This study is concerned with the effect of concentration of transglutaminase (TG), content of milk fat and starter culture type (probiotic and kombucha) on the structure of fermented milk products. The application of TG significantly improved textural characteristics of the fermented milk products. The firmness of the samples produced from milk with 0.1g100g-1 and 0.9g100g-1 fat content with probiotic starter were by 33% and 17.6% higher, respectively, compared to the control samples. During ten days of storage, the value of the hysteresis loop area of all samples produced from milk with 0.9g100g-1 fat content with TG addition, decreased by 14%.

The possibilities of manufacturing fermented milk beverages by applying kombucha inoculum concentrated by evaporation and with addition of transglutaminase have been investigated. The main aims of this study were to investigate influence of concentrated kombucha inoculum and the addition of transglutaminase (TG) on textural, rheological and sensory properties of set and stirred fermented milk beverages. The results showed that the addition of transglutaminase had a great influence on textural characteristics and rheological properties of kombucha fermented milk beverages. Firmness and consistency of kombucha fermented milk products were significantly increased with the incorporation of TG compared to the control sample. Set samples with TG addition had approximately 90 % higher hysteresis loop area compared to stirred samples, while hysteresis loop area of stirred samples without TG was 60 % lower compared to set samples. The enzymatic treatment of milk with TG improved texture, rheology and sensorial characteristics of set and stirred fermented milk beverages obtained by concentrated kombucha inoculum.

The antioxidant activity of fermented milk products obtained by using kombucha starter produced by fermentation on sweetened wild thyme extract was investigated. The starter was added to milk containing 0.8, 1.6, and 2.8% milk fat, at fermentation temperature of 37, 40, and 43°C. The fermentation process was terminated when the pH reached 4.5. Antioxidant activities to DPPH and hydroxyl radicals, the contents of MUFAs, PUFAs, vitamin C, and sensory mark, were monitored using the response surface methodology (RSM) and the method of desired function. Kombucha fermented milk products containing wild thyme (WT) showed opposite antioxidant response to DPPH and hydroxyl radicals in terms of milk fat. Optimum processing conditions for WT products in terms of antioxidant activity were: milk fat 2.78% and process temperature 37°C. In order to obtain WT products with a high sensory mark, these conditions are completely different (milk fat 1.10% and process temperature 43°C).

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.

This paper investigates the antioxidant activity of fermented milk products obtained by kombucha fermentation. Two starter cultures were used as follows: starter obtained after kombucha fermentation on sweetened stinging nettle extract; as well as starter obtained after kombucha fermentation on sweetened winter savory extract. The starters were added to milk with 0.8, 1.6 and 2.8% milk fat. Fermentation was carried out at 37, 40 and 43oC and stopped when the pH reached 4.5. Antioxidant activity to hydroxyl and DPPH radicals was monitored using response surface methodology. Kombucha fermented milk products with stinging nettle (KSN) and with winter savory (KWS) showed the same antioxidant response to hydroxyl and different response to DPPH radicals. Synergetic effect of milk fat and fermentation temperature to antioxidant activity to hydroxyl radicals for both types of kombucha fermented milk products (KSN and KWS) was established. Optimum processing conditions in term of antioxidant activity are: milk fat around 2.8% and process temperature around 41 and 43?C for KSN and KWS respectively.

A bacteriocin-producing lactic culture with antilisterial activity was isolated from beans and identified as Pediococcus pentosaceus CFR B19. It was able to grow and produce bacteriocin at 41 °C but not at 50 °C. This isolate was found to be sensitive to vancomycin and produced heat-stable (at 121 °C for 15 min) bacteriocin. Molecular weight of the purified bacteriocin was found to be ∼4.8 kDa. This isolate can be used as a starter culture or co-culture in fermented milk products and the bacteriocin can be used as a natural preservative in various food products.

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.

In this investigation, kombucha fermented milk products were produced from milk with 1.6% milk fat using 10% (v/v) kombucha inoculums cultivated on the extracts of peppermint and stinging nettle. The fermentation process was conducted at temperatures of 37, 40 and 43?C. Fermentation was stopped when the pH value of 4.5 was reached. The fermentation process was shortened with an increase of temperature. Physical characteristics of the fermented products were determined by using standard methods of analysis. Textural characteristics were determined by texture profile analysis. The obtained products showed good physical and textural characteristics, typical for the yoghurt-like products.

Baromembrane methods, in particular, nanofiltration, open up broad opportunities in the field of obtaining dairy products with a high protein content in terms of quality and energy saving. This paper describes the feasibility of using buttermilk and cheese whey concentrates obtained by nanofiltration in the production of fermented milk products. The physicochemical, rheological and organoleptic studies of nanofiltration concentrates of buttermilk and cheese whey made it possible to select concentrates with a mass fraction of dry substances of 20% for further research. Electron microscopic studies of the microstructure of buttermilk, whey and their concentrates with a mass fraction of dry substances of 20% showed that when buttermilk was concentrated by nanofiltration, the average diameter of dispersed particles did not increase and amounted to (130 ± 30) nm. The grid cells size decreased by 3.2 times; in serum concentration, the particle size increased by 1.7 times with a decrease in the grid cells size by 1.3 times. The obtained data make it possible to predict the positive effect of this concentration method on the consistency of fermented milk products. The use of the combined milk base with a ratio of buttermilk concentrate (20% dry matter) to whey concentrate (20% dry matter) of 50:50 and 75:25 is substantiated, providing a complete protein content of 4.4–5.6% in fermented milk products. A high rate of acid formation and a good water-holding capacity of acid clots were established when fermenting with a starter culture containing thermophilic streptococcus and acidophilic bacillus in a ratio of 4:1. The obtained results make it possible to expand the range of fermented milk products with an increased mass fraction of protein for good nutrition of the population.
