There have been frequent incidents of problematic milk powder in various countries:

Food-borne poisoning suspected to be found in Spanish milk powder in March 2018

Foreign milk powder has been plagued with problems, most of which will be recalled publicly; but the health of baby is still a concern for those that are already in the market.
Not to mention some refused to publish pollution list, which milk powder brand recruitment, it is really hard to say.
Milk powder has been in a volatile situation, true or false can not be identified, even real milk powder can be contaminated.
Therefore, in addition to finding regular overseas channels to buy real milk powder, how to avoid buying contaminated milk powder has become the heart of many mothers.
The editor shares a few tips here:
The World Health Organization recommends that milk be brewed with water above 70 ℃; WHO and NHS recommend that milk powder be brewed with water above 70 ℃ to kill two of the most common bacteria in milk powder, Enterobacter sakazakii and Salmonella sakazakii.
At this point, there will be many mothers asking questions: why do many experts and milk powder manufacturers suggest that the foaming temperature is between 40 ℃ and 50 ℃?
This is mainly because warm water bubbling can maximize the retention of the active ingredients of milk powder.
But only if-milk powder must be sterile, and the foaming process and the environment to meet health requirements.
It is reported that at present, a lot of milk powder on the market is not really able to meet the requirements of asepsis
So, even if high-temperature milk powder can deactivate some of the ingredients, it`s nothing compared to the health of the baby.
In addition, because milk powder bubble after placing too long, may breed bacteria. Milk powder can be prepared at high temperature with water-proof cooling method to make milk powder cooling quickly.
