Cultures

• Gas producing mesophilic cultures.
• Gas production is measured on sterilised reconstituted milk (13%), standardised to pH 6.60, to which has been added 5g per litre yeast extract, incubated at 30°C for 24 hours.
• 40 ml of inoculated milk with a concentration of 2 DCU / 100 l of milk and incubated at 30°C for 24 hours give, in experimental conditions, more than 25ml of CO².

• CHOOZIT® MD 89 LYO 125 DCU is used for additional aroma development, flavouring with diacetyl production.
• Direct vat inoculation of milk and cream.

Freeze-dried concentrated lactic starter culture for the direct vat inoculation of milk and milk-based preparations.

Thermophilic culture with a moderate acidification rate, suitable for stabilized soft cheese technologies and adapted to long ripening processes and a high pH at demoulding (> 5.10).

A phage rotation is available upon request.

A selected single stain ripening culture with origin in traditional cheese making.

SWING® P.R.cultures are an essential ingredient in the ripening process of blue mold cheeses.

The cultures will upon germination develop a blue mycelium in the cheese and contribute to the typical flavor (by lipolysis) and texture (proteolysis) of the cheese.

The culture may be used in production of Danablu, Roquefort type, Stilton and other blue cheese types.

Mesophilic homofermentative culture, type O.

This Chr.Hansen culture range provides phage resistant defined strains for continuous Direct Vat Set (DVS) use.

This culture contains specially selected strains chosen for their phage resistance and ability to produce lactic acid quickly.

This culture does not produce CO2 .

The culture is primarily applied in the production of cheeses with a closed texture, e.g. Cheddar, Feta and Cottage cheese.

The culture can be applied in other fermented dairy products, in combination or not with other lactic cultures.

Mesophilic culture providing reliable acidification profile with a nice flavour development and controlled gas production.

Eliminates the need for bulk starter preparation.

A phage alternative is available on request.

• The catalase positive micrococcacae are optional anaerobes and are unable to acidify or ferment the sugar in milk. This strain exhibits a good resistance to salt and its enzymatic activity contributes to develop flavour and texture.
• Stimulation of lactic cultures.
• Enhancement of cheese texture and aroma.
• Rapid, selective implantation can inhibit potentially contaminating micro-organisms.

The FreshQ® cultures are combinations of traditional lactic acid bacteria that deliver inhibition of unwanted yeast and moulds in fermented dairy products.

The effect is obtained through active participation in the natural fermentation.

The cultures are added in combination with the normal starter culture in the production of fermented dairy products.

The cultures are developed for application in e.g. Fresh cheese, yoghurt, sour cream.

Mesophilic cultures providing reliable acidification profiles.

Eliminates the need for bulk starter preparation.

A phage alternative is available on request.

Mesophilic aromatic culture, type LD.

The culture produces flavor and CO2.

This range provides cultures with fast acidification properties at a low inoculation rate.

As a principal rule 1000 U of freeze-dried DVS cultures will correspond to 100 l of active bulk starter.

However, specific usage rates should be determined experimentally before a new application.

Mesophilic cultures providing reliable acidification profiles.

Eliminates the need for bulk starter preparation.

Selected yeast single strain with origin in traditional French cheese making.

SWING® LAF cultures are an important tool in cheese making since they may be used to affect curd neutralization, texture and flavor.

Yeasts are common in traditional raw milk cheeses but ar rarely found in industrially produced cheeses.

Therefore adding selected and controlled yeast cultures to the cheese may improve quality.

The yeast culture may be used to provide a balanced flavor and medium to high levels of CO2 formation in Kefir type products.

The culture will provide flavor and medium to high CO2 formation.

Mesophilic homofermentative culture, type O.

This culture contains specially selected strains chosen for their phage resistance and ability to produce lactic acid quickly.

This culture does not produce CO2.

The culture is primarily used in the manufacture of Continental cheese types with no eyes and short texture (e.g.Pecorino) and soft cheese specialties.

A selected single strain ripening culture with origins in traditional cheese making.

SALSA is used to flavor cheeses where sulphur/traditional raw milk cheese aroma is desired.

The culture may also be used to affect texture or for coloring the surface of smeared cheeses.

La culture peut être utilisée dans la fabrication de tous types de fromages à croûtes lavées (morgées) ou mixtes.

elle contribue à assouplir la pâte et à réduire le temps d'affinage.

The culture may be used in production of Danablu, Roquefort type, Stilton and other blue cheese types.

This Chr.Hansen DVS® culture contains defined mesophilic strains and is for continous direct vat set use.

The culture provides fast lactic acid production and high phage robustness without any CO2 production (homofermentative).

The culture is primarily applied in the production of cheeses with a closed texture, e.g. Cheddar, Feta and Cottage cheese.

The culture can be applied in other fermented dairy products, in combination or not with other lactic cultures.
