Özet

Experimental yoghurts were made with 13% reconstituted skim milk supplemented with 1, 2, 3% rice bran (RB) and inoculated with probiotic culture of Lactobacillus casei 431. The products were stored at 4 °C for 3 weeks. During this period, the viability of the probiotic L. casei 431 strain and yoghurt starter cultures were evaluated. In addition to this, some physicochemical, antioxidative and sensory properties of yoghurts were also determined. L. casei 431 remained above the 8 log CFU/g throughout the storage period in yoghurts fortified with 2% and 3% RB. Addition of rice bran decreased the syneresis and viscosity values whereas it increased scavenging activities of DPPH radical. However, yoghurts with RB had less sensory scores compared to plain yoghurt.
