Evaluation of the Effect of Auxiliary Starter Yeasts With Enzyme Activities on Kazak Cheese Quality and Flavor.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the effect of yeasts on Kazak cheese quality and flavor, three isolated yeasts (Kluyveromyces marxianus A2, Pichia kudriavzevii A11, and Pichia fermentans A19) were used to ferment cheeses and designated as StC, LhC, and WcC, respectively. The cheese fermented with a commercial lactic acid starter without adding yeast was used as control named LrC. The results showed that the texture of cheese added with yeasts were more brittle. K. marxianus A2 contributed to the formation of free amino acids and organic acids, especially glutamate and lactic acid. Moreover, K. marxianus A2 provides cheese with onion, oily, and floral aromas. Furthermore, P. kudriavzevii A11 promotes a strong brandy, herbaceous, and onion flavor. Although no significant aroma change was observed in PfC, it promoted the production of acetic acid, isoamyl acetate, and phenethyl acetate. These results indicate that yeasts are important auxiliary starters for cheese production.

Project description:The use of freeze-dried kefir coculture as a starter in the production of feta-type cheese was investigated. Maturation of the produced cheese at 4 degrees C was monitored for up to 70 days, and the effects of the starter culture, the salting method, and the ripening process on quality characteristics were studied. The use of kefir coculture as a starter led to increased lactic acid concentrations and decreased pH values in the final product associated with significantly higher conversion rates compared to salted rennet cheese. Determination of bacterial diversity at the end of the ripening process in salted kefir and rennet cheeses by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis technology, based on both DNA and RNA analyses, suggested a potential species-specific inhibition of members of the genera Staphylococcus and Psychrobacter by kefir coculture. The main active microbial associations in salted kefir cheese appeared to be members of the genera Pseudomonas and Lactococcus, while in salted rennet cheese, Oxalobacteraceae, Janthinobacterium, Psychrobacter, and Pseudomonas species were noted. The effect of the starter culture on the production of aroma-related compounds responsible for cheese flavor was also studied by the solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technique. Kefir coculture also appeared to extend the shelf life of unsalted cheese. Spoilage of kefir cheese was observed on the 9th and 20th days of preservation at 10 and 5 degrees C, respectively, while spoilage in the corresponding rennet cheese was detected on the 7th and 16th days. Microbial counts during preservation of both types of unsalted cheese increased steadily and reached similar levels, with the exception of staphylococci, which were significantly lower in unsalted kefir cheese. All types of cheese produced with kefir as a starter were approved and accepted by the panel during the preliminary sensory evaluation compared to commercial feta-type cheese.
