                    The yoghurt was 
                    prepared from 4.5% fat standardized milk by inoculating with 
                    starter culture comprising Streptococcus thermophillus and 
                    lactobacillus bulgaricus at 2% and incubated for different 
                    periods of time to yield yoghurt of 4.5±0.1, 4.2±0.1 and 
                    3.9±0.1 initial pH and stored at different temperatures of 
                    4, 10 and at 370C for 4, 2 and 1 day respectively. One 
                    control sample of 4.5±0.1 initial pH was stored at 40C for 4 
                    weeks as a check. It was observed that initial pH, storage 
                    temperature and preservatives had the effect on shelf life 
                    and quality of yoghurt.
