The effect of high pressure (HP; 300 and 400 MPa for 5 min at 6 °C) on physico-chemical, microbial, color, texture and sensorial characteristics of starter-free fresh cheeses stored at 4 and 8 °C was studied. Physico-chemical parameters considered were total solids, fat, total protein, pH, whey loss and water activity. The microbiological quality was studied, on cheeses stored at 4 and 8 °C, by enumerating aerobic mesophilic bacteria, lactococci, psychrotrophic bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, Escherichia coli, molds and yeasts. Cheeses treated at 300 and 400 MPa, stored at 4 °C, presented a shelf-life of 14 and 21 days, respectively, compared to untreated control cheese, which presented a shelf life of 7 days. On the other hand, HP treatments modified the texture (more firm) and color (more yellow) compared to control cheeses. These changes were detected by instrumental and sensory analysis. 相似文献

Rheology and melt characterization of low-fat and full fat Mozzarella cheese made from microfluidized milk 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Microfluidization of cheese milk at different temperatures and pressures altered the meltability and rheological properties of Mozzarella cheese. Pasteurized milks, standardized to 1.0 (low-fat (LF)) or 3.2 (full fat (FF)) g fat/100 g milk, heated to 10, 43, or 54 °C, and then microfluidized at pressures of 34, 103, or 172 MPa, were used to manufacture Mozzarella cheese. Cheeses made from nonmicrofluidized milks served as controls. During the hot water step, only control cheeses and cheeses made with milk microfluidized at 10 °C could be stretched while all others had short curds that did not fuse together. Cheese responses to different stresses (heat, compression, torsion, and oscillatory shear) were measured after 1 and 6 weeks of storage. FF cheeses made with the control milks and milks processed at 10 °C/34 MPa or 10 °C/103 MPa were softer and less rigid, and had the lowest visco-elastic properties and the highest meltabilities of all the cheeses. Microfluidization of the cheese milk did not improve the melt or rheology of LF cheeses. Microfluidization of milk with fat in the liquid state at higher pressures resulted in smaller lipid droplets that altered the component interactions during the formation of the cheese matrix and resulted in LF and FF Mozzarella cheeses with poor melt and altered rheology. 相似文献

Freezing and long-term frozen storage had minimal impact on the rheology and proteolysis of soft cheese made from caprine milk. Plain soft cheeses were obtained from a grade A goat dairy in Georgia and received 4 storage treatments: fresh refrigerated control (C), aged at 4°C for 28 d; frozen control (FC), stored at −20°C for 2 d before being thawed and aged in the same way as C cheese; and 3-mo frozen (3MF), or 6-mo frozen (6MF), stored at −20°C for 3 or 6 mo before being thawed and aged. Soft cheeses had fragile textures that showed minimal change after freezing or over 28 d of aging at 4°C. The only exceptions were the FC cheeses, which, after frozen storage and aging for 1 d at 4°C, were significantly softer than the other cheeses, and less chewy than the other frozen cheeses. Moreover, after 28 d of aging at 4°C, the FC cheeses tended to have the lowest viscoelastic values. Slight variation was noted in protein distribution among the storage treatment, although no significant proteolysis occurred during refrigerated aging. The creation and removal of ice crystals in the cheese matrix and the limited proteolysis of the caseins showed only slight impact on cheese texture, suggesting that frozen storage of soft cheeses may be possible for year-round supply with minimal loss of textural quality. 相似文献

Directly acidified cheeses with different insoluble Ca (INS Ca) contents were made to test the hypothesis that the removal of INS Ca from casein micelles (CM) would directly contribute to the softening and flow behavior of cheese at high temperature. Skim milk was directly acidified with dilute lactic acid to pH values of 6.0, 5.8, 5.6, or 5.4 to remove INS Ca (pH trial). Lowering milk pH also reduced protein charge repulsion, which could influence melt. In a second treatment, EDTA (0, 2, 4, or 6 mM) was added to skim milk that was subsequently acidified to pH 6.0 (EDTA trial). Both types of milks were then made into directly acidified cheese. Cheese properties were determined at approximately 10 h after pressing to reduce possible confounding effects of proteolysis. The INS Ca content was determined by the acid-base titration method. Dynamic low-amplitude oscillatory rheology was used to measure the viscoelastic properties of cheese during heating from 5 to 80°C. The composition of all cheeses was as similar as possible, with cheese-making procedures being modified to obtain similar moisture contents (∼55%). Insoluble Ca contents of cheeses significantly decreased with a reduction in pH or with the addition of EDTA to skim milk. The pH values of cheeses in the pH trial varied, but all cheeses in the EDTA trial had similar pH values (∼5.73). In the pH trial, the reduction in cheese pH and consequent decrease in INS Ca content resulted in a reduction in the G′ values of cheeses at 20°C. In contrast, the G′ values at 20°C in cheeses from the EDTA trial increased with EDTA addition up to 4 mM EDTA. The G′ values at 70°C of cheeses from the pH trial decreased with a decrease in cheese pH, and a similar decrease was observed in the G′ values of cheese from the EDTA trial with an increase in EDTA concentration even though these cheeses had a similar pH value. In both trials, loss tangent (LT) values increased with temperatures >30°C and reached a maximum at approximately 70°C. In the pH trial, LT values at 70°C increased from 1.50 to 4.24 with a decrease in cheese pH from 5.78 to 5.21. The LT values increased from 1.43 to 3.23 with an increase in the concentration of added EDTA from 0 to 6 mM. In the EDTA trial, the decrease in G′ and increase in LT values at 70°C were due to the reduction in INS Ca content, because the pH values of these cheeses were the same. It can be concluded that the loss of INS Ca increases the melting in cheeses that have the same pH and gross chemical composition, and removal of INS Ca can even make cheese at high pH (∼5.73) exhibit reasonable melt characteristics. 相似文献

High Pressure (HP) treatment of milk prior to cheese-making was shown to increase the yield of cheese due to increased protein and moisture retention in cheese. Cheeses were made with raw milk or milk treated with high temperature short-time (HTST) pasteurization, and HP treatments at two levels (483 and 676 MPa) at 10 °C, 483 MPa HP at 30 °C, and 483 MPa HP at 40 °C. Cheese yield, total solids, protein, fat and salt contents were evaluated, and fat and protein recovery indices were calculated. Cheeses from HP treatments of 676 MPa at 10 °C and 483 MPa at 30 °C exhibited wet yields of 11.40% and 11.54%, respectively. Protein recovery was 79.9% for HP treatment of 676 MPa at 10 °C. The use of slightly higher pressurization temperatures increased moisture retention in cheese. Visco-elasticity of cheeses was determined by dynamic oscillatory testing and a creep-recovery test. Rheological parameters such as loss (G″) and storage (G′) moduli were dependent on oscillation frequency. At high (173 rad/s) and low (2.75 rad/s) angular frequencies, cheeses made from milk treated at 483 MPa at 10 °C behaved more solid-like than other treatments. Creep tests indicated that cheeses from milk treated with 483 MPa HP at 10 °C showed the smallest instantaneous compliance (Jo), confirming the more solid-like behavior of cheese from the 483 MPa at 10 °C treatment compared to the behavior of cheeses from other treatments. Cheeses made with pasteurized milk were more deformable, exhibited less solid-like behavior than cheeses made with HP treated milk, as shown by the Jo value. With more research into bacteriological implications, HP treatment of raw milk can augment Cheddar cheese yield with better curd formation properties. 相似文献

The protein matrix of cheese undergoes changes immediately following cheesemaking in response to salting and cooling. Normally, such changes are limited by the amount of water entrapped in the cheese at the time of block formation but for brined cheeses such as feta cheese brine acts as a reservoir of additional water. Our objective was to determine the extent to which the protein matrix of cheese expands or contracts as a function of salt concentration and temperature, and whether such changes are reversible. Blocks of feta cheese made with overnight fermentation at 20 and 31°C yielded cheese of pH 4.92 and pH 4.83 with 50.8 and 48.9 g/100 g of moisture, respectively. These cheeses were then cut into 100-g pieces and placed in plastic bags containing 100 g of whey brine solutions of 6.5, 8.0, and 9.5% salt, and stored at 3, 6, 10, and 22°C for 10 d. After brining, cheese and whey were reweighed, whey volume measured, and cheese salt, moisture, and pH determined. A second set of cheeses were similarly placed in brine (n = 9) and stored for 10 d at 3°C, followed by 10 d at 22°C, followed by 10 d at 3°C, or the complementary treatments starting at 22°C. Cheese weight and whey volume (n = 3) were measured at 10, 20, and 30 d of brining. Cheese structure was examined using laser scanning confocal microscopy. Brining temperature had the greatest influence on cheese composition (except for salt content), cheese weight, and cheese volume. Salt-in-moisture content of the cheeses approached expected levels based on brine concentration and ratio of brine to cheese (i.e., 4.6, 5.7 and 6.7%). Brining at 3°C increased cheese moisture, especially for cheese with an initial pH of 4.92, producing cheese with moisture up to 58 g/100 g. Cheese weight increased after brining at 3, 6, or 10°C. Cold storage also prevented further fermentation and the pH remained constant, whereas at 22°C the pH dropped as low as pH 4.1. At 3°C, the cheese matrix expanded (20 to 30%), whereas at 22°C there was a contraction and a 13 to 18 g/100 g loss in weight. Expansion of the protein matrix at 3°C was reversed by changing to 22°C. However, contraction of the protein matrix was not reversed by changing to 3°C, and the cheese volume remained less than what it was initially. 相似文献

Effect of freezing and frozen storage on microstructure of Mozzarella and pizza cheeses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Meng-I. Kuo 《LWT》2009,42(1):9-16
Scanning electron microscopy was used to assess the effect of aging before (2, 7, and 14 days at 7 °C) or tempering after (1, 7, and 14 days at 7 °C) freezing, and frozen storage (1 and 4 weeks at −20 °C) on protein matrix of pasta filata Mozzarella and non-pasta filata pizza cheeses using unfrozen samples as controls. Pores and ruptures of reticular structure were observed in frozen-stored pasta filata Mozzarella cheese protein matrix, but cracks and clumps of bacteria were found in frozen-stored non-pasta filata pizza cheese. No obvious differences were discernable between the microstructures of pasta filata Mozzarella cheeses frozen stored 1 and 4 weeks. Formation of the reticular structure in frozen-stored pasta filata Mozzarella cheese progressed during tempering. Microstructure of non-pasta filata pizza cheese frozen stored for 4 weeks contained more extensive cracking and more areas of clumps of bacteria than that was frozen stored for 1 week. Aging of cheese before frozen storage was considered responsible for microstructural cracking; fewer cracks were found in the frozen-stored cheese tempered 1 and 2 weeks, but the clumps of bacteria were still observed. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to explore the effect of elevated temperature (16 °C) on ripening of Dutch-type cheese. Three slices of each cheese block were further divided into three layers. The processes in the control samples of cheese ripening at 10 °C were also monitored. The contents of free amino acids in accelerated cheese were two times higher than were those in control samples. The highest contents of free amino acids were observed in the cores of all slices of cheeses ripening at both temperatures. The contents of tyramine, in layers of the studied slices, reached almost 500 mg kg−1 during 56 days of the experiment. The contents of biogenic amines in the edges grew even higher. Accelerated cheese showed faster equalisation of hardness than did control samples. The increase of temperature by 6 °C can reduce the ripening time in cellars by approximately one half. 相似文献

Effects of freezing rates on starch retrogradation and textural properties of cooked rice during storage 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The effects of freezing rates and storage temperatures on starch retrogradation and textural properties of cooked rice were evaluated. Cooked rice was frozen with different freezing rates and then stored at 4 °C for 14 days or −18 °C for up to 7 months. Starch retrogradation enthalpy (ΔHr) of cooked rice was determined by a differential scanning calorimetry, and textural properties were determined by a texture analyser. The results showed that the ΔHr and hardness values had a negative correlation with freezing rate, however, a positive correlation was found between adhesiveness and freezing rate. On the other hand, the advantages (lower hardness and higher adhesiveness, less starch retrogradaton) of cooked rice gained by rapid freezing, were lost quickly in the first 3 days of storage at 4 °C. However, rapid freezing combined with −18 °C frozen storage can effectively retard starch retrogradation and maintain the textural properties of cooked rice for at least 7 months. Therefore, high quality cooked rice can be produced by combined rapid freezing with frozen storage. 相似文献

Empirical and fundamental rheological measurements were made on fresh and frozen dough to study the effects of freezing and frozen storage conditions. Frozen dough was stored at two different temperatures, −18 °C and −30 °C, and for 1, 7 and 28 days. Four dough formulations were tested: a standard wheat dough, a fibre-enriched wheat dough, a standard gluten-free dough and a gluten-free dough containing amaranth flour. No yeast was used in any formulation. The wheat dough is more affected by freezing and by the first days of storage whereas the gluten-free dough is more affected by a longer storage time. A storage temperature of −30 °C alters dough rheological properties more than a storage temperature of −18 °C. The addition of dietary fibres to the wheat dough increases its resistance to freezing and frozen storage. The addition of amaranth flour to gluten-free dough also increases its resistance to freezing but decreases its resistance to storage conditions. 相似文献

The effect of tea on the fermentation and survival of yogurt microorganisms was studied. Green and black teas were added to milk at the beginning of fermentation. Acidity of yogurt products and survival of their microflora were studied during 42 days at 4 °C. Results showed that the presence of tea did not significantly (P < 0.05) influence the yogurt characteristic microorganisms. HPLC studies demonstrated that yogurt bacteria did not affect tea catechins when they were incubated together for 48 h. Indeed, all five products reached about 109 CFU/ml after 6 h of fermentation. Viability during 6 weeks storage at 4 °C varied very little (8.35 < log CFU/ml < 8.65). Similarly, green and black teas had no effect on lactic acid levels of the final products (after 6 weeks of storage, acidity remained above 80 °D). According to these findings, addition of teas or tea catechins to yogurt can be recommended to take advantage of their beneficial properties on human health attributed to their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. 相似文献

Combined effects of freezing rate, storage temperature and time on bread dough and baking properties 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study compares the effects of freezing temperature and rate as well as storage temperature and time on the quality of frozen dough. Yeasted bread dough was frozen using four freezing rates (19-69 °C/h), then stored at −10, −20, −30, or −35 °C for up to 180 days. Dough strength diminished with longer storage time and higher storage temperatures. Cryo-SEM showed that dough stored at −30 and −35 °C had the least damaged gluten network. NMR studies showed that more rapidly frozen dough, and that stored at lower temperatures had lower transverse relaxation (T2) times (9-10 ms). However, dough stored at −20 °C displayed the highest yeast activity among samples. Bread loaf volume decreased with storage time, and bread made from dough stored at −20 °C showed the highest loaf volume. Breads produced from −30 and −35 °C stored dough displayed less change in the texture profile during storage as well as less change in T2 values. Response surface analysis showed that optimal properties occurred at freezing rates of around 19-41 °C/h and storage temperatures of −15 to −20 °C. 相似文献

Queso Fresco (QF), a popular high-moisture, high-pH Hispanic-style cheese sold in the United States, underwent high-pressure processing (HPP), which has the potential to improve the safety of cheese, to determine the effects of this process on quality traits of the cheese. Starter-free, rennet-set QF (manufactured from pasteurized, homogenized milk, milled before hooping, and not pressed) was cut into 4.5- × 4.5- × 15-cm blocks and double vacuum packaged. Phase 1 of the research examined the effects of hydrostatic HPP on the quality traits of fresh QF that had been warmed to a core temperature of 20 or 40°C; processed at 200, 400, or 600 MPa for 5, 10, or 20 min; and stored at 4°C for 6 to 8 d. Phase 2 examined the long-term effects of HPP on quality traits when QF was treated at 600 MPa for 3 or 10 min, and stored at 4 or 10°C for up to 12 wk. Warming the QF to 40°C before packaging and exposure to high pressure resulted in loss of free whey from the cheese into the package, lower moisture content, and harder cheese. In phase 2, the control QF, regardless of aging temperature, was significantly softer than HPP cheeses over the 12 wk of storage. Hardness, fracture stress, and fracture rigidity increased with length of exposure time and storage temperature, with minor changes in the other properties. Queso Fresco remained a bright white, weak-bodied cheese that crumbled and did not melt upon heating. Although high pressures or long processing times may be required for the elimination of pathogens, cheese producers must be aware that HPP altered the rheological properties of QF and caused wheying-off in cheeses not pressed before packaging. 相似文献

Semi-hard ewe's milk cheeses, frozen immediately after manufacture either slowly at –35 °C or rapidly at –80 °C and stored at –20 °C for 4 months were studied for microstructural and textural characteristics during subsequent ripening. Two control groups were used to establish the effect of freezing: the fresh unfrozen cheese and cheese thawed immediately after freezing. Freezing proper did not result in any marked changes in the textural parameters of the cheeses, but considerable changes were found in slowly frozen cheeses after 4 months of frozen storage. Shear strength values were lower in all frozen and stored cheeses, particularly in cheese samples frozen slowly compared to those in the unfrozen control batch. This parameter and firmness values were significantly lower in both slowly and rapidly frozen cheeses at the completion of ripening. Ripening tended to offset differences in elasticity, noticeable in the cheeses during the first 30 days of ripening. Light microscopy and electron microscopy revealed small cracks and ruptures in the cheeses which could not be observed by the naked eye. More extensive damage to the cheese microstructure was found in slowly frozen cheese samples stored frozen for 4 months. 相似文献

The dynamic rheological and microstructural properties of rennet-casein-based imitation cheeses containing various concentrations of potato starch were investigated using a stress-controlled rheometer and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The influence of added starch on the size of the oil droplets in the imitation cheeses was also examined. Imitation cheeses with 0–15% protein replaced by starch were processed in a Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) at 90 °C for 10 min at a shear rate of 800 rev/min and were then evaluated using oscillatory shear measurement and a temperature sweep (20–90 °C). The storage modulus (G′) of the rennet casein imitation cheeses increased abruptly at added starch concentrations >4%. In the temperature range 20–90 °C, tan δ of the imitation cheeses decreased with increasing starch concentration and was <1 at added starch concentrations >4%. A binary continuous phase consisting of a protein phase and a starch phase was observed in systems containing >4% starch, whereas the starch was dispersed in the protein matrix as small particles of irregular shapes at added starch concentrations ≤4%. As the dispersed phase, the size of the oil droplets increased with starch addition in the imitation cheeses. The marked increase in G′ and the reduction in tan δ may be attributed to the formation of a binary continuous separated phase structure in imitation cheeses containing added starch that is driven by thermodynamic incompatibility between rennet casein and starch. 相似文献

The aim of the work was to describe the development of selected biogenic amines (histamine, tyramine, putrescine and cadaverine) in 4 layers of Dutch-type cheese (Edam-cheese) depending on 3 ripening/storage regimes during a 98-day period. Biogenic amines were analysed by means of ion-exchange chromatography. A further goal was to identify microbial sources of biogenic amines in the material analysed. Phenotype characterization and repetitive sequence-based PCR fingerprinting were used to identify the isolated bacteria. The highest content of tyramine, putrescine and cadaverine was determined in cheeses stored in a ripening cellar at a temperature of 10 °C during the whole observation period. Lower biogenic amines content was determined in samples which were moved into a cold storage device (5 °C) after 38 days of storage in a ripening cellar (10 °C). The lowest concentrations of biogenic amines were detected in cheeses which were moved into a cold storage device (5 °C) after 23 days of storage in a ripening cellar (10 °C). During the 98-day period, histamine was not detected in any of the regimes. Within the cheeses analysed, non-starter lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus curvatus, Lactobacillus casei/paracasei and Lactobacillus plantarum were detected as the main producers of the biogenic amines tested. In starter bacteria Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis and Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris the decarboxylase activity tested was not detected. 相似文献

Queso Chihuahua, a semi-hard cheese manufactured from raw milk (RM) in northern Mexico, is being replaced by pasteurized milk (PM) versions because of food safety concerns and the desire for longer shelf life. In this study, the functional traits of authentic Mexican Queso Chihuahua made from RM or PM were characterized to identify sources of variation and to determine if pasteurization of the cheese milk resulted in changes to the functional properties. Two brands of RM cheese and 2 brands of PM cheese obtained in 3 seasons of the year from 4 manufacturers in Chihuahua, Mexico, were analyzed after 0, 4, 8, 12, and 16 wk of storage at 4°C. A color measurement spectrophotometer was used to collect color data before and after heating at 232°C for 5 min or 130°C for 75 min. Meltability was measured using the Schreiber Melt Test on samples heated to 232°C for 5 min. Sliceability (the force required to cut through a sample) was measured using a texture analyzer fitted with a wire cutter attachment. Proteolysis was tracked using sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE. Compared with PM cheeses, RM cheeses showed less browning upon heating, melted more at 232°C, and initially required a greater cutting force. With aging, cheeses increased in meltability, decreased in whiteness when measured before heating, and required less cutting force to slice. Seasonal variations in the cheesemilk had minimal or no effect on the functional properties. The differences in the functional properties can be attributed, in part, to the mixed microflora present in the RM cheeses compared with the more homogeneous microflora added during the manufacture of PM cheeses. The degree of proteolysis and subsequent integrity of the cheese matrix contribute to melt, slice, and color properties of the RM and PM cheeses. Understanding the functional properties of the authentic RM cheeses will help researchers and cheesemakers develop pasteurized versions that maintain the traditional traits desired in the cheeses. 相似文献

The effects of 6 mo of freezing and refrigeration on organic acid profiles of 2 types of goat milk cheese [plain soft (PS) and Monterey Jack (MJ)] were studied in comparison with those of a nonfrozen control (NFC). Three lots of commercial PS cheeses were purchased, and 3 lots of MJ cheeses were manufactured at the University dairy plant. Each lot of the 2 types of cheeses was subdivided into 4 equal portions, and one subsample of each cheese was immediately stored at 4°C as the NFC for 0, 14, and 28 d. The other 3 were immediately frozen (−20°C) for 0, 3, and 6 mo (0MF, 3MF, and 6MF) and subsequently thawed the next day at 4°C. The samples were then stored at 4°C for 0, 14, and 28 d. Organic acids were quantified using an HPLC. The PS had no pyruvic acid, and MJ contained no isotartaric acid; however, several unknown large peaks appeared between propionic and butyric acids. Differences in organic acid contents between PS and MJ cheeses were significant for all acids except citric and lactic acid. Lot effect was significant for most of the known acids, indicating that variations existed in milk composition and manufacturing parameters. Effects of storage treatments (NFC, 0MF, 3MF, and 6MF) were significant for most organic acids, except for orotic and a few unidentified acids. Aging at 4°C for 4 wk had little influence on all organic acids, except butyric acid. Concentrations of butyric, lactic, propionic, tartaric, and uric acids were significantly elevated as the frozen storage period advanced. At the initial stage, there were no differences in pH and acid degree values between NFC and frozen-stored groups of both cheeses. However, acid degree values gradually increased as the refrigerated storage extended up to 4 wk, indicating that lipolysis increased as the refrigeration storage at 4°C advanced. Although levels of several organic acids were changed in the goat cheeses, the prolonged frozen storage, up to 6 mo, was apparently feasible for extending storage. 相似文献

Hard cooked cheeses are mostly manufactured with lactic starters of Lactobacillus helveticus, which constitute a major proteolytic agent in the food. In this work, we assessed the proteolysis produced by enzymes of two strains of L. helveticus in a new cheese model, which consisted of a sterile substrate prepared with hard-cooked cheeses, and identified the time of ripening when main changes in proteolysis are produced. The extract, a representative model of the aqueous phase of the cheeses, was obtained from Reggianito cheeses of different ripening times (3, 90, and 180 days) made with starters composed of the strains tested, either SF138 or SF209. To obtain the substrate, the cheese was extracted with water, then centrifuged and the aqueous phase was sterilized by filtration through membrane (0.45 ??m). The substrates were incubated at 34 °C during 21 days; samples were taken at 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days. Sterility was verified by plating samples on skim milk agar and incubating at 37 °C for 48 h. Proteolysis was determined by liquid chromatography of soluble peptides and free amino acids. Great variation in peptide profiles was found as incubation progressed in cheese extracts, which evidenced that proteases and peptidases from the starter were active and able to degrade the proteinaceous material available in the extracts. The extracts derived from cheeses with L. helveticus SF138 showed low production of peptides and a notable increase in free amino acids content during incubation. L. helveticus SF209, on the contrary, caused an increase on soluble peptides, but the free amino acids accumulation was lower than in the first case, which suggested that L. helveticus SF209 had either a low peptydolitic activity or produced an intense amino acids breakdown. This trend was more evident for extracts prepared with 90-day-old cheeses. It was concluded that the strains of L. helveticus assayed showed potentially complementary proteolytic abilities, as SF209 was able to provide a continuous replenishment of peptides during incubation, while SF138 increased their hydrolysis to free amino acids. The extract was an appropriate medium to model hard cooked cheese ripening in short periods of time. 相似文献

Fortification of cheesemilk with membrane retentates is often practiced by cheesemakers to increase yield. However, the higher casein (CN) content can alter coagulation characteristics, which may affect cheese yield and quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of using ultrafiltration (UF) retentates that were processed at low temperatures on the properties of Swiss cheese. Because of the faster clotting observed with fortified milks, we also investigated the effects of altering the coagulation conditions by reducing the renneting temperature (from 32.2 to 28.3°C) and allowing a longer renneting time before cutting (i.e., giving an extra 5 min). Milks with elevated total solids (TS; ∼13.4%) were made by blending whole milk retentates (26.5% TS, 7.7% CN, 11.5% fat) obtained by cold (<7°C) UF with part skim milk (11.4% TS, 2.5% CN, 2.6% fat) to obtain milk with CN:fat ratio of approximately 0.87. Control cheeses were made from part-skim milk (11.5% TS, 2.5% CN, 2.8% fat). Three types of UF fortified cheeses were manufactured by altering the renneting temperature and renneting time: high renneting temperature = 32.2°C (UFHT), low renneting temperature = 28.3°C (UFLT), and a low renneting temperature (28.3°C) plus longer cutting time (+5 min compared to UFLT; UFLTL). Cutting times, as selected by a Wisconsin licensed cheesemaker, were approximately 21, 31, 35, and 32 min for UFHT, UFLT, UFLTL, and control milks, respectively. Storage moduli of gels at cutting were lower for the UFHT and UFLT samples compared with UFLTL or control. Yield stress values of gels from the UF-fortified milks were higher than those of control milks, and decreasing the renneting temperature reduced the yield stress values. Increasing the cutting time for the gels made from the UF-fortified milks resulted in an increase in yield stress values. Yield strain values were significantly lower in gels made from control or UFLTL milks compared with gels made from UFHT or UFLT milks. Cheese composition did not differ except for fat content, which was lower in the control compared with the UF-fortified cheeses. No residual lactose or galactose remained in the cheeses after 2 mo of ripening. Fat recoveries were similar in control, UFHT, and UFLTL but lower in UFLT cheeses. Significantly higher N recoveries were obtained in the UF-fortified cheeses compared with control cheese. Because of higher fat and CN contents, cheese yield was significantly higher in UF-fortified cheeses (∼11.0 to 11.2%) compared with control cheese (∼8.5%). A significant reduction was observed in volume of whey produced from cheese made from UF-fortified milk and in these wheys, the protein was a higher proportion of the solids. During ripening, the pH values and 12% trichloroacetic acid-soluble N levels were similar for all cheeses. No differences were observed in the sensory properties of the cheeses. The use of UF retentates improved cheese yield with no significant effect on ripening or sensory quality. The faster coagulation and gel firming can be decreased by altering the renneting conditions. 相似文献
