The ability to growth in milk is an important feature for lactic acid bacteria (LAB) used as starters for fermented milk products. Several decades ago the results of the studies varied widely: some of them showed that LAB grew better in raw milk and others demonstrated improved growth of the bacteria in heat-treated milk (Foster et al., 1952). The effectiveness of heat treatment of milk as a to...

The effect of whey powder, whey protein concentrate, caseinomacropeptide, and malt addition into milk on the growth and acid production of lactobacilli (Lactobacillus casei Lafti L-26, Lactobacillus a...

A multinational collaborative team led by the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention is currently investigating the potential of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for nontargeted detection of adulterants in skim and nonfat dry milk powder. The development of a compendial method is challenged by the range of authentic or nonadulterated milk powders available worldwide. This paper investigates the sources ...

it is then reduced to twice a day. After this, the powder is left off during the day, butt a dose is taken at bedtime.

Two milk protein concentrates powders with 80% protein content (MPC80) were reconstituted with either water or permeate at 4C or 37C to contain 3.5% protein content. Samples were homogenized at 0 or 13800 kPa. The objective of this research was to determine how different solubility measures such as solubility index, soluble solids and particle size were affected by powder source, reconstitution...

Soy milk and sesame seeds consumption has been linked to a lower incidence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and atherosclerosis. In this study, fifty male adult albino rats (120-125 g) were divided into five experimental groups, healthy control group, positive control group injected with single dose of adriamycin ADR (10 mg/kg b.w) for induction of cardiotoxicity, group fed o...
