As described in section 7.8, water plays an extremely important role even in relatively low-moisture products such as butter(c. 16% mois- ture)or dehydrated milk powders(c 2.5-4% moisture). Water is the most important diluent in foodstuffs and has an important influence on the physical, chemical and microbiological changes which occur in dairy prod ucts. Water is an important plasticizer of non-fat milk solids 7.2 General properties of water Some physical properties of water are shown in Table 7. 2. Water has higher melting and boiling temperatures, surface tension, dielectric constant, heat capacity, thermal conductivity and heats of phase transition than similar molecules (Table 7.3). Water has a lower density than would be expected from comparison with the above molecules and has the unusual property of expansion on solidification. The thermal conductivity of ice is approxi mately four times greater than that of water at the same temperature and is high compared with other non-metallic solids. Likewise, the thermal dif- fusivity of ice is about nine times greater than that of water The water molecule(HOH) is formed by covalent(o)bonds between two of the four sp bonding orbitals of oxygen(formed by the hybridization of the 2s, 2px, 2p, and 2p, orbitals) and two hydrogen atoms( Figure 7. 1a). The remaining two sp' orbitals of oxygen contain non-bonding electrons. The verall arrangement of the orbitals around the central oxygen atom is trahedral and this shape is almost perfectly retained in the water molecule. Due to electronegativity differences between oxygen and hydrogen, the o-H bond in water is polar(a vapour state dipole moment of 1.84 D). This results in a partial negative charge on the oxygen and a partial positive charge on each hydrogen( Figure 7. 1b).

7 Water in milk and dairy products 7.1 Introduction The water content of dairy products ranges from around 2.5 to 94% (w/w) (Table 7.1) and is the principal component by weight in most dairy products, including milk, cream, ice-cream, yogurt and most cheeses. The moisture content of foods (or more correctly their water activity, section 7.3), together with temperature and pH, are of great importance to food technology. As described in section 7.8, water plays an extremely important role even in relatively low-moisture products such as butter (c. 16% moisture) or dehydrated milk powders (c. 2.54% moisture). Water is the most important diluent in foodstuffs and has an important influence on the physical, chemical and microbiological changes which occur in dairy products. Water is an important plasticizer of non-fat milk solids. 7.2 General properties of water Some physical properties of water are shown in Table 7.2. Water has higher melting and boiling temperatures, surface tension, dielectric constant, heat capacity, thermal conductivity and heats of phase transition than similar molecules (Table 7.3). Water has a lower density than would be expected from comparison with the above molecules and has the unusual property of expansion on solidification. The thermal conductivity of ice is approximately four times greater than that of water at the same temperature and is high compared with other non-metallic solids. Likewise, the thermal diffusivity of ice is about nine times greater than that of water. The water molecule (HOH) is formed by covalent (6) bonds between two of the four sp3 bonding orbitals of oxygen (formed by the hybridization of the 2s, 2p,, 2py and 2p, orbitals) and two hydrogen atoms (Figure 7.la). The remaining two sp3 orbitals of oxygen contain non-bonding electrons. The overall arrangement of the orbitals around the central oxygen atom is tetrahedral and this shape is almost perfectly retained in the water molecule. Due to electronegativity differences between oxygen and hydrogen, the O-H bond in water is polar (a vapour state dipole moment of 1.84 D). This results in a partial negative charge on the oxygen and a partial positive charge on each hydrogen (Figure 7.lb). Hydrogen bonding can occur between the two lone electron pairs in the oxygen atom and the hydrogen atoms of other

Water solute hydrogen bonds are normally weaker than water-water interactions By interacting through hydrogen bonds with polar groups of solutes, the mobility of water is reduced and, therefore, is classified as either constitu tional or monolayer. Some solutes which are capable of hydrogen bonding with water do so in a manner that is incompatible with the normal structure of water and therefore have a disruptive effect on this structure. For this reason, solutes depress the freezing point of water(Chapter 11).

DAIRY CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY same temperature P Due to the presence of various solutes, the vapour pressure exerted by water in a food system is always less than that of pure water (unity). Water activity is a temperature-dependent property of water which may be used to characterize the equilibrium or steady state of water in a food system(roos, 1997) For a food system in equilibrium with a gaseous atmosphere (i.e. no net gain or loss of moisture to or from the system caused by differences in the apour pressure of water), the equilibrium relative humidity(ErH) is elated to aw by ERH(%)=aw×100 Thus, under ideal conditions, erh is the relative humidity of atmosphere in which a foodstuff may be stored without a net loss or gain of moisture. Water activity, together with temperature and ph, is one of the most important parameters which determine the rates of chemical, bio chemical and microbiological changes which occur in foods. However, since w presupposes equilibrium conditions, its usefulness is limited to foods in which these conditions exist Water activity is influenced by temperature and therefore the assay tem- perature must be specified. The temperature dependence of aw is described by the Clausius-Clapeyron equation in modified form dln(au)△H (7.3) here T is temperature(K), r is the universal gas constant and AH is the change in enthalpy. Thus, at a constant water content, there is a linear relationship between log aw and 1/T(Figure 7.7). This linear relationship is not obeyed at extremes of temperature or at the onset of ice formation The concept of aw can be extended to cover sub-freezing temperatures. In these cases, aw is defined(Fennema, 1985)relative to the vapour pressure supercooled water(porscw) rather than to that of ice Po(scw porsch where per is the vapour pressure of water in the partially frozen food and p that of pure ice. There is a linear relationship between log aw and 1/T at sub-freezing temperatures(Figure 7.8). The influence of temperature on aw is greater below the freezing point of the sample and there is normally a pronounced break at the freezing point. Unlike the situation above freezing

W Due to the presence of various solutes, the vapour pressure exerted by water in a food system is always less than that of pure water (unity). Water activity is a temperature-dependent property of water which may be used to characterize the equilibrium or steady state of water in a food system (Roos, 1997). For a food system in equilibrium with a gaseous atmosphere (i.e. no net gain or loss of moisture to or from the system caused by differences in the vapour pressure of water), the equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) is related to a, by: ERH(%) = a, x 100. (7.2) Thus, under ideal conditions, ERH is the % relative humidity of an atmosphere in which a foodstuff may be stored without a net loss or gain of moisture. Water activity, together with temperature and pH, is one of the most important parameters which determine the rates of chemical, biochemical and microbiological changes which occur in foods. However, since a, presupposes equilibrium conditions, its usefulness is limited to foods in which these conditions exist. Water activity is influenced by temperature and therefore the assay temperature must be specified. The temperature dependence of a, is described by the Clausius-Clapeyron equation in modified form: (7.3) where T is temperature (K), R is the universal gas constant and AH is the change in enthalpy. Thus, at a constant water content, there is a linear relationship between log a, and 1/T (Figure 7.7). This linear relationship is not obeyed at extremes of temperature or at the onset of ice formation. The concept of a, can be extended to cover sub-freezing temperatures. In these cases, a, is defined (Fennema, 1985) relative to the vapour pressure of supercooled water (poCscw,) rather than to that of ice: where pfr is the vapour pressure of water in the partially frozen food and pice that of pure ice. There is a linear relationship between loga, and 1/T at sub-freezing temperatures (Figure 7.8). The influence of temperature on a, is greater below the freezing point of the sample and there is normally a pronounced break at the freezing point. Unlike the situation above freezing
