Characterization of physicochemical composition, microbiology, sensory evaluation and microscopical attributes of sweetened condensed milk Ísis Rodrigues Toledo RENHE1, Danielle Braga Chelini PEREIRA1, Jaqueline Flaviana Oliveira de SÁ1, Marcelo Cerqueira dos SANTOS1, Vanessa Aglaê Martins TEODORO2, Fernando Antônio Resplande MAGALHÃES1, Ítalo Tuler PERRONE3*, Paulo Henrique Fonseca da SILVA2 Abstract An analysis of nine sweetened condensed milk brands allowed for the identification of statistically significant difference in moisture, water activity (aw), soluble solids, percentage of protein, lactose crystals size, viscosity and in sensorial attributes of texture, characteristic flavor and flour texture. Relevant correlations between the composition and sensorial attributes were determined. Eighty percent of the samples presented of yeast from
