ABSTRACT
The ammonia content of evaporated milk was found to increase with increasing heat treatment. Trials with dialyzed and bisulflte-treated milks have shown that ammonia production is independent of browning reaction. It was found that, of the total ammonia in milk heated at 242· F. for 15 min., 44% comes from urea, 26% from casein, and 23% from the whey proteins; the remaining 7% is attributed to dialyzable peptides and amino acids.
