Summary

YOGURT WAS MADE WITH: STERILE SKIM MILK WITH OR WITHOUT ADDITION OF DRIED MILK (3-14%) ; STERILE WHOLE MILK WITH OR WITHOUT 2% DRIED MILK ; DRIED MILK RECONSTITUTED TO 11-22%, WITH OR WITHOUT CRYOPROTECTIVE AGENTS (15% SODIUM GLYCEROPHOSPHATE OR 10% SUCROSE) ; AND ULTRAFILTERED STERILE SKIM MILK, WITH OR WITHOUT 15% SODIUM GLYCEROPHOSPHATE. THE YOGURT WAS FINALLY FREEZE-DRIED AND KEPT FOR 1-2 YEARS AT 277 K (4 DEG C). HIGH SURVIVAL RATES OF BACTERIA WERE OBTAINED WHEN THE TS CONTENT OF THE MILK EXCEEDED 14% ; LIQUID MILK WITH DRIED MILK ADDED GAVE BETTER PROTECTION THAN RECONSTITUTED MILK. IN WHOLE MILK THE BACTERIA WERE VIRTUALLY UNAFFECTED BY FREEZE-DRYING BUT DECREASED IN NUMBER DURING SUBSEQUENT STORAGE. THE YOGURTS CONTAINING CRYOPROTECTIVE AGENTS HAD VERY HIGH BACTERIAL COUNTS.
