Abstract
As a fermentation medium homogenized and sterilized whole milk is used. The length of the fermentation was 4 hours,
symbiosis of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbruesciissp. Bulgaricus were used, to achieve the isoelectric point of
casein 4.6 pH. Monitored parameters were: pH, titratable acidity and antioxidant activity (AOA) in a period of 15 days. It has been
determined a decrease of pH value from 6.67 to 4.19, an increase of titratable acidity from 8.0 to 36.07 oSH and an enhancement of
AOA from 6.13 to 47.4%.The determination of AOA was accordeda method which is used for different types of food, by using stable
2,2-diphenyl-1-pikrilhidrazil (DPPH) free radical and the absorbance was measured at 517nm on a spectrophotometer Spectroquant
Pharo 300, Merck. The neutralization activity of the free radical was expressed as a percentage of inhibition of absorbance of DPPH.
Milk fermented with Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. Bulgaricus, the highest level of AOA registered immediately after the process of
fermentation with a value of 52.44%. The lowest value of AOA for the same symbiosis of cultures was observed at the third day after
fermentation process kept at a temperature of 4 °C, with a value of 39.43%.
Key words: Yogurt, fermented products, pH, titratable acidity, antioxidant activity.
