Abstract - Lipolysis in refrigerated milk
Following the Symposium organised by / D F at Cork, Ireland, in March 1974 on this subject, the authors present a review of the problem of lipolysis.
They review the role of lipolytic enzymes, of co-factors such as blood plasma lipoproteins, and of the fat globule membrane on the intensity of lipolysis. The organoleptic defects caused by lipolysis in milk, butter and cheese are examined and the influence of the milking machine is recalled as an important factor in the development of lipolysis.
Finally the methods for the detection of free fatty acids and for the determination of the activity of the lipolytic enzymes are reviewed
