Goat milk may be an alternative to cow milk to people that suffer from allergic conditions, besides presenting high digestibility. Among dairy products, fermented milk is one of the most consumed. In this category, Kefir is a fermented milk that presents functional properties. Therefore, this laboratory research aimed to obtain Kefir from goat milk added by different guava pulp concentrations (0, 5, 15 and 25 %) and evaluate its physicochemical, microbiological and sensorial characteristics through quantitative data. Data obtained from microbiological analysis evidenced food safety for consumers and probiotic potential. The pulp concentration variation changed some physicochemical parameters. Sensorially, all the samples had high positive answer levels in the acceptance test, besides the last group had high percentage of buying intention. This study demonstrates that Kefir added with the higher guava pulp concentration presents potential to be introduced in the Brazilian market.

Abstract Purpose Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are traditionally employed in the food industry. LAB strains from goat milk may also present probiotic potential, and it is fundamental to study the safety and functionality aspects which are desirable for their use in food. The objective of this study was to verify the probiotic potential of lactic bacteria isolated from goat milk. Methods The presence of safety-related virulence factors (hemolytic activity, gelatinase production, coagulase, and sensitivity to antibiotics) as well as functionality (exopolysaccharide (EPS) production, proteolytic activity, autoaggregation, gas production, survival in the gastrointestinal tract, and antimicrobial activity against bacteria that impair oral health) were determined. Result The selected LAB strains are safe against the evaluated parameters and have characteristics of possible probiotic candidates. Especially L. plantarum (DF60Mi) and Lactococcus lactis (DF04Mi) have potential to be added to foods because they have better resistance to simulated gastrointestinal conditions. In addition, they are isolated with already proven antimicrobial activity against Listeria monocytogenes, an important food-borne pathogen. DF60Mi was able to produce EPS (exopolysaccharides). LS2 and DF4Mi strains, both Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, demonstrated antimicrobial activity against S. mutans ATCC 25175, a recurrent microorganism in oral pathologies, mainly caries. Conclusion This study provides subsidies for future exploration of the potentialities of these LAB strains for both the development of new functional foods and for application in oral health.

A sporulating Aspergillus is described from a piece of Eocene amber originating from the Dominican Republic. The Aspergillus most closely resembles a form of the white spored phase of Aspergillus janus Raper and Thom. This is the first report of a fossil species of Aspergillus.
