Abstract

We report the relaxometric dataset obtained on renneted milk during syneresis by Time-Domain Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (TD-NMR). Data were obtained on cow's milk provided by two different producers in two different lactation seasons (April and October) and on a group of goat's milk samples (one season, November-December, one producer). TD-NMR data refer to spin-spin relaxation times (T2) decay curves and distributions measured at 40 °C at seven time points after rennet addition, up to 70 minutes of syneresis. Curd was cut 30 min after rennet addition without removing the NMR tube from the TD-NMR instrument. The dataset here reported is related to the research article entitled "Non invasive monitoring of curd syneresis upon renneting of raw and heat-treated cow's and goat's milk" [E. Curti, A. Pardu, S. Del Vigo, R. Sanna, R. Anedda, Non-invasive monitoring of curd syneresis upon renneting of raw and heat-treated cow's and goat's milk, Int. Dairy J. 90 (2019) 95-97].
