Yogurt dessert piece products are of firm consistency, made on the base of fresh yogurt cheese, coated with chocolate or cocoa-flavored icing, with live bacterial flora, of rectangular design, the main component of which is fresh yogurt cheese with live bacterial flora, of firm consistency, obtained from milk or milk recombined from milk powder with water to a thicker consistency than milk, or milk concentrated by ultra-filtering or milk concentrated with milk powder; its curdling by a yogurt culture, occasionally its supplementary acidic treatment; the cutting of the curd, its solidification by heating, and the separation of the separated whey, and method for producing them.

The present invention is in the field of dairy technology. It relates to methods for producing fermented milk products, characterized the bacterium Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 33515 or mutants obtainable therefrom is used. Lactobacillus rhamnosus bacteria DSM 33515 has low post-acidification in fermented milk products and can provide antimicrobial effects. The invention also provides Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 33515 or mutants obtainable therefrom as well as related compositions.

Methods of production of edible filamentous fungal biomat formulations are provided as standalone protein sources and/or protein ingredients in foodstuffs as well as a one-time use or repeated use self-contained biomat reactor comprising a container with at least one compartment and placed within the compartment(s), a feedstock, a fungal inoculum, a gas-permeable membrane, and optionally a liquid nutrient medium.

The present invention relates to a bacterial cell with texturizing property, starter cultures comprising the cell, and diary products fermented with the starter culture.

The present disclosure relates to a process for producing cream cheese using a specific combination of milk and milk fractions. It further relates to cream cheese which is characterized by a unique combination of levels of minerals, lactose and protein and which may be obtained by the process of the present disclosure.

The present invention relates to a method for making Cheddar type and Continental type cheese with an adjunct culture comprising a Lactobacillus helveticus strain.

Bacteriophage Insensitive Mutants (BIMs) of three Streptococcus thermophilus parent strains were generated and characterized for phage sensitivity, sedimentation rate, cell chain length, phage adsorption and CRISPR loci alterations. Several BIMs showed an altered sedimentation phenotype as well as an increase cell chain length, reduced phage sensitivity, reduced phage adsorption and 100% identity in three CRISPR loci. The results show that the derived BIMs have become phage-resistant through a mechanism other than CRISPR.

The multiple embodiments described herein comprise the genome of a probiotic Bifidobacterium longum bifidobacteria strain and genes encoded by the genome. Various novel Bifidobacterium longum are described.

Methods of production of edible filamentous fungal biomat formulations are provided as standalone protein sources and/or protein ingredients in foodstuffs as well as a one-time use or repeated use self-contained biomat reactor comprising a container with at least one compartment and placed within the compartment(s), a feedstock, a fungal inoculum, a gas-permeable membrane, and optionally a liquid nutrient medium.

The present invention relates to a novel Lactobacillus strain that is not attacked by common phages and a novel Lactobacillus strain with improved cell count stability, its use in the manufacture of fermented milk-based products, and novel milk based products containing the strain.
