Milk, canned, evaporated, regular

Prepared by evaporating ~60% of the water content of whole cows milk prior to sterilisation. Canned.

Proximates (except ash), vitamins (except ACAR, CRYP and vitamin C) and minerals (except I) are averaged from 2 analyses in 1986/90 by AGAL (1: composite of 6 varieties- 3x Carnation and 3x Nestle- from Australia, purchased in South Australia; 2: composite of 6 varieties- 3x Carnation and 3x Nestle- from Australia, purchased from 3 outlets in South Australia) and samples of Australian regular evaporated milk, canned as reported by the ADC (1999). Carbohydrates expressed as a sum total in ADC sample. Ash, ACAR, CRYP and vitamin C were determined only in the AGAL sample. Iodine, folates, selenium, vitamin B6, tocopherols and pantothenate were derived from a composite sample of 6 purchases of canned reduced fat evaporated milk (2x Nestle Bear, 4x Nestle Carnation) in Melbourne in 2005. Fatty acid profile was imputed from regular milk purchased in Sydney in 2005.
