Got (fresh) milk? Preserving milk using energy efficient pulsed electric field processing

Tuesday, March 24, 2015 - 12:00 in Physics & Chemistry

High voltage, short pulsed electric fields selectively damage cell membrane directly killing the contaminating bacteria by a process known as electroporation. Once applied multiple times, this process prevents bacteria proliferation in milk during storage, researchers say.
