The perishable nature of milk is the main problem for collection of raw milk in developing countries, especially during summer season. In this study, naturally occurring lactoperoxidase system of raw buffalo's milk was stabilized by equal proportions of 10, 20 and 30 ppm of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) and sodium thiocyanate (NaSCN) immediately after collection. The results of the quality control tests (i.e., total viable counts, titratable acidity, pH and milk stability) indicated that milk stabilized with 10, 20 and 30 ppm of H(2)O(2) and NaSCN, stored at 40C, significantly (P < 0.05) increased the shelf life of raw milk up to 8 and 16 h as compared with control, which curdled within 6 h of milking. Later on, these stabilized milk samples were assessed for the preparation of yogurt by using a mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus. A significant (P < 0.05) reduction of lactic acid production was observed and the proportions of H(2)O(2)/NaSCN increased compared with control. This effectiveness was more pronounced with 20 and 30 ppm as compared with 10 ppm. The results of organoleptic evaluation showed that yogurt prepared from 10 ppm stabilized milk got the highest score.
