the objectives of this paper were production of probiotic yoghurt using l. paracasei ssp. tolerans, and evaluation of ph changes, viable counts, and organoleptic properties of the produced yoghurt. it was observed that the ph decrease during the fermentation period was faster in the milk inoculated with l. paracasei ssp. tolerans plus starter culture. there was a gradual decrease in ph in both ...

The metabolic health benefits of fermented milks have already been investigated using clinical biomarkers but the development of transcriptomic analytics in blood offers an alternative approach that may help to sensitively characterise such effects. We aimed to assess the effects of probiotic yoghurt intake, compared to non-fermented, acidified milk intake, on clinical biomarkers and gene expre...

Background & Aims: Probiotic bacteria have beneficial effects on host's health. However, one of the most important reasons which affect the probiotic activity of a microorganism is its survival during the gut transit. Microencapsulation techniques could be applied to bacteria to improve this parameter. Methods: In this study, feces of 60 healthy volunteers were analyzed during 28-day test perio...

The objectives of this study were to assess the microbiological quality of Egyptian yoghurt and to investigate the antagonistic activity of some probiotic bacteria against some food borne pathogens in vitro and in yoghurt. The results indicated a poor microbiological quality of yoghurt, since the microbiological parameters recorded higher values than the admissible levels. Results from the agar...

Nitrogen components of yoghurt milk samples and resulting probiotic set yoghurt weredetermined. Analyses included total nitrogen (TN), non-casein nitrogen (NCN), non-proteinnitrogen (NPN), casein nitrogen (CN) and proteolysis index (PI). Yoghurt samples wereanalyzed 1, 7, 14 and 21days after production and storage at 5±1°C. TN, CN and PI contentsof yoghurt milk samples with high Somatic Cell SC...

BACKGROUND The aim of the current study was to determine effects of probiotic yoghurt and multispecies probiotic capsule supplementation on biomarkers of oxidative stress and inflammatory factors in petrochemical workers. METHODS This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was done among petrochemical workers. Subjects were randomly divided into three groups to receive 100 g/day p...

BACKGROUND Goat milk production in Shaanxi province is dominant in China, but the product is mainly infant formula and adult milk powder; product homogeneity is serious and has no goat yoghurt with probiotic culture. METHODS The effect of bacteria proportion (1:3:1, 1:2:1, 1:1:1, 2:1:1, 3:1:1) on pH, acidity, and viable counts and sensory evaluation of goat milk fermented by probiotics includ...
