| Abstract: | Not many studies have examined changes in microbial transglutaminase (MTG) yoghurts during storage. In this work, yoghurts manufactured with skimmed milk and treated with MTG were evaluated in refrigerated storage for 35 days. Instrumental measurements showed that firmness, consistency and pH values in MTG yoghurt experienced a significant increase with the storage time. However, sensory measurements showed that MTG yoghurts were not affected significantly by storage time. Acid taste scores only increased significantly with storage time in the control samples. Microbial transglutaminase treatment showed a positive effect on textural properties and allowed syneresis to be prevented completely during storage. |
