The thermal stabilities of fresh milk and of 5 lots of skim-milk powder (SMP) mixed with fresh milk (SMP proportions of 40 - 90%) were determined. The skim-milk powder had a thermal stability index greater than that of fresh milk and the thermal stability of mixtures increased with increasing proportions of skim-milk powder. A limit zone was established to explain if milk can or cannot be submitted to the concentration process.
