Explanation / Answer

Normal boiling of milk to kill the fair amount of disease-causing microbes present in raw milk is nothing but a scientific process known as pasteurisation.

NO, initially I was not aware that this is a scientific process because it's a normal practice that we do on raw milk to protect it from curding.

Yes, various steps of pasteurisation are:

High-Temperature-Short-Time Treatment (HTST) -- this process uses higher heat for less time to kill pathogenic bacteria. For example, milk is pasteurized at 161°F (72°C) for 15 seconds.

Low-Temperature-Long-Time Treatment (LTLT) -- this process uses lower heat for a longer time to kill pathogenic bacteria. For example, milk is pasteurized at 145°F (63°C) for 30 minutes.

Yes, the process is very helpful as it kills pathogenic bacteria and has helped reduce the transmission of diseases, such as typhoid fever, tuberculosis, scarlet fever, polio, and dysentery.
