Pastöroidataan

Pastöroidataan is a Finnish verb meaning "to be pasteurized." Pasteurization is a process of heating a liquid, such as milk or juice, to a specific temperature for a set period of time to kill harmful bacteria and extend shelf life. This process is named after the French scientist Louis Pasteur, who developed it in the 19th century.

In Finnish, the verb is used to describe the state of a food or beverage that has undergone pasteurization. For example, "Maito on pastöroidattu" translates to "The milk has been pasteurized." It can also be used in the passive voice to indicate that something will be pasteurized, such as "Mehu tullaan pastöroidaan ennen pullottamista" meaning "The juice will be pasteurized before bottling." The term is commonly encountered in discussions about food safety and quality in Finland, particularly concerning dairy products and beverages. The process itself is a standard practice in the food industry worldwide to ensure consumer safety.
