Production of sulfur flavors by ten strains of Geotrichum candidum
1999
ABSTRACT Ten strains of Geotrichum candidum were studied on a liquid cheese model medium for the production of sulfur compounds which contribute to the aroma of cheeses. The volatile components produced by each cultured strain were extracted by dynamic headspace extractions, separated and quantified by gas chromatography (GC), and identified by GC-mass spectrometry. It was shown that four strains of this microorganism produced significant quantities of S -methyl thioacetate, S -methyl thiopropionate, S -methyl thiobutanoate, S -methyl thio iso butanoate, S -methyl thio iso valerate, and S -methyl thiohexanoate. This is the first example of the production of these compounds by a fungus. In a…
Effect of the association of surface flora on the sensory properties of mould-ripened cheese
1997
Summary - In cheese, flavour and taste are, in great part, generated by the starters during the ripening stage. Proteolysis and lipolysis are the first steps of the elaboration of a large number of taste and odour compounds directly invol ved in the sensory quality of cheeses. The pathways used by the microorganisms to produce flavour compounds are still unclear in many cases. It would be useful for the starter-producing industry to have screening criteria permitting diversification of the starter quality, and for the cheese industry to know which strain to associate to obtain cheeses with specifie sensory properties. The production of experimental cheeses with different associations of sur…
