Effect of heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria of DL-starters in initial ripening of semi-hard cheese
2016
Pedersen, T.B. | Vogensen, F.K. | Ardö, Y.
The role of heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria from dl-starters in ripening of semi-hard cheese was investigated using the strains Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides PS12 and 1159, Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris T26 and Lactobacillus danicus 13M1. Control cheese was made with starter containing only homofermentative Lactococcus lactis subspecies. Leuc. mesenteroides subsp. cremoris T26 did not grow in cheese and started to decrease in number early, whereas the others grew and remained at a high number throughout the nine-week ripening period. None of the added heterofermentative strains affected proteolysis and total amount of amino acids; however, differences in the composition of amino acids were observed, and caused significant differences in the composition of volatile aroma compounds. Added strains increased the amount of secondary alcohols and mediated decreases in the amount of corresponding methyl ketones, diacetyl and acetoin. Eye formation was only affected by Lb. danicus through stimulation of late gas formation in cheeses.
