Abstract

The aim of this study was to produce fresh Minas-type cheese from buffalo milk and analyze its properties for up to 28 days in refrigerated storage. Five cheese-making trials were prepared. Minas-type fresh cheese is a great vehicle for Bifidobacterium lactis incorporation, as probiotic cultures were viable during storage and physico-chemical properties of probiotic products were similar to those of traditional cheeses. Thus, fresh Minas-type cheese made from buffalo milk is an excellent and viable alternative to improve buffalo milk and probiotic ingestion. (AU)
