Comparison of the milk-clotting properties of three plant extracts
Abstract
Several proteases from plant sources have been proposed as milk coagulants, however, limited research has been done on their milk-clotting properties. The effect of temperature on the milk-clotting activity of kiwi fruit, melon and ginger extracts was evaluated, as well as the effects of the different extracts on curd properties. Melon extracts showed high milk-clotting activity over a broad temperature range (45-75 °C) while kiwi fruit and ginger extracts showed high activity over a narrower temperature range, with a maximum at 40 and 63 °C, respectively. Curds produced using kiwi extracts had textural properties comparable with those obtained using commercial rennet, while melon extracts produced a fragile gel and low curd yield. The milk-clotting behavior of the three plant extracts was related to the protease specificity present in these extracts. The kiwi proteases displayed chymosin-like properties and thus hold the best potential for use as a milk coagulant in cheese production.

“Mazorra-Manzano et al. [58] compared proteases extracted from ginger (Zingiber officinale) named zingibaine, melon (Cucumis melo) named cucumisin, and kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) named actinidin, revealing that actinidin has the highest MCA/PA ratio compared to other vegetable coagulants.”

In the citing paper
“On the contrary, curds obtained using melon extracts had different textural properties as reflected by the low values of hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and springiness, possibly due to the higher PA and the lower MCA/PA ratio [58].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
