Objective: The present work was undertaken to determine the possibility of using xanthan and guar gums as stabilizers to enhance the yogurt quality. Methods: Yogurt was manufactured from standardized milk (3.5% fat, 8.5% solid-not-fat contents) with the addition of 2% to 3% starter culture. Enzyme-hydrolyzed xanthan gum (0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%) and guar gum (0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%) were added to the yogurt as stabilizers. Prepared yogurt samples were kept at refrigeration temperature (4℃±2℃) for 21 days and various quality and sensory parameters were studied at regular intervals (7 days). Results: Results showed that yogurt with 0.5% xanthan gum (T5) was best in terms of preventing syneresis and improving the viscosity, water holding capacity and texture of the product. Additionally, adding gums did not adversely affect the sensorial attributes of the product. Conclusion: Modified gums were found useful in augmenting yogurt quality and therefore addition of gums is highly recommended for manufacturing yogurt.

The present study was attempted to investigate and to evaluate various hydrocolloids as a stabilizer in improving texture of the frozen yogurt. Four kinds of hydrocolloids used in this study were CMC (carboxymethyll cellulose), PGA(propylene glycol alginate), LMP(low methoxyl pectin), and the combination of LBG(locust bean gum) and GG(guar gum). The viscosity of frozen yogurt mixes did not show any significant differences among four samples at 5$^{\circ}C$. However, as the temperature increased up to 50$^{\circ}C$, theviscosity of frozen yogurt mixes containing CMC, LMP, PGA decreased drastically except frozen yogurt containing the combination of LBG+GG. The overrun of frozen yogurt containing each hydrocolloid gradually increased and reached to about 53, 50, 54, and 35%, respectively, after 40 min of operating ice cream freezer. As the result of sensory evaluation in the texture of frozen yogurt and melt-down quality, the sample containing LMP was described as the most coarce & icy, crumbly, and sand-like characters. On the other hand, PGA sample was evaluated as not being icy, crumbly, but being chewy and soft in texture. However, any significant differences among four samples were not shown in melt-down quality.

This study investigated the ACE-inhibitory effect of yogurt beverage fortified with hydrolysates as well as the suitability of hydrolysates as a nutraceutical additive to yogurt beverage. Three whey protein hydrolysates hydrolyzed by alcalase, protamex, and trypsin were each added to yogurt beverage at concentrations of 1.25, 2.5, and 5 mg/mL. Yogurt beverage fortified with 2.5 mg/mL of hydrolysates had 61-69% ACE-inhibitory activity, whereas yogurt beverage fortified with 5 mg/mL of hydrolysates showed 74% ACE-inhibitory activity. There were no significant differences in ACE-inhibitory activity between the alcalase or protamex hydrolysates during storage; however, trypsin hydrolysate exhibited significant differences. On the other hand, physicochemical characteristics such as pH (3.47-3.77), titratable acidity (0.81-0.84%), colority, viable cell count, and sensory qualities were not significantly different among the tested yogurt beverage samples during storage. These results showed that yogurt beverage fortified with whey protein hydrolysates maintained antihypertensive activity and underwent no unfavorable changes in physicochemical characteristics regardless of enzyme type.

This study investigated to develop new functional yogurt added domestic yuza(Citrus junos). In order to make the most effective yogurt, yuza extract and fructose were mixed at different proportions. DPPH free radical scavenging activity of yuza yogurts increased dependent on concentration. The results of the DPPH free radical scavenging activity, the 1% yuza yogurt was proven to be the best. The overall sensory score for yogurt made from adding 1% yuza ethanol extract was the best of tested yogurts. The antioxidant activity(DPPH free radical scavenging activity) was the highest in 1% yuza yogurt. The quality characteristics of prepared yogurt were evaluated in terms of acid production(pH and titratable acidity), viscosity, color and levels of lactic acid bacteria during storage period. During storage, the quality of yogurt made from adding yuza extract was better than control(without yuza extract). The sedimentation of curd was repressed a little by adding 1% yuza extract.

These days, different types of yogurt are being manufactured by adding various starters and functional ingredients for health. The purpose of this study was to prepare yogurt added with rice followed by fermentation with two types of starters and to examine its attributes. Ten percent of skim milk powder and 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, or 10% rice were mixed in water (w/v) and then inoculated with two types of starter: 1) Type A, Streptococcus thermophiles and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus as starter; and 2) Type B, Streptococcus thermophiles, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Bifidobacteium animalis ssp. lactis as starter. The pH of B type yogurt was lower (p < 0.05) than that of A type yogurt from 6 hours to 14 hours after fermentation. The number of microorganisms in all fermented milk showed maximum increases at 2 and 6 hours of fermentation (p < 0.05). The number of microorganisms in fermented milk peaked at 6 hours after fermentation and maintained this level thereafter. There was no effect of rice addition on microbial growth or acidity of the fermented milk. Sensory attributes of yogurt samples with and without added rice were not significantly different. This experiment showed that the production efficiency of yogurt with added rice was not different when two different types of starters were used to manufacture yogurt.

The aim of this study was to propose utilization of tofu whey concentrates separated by ultrafiltration (UF) for yogurt production. The curd yogurt was prepared from whole milk added with skim milk Powder in which UF powder was substituted 0$\%$, 6.25$\%$, 12.5$\%$ or 25$\%$ for skim milk powder. The quality characteristics of yogurt in terms of pH, titratable acidity, viscosity, color and viable cell counts were evaluated. There were no significant differences in pH and titratable acidity between control (yogurt added with only skim milk powder) and yogurt added with UF powder after 24 hr of fermentation at 37$^{\circ}C$. Apparent viscosity of yogurt added with UF powder was lower (2,623 $\∼$ 3,189 cps) than that of the control yogurt (3,196 cps). Lightness and redness value of yogurt added with UF powder were not significantly different from control yogurt, while yellowness value increased as the amount of UF powder increased. Addition of UF powder stimulated the growth of lactic acid bacteria. Gas chromatographic analysis detected acetaldehyde, diacetyl, and organic acids, and more volatile compounds were detected in yogurt added with UF powder. Sensory analysis showed that yogurt added with UF powder were evaluated as acceptable as control yogurt. Therefore, UF powder could be substituted for skim milk powder without depressing yogurt qualify.

The objective of this study was to investigate the microstructure of folic acid-contained yogurt. Folic acids (25 and 50%) were added to milk preparation prior to pasteurization, then starter culture was added. The microstructure of yogurt containing folic acid was determined by the size of cluster of casein micelle using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The cluster of casein micelle in yogurt containing folic acid were showed larger size than in control (p<0.05). In addition of 50% of folic acid, cluster of casein micelle per unit area was exhibited the highest number among tested yogurts. From these results, folic acid concentration of yogurt may be affected by mouth-feel of yogurt texture as well as the aggregation of casein micelle.

This experiment was carried out to examine the fermentation properties of yogurt with Lycii fructus, Lycii folium and Lycii cortex powder, and extract additives at concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, and 6.0%. Lactic acid bacteria was used in a mixed starter culture of Streptococcus salivarius ssp. thermophilus(ST36) and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus(LB12). When the boxthorn was added with extract types, the changes of pH, acidity and lactic acid bacteria counts of yogurt during the fermenation of 3 hours were pH 5.64, titratable acidity 0.85%, 5.80xl0$\^$6/cfu/ml of viable cell counts for control yogurt, whereas those were pH 4.10∼5.06, titratable acidity 0.98∼1.27%, 1.80∼9.60x10$\^$7/ cfu/ml of viable cell counts for Lycii fructus extract yogurt. The lactose hydrolysis ratio was better for 1.0% Lycii fructus extract yogurt(42.00%) and 1.0% Lycii folium extract yogurt(41.46%) than for control yogurt(28.40%). Also, content of lactic acid of 1.0% Lycii fructus(11.9 times) and 1.0% Lycii folium extract yogurt(10.6 times) produced more than control yogurt(7.3 times). The viscosity of yogurt was better for boxthorn extract yogurt(1,027∼1,382 cps) than for control yogurt(975cps). The sensory scores of color, taste and overall acceptability of yogurt with 0.5, and 1.0% Lycii fructus extract additive were better than other groups. The yogurts made with increased Lycii fructus extract concentration(0.5∼6.0%), showed the increase of lactic acid, titratable acidity, number of lactic acid bacteria, viscosity and lactose hydrolysis rate compared to the treatments of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0% Lycii folium and Lycii cortex extract and powder yogurt. We gained excellent results from the yogurt to which Lycii fructus extract was added with 0.51.0% concentration.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of yogurt to which had been added extracts of low quality dried persimmons, in an attempt to expand the range of use of low-quality dried persimmons. In the results of our sensory evaluation, our optimal results were attained with the addition of 5 g of dried persimmon extracts, 90 g of water, 20 g of oligosaccharide, and 50 g of fructose at a specific level of 1000 mL. During the 20-day storage period, the pH value of the dried persimmon yogurt was lowest on the 15th day in the control group and the 20th day in the yogurt to which 0.5% extract had been added. The titratable acidity was lowest by a significant margin on the 10th day for all types of yogurt. Viscosity assays showed a stable level of acidity over different storage periods. The number of viable cells demonstrated a trend toward increase with passing time, and the number of viable cells in the dried-persimmon yogurt was higher than that in the control yogurt.

Lactobacillus helveticus was inoculated to the fermentation liquid containing skin milk powder(SMT) plus soymilk, SMP plus isolated soybean protein(ISP), SMP plus ISP plus whey powder(WP) to increase the nutritional and economic value of commercial soy yogurt. The yogurt fermented with soymilk and SMP showed the lower acid production than of SMP and had significant beany flavor in the product. The yogurt prepared with ISP and SMP showed the higher cell number and lower acid production than that of SMP. Also, the partial substitution of SMP with ISP over 6%(w/w) produced less acceptable product due to gel production. The yogurt prepared by the partial substitution of SMP with ISP, WP and SMP showed the higher cell number and lower acid production than that of SMP and not bring about gel formation unlike the case of ISP. Sensory properties of yogurt substituted SMP with ISP and WP(38:62 mixture) below 4% were not significantly different from that of SMP and the sample containing the mixture over 6% and 0.067% artificial flavor showed lower sensory score due to beany taste than that of SMP. But increase of yogurt flavor up to 0.1% resulted in significantly high score in organoleptic acceptability. The separation of water occured in yogurt prepared by the combined mixture of ISP, WP and SMP, and this problem could be resolved by addition of Na-alginate and PGA at the concentration of 0.1%(w/w).
