We sought to determine if the time, within a production day, that a cheese is manufactured has an influence on the microbial community present within that cheese. To facilitate this, 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing was used to elucidate the microbial community dynamics of brine-salted continental-type cheese in cheeses produced early and late in the production day. Differences in the microbial com...

OBJECTIVES A high soft drink intake may promote, whereas intake of cheese may reduce risk of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), but will cheese intake blunt the soft drink versus MetS association? DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING The Oslo Health Study. PARTICIPANTS Among the 18 770 participants of the Oslo Health Study there were 5344 men and 6150 women having data on cheese and soft dri...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are abundant in bovine milk and milk derived from other livestock, and they have functional roles in infants and in the secretion process of mammary glands. However, few studies have evaluated miRNAs in dairy processes, such as during cheese making and ripening. Thus, we investigated the characteristics of milk-derived miRNAs during the manufacturing and ripening of Camembert...

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...

Functional attributes of cheese such as shreddability and melt are dramatically affected by cheese moisture level. Previous work by our group has demonstrated that the addition of Streptococcus thermophilus MR1C, a strain that produces a large capsular exopolysaccharide (EPS+), to cheese results in a significant increase in the cheese moisture level. The objectives of this study were to determi...

The genome sequence of Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from ovine cheese is presented here. This bacterium is proposed as a starter strain, named 19L3, for Slovenská bryndza cheese, a traditional Slovak cheese fulfilling European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) requirements.

1 What is the ideal milk composition for cheese manufacture? How close is Wisconsin milk to that ideal, and how does it compare with milk from other leading dairy states? What can Wisconsin's dairy farmers and cheese processors do to ensure that milk produced in the state improves the state's cheese industry from farm to wholesale product? These questions are addressed in this report, which sup...

449 Abstract: Low-fat Edam cheese was manufactured using conventional cheese-making procedures using low-fat milk (1.5% fat). The cheese samples were aged for six months at 5 to 6°C. The cheese was analyzed for biochemical characteristics and peptide content. The peptide contents were determined with reverse phase chromatography. The association property of proteins and peptides in the soluble ...

An electronic nose based on coated piezoelectric quartz crystals was used to distinguish cheese made from ewes' milk, and to distinguish cheese varieties. Two sensors coated with Nafion and Carbowax could certify half the ewes' cheese samples, exclude 32 cheeses made from cow's milk and to classify half of the ewes' cheese samples as possibly authentic. Two other sensors, coated with polyvinylp...

This study was conducted to determine the survival of Escherichia coli O157:H7 during the ripening period of herby cheese made traditionally from raw cow milk. The cheese milk was inoculated with E. coli O157:H7 at the level of 3 log and 5 log cfu/mL, and then both manufactured herby cheeses were divided into two groups equally. The herby cheeses were stored by using two different methods for r...
