, the

necessary to chill the milk to 4°C immediately after milking to avoid spoilage due to
proliferation of microorganism.
