bacteria

F
ermented dairy products represent a vital constituent of
the human diet globally. Fat content is the most critical
parameter in yoghurt manufacturing. At the same time,
excessive intake of dietary fat resulted in serious health
disorders. It is also well-known that probiotics were confirmed
to enhance the consumer health and digestive system. Besides,
functional probiotic yoghurt with βglucan added is considered
as an alternative to the conventional yoghurt presented in
the market. In our research, we were able to prepare low-fat
yoghurt fortified with standard oat β-glucan 86% (Johncan
Mushroom Bio-technology) using standard bacterial culture
(streptococcus thermophilus & lactobacillus bulgaricus) and
probiotic Lactobacillus & Bifidobacterium strains (Yogurtel),
as an adjunct culture, and investigated their rheological and
sensory properties. The production was carried out using
full-fat 3.2% and low-fat 2.5% milk (Irbitskoe). Three different
experimental groups were produced with 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2%
β-glucan for low-fat yoghurt. In addition, two control groups
of full-and low-fat yoghurts (without β-glucan) produced with
the standard culture and standard culture with probiotics were
assessed for comparison. The viability of lactic acid bacteria
(LAB), probiotic bacteria, rheological, colour and sensorial
characteristics were determined. The addition of β-glucan
promoted the growth of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium
strains in yoghurt. The results demonstrated that the use of
β-glucan in the manufacture of yoghurt did not significantly
impact on the pH and titratable acidity. However, whey
separation, viscosity and sensory scores were influenced. The
level of syneresis was affected in low-fat yoghurt production
and improved the rheological properties of the final products.
The best results were obtained by addition of the composite
at a level of 0.2 % for the manufacture of low-fat yoghurt. It
was concluded that the addition of β-glucan with probiotics
enhanced microbiological and rheological properties of
yoghurts which may improve the health benefits of consumers.
