- Abstract
Yak milk is a valuable raw material for the production of functional food. Investigation of the fermentation process with commercial starter cultures is conducted to find suitable starters for producing fermented yak milk products on an industrial scale using modern rheological, microbiological, and sensorial methods. According to the acidification curve and rheological measurement, the gel-forming time of yak milk with mesophilic, thermophilic and mixed (meso-thermophilic) starter cultures was not significantly different from cow milk; but, yak milk had a significantly higher gel strength in all cases. The viable bacteria count of fermented samples with thermophilic starters was 8.23 log CFU·mL-1 for cow milk and 9.12 log CFU·mL-1 for yak milk. During cold storage (72 h), the CFU in yak milk remained higher (98.48% - 101.22%) during the storage period than that of cow milk (90.33% - 95.06%). The sensorial property scores of yak milk fermented with mixed starters were the highest, followed by those of milk fermented with mesophilic and thermophilic starter cultures. The obtained parameters show that mesophilic and mixed cultures are advantageous in terms of sensorial and probiotic properties, and thermophilic culture - in terms of gel strength. All this information is useful for the development of new dairy products.
