abstract

the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of starters and storage temperature (4 ºc, 25 ºc) onmicrobiological and physicochemical properties, volatile compounds and sensory evaluation of kefir.kefirs produced by kfa and chr. hansen starters were stored at 4 ºc and 25 ºc for 40 days. ph andacidity at 4 ºc did not change (p ≥ 0.05), while at 25 ºc ph and total solid decreased as well as acidity.concentrations of acetaldehyde and ethanol increased (p < 0.05). no significant differences (p ≥ 0.05)were observed in protein and non-protein-nitrogen for both samples. sensory evaluation revealedthat storage did not affect texture and color of samples at 4 ºc. kefir produced by chr. hansen starterstored at 4 ºc had the highest acceptability until 40-day storage and was preferred by the panelists.

Effects of delayed icing on the sensory, chemical, microbial and microstructure attributes of banana shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) during ice storage

The effect of delayed icing on the quality of banana shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) was investigated by determining sensory, physicochemical (pH, TVB-N and WHC), microbial (TMC, total mesophilic counts and TPC, total psychrophilic counts) and microstructure aspects over 20 days during ice storage. The fresh shrimp stored in the immediately iced after caught (lot I) were organoleptically ac...

Effects of genistein on melanosis and microbial quality of Litopenaeus vannamei during ice storage

Utilization of genistein as a natural inhibitor was studied alone and in combination with conventional treatments on melanosis and microbial quality of fresh L. vannamei during 10 days ice storage. Treatments were as followed: A (dipping samples in distilled water), B (dipping in 1.25 % sodium metabisulphite solution), C (dipping in 0.01 % genistein + 2% glycerol solution), D (dipping in 0.1 % ...
