IIB. Defects in Milk Flashcards
• caused by the growth of lactic acid bacteria and result from small amounts of acetic and propionic acids
souring
LacLacLeuEnt
PedStrepEntKleib
Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Enterococcus
Pediococcus, Streptococcus, Enterobacter, Kleibsiella
• results from growth of Lactococcus lactis and due to methylbutanal
malty
• growth of lactic acid bacteria which produce exocellular polymers that increase viscosity of milk
ropy texture
• associated with the growth of coliforms, yeasts, or spore-formers
gassy defects
• Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus casei subsp. pseudoplantarum associated with
___________ in retail mozzarella cheese
gas production
• Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei – produces a _____________ in mozzarella cheese
soft-body defect
• Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus cause _____________ in cheese
pink discoloration
• Lactococcus spp. _________ produced by these bacteria cause fruity off-flavor in Cheddar cheese
esterase
• esters that contribute to fruity flavor in cheese
ethyl hexanoate and ethyl butyrate
• Bacillus cereus spoilage bacteria in
_________ milk
pasteurized
• chymosin-like protease causes
__________ in fluid milk
coagulation
• any enzyme produced by Bacillus cereus which degrades the fat globule membrame resulting in the aggregation of the fat in cream that gives a bitty cream defect
phospholipase C
• Bacillus circulans and Bacillus mycoides capable of spoiling ____________ milk
heat-treated
• Bacillus stearothermophilus – the major __________ species in milk
heat-resistant
• Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus megaterium ___________bacteria isolated from UHT-processed milk
less heat-resistant
• Clostridium sporogenes cause __________ or bursting of cans
swelling
• Clostridium tyrobutryricum, Clostridium sporogenes, and Clostridium butryricum – cause _________ in cheese
gas formation
• Candida spp. cause spoilage in
fermented or yeasty flavor observed in
Cheddar cheese because of high levels of ethanol, ethyl acetate, and ethyl butyrate
True
• caused by plant-pathogenic microorganisms initiating
infection of otherwise healthy and uncompromised products
Active spoilage
• opportunistic microorganisms gain access to internal tissues via damaged epidermal tissue, lesions caused by plant pathogens, or by natural openings
Passive Spoilage
• enzymes that cause depolymerization of the pectin chain
Pectinase
• enzymes that degrade cellulose to glucose
• attack native cellulose by cleaving cross-linkages between chains
Cellulase
