In this study, firstly yeast was isolated from 50 white cheese samples produced by traditional methods raw milk. The species were and identified with the VITEK2 Compact system. There obtained 90 isolates 35.6% Candida sake (32), 13.3% zeylanoides (12), 8.9% famata (8) kefyr remaining 33.3% sphaerica (4), colliculasa (2), boidinii lusitaniae parapsilosis (4) Cryptococcus laurentii krusei Sacchar...

We introduce mCP nets, an extension of the CP net formalism to model and handle the qualitative and conditional preferences of multiple agents. We give a number of different semantics for reasoning with mCP nets. The semantics are all based on the idea of individual agents voting. We describe how to test optimality and preference ordering within a mCP net, and we give complexity results for suc...

Exopolysaccharide-producing Lactobacillus casei CG11 was isolated from soft, white, homemade cheese. In basal minimal medium, it produces a neutral heteropolysaccharide consisting predominantly of glucose (about 75%) and rhamnose (about 15%). Plasmid curing experiments revealed that exopolysaccharide production by strain CG11 is linked to a plasmid approximately 30 kb in size.

Dairy products is considered the most complete foodstuff that provide human with of their vital needs. The aim this study to evaluate some chemical parameters and bacteriological quality traditional white soft cheese. Our finding indicates that, pH ranged between 5.72 7.25 an average 6.53, moisture percentage 37.76 % 54.95 45.03%, fat 1.2 4.3 2.36 %, protein 16.3 23.16 19.55 %. Ash 1.7% 2.8% 2....

We assessed the Sysmex UF-50 for reproducibility of results and carryover rate by performing between- and within-run precision analyses on 315 urine samples, evaluated the feasibility of using the UF-50 to measure urinary cellular and noncellular components by comparing results from the UF-50 with results of manual urinalysis using the Kova system, and performed side-by-side comparison of the w...

A membrane filtration system was used to remove organic compounds, suspended solids, colour and turbidity from anaerobically treated dairy wastewater. Direct microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), MF-UF and a combination of UF with coagulation using two conventional coagulants were investigated. The installation with ceramic membranes was operated at a pressure of 0.15 MPa (MF) and 0.3 MPa...

Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a major foodborne pathogen that causes severe disease in humans. Survival of E. coli O157:H7 during processing and storage of white brined cheese was investigated. Cheeses were prepared using pasteurized milk inoculated with a 4 strain E. coli O157:H7 cocktail (7 log(10) CFU/g) with or without yogurt starter culture (Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus and Stre...

BACKGROUND Ultrafiltration (UF) is assumed to enhance urea removal during haemodialysis (HD) because of convective transport and because of contraction of urea distribution volume. However, UF-induced blood volume reduction has been hypothesized to enhance peripheral urea sequestration and post-dialysis urea rebound (PDUR), possibly reducing HD effectiveness. The effect of UF on PDUR was invest...
