Regarding milk producing, it is well known that processing and packaging are the two equally important operational phases. Packaging is the last, but definetly not the less important phase. Various automation strategies are constantly being utilized in every phase of processing, packaging and production/use of new packaging materials. The most suitable packaging will provide adequate properties to pack liquid milk and dairy products which have an important role to prolonged product shelf life. Temperature and moisture are important parameters which affect the shelf life of packaged milk and dairy products, due to their effect on the bacterial growth especially in fermented milk products. The aim of this review article is to introduce advantages and disadvantages and principles of packaging methods and materials correlated to shelflife of dairy products.

Introduction. The article presents data on the role of milk and dairy products, including fermented milk products, in the human diet and reflects their important role in providing the body with proteins having a high essential amino acid content. In addition to all health benefits of milk, fermented dairy products have dietary and medicinal properties while their digestibility is higher than that of milk. Objective. To demonstrate the role of fermented milk products in human nutrition and benefits of fermented milk products enriched with probiotic microorganisms for preventive nutrition in the microbiocenosis of the gastrointestinal tract. Materials and methods. The article presents an analytical review of literary sources on the role of milk and dairy products, including fermented milk products, in human nutrition and provides information on the per capita production and consumption of milk and dairy products in the Russian Federation. It also addresses the problem of dysbiosis since fermented dairy technology can pose a serious microbiological risk related to favorable conditions for the growth of extraneous microorganisms coming from raw materials, starter cultures, and equipment during the production process. The absence of stringent quality standards for fermented milk products contributes to manufacturing of various counterfeit foods. Results. The article outlines the main provisions of the expert hygienic assessment of specialized food products for preventive nutrition for the purpose of their state registration on the example of fermented milk bioproducts, defines criteria for assessing the quality and safety of specialized products for dietary nutrition and requirements for technical documentation on these products, and provides the list of necessary documents for expert examination of hygiene and safety of specialized products for therapeutic and preventive nutrition. Conclusion. The permission to use novel fermented milk products as preventive nutrition foods shall be based on results of предassessing their compliance with the requirements of technical regulations of the Customs Union and the Eurasian Economic Union on the quality and safety of products and their raw materials, packaging and labeling.

An experiment was designed to monitor the durability of certain dairy products stored at proper temperatures (8?C) and elevated temperatures (14?C) within their shelf life. Samples of fermented milk products were tested during 25 days, samples of cheese spread products over 80 days, while soft white cheese samples were analyzed during a storage period of 100 days. In the defined study periods, depending on the type of product, pH and aw value of the product, as well as sensory analysis (odor, taste, color and consistency), along with microbiological safety, were investigated. The investigations were performed in accordance with national legislation. The results indicate that the products stored at 14?C showed significant acidity (lower pH value), changed sensory properties, and had an increased number of aerobic bacteria.

Milk and dairy products present an important source of essential nutrients which should be a part of human beings nutrition. While the recommended consumption of milk and dairy products is set at the level of 220 kg/person/year, the current studies show that Slovaks consume only 160 kg/person/year. One of the possibilities how to reverse this negative trend is to raise the Slovak consumers awareness of the positive impacts of yoghurts and fermented milk products on their health, as well as to made from them a so‑called trendy food. The aim of the presented paper was to determine the consumer behaviour in the purchase of yoghurts and fermented milk products produced in Slovak Republic. As the research methods were used the methods of survey and structured questionnaire consisting of 16 closed and 1 opened question (total number of respondents was 1,131 randomly selected respondents from all regions of the Slovak Republic). For a deeper analysis of the obtained results, there were set out six assumptions and ten hypotheses, which were tested with the use of Pearson’s chi‑square test, Fisher’s exact test, Cramer’s contingency coefficient and Phi coefficient. The results of the presented paper show, that despite the fact that almost 77 % of respondents said that they prefer in their purchase yoghurts and fermented milk products produced in the Slovak Republic, only 26.4 % of respondents said that they prefer the local producers of these products; exactly 44 % of respondents said that they always look for the information about the content of fat in the yoghurt they buy; more than 33 % said that they buy yoghurts and fermented milk products marked with the Quality Label “Značka kvality SK”; more than 62 % of respondents said that they purchase yoghurts and fermented milk products produced by ecological farming exclusively and rather and exactly 60.1 % of respondents said they prefer the plastic packages of yoghurts and fermented milk products. Up to the question aimed at determining which flavour consumers actually miss on the market, we have to conclude that these flavours are mostly kiwi, muesli with cranberries, chocolate with mint, coconut and banana.

Consumption is among the key determinants of milk production and profitability. The main purpose of this paper is to present the level of and changes in milk and dairy products consumption in the EU in 2004–2018. Due to changing consumer preferences, the average consumption of milk and milk products in EU countries is on an increase. In turn, Poland witnesses growth in consumption of milk for ripening and processed cheese and yogurt. In 2004–2017, per capita consumption of ice cream, cheese and powdered milk followed a downward trend. In order to examine changes in the consumption of milk and milk products, a forecast was prepared which shows that in 2018–2022, Poland will experience an increase in the average monthly consumption of milk, ice cream and cheese. On the other hand, the EU will report growth in consumption of fresh dairy products, butter, cheese, skim milk and powdered milk, and a decrease in casein consumption.

A total of 163 samples of milk and milk products (including raw milk, Damietta and Kareish cheese, hard and processed cheese, yogurt, butter and ice cream) were collected from Assiut City markets. Clostridium perfringens was detected in 45.5, 20, 30, 14.3, 20, 10, 50 and 20% of the examined samples, respectively, using SPS agar. With TSN agar, the organism was isolated from 72.7, 20, 30, 28.6, 50, 10, 50, and 30% of the samples, respectively. The mean value of the C. perfringens count using SPS agar was 53.6/ml, 40/g, 60/g, 14.3/g, 30/g, 1.4/g, 25/g and 8/ml of raw milk, Damietta and Kareish cheese, hard and processed cheese, yogurt, butter and ice cream samples, respectively, while the mean values of C. perfringens counts obtained with TSN agar were 76.4/ml, 170/g, 140/g, 42.9/g, 590/g, 2.9/g, 172.9/g, and 109/ml of examined samples, respectively. Milk and dairy products, if improperly handled, provide a means for transmission of C. perfringens to the consumer.
