PASTEURISATION FOR MOTHERS' MILK facilitates the retention of immunological factors otherwise destroyed by high temperature treatments and is also known to eliminate the HIV (aids) virus.

The pasteurisers comply with the NHS National Institure for Health & Clinical Excellence guidelines for the establishment and operation of Human Milk Banks. In particular the requirements for rapid cooling defined as the milk temperature drop to 25°C in less than 10 minutes, with a resultant temperature of < 4°C within the pasteurisation cycle and validated accordingly. This should be achieved before transferring to refrigeration.

The S90 TES/S180 TES represent the latest generation of Infant Feed Pasteurisers, co-invented by Professor JD Baum and developed by DJ Colgate with valuable input from Neonatologists, Microbiologists and Dieticians, which have undergone continuous research and development from the early 1980’s. New features include: Milk temperature and not the bath temperature display during the entire cycle. Mixed bottle capacity, now 130ml and 250ml can be pasteurised in the same cycle, a separate bottle warming facility as standard and a remote controlled automatic wireless logging system is also available. Pasteurisers are in use in Children’s Hospitals, Special Care Units and Central Milk Banks throughout the UK, Europe and world-wide.

Probably the most important new development from STERIFEED is the induction sealed cap closure for storage bottles, providing absolute security during pasteurisation and transportation up to the point of use.

Used in conjunction with the STERIFEED Data Logger, batch codes provide confirmation that the bottle has been pasteurised in accordance with published medical standards identifying source, formula or donor.

The safety seal will prevent even minute volumes of water diluting the milk during pasteurisation and cooling. The seals feature a tab to avoid touching the neck of the bottle when removing the tamper evident foil seal.

The above method now answers many doctors apprehension regarding the professional handling of pasteurised breast milk. There is no additional operational cost and only a marginal increase in the cost of the containers. There is a one off capital cost for the STERIFEED Induction Sealer.

Unlike some other pasteurisers on the market, the Sterifeed Pasteurisation system has a data logger which records the key milk temperature and not the water bath temperature.

The Sterifeed data logger does not require a direct connection to a PC. The data logger comes with an installation disk, which when installing the programme to the PC, automatically selects the correct instruction language from the PC. Once the disk has been installed the data logger can be started via a USB cable. This can then be disconnected from the PC and connected to the bottle probe to be place in the pasteuriser.

The data logger takes a reading of the milk temperature for every minute the milk is in the pasteuriser. The data logger also records the time and the date of the cycle. Once the pasteurisation cycle is complete the information can be downloaded via the USB to the PC. This gives a permanent record of the satisfactory treatment of every batch. The Sterifeed data logger enables the customer to have data verification and proof of treatment for all milk or formulae pasteurised with instant data retrieval.

The data can also be printed in either graph view or list format so that proof of treatment can be clearly read. The data can also be sent electronically.

By popular demand Sterifeed has recently launched a 120ml and 240ml glass bottle. Glass bottles are sometimes a preferred option, due to concerns surrounding BPA problems.

Glass bottles are viewed as the safest option for a chemical free bottle. Glass has the purity of structure that makes any interaction with the stored liquid impossible.

Glass bottles also have the great advantage of preserving a certain temperature for a longer period of time. They do not dilate when it is too warm or shrink when exposed to lower temperatures.

Made from clarified polypropylene, these are strong rigid bottles with accurate graduations suitable for pasteurisation & freezing. Bottles can be re-used by using a bottle washer with a disinfectant cycle.

What makes polypropylene environmentally friendly?

Cup-feeding is most appropriate for premature babies. Reasons for its use with preterm babies include:
