Sažetak
The effect of level of inoculum on viability of probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium spp.) during yoghurt manufacture and storage at 4 °C was investigated. Yoghurt production was performed using commercially available starter cultures. The viability of L. acidophilus was maintained at the level of 10000000 cfu/g up to 20-25 days storage. The counts and the stabilities of all three bifdobacteria starter cultures used were higher compared with L. acidophilus. Postacidification was slightly higher in yoghurts prepared with lower levels of inoculum. Associative yoghurt organisms and pH of yoghurt affected the viability of probiotic bacteria.
