Milk is a part of many food products. In the expert assessment of the quality of raw materials, primary attention should be paid to its microbiological safety, since poisoning with dairy products is a common cause of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The experiment has been carried out on the base in the Teaching and Production Livestock Farm in the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education “Russian State Agrarian University – Moscow Agricultural Academy named after K. A. Timiryazev” (Moscow). The purpose of the research was to improve the quality indicators of raw milk and yogurt. The method of processing raw milk, which reduces the number of potentially dangerous microorganisms in the products produced from it, has been studied. During the experiment the influence of electromagnetic radiation on organoleptic and physic and chemical parameters has been observed; the quantitative and qualitative composition of milk and yogurt microorganisms has been evaluated. The samples of raw materials had a uniform consistency without sediment and flakes, the color was milky white, and the smell was characteristic of natural cow’s milk. Electromagnetic treatment did not affect the main elements of the chemical composition of milk: the mass fraction of dry substances, fat, protein and lactose. In the experimental samples of raw milk after electromagnetic pulses treatment, the decrease in the growth rate of microorganisms including Quantity of Mesophilic Aerobic and Facultative Anaerobic Microorganisms (QMAFAnM), yeast and mold, has been noted. No bacteria of the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coligroups have been found in the milk samples. The electromagnetic field had the negligible effect on the amount of lactic acid microorganisms in the raw material. During the experiment, there was no negative influence of electromagnetic radiation on the organoleptic, physic and chemical and sanitary-hygienic parameters of yogurt. The issues of ensuring the microbiological safety of raw milk have been described and the method for optimizing the sanitary and hygienic parameters of yogurt in accordance with the current requirements of regulatory documents has been suggest in the article.

Marinating is one of the most common ways of processing vegetable raw materials. The use of new, non-traditional types of raw materials, in particular root chicory, should be considered as one of the directions for expanding the assortment of marinated products, increasing its consumer properties. Researches in this direction were conducted in 2018 on the basis of the Department of Technology for storing and processing fruits and vegetables of the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education of the Russian State Agrarian University-Moscow Agricultural Academy named after K.A. Timiryazev. The object of research was the root chicory varieties Yaroslavsky. The scheme of experience included biochemical studies of raw materials, laboratory production of weakly acidic and acidic pickles using in the formulation of acetic essence, wine and apple vinegar, organoleptic and biochemical studies of the finished product. Studies have shown that the production of pickled products from chicory allows you to get products with high organoleptic characteristics. Improving the quality of pickled products is promoted by replacing the vinegar essence with apple or wine vinegar in the recipe - the taste becomes less sharp, the aroma is enriched with fruit tones. Neutral taste of chicory with a slightly bitter aftertaste is optimally combined with the high content of acetic acid (up to 0.9%), characteristic of sour pickles. Sour marinade using tartaric acid in the recipe according to the results of tasting received the highest score - 9.8 points on a 10-point scale.

  The article is devoted to the study of the chemical composition, physical and thermal-pfysical characteristics of damp apple pomaces and the identifying patterns of influence of drying temperature the functional composition and gel-forming ability of pectin. The research is aimed at obtaining initial data for the subsequent calculation of the main technological, hydro-mechanical, thermal, structural and economic characteristics of devices for drying the plant raw materials, ensuring the environmental safety and high quality of pectin-containing raw materials, the reducing heat and energy costs. As a result of the study of the thermal characteristics of apple pomaces, the critical points (temperature conductivity – 16.5 x 10-8 m2/s, thermal conductivity – 0.28 W/m K, heat capacity – 1627 j/(kg K)) at a humidity of 56 % are determined, which characterizing the transition from the extraction of weakly bound moisture to the extraction of moisture with strong bonds (colloidal, adsorption). It was found that the pomaces obtained from apples of late ripening have a higher content of solids (21-23 %), soluble pectin and protopectin (2.5-4.5 %). Dried pomaces obtained from apple varieties of late ripening contain up to 25 % pectin, which allow us to recommend them as a source of raw materials for the production of pectin. The optimum modes of preliminary washing of raw materials are offered, allowing to the remove the ballast substances as much as possible. It is established that when the drying temperature increases, the destructive processes are catalyzed: the strength of the pectin jelly and the uronide component and the degree of pectin esterification are reduced. The optimum drying temperature of damp apple pomaces is 80 0C, at which the quality of pectin extracted from the dried raw materials is maintained as much as possible. It is shown that the most effective for the pectin production is a fraction with a particle size of 3-5 mm, which allow us to extract up to 71 % of pectin from raw materials.


Domiati cheese is the most popular brand of cheese ripened in brine in the Middle East in terms of consumed quantities. This study was performed to investigate the impact of the microbiological quality of the used raw materials, the applied traditional processing techniques and ripening period on the quality and safety of the produced cheese. Three hundred random composite samples were collected from three factories at Fayoum Governorate, Egypt. Collected samples represent twenty-five each of: raw milk, table salt, calf rennet, microbial rennet, water, environmental air, whey, fresh cheese, ripened cheese & swabs from: worker hands; cheese molds and utensils; tanks. All samples were examined microbiologically for Standard Plate Count (SPC), coliforms count, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) count, total yeast & mould count, presence of E. coli, Salmonellae and Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes). The mean value of SPC, coliforms, S. aureus and total yeast & mould counts ranged from (79×102 CFU/m3 for air to 13×108 CFU/g for fresh cheese), (7×102 MPN/ cm2 for tank swabs to 80×106 MPN/ml for raw milk), (9×102 CFU/g for salt to 69×106 CFU/g for fresh cheese) and (2×102 CFU/cm2 for hand swabs to 60×104 CFU/g for fresh cheese), respectively. Whereas, E. coli, Salmonella and L. monocytogenes failed to be detected in all examined samples. There were significant differences in all determined microbiological parameters (p ≤0.05) between fresh and ripened cheese which may be attributed to different adverse conditions such as water activity, pH, salt content and temperature carried out to improve the quality of the product.

Sherry wine vinegar is a Spanish gourmet product under Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). Before a vinegar can be labeled as Sherry vinegar, the product must meet certain requirements as established by its PDO, which, in this case, means that it has been produced following the traditional solera and criadera ageing system. The quality of the vinegar is determined by many factors such as the raw material, the acetification process or the aging system. For this reason, mainly producers, but also consumers, would benefit from the employment of effective analytical tools that allow precisely determining the origin and quality of vinegar. In the present study, a total of 48 Sherry vinegar samples manufactured from three different starting wines (Palomino Fino, Moscatel, and Pedro Ximénez wine) were analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The spectroscopic data were combined with unsupervised exploratory techniques such as hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA), as well as other nonparametric supervised techniques, namely, support vector machine (SVM) and random forest (RF), for the characterization of the samples. The HCA and PCA results present a clear grouping trend of the vinegar samples according to their raw materials. SVM in combination with leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) successfully classified 100% of the samples, according to the type of wine used for their production. The RF method allowed selecting the most important variables to develop the characteristic fingerprint (“spectralprint”) of the vinegar samples according to their starting wine. Furthermore, the RF model reached 100% accuracy for both LOOCV and out-of-bag (OOB) sets.
