Description
Summary:This study investigated the influence of probiotic lactobacilli in co-culture with on composition, physicochemical parameters, microbial viability, sensory acceptability, antioxidant capacity and protein profile of lactose-free fermented dairy beverages with added whey, β-galactosidase and jambolan ( (L.) Skeels) pulp. Three beverages (T1, T2 and T3) were prepared with TA-40 as starter culture. LR32 and BGP93 probiotic cultures were added into T2 and T3, respectively. The probiotic adjuvants slightly influenced the pH and titratable acidity of dairy beverages, with no influence on the proximate composition and on the sensory attributes. Samples presented fat and protein contents suitable to meet the requirements of "low-fat dairy beverages with non-dairy ingredients added" according to the Brazilian legislation, lactobacilli viability above 7 log CFU g for both probiotics and total phenolic content around 40 mg GAE 100 g . Colour was the most evaluated sensory aspect (average scores close or higher than 8 in a scale from 0 to 10 for most of the sampling periods). The overall antioxidant capacity increased significantly following the addition of jambolan ( < 0.05), and significantly more during storage ( < 0.05), likely due to proteolysis verified in the electrophoresis gels, as a result of the metabolism of the lactic cultures. The dairy beverages studied are good options for functional foods due to their nutritional value, viability of probiotic lactobacilli, phenolic content, and antioxidant capacity, also serving lactose-intolerant people.
