Mainly the temperature and the cleanliness of the milk after the milk carton is opened. A properly pasteurized milk product will last as least till the buy-by date. But if the milk is in contact with human skin/lips and then stored in room temperature, the milk should spoil within 48 hours. Of course, by the same reasoning, milk stored in a used glass and left on a table in a warm humid room will do the trick too.
