Many earlier studies have documented pasteurization problems in the dairy industry. As a result, ultrasonic processing has been researched as non‐heat alternative to pasteurization. In this study, milk‐based soft cheese was treated using various sonication times (0, 1, and 3 min) at set frequency (22 kHz) with an amplitude of 60% 630 W different ripening periods 15, 30, 60 days) brine (15%), st...

In this research, the chemical and microbiological characteristics of white brined cheeses produced with five different starter cultures, namely: traditional kefir grain, commercial kefir, commercial yogurt, traditional yogurt and commercial cheese starter culture, were examined during 60-day ripening period. Results of statistical analysis showed that the type of starter culture had a signific...

Background and Objectives: Fast proteolysis of cheese in ripening process may lead to the premature attack of casein, release of the majority of enzymes into the whey, and loss of cheese composition from curd to whey. In this study, the effect of liposomal Flavourzyme on proteolysis of Iranian white brined cheese, as well as on the yield and composition of whey and curd was investigated. Mater...

Following a Listeria monocytogenes detection in a mozzarella cheese sampled at a dairy plant in Lazio Region, further investigations have been conducted both by the competent Authority and the food business operatordairy factory (as a part of dairy factory HACCP control). In total, 90 dairy products, 7 brine and 64 environmental samples have been tested. The prevalence of Listeria monocytogenes...

Introduction Hellim (Halloumi) cheese is a traditional cheese belonging to Cyprus. Hellim is a popular and a widely-consumed dairy product especially in the eastern region of Mediterranean (Kaminarides et al., 2007). It is a semi-hard rindless cheese preserved in brine. The manufacture of Halloumi has been described by Anifantakis and Kaminarides (1983). The most characteristic peculiarity of t...

Comparat i ve stud i es were made on the composition, microstructure and organolepti c quali t y of soft brine cheese made f rom instant whole mi I k powder and from raw mi I k. The chemi ca I analysis of young and ripened (one and two month) cheese re vealed similarity except fo r a higher salt content in the cheese made from reconstituted milk at the end of ripening . Electron microscopic stu...

in this study, soymilk curd (tofu) was produced and evaluated at three stages according to iranian preference. in the first stage, the effect of soybean varieties (williams & habbit), production methods (traditional & recommended), and formulation (0, 10 and 20% cheese whey instead of water used in soymilk production) on the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of tofu were evaluated. i...
