Greek yogurt, a traditional food with roots in Ancient Greece, Mesopotamia, and Central Asia, has become dietary staple worldwide due to its creamy texture, distinct flavor, rich nutritional profile. The contemporary emphasis on health wellness elevated yogurt as functional food, recognized for high protein content bioavailable probiotics that support overall health. This study investigates the sensory attributes evaluated by panel of 22 trained assessors consumer preferences driving acceptance formulations. Samples higher were characterized such “high texture mouth, surface uniformity, creaminess, apparent homogeneity, mouth-filling, grip ease pick-up spoon, milk cream sweetness, dairy flavor” (Tukey’s test, p < 0.05). These strongly correlated preferences, underscoring their importance product optimization. findings provide framework refining formulations address diverse market demands, achieving balance between excellence practical formulation strategies. research reinforces significance culturally adaptable, health-promoting component promising segment ongoing innovation.

Given the environmental, ethical, and food security challenges posed by conventional agriculture animal husbandry, transition towards sustainable systems is essential. Plant-based foods, especially those enhanced fermentation, present a viable solution. Fermentation reduces ecological footprint, aligns with ethical standards, enhances plant-based proteins' nutritional value sensory attributes, offering credible alternative to products. This paper explores fermentation's transformative role in developing meats, dairy, protein alternatives, emphasizing its benefits, including improved gut health through probiotics prebiotics. It also addresses such as producing undesirable by-products, potential risks, increased costs associated fermentation. Detailed examinations of specific fermentation processes—alcoholic, lactic acid, acetic propionic butyric acid—and their impact on enhancing value, digestibility, flavor foods are presented. Case studies from pioneering companies demonstrate technologies' practical applications market potential. Lastly, discusses future opportunities scaling up processes incorporating advanced biotechnological techniques further enhance sustainability outcomes.

Abstract Background The most prevalent probiotic bacterium employed in the food industry is Lactobacillus because it can produce metabolites with antibacterial capabilities and exhibits hostility towards infections microorganisms that cause spoilage. Aim This study set out to identify naturally occurring plantaricin (pln EF) coding genes raw cow milk assess potency of isolated isolates. Methods Following enrichment De Man, Rogosa Sharpe (MRS) broth, single colonies were isolated, pure obtained by streaking on MRS agar. 16S rRNA gene was amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) confirm cultural positivity all Additionally, presence verified targeting pln EF through PCR. Outcome Out 166 specimens acquired from cows, 153 (91.17%; CI: 86.98–95.76) identified as positive for both culture biochemical screening. Subsequently, 121 (72.89%; 65.46–79.49) isolates affirmed harbour PCR analysis. Within this subset, 6 (4.96%; 1.84–10.48) found possess plnEF gene. When exposed isolates, Salmonella Typhimurium enterica displayed an average maximum zone inhibition a diameter measuring 24 mm. In contrast, Escherichia coli exhibited minimum inhibition, featuring 11 demonstrated inhibitory zones against Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae oxytoca , 14, 22 19 mm, respectively. Clinical significance Lactic acid bacteria, particularly Lactobacilli, are plentiful broad‐spectrum properties.

This study aimed to unleash the potential of indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) originating from traditionally made Serbian goat cheese. Following isolation and identification LAB, safety aspects isolates were evaluated through tests for hemolytic activity antibiotic sensitivity. The selected then tested various technological properties, including growth in methylene blue, proteolytic activity, acidification, curd formation ability both pure enriched milk, diacetyl production, antagonistic against other biofilm ability. results indicated that Lactococcus spp., Lacticaseibacillus Lactiplantibacillus spp. did not exhibit α or β hemolysis, while enterococci displayed hemolysis. A higher number demonstrated sensitivity ampicillin, tetracycline, streptomycin, gentamicin vancomycin was strain-dependent. Based on evaluation paracasei M-1 plantarum C7-7, C7-8, C14-5 showed promising characteristics. Additionally, lactis subsp. strains C0-14 C21-8 emerged as candidates with notable properties. Notably, certain LAB properties profiles. These characteristics make them suitable use starter adjunct cultures goat’s milk cheese potentially enhancing quality well hygiene practices among small-scale dairy producers.
