The effect of probiotic crops and lipolytic enzymes on the properties of dairy products in the cheese biotechnology under development

This article aims to evaluate the influence of probiotic microorganisms and pregastric lipase on organoleptic and biochemical characteristics of soft cheese made from a mixture of milk and buttermilk. The study was designed to determine how the temperature and exposure at this temperature affect the growth and development of lactose and bifidobacteria, as well as their quantity in the finished product. In order to increase the biological and nutritional value of the developed soft cheese, protein-carbohydrate raw materials rich in vitamins A, B12, D, E, phosphate and minerals were introduced into the production mixture. The addition of buttermilk increased the biological value of the product and improved its consistency. The taste and consistency of cheese was improved by a pregastric lipase preparation, widely used in the cheesemaking industry for production of various cheeses with high and low temperatures of the second heating. As a result of directed lipolysis, the finished product accumulates free fatty acids and diacylglycerols, acting as plasticizers and affecting the texture and organoleptic characteristics of the cheese. The results show that combining buttermilk and milk in an optimal ratio and addition of lipase produce a product with the best physicochemical parameters and a maximum evaluation of organoleptic characteristics. In the presence of a probiotic starter culture (provided there is a ready-made substrate), an active synthesis of enzymes necessary for the complete hydrolysis of milk fat begins. This all creates a functional product.
