Probiotic buttermilk‐like fermented milk in different flavors in versions with sucrose and sucralose were processed in a pilot plant. The Mesophilic Aromatic Culture CHN‐22 and Bifidobacterium animalis Bb12 were the cultures employed for fermentation. Physicochemical composition, apparent viscosity, diacetyl content, viability of cultures during storage, and acceptance of product via sensorial analysis were assessment factors. The high viability of the probiotic culture was observed (average 8.08 log cfu/ml) during refrigerated storage (28 days) of buttermilk and good acceptance of the product via sensory test. However, the probiotic culture might have been responsible for the loss of diacetyl, a volatile compound that is a characteristic feature of the product.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
