Milk substitute

摘要

A milk substitute suitable for feeding young mammalian animals in the form of an unreconstituted powder, containing more than 10% casein, is given an extended storage life following reconstitution by the presence of a pH-responsive preservative, such as propionate, an edible acid, such as malic acid, which generates a pH in the milk substitute immediately after reconstitution in the range 6 to 5.2, and optionally a water-soluble phosphate.
