To meet this objective, ice cream mixtures were formulated using camel or cow milk constituents, inoculated with regular yogurt starter (Lactobacillus delbruecldi ssp bulgaricus and streptococcus thermophilus) and incubated at 42℃ till a pH value of 5.0 was attained. The fermented mixes were heated to 80℃ for 5 min in water bath to inhibit yogurt organisms. Bifidobacteria were then added at 2 g/kg mix (1 gram from each Bifidobacterium strain). The results showed that the initial counts of Bifidobacteria before freezing were 7.3 × 10^8 and 7.1 × 108 cfu/g for camel and cow mix respectively and decreased to 1.06× 10^8 and 1.1×10^8 in the same order (about 0.8 log reduction in the count of Bifidobacteria was observed) after freezing and storage for one day. No significant changes in counts of Bifidobaeteria were found during storage at -20℃ for 17 weeks. Changes in pH and titratable acidity were also studied. No significant changes in titratable acidities of frozen yogurt made from camel or cow milk constituents during storage period were observed.展开更多
