Notes:
The behaviour of different Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus plantarum species in the fermentation of Manchego whey was experimentally studied and the results were statistically analyzed using a hypothesis contrast method. The steadiness of the velocity of the production of lactic acid during the fermentation process allowed the use of this variable to compare the different microorganisms. From this comparison it was inferred that the individuals of the same population behave alike and that the L. casei population produces lactic acid at a higher rate than the L. plantarum population. A competitive effect among the members of the L. casei population was also observed.
