Dairy Fermentation

Bacteria of the genus Lactobacillus have been employed in food fermentation for decades. Fermented dairy products, such as cheese and yogurt, are products of high value known as functional food and widely consumed due to their positive health impact. Fermentation was originally based on conversion of carbohydrate into organic acids, mostly lactic acid, intended to preserve nutrient in milk, but then it develops in other disclosure of capabilities associates with health benefit. It is expected that during the manufacture of fermented dairy products, some bioactive peptides from milk protein are released through proteolysis. Lactobacilli have been recognized and received increasing attention as probiotics by balancing gut microbial population. Information of molecular mechanisms of genome sequence focusing on the microbial that normally inhabit gut may explain as to how these bacteria positively give impact on improving host health. Recent post-biotics concept revealed that health benefit can also be associated after bacterial lysis. This mini review focuses on the contribution of lactobacilli in dairy fermentation with health-promoting properties on human health.

Fermented Dairy

Fermented dairy products are known for their high nutritional and therapeutic value and are also having excellent sensory characteristics, which make them popular throughout the world. Most of the characteristics of fermented products can be attributed to the activity of their starter culture. The starter microorganisms, in the course of their metabolism, elaborate various compounds and enzymes, which impart desirable properties to the product. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are the most common starter bacterial group used extensively in fermentation of dairy products. Lactic acid bacteria synthesize different compounds belonging to classes of organic acids, gases, bacteriocins, flavoring agents, biothickners, nutrients, etc. Molecules within each class vary for each species and even within strains. The functionalities from such novel starter cultures include improved nutritional value, sensory characteristics, and therapeutic benefits. These starter cultures are thus important for development of functional fermented and probiotic products. This chapter explores functional starter cultures for fermented dairy products.

Abstract Background Previous studies have suggested that the consumption of probiotic fermented dairy products (PFDP) may have a protective effect on respiratory tract infections (RTIs). However, the results of studies are inconclusive. We aimed to systematically investigate the effect of PFDP on RTIs by performing a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods PubMed and Scopus databases were systematically searched up to October 2020 to identify eligible RCTs. Meta-analysis outcomes were risk of incidence of upper (URTIs ) and lower (LRTIs ) respiratory tract infections. A random-effects model was used to pool the relative risks (RR) and corresponding 95 % confidence intervals (CI) for outcomes following conception of PFDP. Results A total of 22 RCTs, with a total sample size of 10,190 participants, were included in this meta-analysis. Compared with placebo, consumption of PFDP had a significant protective effect against RTIs in the overall analysis (RR = 0.81, 95 %CI: 0.74 to 0.89) and in children (RR = 0.82, 95 %CI: 0.73 to 0.93), adults (RR = 0.81, 95 %CI: 0.66 to 1.00), and elderly population (RR = 0.78, 95 %CI: 0.61 to 0.98). The significant decreased risk of RTIs was also observed for URTIs (RR = 0.83, 95 %CI: 0.73 to 0.93), while, this effect was marginal for LRTIs (RR = 0.78, 95 %CI: 0.60 to 1.01, P = 0.06). The disease-specific analysis showed that PFDP have a protective effect on pneumonia (RR = 0.76, 95 %CI: 0.61 to 0.95) and common cold (RR = 0.68, 95 %CI: 0.49 to 0.96). Conclusions Consumption of PFDP is a potential dietary approach for the prevention of RTIs.

  Lactobacilli are essential and important biological objects used in food pro-duction and medicine. One of the sufficient problems is fast, reliable and highly specific identification of lactobacilli in the scientific research and cur-rent production control. We represent two species-specific real-time PCR in the present study to discriminate L. rhamnosus and L. casei basing on the unique peptidoglycan-hydrolase genes p40 and p75 respectively. PCR pri-mers and probes were designed to provide high specificity discrimination via high temperature of PCR annealing stage. High efficiency of the reactions is provided by the size of amplified DNA fragments minimization. Reliable re-producibility of the target sequences amplification and fluorescence detec-tion provide a basis for the future creation of industrial test-systems for op-erational control in the production of fermented dairy products.

Subject of study. In the Ukrainian market, most ща fermented dairy products are traditional and ерун фку in great demand among various segments of the population. However, for a certain category of consumers, this segment of dairy products is not recommended for use due to lactase deficiency, which prevents the breakdown and assimilation of lactose containing dairy products. Consumption of dairy products causes discomfort and disorders in the gastrointestinal tract and malaise of such people. This review article is based on the results of basic and applied research of foreign and domestic scientists in this area, it indicates ways to solve this problem and the feasibility of the presence of these products in the diet of this group of people. The aim of the work is a systematic analysis of modern scientific information on the ways to reduce lactose content by the use of fermenting preparations based on strains with β galactosidase activity and integrated use of bacterial cultures and enzyme preparation of β galactosidase in the production of fermented dairy products. Results and discussion. It is shown that there are strains of microorganisms that have a sufficiently high β-galactosidase activity. However, the actual breakdown of lactose occurs in small quantities. The analysis of the literature showed that most often for the production of milk and dairy products with low lactose or lactose-free content, the enzyme lactase is used, which breaks down lactose into individual sugars – glucose and galactose. And the combination of microorganisms and enzyme preparation allows expanding the range of products and meet the needs of lactose intolerant consumers. Scope of research results. The obtained search results will be used in the development of technologies for fermented dairy products with low lactose or lactose-free content.
