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.

This study was performed to determine the influence of fermented goat and cow milk produced by the use of Bifidobacterium longum Bb-46 on pathogenic Serratia marcescens and Campylobacter jejuni strains. The correlation between the inhibitory effect and some fermentation parameters (the number of viable probiotic cells and pH of fermented milk) was also determined. Bifidobacterium longum counts and pH values were also measured in milk samples during fermentation. The results showed that the inhibitory effect of Bifidobacterium longum Bb-46 fermented goat milk on Serratia marcescens increased with the fermentation time. The highest inhibitory effect of fermented cow milk occurred in the middle course of fermentation. Statistically significant correlation between the inhibition degree of Serratia marcescens growth and pH values of fermented goat milk was noted as opposed to the correlation between the inhibition degree of Serratia marcescens growth and pH values of fermented cow milk which was not statistically significant. All samples of goat and cow fermented milk exhibited inhibitory effects on the growth of Campylobacter jejuni.

The objective of the study was to investigate the potential of concentrated fermented milk (yoghurt and kefir) from cow milk and goat milk as a natural antibacterial ingredient. Completely randomized factorial design 2x2 was used in this research. The first factor was the type of fermentation (yoghurt and kefir) and the second factor was type of milk (cow milk and goat milk). The parameters measured were composition, inhibitory test, chemical and physical test. The results showed that the type of milk had significantly affected (P<0.05) on amount of whey and antibacterial activity. Type of fermentation and milk type have a significant effect (P<0.05) on concentrate. Concentrated fermented goat milk has the higher resistance to S. aureus bacteria than concentrated fermented cow milk on the inhibitory test. The type of fermentation and milk type has no significant effect on the composition (moisture content and total solids) and chemical characteristics (pH, lactic acid and free fatty acids) of the concentrate and whey. The conclusion of this research is goat milk yoghurt concentrate was potential to used as a natural antibacterial material.

To determine which yeasts are present in the naturally fermented milks of China, 69 samples made by the nomads of Tibet were collected from the Tibetan Plateau in China. From these samples, 225 strains of yeast were isolated and identified using conventional microbiological analysis and gene sequencing analysis of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit (26S) ribosomal DNA. The results showed that the total concentration of yeasts in these samples ranged from 5.01 to 8.97 log10 colony-forming units (CFU)/mL (6.91 ± 1.02 log10 CFU/mL; mean ± SD). The number of cultivable yeasts was higher in the samples from Qinghai (7.55 ± 0.75 log10 CFU/mL) than those from Tibet (6.21 ± 0.79 log10 CFU/mL, P < 0.05). Moreover, there were 15 phylotypes in these 69 samples. Among these phylotypes, Kluyveromyces marxianus (49.3%, frequency percentage), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (62.3%), and Pichia fermentans (46.4%) appeared frequently and can be considered the most common culturable species in naturally fermented milk products. Traditional fermented Mongolian cow milk featured a wide diversity of yeast species, including Issatchenkia orientalis , Kazachstania unisporus , Rhodotorula mucilaginosa , Candida pararugosa , Torulaspora delbrueckii , Geotrichum sp., Kazachstania unisporus , Geotrichum fragrans , Debaryomyces hansenii , Yarrowia lipolytica , Trichosporon gracile , and Pichia membranifaciens . This study provides new data on yeast composition in naturally fermented milk and shows the yeast biodiversity of fermented milk products from the Tibetan Plateau of China.

The characteristics of fermented milk are affected by the type of milk used and the microorganisms involved in the fermentation process. Goat milk has been widely suggested as a possible alternative to cow milk in allergic subjects, because of the high genetic variability in alpha-s1 casein (CSN1S1) content, which is associated with different technological and nutritional properties of milk. The aim of the study was to evaluate the suitability of goat milk with low and high CSN1S1 to produce fermented milk. In addition, the performance as starter of selected Lactobacillus paracasei FS109 strain compared to no-selected L. paracasei strains was investigated. Initially, the selected L. paracasei FS109 strain was tested for adhesion ability to HT-29 and Caco-2 cells and immunomodulation effect. Then, the strain was used to produce fermented milk from goat milk with a low and high casein CSN1S1 genotype. The results indicated that greater acidifying activity was obtained for L. paracasei FS109 after 24 h of fermentation than the other two strains tested independently by the CSN1S1 genotype. L. paracasei FS109 grew well during fermentation, reaching a higher value (>8.5 log CFU/mL). Interestingly, the same strain maintained a high viable population (about 9 log CFU/mL) during the 30-day cold storage of the product. The present study shows for the first time the suitability of the goat milk with low CSN1S1 genotypes to produce fermented milk and highlight the importance of strain selection in determination of technological and beneficial traits. Combining goat milk with low CSN1S1 and selected strains could be a strategy of improving traditional and functional fermented milk market.

Different methods have been used to detect milk adulteration, but in recent years the use of nanomaterials has been introduced as an interesting tool, due to their optical properties. A gold nanoparticle (AuNP) probe application was developed in order to evaluate milk adulteration. The methodology relies on the colorimetric differentiation and the participation profiles of the hybridization DNA sequence with the AuNPs. Various concentrations, from 0.01 (traces) to 50%, of cows&rsquo; milk in goats&rsquo; milk samples were prepared for DNA extraction, further identification with the AuNPs and comparison with a conventional PCR. Also, a total of 40 dairy products from goat milk, commonly consumed in Greece, were tested. Negative and goat reaction mixtures showed a purplish coloured solution with a peak at &gt; 570 nm, while samples containing bovine DNA had an absorbance closer to the characteristic peak of the AuNPs at 520-525 nm. Presence of bovine milk was detected even at traces level, achieving a detection level comparable to those achieved by conventional PCR. The use of AuNPs in milk products, provides a low-cost and easy-to-perform method and offers the possibility to detect fraudulent practices in various food matrices.

Fermentation serves a key role in inhibiting spoilage microorganism through acidification and production of antimicrobial compounds. The technological information on properties of Streptococcus infantarius sub sp. infantarius which is predominant in most African fermented is dairy products very little. This study was therefore carried out to determine the functionality of selected African Streptococci strains in fermented dairy products. Pasteurized milk samples from camels and cows were inoculated with different strains and a selected combination at a rate of 3% v/v and incubated at different temperatures of 25 oC, 30 oC, 37 oC, and 45 oC for 9 hours. Analysis was done after every 3 hours for pH and titratable acidity while viscosity was done after incubation and cooling of the product. The different fermented milk samples were subsequently evaluated for consumer acceptability. Milk inoculated with both African type Streptococcus thermophillus (146A8.2) and Streptococcus infantarius sub sp. infantarius CJ 18 (9377), and incubated for nine hours recorded the highest amount of titratable acidity of 0.97 for the camel milk and had the least pH value of 4.12 for cow milk compared to the other strains. The cow milk had the highest viscosity level of 59.64 cPs compared to camel milk which was 29.44 cPs. The levels of titratable acidity and viscosity depended on the strain and incubation temperature. The African type Streptococcus thermophillus (146A8.2) and Streptococcus infantarius sub sp. infantarius CJ 18 (9377), isolated from fermented camel milk had good technological properties that are useful as starter culture for development of fermented milk products.

Nuwara Eliya district is the leading fresh milk producing area in Sri Lanka. In the district, pesticides are widely applied for intensive cultivation of vegetables which leads to contamination of water and material used to feed cows. Contamination and health risk hazards of organophosphorus pesticide residues in milk and dairy products originated in the district were studied. Identification and quantification of eleven commonly used pesticides in 50 milk samples and 12 dairy product samples were performed using standard analytical methods and GC-MS technique. Results revealed that fresh milk contained residues of Prothiofos (0.0568±0.037 mg/kg), Diazinon (0.0378±0.009 mg/kg), Chlorpyrifos (0.0264±0.004 mg/kg), Profenofos (0.196±0.099 mg/kg), Fipronil (0.1906±0.188 mg/kg), Phenthoate (0.1012±0.110mgkg), Dimethoate (0.1196±0.201 mg/kg) and Tebuconazole (0.062±0.069 mg/kg) at higher levels than the recommended maximum residue levels (MRLs) of the World Health Organization. Sterilized milk (0.0115±0.000 mg/kg) and fermented milk (0.022±0.004 mg/kg) contained higher levels of Profenofos than the MRLs. Higher levels of Fipronil than MRLs were observed in pasteurized milk (0.086±0 mg/kg) and fermented milk (0.014±0.000 mg/kg) samples. Phenthoate at higher levels than MRL was reported in pasteurized milk (0.3645±0.402 mg/kg), sterilized milk (0.1405±0.197 mg/kg) and milk powder (0.0055±0.000 mg/kg). Moreover, Dimethoate content in fermented milk (0.087±0.012 mg/kg) was higher than the MRL. Routine monitoring of the above pollutants in food items including fresh milk and value added milk products is essential to prevent, control and reduce the pollution and to minimize the health risks to consumers.

The production of fermented milk using cow milk, goat milk and a mixture of them (1:1) was evaluated. The traditional yogurt starter culture was used—Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus, along with Lactobacillus casei ATCC 393. The objective was to monitor the viability of these cultures during the storage of fermented milk at 4 °C for up to 28 days. Storage significantly affected the viability of all microorganisms and especially L. bulgaricus. All microorganisms retained viable numbers higher than 7.5 log CFU g−1, even after 4 weeks of storage, which is important to confirm the probiotic character of the product. The use of goat milk significantly affected the pH and acidity of fermented milk. More specifically, the use of goat milk led to fermented milk with lower pH values and higher acidities than fermented milk with cow milk. The sensory evaluation ascertained the overall quality of fermented milk with a mixture of cow and goat milk, which scored similar values to the commercial sample.
