Probiotic products have long been recognized for their health benefits. Additionally, milk has held a longstanding reputation as a dairy product that offers high-quality proteins and essential micronutrients. As awareness of the impact of food on health grows, interest in functional products such as probiotic dairy products is on the rise. Fermentation, a time-honored technique used to enhance nutritional value and food preservation, has been used for centuries to increase nutritional value and is one of the oldest food processing methods. Historically, fermented dairy products have been used as convenient vehicle for the consumption of probiotics. However, addressing the potential drawbacks of fermentation has recently led to increase in research on probiotic dairy drinks prepared without fermentation. These non-fermented dairy drinks have the advantage of maintaining the original flavors of milk drinks, containing potential health functional probiotics, and being an alternative dairy product that is helpful for probiotics intake. Currently, research on plant-based dairy products is rapidly increasing in the market. These developments might suggest the potential for novel forms of non-fermented dairy beverages with substantial prospects in the food market. This review aims to provide an overview of milk-based dairy beverages, both fermented and non-fermented, and discuss the potential of non-fermented dairy products. This exploration paves the way for innovative approaches to deliver probiotics and nutrition to consumers.

This Study was carried out to investigate yeast and mold contamination in fermented milk products produced by 9 different domestic manufacturers from October 20. to December 5. 1980 The results obtained in the study were as follows 1) pH values of the products were ranged from pH 3.14 to pH 4.20 and average of sour milk drinks was pH $3.66\pm 0.19$ and fermented milks pH $3.74\pm 0.11$. Therefore the difference of pH average among sour milk drinks and fermented milks was statistically significant. (p<0.01) 2) In case of yeast contamination, yeast was found on all the four producted at the same date. From this result, it seemed that yeast contamination occured during the manufacturing progress. 3) Degree of contamination by the indicator organisms was E. coli positive, 3.7%: over 1,000 yeasts/ml, 14.8% over 10 molds/ml, 0.9%. 4) In the range of over 1,000 yeasts/ml, degree of contamination by yeast was 8.4% in fermented milk and 16.7% in sour milk drink. 5) Yeasts in product C increased to the spoilage number within 5 days and in H increased within 10 days at 5C. At 15$\circ$C, yeast increased to the spoilage number within 15 days in product A.D. 6) It seems that the yeast number of initial contamination should be important than the increase rate as criteria on the fermented Milk products.

The purpose of this research was to develop an optimum composition model for a new synbiotic fermented dairy product with high probiotic cell counts, and to experimentally verify this model. The optimum composition model indicated the growth promoter ratio that could provide the highest growth rate for probiotics in this fermented product. Different levels of growth promoters were first blended with milk to improve the growth rates of probiotics, and the optimum composition model was determined. The probiotic viabilities and chemical properties were analyzed for the samples made using the optimal formula. The optimal combination of the growth promoters for the synbiotic fermented milk product was 1.12% peptides, 3% fructooligosaccharides (FOS), and 1.87% isomaltooligosaccharides (IMO). A product manufactured according to the formula of the optimum model was analyzed, showing that the model was effective in improving the viability of both Lactobacillus spp. and Bifidobacterium spp.

In this study, we separated and purified lipase inhibitory peptide from fermented milk by Lactobacillus plantarum Q180 with the aim of developing a new functional anti-lipase activity yogurt product. L. plantarum 180 was inoculated into 10% reconstituted skimmed milk and incubated at 37℃ until the pH of the culture reached pH 4.4. The lipase activity was measured using porcine pancreatic lipase. The lipase inhibitory peptides were gradually isolated by ultrafiltration, reversed phase column chromatography (RPC), reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), and gel permeation high-performance liquid chromatography (GP-HPLC) from the fermented milk by L. plantarum Q180. An ODS-AQ column was used for the RPC, a Vydac C18 column for the RP-HPLC, and a Superdex Peptide HR column for the GP-HPLC. The peptide was composed of Asp, Thr, Ile, Ser, Ala, and Gln, and the anti-lipase activity (IC₅₀) was 2,817 ㎍/mL.

Immunoblotting and competitive indirect enzyme-liked immunosorbent assay(Ci-ELISA) was used for detection of ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin(BLG) in dairy products, such as milk, dried milk and fermented milk. In immunoblotting, human IgE weakly recognized proteins of fermented milk, but still responded to dried milk even though become weak. Rabbit polyclonal antibody to BLG, used as a model of antigen, and milk allergic patients' IgE was used in the ELISA. Reactivities of Abs were the highest in market milk. BLG in fermented milk was detected in a low content. This result indicates the fermented milk have the lowest BLG content and could be used as hypo-allergenic food for milk-allergic individual.

A cultured milk product was made by fennenting 10$\%$ reconstituted skim milk with Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis TA29 and Saccharomyces exiguus SK2. L. lactis TA29 and S. exiguus SK2 grew up to 1.0 $\times 10^9\;and\;2.0 \times 10^6$ cfu/ml, respectively. After the fermentation 21$\%$ of lactose was hydrolyzed, pH was lowered to 4.2, and titratable acidity and alcohol concentration were increased to 0.96 and 0.023$\%$, respectively. When the fermented milk was stored at $4{\circ}C$ for 9 days, the viable cell counts for L. lactis TA29 and S. exiguus SK2 were $6.5 \times 10^5\;and\;1.6 \times 10^6$ cfu/rnl, respectively. The alcoholic fermented milk prepared in this experiment was more inhibitory against some pathogenic bacteria including C. perfringens than commercial yoghurt products tested.

Camel milk plays a critical role in the diet of peoples belongs to the semi-arid and arid regions. Since prehistoric times, camel milk marketing was limited due to lacking the processing facilities in the camel-rearing areas, nomads practiced the self-consumption of raw and fermented camel milk. A better understanding of the techno-functional properties of camel milk is required for product improvement to address market and customer needs. Despite the superior nutraceutical and health promoting potential, limited camel dairy products are available compared to other bovines. It is a challenging impetus for the dairy industry to provide diversified camel dairy products to consumers with superior nutritional and functional qualities. The physicochemical behavior and characteristics of camel milk is different than the bovine milk, which poses processing and technological challenges. Traditionally camel milk is only processed into various fermented and non-fermented products; however, the production of commercially important dairy products (cheese, butter, yogurt, and milk powder) from camel milk still needs to be processed successfully. Therefore, the industrial processing and transformation of camel milk into various products, including fermented dairy products, pasteurized milk, milk powder, cheese, and other products, require the development of new technologies based on applied research. This review highlights camel milk's processing constraints and techno-functional properties while presenting the challenges associated with processing the milk into various dairy products. Future research directions to improve product quality have also been discussed.

Korean traditional fermented milk, Tarak, came down from the Koryo dynasty according to Korean ancient cookbook SoowoonJaabaang, which was written by Taakjunggong, Yoo Kim around AD 1500. Tarak is generally refers to milk or dairy products. Three theories on 'Tarak' revealed in this study are as follows: 1) it has been derived from Dolgwol language, tarak, 2) it has originated in Mongolian language, Topar(tarague), meaning horse's milk and 3) it originated in Tarak mountain located in Hanyang, which was capital of Chosun. In Mongolia, fermented milk has been called as Tarak and it has been called as tar by Yakuts tribe who are nomads in Sakha. The common part, tar, of these words is said to be the term representing the origin of the fermented milk coming from the central Asia. Therefore, Korean Tarak seems to be part of the central Asian culture that flowed into the Korean peninsula. The manufacturing method of Mogolian Topar(tarague) is similar to those of Tarak found in the SoowoonJaabaang. This research revealed that Korean traditional fermented milk, Tarak, is thought to be affected by the central Asia, especially Mongolia.
