Abstract
The problem of milkstone formation together with its contribution to high bacterial counts is being attacked by a study of physical as well as chemical factors. The condition of the surface of milk equipment would be expected to influence the rate at which milkstone is deposited. The results obtained show that the relatively rough and porous surface of rubber takes on twice as much milkstone as glass, and that little or none is deposited on tygon during the given time exposure.
