Abstract

|
This study was conducted to investigate biochemical characteristics of enzyme-added cheese baseslurries during accelerated ripening. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) soluble nitrogen of cheese base slurries increased rapidly during the first day of ripening and the rate of increase slowed down thereafter. Cheese base slurries showed lower level in the production of the nitrogen than Cheddar cheese slurries. Producctions of phosphotungstic (PTA) soluble amino nitrogen also showed similar trends as TCA soluble nitrogen. Electrophoresis revealed that all caseins in both cheese base slurries and Cheddar cheese slurries were hydrolyzed, but whey proteins in cheese base slurries were little hydrolyzed. Cheese base slurries produced free amino acids little more than half of Cheddar cheese slurries. Both slurries showed similar increasing trend in production of short-chain free fatty acids. The specificity of the fatty acids in the slurries was similar to that of natural ripened cheese. The results of this study showed that addition of enzyme was effective to accelerate cheese base ripening.
