cheese has high nutritional value in human health although is naturally poor in essential fatty acids. essential fatty acids revealed crucial roles in nutritional diet and have been suggested as disease prevention agent. protulaca oleracea (purslane) has considerable amounts of omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids as well as magnesium, potassium and vitamin c. the aim of this study is production and ch...

in this study, the effect of addition of three different levels of microbial lipase (0, 4, and 8.0 g lipase in 100 kg milk) was investigated on the physiochemical properties, free fatty acids, textural properties, and microstructure of lighvan cheese during ripening. the addition of lipase did not significantly affect ph, acidity, moisture, and salt content of lighvan cheese, but increased its ...

background & aim: purslane (portulaca oleracea l.), belongs to the portulacaceace family, grows in many parts of iran. results of previous studies were indicated purslane is a rich source of essential fatty acids of omega-3 and omega-6.  portulaca oleracea is a widespread weed, being the eighth common plants of the world. the aim of current study was to compare the essential fatty acids com...

The aim of this paper was to optimize the level of fortification of omega-3 fatty acid into processed cheese spread. The fortification level of 5 to 15% with 5% interval with flaxseed oil, algal oil and fish oil emulsions were incorporated into processed cheese spreads.15% of fortification level was selected for flaxseed oil and algal oil and 10% was selected for fish oil emulsion based on sens...

Traditional Lighvan cheese is a semi-hard cheese which has a popular market in Iran and neighboring countries. The aim of this study was evaluating the contamination of milks used for Lighvan cheese making with Listeria monocytogenes. Raw milk samples were randomly collected from different cheese producing factories (sampling carried out from large milk tanks used cheese making in factories). I...

The addition of vegetable oils to the diets of dairy goats is an alternative to supplemental feeding during the dry period and improves the lipid profile of milk and by-products. Cheeses were produced using milk from cross bred goats (Saanen×Alpina) fed diets enriched with 4% vegetable oil (faveleira, sesame or castor), the fatty acid profile of cheeses was studied. Supplementation with vegetab...

Biogenic amines (BA) are nitrogenous compounds that possess biological activity. The source of production is the microbial decarboxylation of amino acids. This compounds are found in various types of cheese. The aim of this work was to evaluate the BA content of some traditional cheeses in West Azerbaijan province Iran. For this purpose, 70 samples of Koopeh, 10 samples of Lighvan and 5 samples...

milk and dairy products are in diet almost every day. milk fat contains 70% of saturated fatty acids which can cause an increase in total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and the risk of cardiovascular diseases. therefor, modification of fat composition at dairy products such as yoghurt seems necessary. walnut has high amount of essential fatty acids, anti oxidants and other beneficial ...
