RESUMO

The concern about sustainable technologies and demand for new functional foods arouses the interest for the development of new food products in addition to provide nutrition and health benefits to the consumer. Thus, this work aims to offer organic milk as a potential raw material for the manufacture of probiotic fermented milk. Therefore, studying the technological profile of strains of bifidobacteria in pure culture and in co-culture with Streptococcus thermophilus in organic and conventional milks, analyzing the chemical composition of milk; determining the profile of acidification of four strains of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis in pure culture and in co-culture with Streptococcus thermophilus; checking the counts of starter and probiotic cultures in fermented milks; examining the profile of fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid content of fermented milks and the profile of texture of fermented milks. The highest rate of acidification profile was observed for the strains BL04 and B94 in organic milk and for the strain HN019 in both milks. The counts of all strains of B. animalis subsp. lactis were higher than 8.58 log10 colony forming units (CFU). mL-1. The organic milk had higher levels of iron and protein, whereas conventional milk had higher levels of fat and lactose. The main fatty acids were not influenced by the type of milk and higher amounts of conjugated linoleic acid (65% higher than the control) were found in organic fermented milk with the strain BB12 in co-culture with S. thermophilus. Thus, it was found that organic milk can be used as raw material in the manufacture of probiotic fermented milk, increasing nutritional quality to final product.
