Influence Of Low Homogenization Pressures On Acid Tolerance, Bile Tolerance, Protease Activity, And Growth Characteristics Of Lactobacillus Delbrueckii Ssp Bulgaricus Lb-12, Streptococcus Salivarius Ssp Thermophilus St-M5, And Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-K, Tanuja Muramalla
LSU Master's Theses
Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus LB-12, Streptococcus salivarius ssp thermophilus ST-M5 and Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-K are dairy cultures widely used in the fermentation of dairy products. Homogenization is an essential process in dairy industry for making several products. High homogenization pressures (>50 MPa) are used to create stable emulsion, inactivate the pathogens and increase the protease activity of dairy cultures. Sparse literature is available on the influence of low homogenization pressures, and their effect on beneficial characteristics of dairy cultures is not well understood. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of low homogenization pressures on acid …
