4 Read the text and answer the questions.PasteurizationPasteurization is the process of heating a liquid, such as milk, with the aim of destroying any harmful bacteria. It is a delicate process as the heating must not change the composition of the liquid or its flavour and nutritional value. The process was devised by the French chemist Louis Pasteur in 1865. Milk, for example, is pasteurized at a temperature of 63° C (145° F) for 30 minutes. It is then rapidly cooled and then stored at a temperature which is below 10° C (50° F).

1 When was pasteurization invented? 2 What must the process not do? 3 What is the drop in temperature from the pasteurization to the cooling milk?
