Summary

YOGURT SAMPLES WITH INITIAL PH 4.5 + OR -0.1, 4.2 + OR -0.1 AND 3.9 + OR -0.1 WERE PREPARED UNDER LABORATORY CONDITIONS AND STORED AT 277 AND 280 K (4 AND 7 DEG C) FOR 3 WK. PH AND TITRATABLE ACIDITY WERE MONITORED WEEKLY. RESULTS INDICATED THAT SAMPLES WITH THE LOWEST INITIAL ACIDITY (HIGH PH) SHOWED THE HIGHEST INCREASE IN ACIDITY DURING REFRIGERATED STORAGE (PH 4.59-4.15). SAMPLES WITH HIGH INITIAL ACIDITY (LOW PH) REMAINED FAIRLY STABLE (PH 3.82-3.77). ACIDITY CHANGES DURING REFRIGERATED STORAGE WERE MORE PRONOUNCED AT 280 K COMPARED TO 277 K.
