Abstract

Lactic acid bacteria strains that produce exopolysaccharide (EPS) are employed in the manufacture of fermented milk to improve its texture and viscosity. No clear correlation has been found between EPS concentration and the viscosity of the fermented milk. It is supposed that the molecular characteristics, i.e. radius of gyration and molar mass, of these biopolymers play a part. The subject of this study was to clarify whether the viscosifying properties of EPS in aqueous solution can be related to the viscosity of fermented milk products. Therefore, we aimed at relating the molecular characteristics of EPSs produced by several strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris in milk at three incubation temperatures to the viscosity of the fermented products. For a given EPS concentration, a positive correlation between the EPS-viscosifying parameters (intrinsic viscosity, Kuhn segments length and thickening efficiency) and the Posthumus viscosity of fermented milks was found.

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.
