A total of twenty samples of different types of Zabady and Raybe milk were collected from local markets in Cairo and Al-Giza governorates and stored in the refrigerator at 5±1°C. Microbiological, physicochemical, and rheological properties of collected samples were studied at the beginning, middle, and end of storage period. The results showed that the average values of acidity, pH, Viscosity, Syneresis, Water Holding Capacity (WHC%) and Radical Scavenging Activity (RSA%) of fresh samples ranged from 0.72±0.02 to 0.82±0.04%, 4.52±0.05 -4.61±0.02, 3393±7.00 -8535±9.00 cP, 2.70±0.04 -3.88±0.07 (ml/5g), 20.70±0.18 -45.92±0.19% and 14.69±0.13 -21.62±0.12%, respectively. The collected fresh samples contained 11.25±0.15 -14.86±0.19 % total solids. Microbiological analysis revealed that the collected fresh samples contained 7.95 to 8.52 (log cfu/g) lactic acid bacteria, 2.16 to 2.62 (log cfu/g) Coliform Bacteria and 2.25 to 2.33 (log cfu/g) Yeasts and Molds. The hardiness and gumminess of the high-fat traditional zabady samples were higher than the rest of the zabady samples, while the springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness in the industrial zabady samples were higher than the traditional zabady. As the storage period progressed, chemical, physical, microbiological, and rheological changes occurred.
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.
