AbstractObjectives:To describe and compare the consumption of dairy products in cohorts included in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC).Methods:Data from single 24-hour dietary recall interviews collected through a highly standardised computer-based program (EPIC-SOFT) in 27 redefined centres in 10 European countries between 1995 and 2000. From a total random sample of 36 900, 22 924 women and 13 031 men were selected after exclusion of subjects under 35 and over 74 years of age.Results:A high total consumption of dairy products was reported in most of the centres in Spain and in the UK cohort sampled from the general population, as well as in the Dutch, Swedish and Danish centres. A somewhat low consumption was reported in the Greek centre and in some of the Italian centres (Ragusa and Turin). In all centres and for both sexes, milk constituted the dairy sub-group with the largest proportion (in grams) of total dairy consumption, followed by yoghurt and other fermented milk products, and cheese. Still, there was a wide range in the contributions of the different dairy sub-groups between centres. The Spanish and Nordic centres generally reported a high consumption of milk, the Swedish and Dutch centres reported a high consumption of yoghurt and other fermented milk products, whereas the highest consumption of cheese was reported in the French centres.Conclusion:The results demonstrate both quantitative and qualitative disparities in dairy product consumption among the EPIC centres. This offers a sound starting point for analyses of associations between dairy intake and chronic diseases such as cancer.

Abstract Introduction Q fever in dairy cattle has been investigated in Latvia since 2012. In 2015, 10.7% of farms tested positive for the DNA of C. burnetii, its aetiological agent, in bulk tank milk. The presence of C. burnetii DNA and infectious bacteria in dairy products has been assessed in several countries, and because Latvian milk may contain them, parallel assessment in this country is recommended. Accordingly, the present study tested shop and farm retail dairy products from Latvia and included foreign products for comparison. Material and Methods Investigation was carried out of 187 samples of a diverse range of dairy products from 41 Latvian milk producers. Twenty-six comparable samples pooled from Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland and Spain were also included. The all-countries total number of fermented milk products was 160. Special attention was paid to products that could be more attractive to children because of their added chocolate, cacao, berry and fruit content. DNA was extracted and amplification of C. burnetii IS1111 was performed using a commercial PCR kit. Results Overall positivity was 60.56%. Domestic products were positive more often (60.96%) than foreign ones (57.69%). Only 26.67% of unpasteurised Latvian cow’s milk samples were positive whereas 76.47% of pasteurised equivalents and 63.13% of fermented milk products were. Sweetened and fruit-containing samples were 71.43% positive. Conclusion The shedding of C. burnetii via milk should be monitored and only milk from healthy animals allowed for sale for direct human consumption without pasteurisation. Raw milk quality and the effectiveness of industrial heat treatment and pasteurisation methods in Latvia and other countries should be carefully assessed to ensure adequate consumer health protection.

In this study, the effects of kombucha inoculum as non-conventional starter culture on fatty acids composition of fermented milk, compared to a commercial probiotic (ABT-7) and yoghurt (YF-L812) starter cultures, during 21 days of storage was investigated. Fatty acids composition was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after the previous extraction of lipids and derivatization. The atherogenic (AI) and thrombogenic (TI) indices determined on the basis of fatty acids composition have been used for evaluation of the nutritive lipid quality of the fermented dairy products. The most significant levels of fatty acids in fermented milk products were palmitic, followed by oleic, stearic and myristic fatty acids. Fermented milk products were characterized by low atherogenic (2.14-2.39) and thrombogenic (2.91-3.18) indices, suggesting their consumption could have a favorable effect on human health. The AI and TI were comparable during the storage of fermented milk samples. Starter culture did not affect the health-related fatty acid composition of fermented milk products during storage.

Exopolysaccharides Production

Currently, much attention is being paid for improving the texture of food by screening the new exopolysaccharides (EPS) producing strains. The aim of the present work was to isolate EPS producing Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains from raw milk and milk products samples. Total of thirty eight dahi, lassi and raw milk samples were collected from different villages and towns of Karnal and Delhi District. The samples were plated on milk agar and colonies showing ropy polysaccharides production were subjected to biochemical test. After molecular identification 2 were found as <italic>S. thermophilus</italic>, 2 were <italic>Lb. rhamnosus</italic> and 2 were confirmed as <italic>Lb. fermentum</italic>. Two <italic>S. thermophilus</italic> strains (PD7 and PD11) and <italic>Lb. fermentum</italic> strains (AL6 and AD3) showed better curdling pattern, acidity, exopolysaccharides production, and sensory properties. These cultures can be used for manufacture of indigenous fermented milk products.

Milk and milk products play a vital role in human nutrition all over the world. In addition to being a nutritious food for humans, milk and milk products provide a favorable environment for the growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. Thus, this paper aims to review the microbial properties of milk and fermented milk products produced in different parts of Ethiopia. Microbial contamination may generally occur from within the udder, exterior to the udder, from the surface of milk handling and storage equipment and the traditional practice. The status of the cleanliness of the milkers could be the primary sources of the initial milk contamination. The reviewed dairy products are Milk, Ergo (naturally fermented milk), Kibe (traditional butter), Arera (defatted sour milk) and Ayib (Ethiopian cottage cheese). The existing microbial quality of dairy products produced in the rural part of Ethiopia was poor and did not meet the acceptable quality requirements. The problem was compounded from limited knowledge of the hygienic production, processing and handling of dairy products coupled with inadequate dairy processing infrastructures. Strict hygienic control measures along the value chain to improve the hygienic conditions of milk starting from production to consumption are necessary to provide safe products to the consumer.

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of marinating with fermented milk products (buttermilk and sour milk) on the physical characteristics, microbiological quality, and sensory acceptability of Rhode Island Red (RIR) hen meat after the first year of laying use. The hen breast meat was marinated with fermented dairy products, buttermilk and sour milk, by the immersion method for 12 h at 4 °C. The assessed features included the quality of raw and roasted marinated and non-marinated meat in terms of physical characteristics (marinade absorption, water absorption, pH, L*, a*, b* colour, shear strength, texture profile analysis (TPA) test), microbiological parameters, and sensory characteristics. Bacteria were identified by the mass spectrometry method (MALDI-TOF MS Biotyper). Marinating meat with fermented dairy products lightened the colour, decreased the value of shear force, reduced hardness and chewiness, and limited the growth of aerobic bacteria and Pseudomonas spp. Additionally, after heat treatment, the number of identified aerobic bacteria families in the marinated in buttermilk and marinated in sour milk groups was smaller than in the non-marinated muscle group. The sensory evaluation showed a beneficial effect of marinating with buttermilk and sour milk on the tenderness, juiciness, and colour of roasted meat.

Grain-based foods play an essential role in human nutrition. Cereal-based products contain soluble and insoluble dietary fiber, which, by reducing cholesterol levels, reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, as well as stabilize digestive functions, preventing diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Grain products supply the human body not only with energy, but also with protein – by 30-40%, b vitamins by 50-60%, and vitamin E by 80 %. In preliminary studies, 4 types of extruded grain bases were identified from buckwheat, millet, lentils and chickpeas, defined as the basis for fermented dairy products. 20 experiments were carried out in each of the variants using extruded grain bases from buckwheat, millet, lentils and chickpeas with two variants of the milk base – milk with a fat content of 2.5 and 3.2 %. mathematical models of the response function dependences on the selected factors were Obtained, which allowed determining the optimal ratio of ingredients for each of the considered variants. Developed formulation of two dairy products with grain-based extruded from millet based on milk with 2.5% fat and extruded grain-based chickpea based on dairy products with fat content of 3.2%. According to physical and chemical parameters, all samples of fermented milk products met the requirements regulatory documents.

Abstract Consumption of yogurt and other fermented products is associated with improved health outcomes. Although dairy consumption is included in most dietary guidelines, there have been few specific recommendations for yogurt and cultured dairy products. A qualitative systematic review was conducted to determine the effect of consumption of fermented milk products on gastrointestinal and cardiovascular health, cancer risk, weight management, diabetes and metabolic health, and bone density using PRISMA guidelines. English language papers in PubMed were searched, with no date restrictions. In total, 1057 abstracts were screened, of which 602 were excluded owing to lack of appropriate controls, potential biases, and experimental design issues. The remaining 455 papers were independently reviewed by both authors and 108 studies were included in the final review. The authors met regularly to concur, through consensus, on relevance, methods, findings, quality, and conclusions. The included studies were published between 1979 and 2017. From the 108 included studies, 76 reported a favorable outcome of fermented milks on health and 67 of these were considered to be positive or neutral quality according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Quality Criteria Checklist. Of the 32 remaining studies, the study outcomes were either not significant (28) or unfavorable (4), and most studies (18) were of neutral quality. A causal relationship exists between lactose digestion and tolerance and yogurt consumption, and consistent associations exist between fermented milk consumption and reduced risk of breast and colorectal cancer and type 2 diabetes, improved weight maintenance, and improved cardiovascular, bone, and gastrointestinal health. Further, an association exists between prostate cancer occurrence and dairy product consumption in general, with no difference between fermented and unfermented products. This article argues that yogurt and other fermented milk products provide favorable health outcomes beyond the milk from which these products are made and that consumption of these products should be encouraged as part of national dietary guidelines.

Dietary Nutrition

Given the complexity of the baby food market, which is mainly made of cow's milk, as well as the chemical composition and biological properties of Mare's milk (saumal) are prerequisites for using the national food product with known curative properties in the diet of children of all ages. In this regard, the solution of the issues of widespread use of Mare's milk in the nutrition of children, as well as the production of baby food based on Mare's milk is under study and research in Russia, Europe and Kazakhstan. The problem of providing children with high-quality biologically complete food is of great social and economic importance, especially in connection with the deterioration of the environmental situation in many regions of the country, the widespread violation of the food structure. According to the analysis of literature sources, the study of the directed impact on the quality of combined products of children's and dietary nutrition through additives is an actual direction both in the CIS countries and in the far abroad. The quality of fermented milk products and their specific properties depend on the microbiological processes that occur during production. The composition of the microflora of a fermented milk product determines its taste qualities and plays a major role in their formation. The main advantage of fermented milk products is the presence of living microorganisms that contribute to the normalization of intestinal microflora, inhibit the development of putrid microorganisms, form the human immune system, and improve metabolism. In addition, lactic acid drinks, in comparison with ordinary milk, have almost complete digestibility. Therefore, the quality of fermented milk products and their value for human health depend on the presence of living microflora. When choosing sourdough, it is necessary to pay attention to the method of application, the specific composition of the microflora, since the taste and consistency of fermented milk products depends on the composition of sourdough. In this regard, the aim of the work was to conduct research on biotechnological processes in the production of combined dairy products from Mare's milk, enriched with plant additives for children's and dietary nutrition using a consortium of bacterial cultures. The scientific novelty of the work is the development of optimal biotechnological modes of production of dairy products for children and dietary nutrition based on Mare's milk with a biologically active additive from plant raw materials and a consortium of microorganisms. The study determined the influence of type and amount of herbal supplements on the physical and chemical indicators of milk-vegetable mixture to the combined production of fermented milk products for infant and dietetic foods. The selection of starter cultures for the production of products for children's and dietary nutrition based on Mare's milk was carried out, and the optimal dose of adding plant supplements to the milk mixture in the amount of 10% was established.

Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) can be produced by the gut microbiota from dietary substrates and is associated with cardiovascular disease. While dairy products contain TMAO precursors, the effect of fermented dairy on TMAO metabolism remains unclear. We used plasma and urine samples collected for two randomised cross-over studies to evaluate the effects of fermented dairy consumption on TMAO metabolism. In Study 1, thirteen healthy young men tested a yogurt and an acidified milk during postprandial tests and a two-week daily intervention. In Study 2, ten healthy adults tested milk and cheese during postprandial tests. TMAO and five related metabolites were measured in plasma and urine by LC-MS/MS and NMR. Faecal microbiota composition was assessed in Study 1 (16S rRNA metagenomics sequencing). Fermented milk products were associated with lower postprandial TMAO responses than non-fermented milks in urine (Study 1, p = 0.01; Study 2, p = 0.02) and in plasma, comparing yogurt and acidified milk (Study 1, p = 0.04). Daily consumption of dairy products did not differentially affect fasting TMAO metabolites. Significant correlations were observed between microbiota taxa and circulating or urinary TMAO concentrations. Fermentation of dairy products appear, at least transiently, to affect associations between dairy products and circulating TMAO levels.
