摘要:

The ability of people to work with machines is discussed by reference to the ‘man‐machine interface’ and the design of the workplace. Attention is drawn to the four major aspects of workplace design‐displays, controls, layout and environmental factors; the characteristics of good design are described. The different types of function that are more appropriately allocated to people and to machines are listed. The requirements of an individual are also considered by applying Maslow's Theory to a person at the workplace. The techniques available for increasing job satisfaction are o

摘要:

The quality of raw blended milk going to manufacture at five creameries in southwest Scotland has been surveyed over a two‐year period. Analyses of gross composition, somatic cell count, numbers and types of bacteria present and the concentration of free fatty acid in the milk show that milk quality was of a high standard. However, extended storage of the milk at 6°C indicated that the bacteria in the milk were actively multiplying and the results showed that extended storage of milk at creameries could seriously jeopardize milk quality. The development of lipolysis on extended storage of the milks was associated with the numbers and types of bacteria present in the milk before stora

摘要:

In the milk utilization sector of the UK dairy industry, scientists and technologists are recognized as key members of the management team in factories, especially in the areas of quality control and quality assurance. Consideration is given to their role in both line and functional control of product quality. In research and development they continue to play a vital role both in the private and public sectors of the industry. In the research sector, there is an increasing degree of co‐operation and consultation between government‐funded research institutions and the ultimate users of the results of research in commercial practice. Attempts are being made to improve the identification of the needs of the industry, both long and short term, so that research effort can be channelled to meet these ne

摘要:

The main factors influencing the locations and facilities for cream processing are outlined and market needs defined. The quality and flavour of ex‐farm milk and the acceptable level of psychrotrophic bacteria is discussed and the importance of the right viscosity and consistency in cream and its keeping quality, stressed. Shelf life and the significance of refrigeration in both storage and transport is emphasized. Problems of availability and distribution and the utilization of skim milk and surplus butterfat are examine

摘要:

The effects that proposed Government legislation restricting the sale of unheat‐treated milk will have on producer‐retailers and the options open to them are examined. An appraisal of the requirements of equipment designed for on‐farm pasteurization, comments on the suitability of equipment available and a list of main manufacturers is given. Typical costs of on‐farm pasteurization using batch and HTST methods show that the preferred method is batch pasteurization except where liquid sales beyond 2,000 1/day are e

摘要:

The importance of hygiene at all stages of producing and processing milk is discussed. The value of the resazurin test to measure the cleanliness of production is questioned. With modern methods of milk production and storage the only meaningful test is the plate count, but it should be accompanied by frequent farm inspections. Pasteurized milk should have a negative coliform result (in 0.1 ml) and retail outlets should have adequate refrigeration.
