how pasteurization works...?
I want answer in detail
Answers
Explanation:
Pasteurization or pasteurisation is a process in which water and certain packaged and non-packaged foods (such as milk and fruit juice) are treated with mild heat, usually to less than 100 °C (212 °F), to eliminate pathogens and extend shelf life. The process is intended to destroy or deactivate organisms and enzymes that contribute to spoilage or risk of disease, including vegetative bacteria, but not bacterial spores. Since pasteurization is not sterilization, and does not kill spores, a second "double" pasteurization will extend the quality by killing spores that have germinated.

•Spoilage enzymes are also inactivated during pasteurization.
Importance of pasteurization:-
- To destroy all harmful microorganisms in milk and other foods.
- Eating unpasteurized foods can lead to fever, vomiting and diarrhea. In some cases it can lead to conditions like kidney failure, miscarriage and even death.
⭐While pasteurization doesn't kill all the microorganisms in our food, it does greatly reduce the number of pathogens so that they are unlikely to cause disease. .
