Lactobacillus spp. are lactic acid bacteria which have important implications for the food industry due to their fermentation capacities. The aims of this research were to produce fermented goat milks with Lactobacillus plantarum B7 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus D1, isolated from Brazilian artisanal cheeses, and to evaluate their physico-chemical, microbiological and sensorial qualities during 30 days of storage at 7°C. The goat milks, fermented by B7, D1, co-culture and a Lactobacillus casei Shirota control, possessed acceptable physico-chemical characteristics to meet fermented milk standards established by Brazilian legislation and maintain the viability of Lactobacillus spp. throughout the shelf life of the products. The products were microbiologically safe. D1 fermented goat milk gave higher consumer sensory quality acceptance and purchase intention (p<0.05) than other treatments, thus Lactobacillus rhamnosus D1 is recommended for fermented goat milk production.

Produtos lácteos fermentados contêm bactérias ácido lácticas (BAL), naturalmente presentes ou adicionadas na matriz láctea como culturas iniciadoras (starters), contribuindo com aroma, textura, valor nutricional e segurança microbiológica. Lactobacillus spp., Streptococcus spp., Lactococcus spp. e Leuconostoc spp. são utilizados como culturas starters em laticínios. As BAL podem ser classificadas em mesofílicas (ex Lactococcus lactis) e termofílicas (ex Streptococcus thermophilus), e de acordo com seus metabólitos de fermentação em homofermentativas (ácido lático) e heterofermentativas (ácido lático, dióxido de carbono, diacetil e outros compostos flavorizantes). Entre as BAL há um grupo de bactérias lácticas que não fazem parte da cultura láctica (non starter lactic acid bacteria - NSLAB), que são oriundas do leite cru, do ambiente de ordenha ou da indústria formando biofilmes. As NSLAB são representadas por espécies heterofermentativas de lactobacilos mesofílicos como Lactobacillus casei spp., L. paracasei spp., L. rhamnosus spp. e L. plantarum spp., e ainda por Pediococcus spp., Leuconostoc spp. e Micrococcus spp. NSLAB termoduricas como Bacillus spp. também são relatadas. As NSLAB em queijos podem ajudar a desenvolver sabor e aroma, porém também são associadas aos defeitos em queijos e leites fermentados. Problemas como odores estranhos, sabor amargo ou muito ácido, perda de viscosidade, perda de coloração, estufamento e formação de gás são associados com a presença e contaminação por NSLAB. Assim, as BAL são importantes micro-organismos na indústria láctea, garantindo sabores e aromas aos derivados. Já a presença de NSLAB podem ser associados com defeitos em queijos e leites fermentados, sendo um problema na indústria beneficiadora.   Palavras-chave: Característica Sensorial. Leites Fermentados. Queijo. Textura.                       Abstract Fermented dairy products contain acid bacteria (BAL) naturally present or added to the dairy matrix as starter cultures (starters), contributing to aroma, texture, nutritional value and microbiological safety. Lactobacillus spp., Streptococcus spp., Lactococcus spp. and Leuconostoc spp. are used as starter dairy crops. As BAL it can be classified as mesophilic (ex: Lactococcus lactis) and thermophilic (ex: Streptococcus thermophilus), and agree with its fermentation metabolites in homofermentative (lactic acid) and heterofermentative (lactic acid, carbon dioxide, diacetyl and other flavorings). Among the BAL, there is a group of lactic bacteria that are not part of the dairy culture (non-initiating lactic acid bacteria - NSLAB) that originate from raw milk, the milking environment or the biofilm-forming industry. NSLAB is represented by heterofermentative species of mesophilic lactobacilli such as Lactobacillus casei spp., L. paracasei spp., L. rhamnosus spp. and L. plantarum spp., and also by Pediococcus spp., Leuconostoc spp. and Micrococcus spp. Termoduric NSLAB such as Bacillus spp. are also related. NSLAB in cheeses may help develop flavor and aroma, and they are also associated with defects in fermented cheeses and milks. Problems such as strange odors, bitter or very acidic taste, loss of viscosity, loss of color, establishment and gas training are associated with the presence and contamination by NSLAB. Thus,  BALs are important microorganisms in the dairy industry, contributing to the dairy flavors and aromas. The presence of NSLAB, on the other hand, can be associated with defects in fermented milk and cheese, being a problem in the processing industry.   Keywords: Cheese. Fermented Milk.

The purpose of this article is to determine the content of lactic acid bacteria in a probiotic beverage (Yakult) with a starter fermentation of Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain and to find out its benefits for digestion. In this study, the library research method was used by obtaining data and materials from journals. The author tries to describe the content of lactic acid bacteria “L. casei Shirota strain” in Yakult and its benefits for the digestive system. The results showed that the levels of L. casei Shirota strain in fermented milk were 1.27-1.70% with an average of 1.42%. In the Indonesian National Standard 01-2891-2009, the lactic acid bacteria content of L. casei Shirota in fermented milk was 0.5-2.0%. L. casei Shirota can produce lactic acid and acetic acid, so that, it can decrease intestinal pH and prevent pathogens bacteria’s growth. Probiotic beverage from fermented milk using L. casei is beneficial for consumption for its ability in inhibiting the growth and development of pathogenic bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, help the absorption of vitamins and antioxidants, eliminate toxic components contained in food, as well as producing several vitamins through the synthesis of digestive enzymes.

Abstract This study aims to determine the effects of inulin and fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) on the probiotic properties of five Lactobacillus spp. isolated from human milk. Lactobacillus spp. were isolated and identified, and the growth characteristics, acid and bile salt tolerance, antagonistic effects, and cholesterol assimilation of Lactobacillus strains were investigated in the presence of inulin and FOS. Lactobacillus casei L1 was able to utilize inulin and FOS as carbon source as well as glucose even other strains were able to use, including Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. This strain also showed high tolerance to acid and bile salt, even at pH 2.5 and 0.5% bile salt levels, respectively. Inulin and FOS promoted the antimicrobial activity of L. casei L1 against pathogenic bacteria. Cholesterol assimilation was higher than in the other and control probiotic strains in the presence inulin and FOS, which were measured as 14 and 25 mg/dL, respectively. In conclusion, L. casei L1 can use both inulin and FOS to maintain its viability both at digestive conditions and also the relevant prebiotics, and show broad antagonistic activity and cholesterol assimilation.

Background. Although Lactobacillus casei Shirota (LcS) can benefit the immune status, the effects of LcS in the immune/inflammatory responses of marathon runners has never been evaluated. Therefore, here we evaluated the effect of daily ingestion of fermented milk containing or not LcS in the systemic and upper airway immune/inflammatory responses before and after a marathon. Methods. Forty-two male marathon runners ingested a fermented milk containing 40 billion of LcS/day (LcS group, n = 20) or placebo (unfermented milk, n = 22) during 30 days pre-marathon. Immune/inflammatory parameters in nasal mucosa and serum, as well as concentrations of secretory IgA (SIgA) and antimicrobial peptides in saliva, were evaluated before and after fermented milk ingestion, immediately, 72 h, and 14 d post-marathon. Results. Higher proinflammatory cytokine levels in serum and nasal mucosa, and also lower salivary levels of SIgA and antimicrobial peptides, were found immediately post-marathon in the placebo group compared to other time points and to LcS group. In opposite, higher anti-inflammatory levels and reduced neutrophil infiltration on nasal mucosa were found in the LcS group compared to other time points and to the placebo group. Conclusion. For the first time, it is shown that LcS is able to modulate the systemic and airways immune responses post-marathon.

The development of dairy products using probiotic microorganisms has been an important focus in the food industry. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical, sensory and microbiological quality of fermented milk with addition of cupua&ccedil;u (Theobroma grandiflorum) flavor. The experimental design used was completely randomized, with five replicates, arranged in a 4 &times; 2 &times; 2 factorial scheme, consisting of fermented milk with addition of four different strains of probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus casei shirota, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus paracasei), presence and absence of cupua&ccedil;u flavor, and two evaluation times (1 and 7 days of storage). The results allowed us to conclude that the bacterial strain B (Lactobacillus casei) led to higher values of L*, b*, %Brix and pH. In the presence of cupua&ccedil;u flavor, the values of pH, L*, b* and %Brix were significantly higher, which allows us to infer that cupua&ccedil;u pulp contributes to decreasing the values of pH and increasing the acidity, lightness, b* and %Brix of fermented milk. Fermented milk with addition of bacteria A (Lactobacillus casei shirota) in the presence of cupua&ccedil;u flavor showed reduction in pH and %Brix and, therefore, better acceptance by consumers and bioconservation. The presence of cupua&ccedil;u flavor in fermented milk with bacteria B (Lactobacillus casei) alters L* and b* at seven days of storage. Fermented milk with addition of cupua&ccedil;u flavor constitutes an opportunity and possibility for developing new flavors from Amazonian fruits, strongly contributing to the durability of dairy products, since the physicochemical, sensory and microbiological characteristics are enhanced within the standards of food safety.
