Abstract

This study was carried out to determine whether like-butter product can be a carrier for probiotics by observing the survivability of selected probiotic strains during cold storage. The effects of using probiotic adjunct cultures (Lactobacillus acidophilus) the like-butter product on microbiological counts, sensory characteristics, chemical characteristics, and some chemical characteristics and compositions including (Acid Degree Value ADV, Peroxide Value ‎ PV, Amino acid tyrosine, Diacetyl, cholesterol, protein, pH, titratable acidity, carbohydrates) during storage for 5 weeks were investigated. The like-butter product with Lactobacillus acidophilus maintained the probiotic characteristics, in that the level of viable cells of the probiotic was 107 cfu/ g until 5 weeks of storage. The highest scores in sensory assessment were obtained on the first day of storage.
