This study was aimed at developing RP-HPLC method for determination of natamycin in Turkish yoghurt. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a C8 column (150 mm × 4.6 mm × 5 µm) with a mobile phase of methanol : water : acetic acid (12 : 8 : 1 v/v/v), at 1 mL/min flow rate with a detection of 303 nm. Natamycin was spiked into handmade yoghurt samples and used for validation. The method has b...

BACKGROUND Vegetables, apart from having high nutritional value, also contain considerable amounts of dietary fibre and other components, which may affect physico-chemical properties of fermented milks, e.g. viscosity, texture, susceptibility to syneresis, flavour profile etc. The present work was established to study the effect of selected vegetables addition on the rheological, textural, micr...

This first part of a two-part study focuses on the technical feasibility of applying radio frequency (RF) heating at different temperatures (58, 65 and 72 °C) to a stirred yoghurt gel after culturing. For comparison, a convectional (CV) heating process was also applied. The aim was to increase the yoghurt shelf-life, by preventing post-acidification and the growth of yeasts and molds. At the sa...

Yoghurt is a unique fermented dairy product, consumed throughout the world and the trend ofconsumption is increasing due to its unique health benefits. Yoghurt mix is often supplemented with MSNF(milk solids-non-fat), it may contain as much as 5.7% unhydrolysed lactose. Lactose can be hydrolysed withan enzyme lactase. Deficiency of lactase in lactose-intolerant persons leads to gastrointestinal...

Our main goal in this project is to study the causes and finding solutions for both the hydrolytic and the oxidative rancidity that can be produced during condensed yoghurt production. The re pasteurization of the pasteurized milk and the addition of different types of antioxidants (ascorbic acid and propyl gallate) were used to achieve this goal. Chemical, physical, microbial and sensory tests...

The microbiological, rheological, and sensory properties of set-type yoghurt were investigated in the presence camel cow casein hydrolysates produced by action trypsin enzymes. significantly decreased fermentation coagulation time production. rate pH decrease was (p < 0.05) higher samples treated with hydrolysate comparison control samples. Compared control, cell growth culture increased sup...
