abstract the objective of this study was to determine the effect of psychrotrophic bacteria and somatic cells on the physicochemical characteristics of iranian ultrafiltered (uf) white cheese. milks with different numbers of psychrotrophic bacteria (1×106, 5×106 and 10×106 cfu/ml) and low somatic cell counts (scc, <2×105/ml) were selected and uf white cheese trials were produced. in a separate ...

fruit leather is one of dried product with variable production, good marketing and popular consumption in many countries of the world. in this research, the effect of concentration temperature (55-75 °c) and time (20-40 min) and drying temperature (40-70 °c) on the chemical composition (brix, ph, sugars and vitamin c) and the microbial properties of apple leather investigated. the results showe...

to determine the prevalence of bacterial mastitis in cattle, milk samples positive for california mastitistest (cmt) were cultured during a period of almost 4 years. the bacterial species isolated from 2904 milksamples studied were coagulase negative staphylococcus sp. in 879 (30.27%) samples, streptococcusagalactiae in 642 (22.11%), s. dysgalactiae in 332 (11.43%), e. coli in 295 (10.16%), sta...

l-asparaginase is a candidate enzyme for anti-neoplastic agent againstacute lymphoblasticleukemia and also extensively use in the food industry for prevention of acrylamide formation. l-asparaginase is widely distributed among microorganisms. in this study, marine bacteria were isolated from persian gulf and screened for l-asparaginase activity. production of l-asparaginase was carried out by u...

mesophilic bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes varied during composting cycles with high numbers in the initial and final cycles with maximal values in compost c and d, and sharply decreased in the heating cycles. staphylococcus aureus and bacillus subtilis were dominated at the initial composting cycle. whereas, at maturity bacillus subtilis was the major followed by b.badies, b.polymixa and b.b...

background: escherichia coli (e. coli) is the most frequent infecting organism in acute infection. so, knowledge about the frequency and distribution of urinary tract infection (uti) is important to improve infection control measures. the aim of this research was to determine the prevalence of bacteria isolated from urinary tract infection (uti) in patients and determination of the antibiotic s...

in order to study the response of concentration and composition of essential oil of coriander (coriandrum sativum) to cattle manure and nitrogen fixing bacteria, an experiment was conducted as factorial experiment in the base of randomized complete blocks design with twelve treatments and three replications at homand research station in damavand of iran in 2010. the factors were cattle manure i...

in this study, salmonella typhimurium bacteria removal from polluted water has been investigated using multiwall carbon nanotubes arrays. experimental results reveal that the contact time, the bacterial concentration and the weight of multiwall carbon nanotubes arrays have positive significant effects on the bacteria removal efficiency. increasing the contact time and the weight of multiwall ca...
