Abstract: Background: The economic situation in developing countries has made the supply of milk powder very difficult and unprofitable.Consequently, populations are increasingly resorting to substitute products including soy milk. The objective of this study is to highlight the microbiological, physico-chemical and organoleptic quality of soy milk produced from three varieties of soy acclimated in Benin. Materials and Methods: Soy milk was extracted from each variety after soaking and de-husking then heated to boiling before being filtered. Microbiological, physicochemical, nutritional and organoleptic analyzes were 0carried out by standard methods....
Key Word:Soy milk, processing, storage, quality
