    Effect of Different Microencapsulating Materials on the Viability of S. Thermophilus Ccm4757 Incorporated Into Dark and Milk Chocolates
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Öztürk, Burcu; Elvan, Menşure; Özer, Merve; Tellioğlu Harsa, Şebnem
    This study aimed to evaluate the viability and bioaccessibility of Streptococcus thermophilus CCM4757 strain supplemented in dark and milk chocolates during storage period and pass through simulated in vitro gastro-intestinal tract. Microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated S. thermophilus CCM4757 strain added into the chocolates. Emulsion technique was used to microencapsulate cells with various biopolymers; carboxymethylcellulose, pectin, gum arabic, and cellobiose. The microencapsulated S. thermophilus with these coating materials was found to be viable higher than 9 log CFU/g up to 180 days of storage at 4 °C. Microbiological, physicochemical, and sensorial attributes of the chocolates containing microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated S. thermophilus CCM4757 were analyzed. The microencapsulated S. thermophilus showed a good survivability in milk (7.12 log CFU/g) and dark (6.90 log CFU/g) chocolate samples during 180-day storage at 4 °C. Supplementation of S. thermophilus did not affect significantly (P > 0.05) the sensory attributes of the chocolates. The results showed that S. thermophilus CCM4757 exhibited good cell survivability higher than 85% in chocolates under simulated gastro-intestinal fluids. S. thermophilus supplementation into the chocolate protected the viability of cells and did not affect the sensorial characteristics and moisture content of chocolates. The present study demonstrated that the dark and milk chocolates could be used as an important matrix to carry probiotics. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd

    Control of Lactic Acid Bacteria in Fermented Beverages Using Lysozyme and Nisin: Test of Traditional Beverage Boza as a Model Food System
    (Wiley, 2018) Sözbilen, Gözde Seval; Korel, Figen; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet
    The objective of this study was to increase quality and limited shelf-life of boza (3–15 days), a traditional Balkan origin fermented beverage using lysozyme (LYS) and/or nisin (NIS). For this purpose, the effectiveness of NIS, LYS and LYS:NIS combinations was first tested in a broth medium at 4 °C for 3 weeks on Lactobacillus plantarum, one of the frequently isolated lactic acid bacteria in boza. Stability of LYS and NIS in boza, their effects on LAB counts, and chemical and sensory properties of boza were then evaluated during cold storage at 4 °C. Results of LAB counts as well as pH, d- and l-lactic acid, and titratable acidity measurements showed that LAB in boza containing NIS (250 μg g−1) or LYS:NIS (500:250 μg g−1) could be controlled without reducing LAB counts below 6 log CFU mL−1 during 2 weeks shelf-life. In contrast, LYS (500 μg g−1) alone could not control LAB in boza to delay its acidic spoilage. Positive effects of NIS and LYS:NIS application on quality of boza were also proved with sensory analysis by panelists and e-nose measurements. This work showed that use of natural GRAS agents in preservation of fermented beverages containing probiotic LAB is possible without affecting their characteristic aroma and flavour.
