This pilot-scale study evaluated pulsed electric field (PEF) processing of low-fat milk inoculated with E. coli, S. cerevisiae, or L. brevis. At 10 kV/cm and 200 kJ/L total pulse energy, the study reports multi-log microbial reductions, with >5-log reductions during storage at 200–250 kJ/L and slow regrowth over 15…
