Notes:
The aim of this study was to establish adequate conditions for heat-shocking cells of lactobacilli, to sufficiently suppress lactic acid production without damaging the proteolytic enzyme system important for cheese maturation. Three temperatures, 65, 67 and 70°C were tested, for 22 sec. The best combination for maximum retardation of lactic acid production and minimum damage to the proteolytic system was obtained by treating cells at 67°C for 22 sec. Following such treatment, lactic acid production was retarded by 24 hr, while the proteolytic enzyme system remained scarcely unchanged.
