What is the term for breast milk storage conditions at room temperature?

The term for breast milk storage conditions at room temperature is recognized as 4 hours maximum. This guideline reflects the general consensus based on studies evaluating the safety and quality of breast milk when stored outside of refrigeration.

Breast milk can be stored at room temperature, typically defined as around 77°F (25°C), for a duration of up to 4 hours without significant risk of bacterial growth or degradation of its nutritional qualities. This time frame is critical for ensuring that the milk remains safe for infant consumption and retains its beneficial properties.

In contrast, shorter time frames suggested by other options would not align with current recommendations and are not supported by the available research on breast milk handling and storage practices.
