Abstract

Braided (Mudaffara) cheese samples were prepared

from fresh cow's milk by traditional methods. The samples were

divided into two portions. Samples of 50gm weight from each

portion were treated as follows: portion one was stored in whey

at two temperature levels (fridge 5c°&room 30c°).Portion two

was stored out of whey in polythene bags at the same

temperature (fridge and room).The stored sample were stored

for 60 days &examined at 15 day interval during ripening for

changes in the physicochemical and biochemical qualities.

The results indicated that cold storage favors increase in cheese

weight since cheese samples stored at fridge temperature in

whey maintained significant (p≤0.05) higher weight compared

to room temperature and in fridge without whey. The total solids

content stored out of whey at room temperature was higher than

samples stored in whey. Storage out of whey at both

temperature levels is fevor total solid content. The ash content

on the other hand was found to be positively affected by storage

in whey at both storage temperature levels.

Both protein and fat content was found to be favored by storage

out of whey at room temperature.

The pH was observed to decrease while the titratable acidity

increased during storage.

The effect of storage on both parameters was significant (P

≤0.05).

Chapter One Introduction

The cattle population of the Sudan is estimated to be 42 million heads

according to Anon (2004).

This wealth is unevenly distributed, although the Northern, River Nile,

Eastern and Khartoum states sustain 25% of the human population only 5% of

the cattle is reared in these states. The bulk of the cattle population in the Sudan

is in the hands of nomads and one- third of the total is located in the Southern

region.

The Federal Ministry of Animal Resources (FMAR) estimated that the

annual milk production in the country in the year 2001 amounted to 7.005

thousand metric tons; of this amount Khartoum state contributed only 0.235

thousand metric tons (3.35%), to make use of the surplus of milk production

manufacture of dairy products that extend the shelf life of milk sound logical.

Manufacture of cheese is one of the routes traditionally adopted to

lengthen the keeping quality of raw milk.

Fermented milk product among which is cheese is traditional foods

especially in countries with warm climates. In these countries raw milk rapidly

sour by certain infecting microorganisms. Moreover persons with lactose

intolerance can safely consume cultured dairy products with enhanced

nutritional benefits.

The annual reports of (FMAR) 2001 pointed that the total annual

production of cheese in the Sudan was (650) thousand metric tons.

Khartoum state produced only 1.5% of the total cheese produced in the country

indicating that 98.5% was produced in the rural areas in Kordofan and White

Nile states.

Among the types of cheese produced in the Sudan is the semi-hard

cheese known locally as Mudaffara cheese or Majdula cheese which is a type of

braided cheese in a special way to form a product of better keeping quality than

the well known white cheese. (Elwasiela, et-al. 1997)

Mudaffara cheese is characterized by close texture, yellowish color and

slightly acidic with salty taste (Elshikh, 1997). There are some cheese in the

world that resemble the Sudanese Mudaffara cheese such as Kashkaval in the

Balkan, region, Rommi in the middle east, Cociocoralla in Italy, Ras cheese in

Egypt, Magdoula cheese in Syria and Pasta Filata, a group which includes

Provolone and Mozzarella cheeses. (El-sheikh, 1997).

Mudaffara cheese production in the Sudan is a small business, and a standard

procedure is adopted by the different producers for its production. Moreover research

dealing with the physiochemical, organoleptic, and keeping qualities of Mudaffara

cheese are very meager.

The objective of this work was to investigate the effect of:

Two storage conditions (in or out of whey ) and two ripening temperature

(fridge and room ) on changes associated with the chemical composition and

weight losses during storage intervals of (0-15-30-45-60 days).

Chapter Two 2- Literature Review

2.1 - Cheese:

Cheese probably was the first product made from milk.; Shakir

(1993) reported that the archaeological evidence clearly indicated that

cheese production was known since ancient period extending back to

5000 years B. C. the author cited that two albaster pots which contained

cheese was found in Sagara (Egypt) that dated back to the first phronic

dynasty.

Cheese can be defined in a variety of terms. Pyne (1990) defined

cheese as the solid curd with some or all of the whey drained off and

either used in its fresh or further during storage. The curd is formed by

the action of lactic acid bacteria, organic acid or rennet.

2.2 - Types of cheese:-

It is difficult to make a strict classification of all the existing types

of cheese, because there are many border line cases. Some descriptive

criteria are suggested by Kosikowski (1982) such as coagulant method;

water content, micro organisms used for ripening and cheese texture.

Cheese has been more widely made than any other dairy product

with the result that there are many varieties. Eekles etal, (1951) claimed

that there are probably about 18 distinct varieties of cheese with more

than 400 commercial names according to localities of production.

Olson (1953) postulated that the type or variety of cheese

produced in a particular country is determined largely by the type of the

lactating animal , the climatic conditions, and taste.

2.3- The Classification:-

1- Soft cheese:

(i) Unripened

(ii) Ripened by bacteria

(iii) Ripened by molds

White soft cheese (Gibna beida) falls into the type of soft and semi-

soft pickled cheeses. The cheese may be consumed fresh but more

commonly after maturation in salt brine or salted whey in sealed

containers. The brine solution and salted whey improve the flavor of the

cheese and act as a preservative. The pickling process constitutes the

primary difference between this group and other typical soft cheese of

temperate zones. Under warm conditions, cheese deteriorates rapidly

before ripening so salting becomes essential for its preservation

(Abdalla(1992)and Abdel-Razig(1996)).

“Gibna beida” and domiati cheese differ basically from other soft

pickled cheese in being salted at the first step in their manufacture when

salt is added directly to milk before reneting (Dirar,(1993)).

2- Semi-Hard cheese:

(i) Ripened by bacteria

(ii) Ripened by molds

(iii) Ripened by whey

Mudaffara cheese is a local braided semi-hard cheese, as known in the

urban communities of the Sudan (EI-sheikh,(1997)). Ahmed (1987)

reported that the yield of Mudaffara cheese increase with added skim

milk powder and the quality improves when 5% milk powder was added

to fresh cow’s milk.

For goats milk the addition of 2.5% milk powder increased yield

without a significant change in quality.

2-3 HARD CHEESE

In hard cheese a large proportion of moisture is drained from the curd

during the process making the finished cheese hard and dry.

Close – textured hard cheese are made with starter culture which

evolve very little carbon dioxide ,and all the lactose is fermented before

final forming takes place.

2.4- Factors affecting yield, chemical composition of cheese.

2.4.1- Milk composition:

Many constituents affect the manufacturing and various characteristics

of cheese. However milk fat and protein are of major importance since they

constitute in addition to water a major factor affecting the yield the gross

composition of cheese (Vakaleris and Brice (1952).)

Olson (1953) claimed that milk high in fat will give a higher yield of

cheese than milk low in fat. However the yield will not be in proportion to

the fat percentage. The reason for this is that the percentage of casein in

milk does not increase in the same proportion as the fat. And also found

that the yield of cheese from a given quantity of milk depends on:

(i) Percentage of fat and casein in milk.

(ii) Percentage of fat and casein in the whey.

(iii) Moisture content of the cheese.

Milk fat plays an important role in the development of texture.

Low fat cheese tends to be firmer and more elastic than those with a high

fat content. (Johnson, (1978))

Ahmed and Khalifa (1989) studied the white soft cheese made from recombined milk. They demonstrated that yield of cheese from fresh cow’s milk, and that recombined with 1% and 2% powder milk was 19.5, 35.0 and 41.5 kg/100 kg milk respectively. The total protein content was 21.32, 14.01, and 11.02%, the moisture content was 56.6, 68.43and 66.79%, the acidity was o.40, 0.9 and 1.20% and the ash content was 4.48, 4.82 and 4.13% respectively.

Page 13: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

6

Patel etal. (1986) found that the protein content of Mozzarella

cheese manufactured from pasteurized buffalo’s milk with 6% fat ranged

between 15.8% and 18.2%.

2.4.2 - Heat treatment:-

Pasteurization of milk for cheese making leads to better control of

pathogenic organisms, uniform product quality, standardized cheese

making and slightly greater yield, but it prevents a fully typical flavor

development and may affect the texture of cheese (Kosikowski(1958)).

The scalding temperature determines the firmness of the curd by

contracting the curd particles driving out the free whey and influencing the

curd texture (Kosikowski, (1982), Lawrence et-al (1984)).

El-Koussy (1966) reported that fresh cheese made from heat treated

milk was superior to that made from raw milk with regard to body and

texture.

Patel etal (1986) stated that heat treated milk for cheese making leads

to a significant increase in protein and total solids content and consequently

reduced the loss in whey.

2.4. 3 - Sodium chloride: Nacl

Sodium chloride improves flavor, texture and appearance of

cheese; stops production of lactic acid after an optimum peak has been

attained, suppresses the growth of spoilage organisms and reduces moisture

content of cheese (Kosikowski, (1982). Salt can be added to cheese in four

ways:

(i) In the whey.

(ii) In the curd.

(iii) On the rind.

(iv) In brine.

Page 14: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

7

The first two methods are called early salting. In early salting, the

salt is added before lactic acid is completely formed thus influence acid

develop. Often a combination of early and late salting is used. In natural

ripened cheese salting prior to renneting delays coagulation (Kosikowski,

1982)

EI-Gazzar and EI-Sayed (1989) reported that cheese stored in whey

with 10% salt generally had slightly lower salt content and had higher

ripening indices than cheese stored in whey with 15% salt.

EI-Batawy etal (1989) concluded that salting method had a

significant effect on chemical and physiochemical composition of Ras

cheese. Salama etal (1982) stated that the higher was the concentration of

salt in pickling the higher was the salt content in Brizo cheese.

EI-Gazzar etal (1983) reported that low level of salt (5%) gave the

best kashkaval cheese in shorter time of ripening.

2.4.4 - Acidity:

Fermentation is the only available method of preserving some or

all of the milk nutrients.

Lactic acid bacteria are used in milk fermentation because of their

ability to improve the flavor, texture, aroma and safety of perishable raw

materials (Ricciardi and Clementi (2000)).

Acid production in the cheese vat affects cheese composition and

texture because this largely determines the basic structure of cheese

souring, inhibits and eventually destroys many pathogen particularly,

typhoid, paratyphoid and pathogenic coliforms beside inhibition of other

spoilage bacteria (Kon,1984,Lawrence etal.

Garvie and Farrow (1984) and Abdalla (1992) reported that

mesophilic lactic acid bacteria can tolerate up to 4% (NaCl).

8

2.4.5- Calcium chloride (CaCl2) CaCl2 is used in cheese making to enhance curd formation

(Kosikowki and Mocquot, 1958).There are limitations to the use of CaCl2 where larger quantities than recommended give a bitter flavor to cheese (McMahon and Broun,(1985)).

In the literature recommended doses were advocated: 5-20 gm of CaCl2 chloride per 100 kg of milk is normally enough

to achieve a constant coagulation time and result in sufficient firmness of the coagulum. Excessive addition of CaCl2 may make the coagulum so hard that it is difficult to cut.( dairy processing . handbook.)

2.4.6 - Milk coagulation enzymes Chymosin is an enzyme obtained by extracting the fourth stomach

of suckling calves, commercially known as rennet. It is sensitive to heat, shaking light, alkali and chemicals. The coagulum formed by rennet governs the state of whey drainage from curd, and hence the moisture content of the cheese (Kosikowski and Mocquot 1958). With the recent increase in cheese production, all over the word, combined with remarkable reduction in the production of rennet, many suggestions have been made to find suitable coagulation materials to be used as a substitute for the animal rennet. Solanum dubium fresen (Gubbain) a well known wild plant found in most regions of the Sudan is quit often used for milk coagulation especially in rural areas.

All the observed difference between the (Gubbain) and rennet cheese were statistically not significant (Mohamed and Habbani (1996))

Other vegetables used for milk coagulation in various parts of Sudan included:

Cadaba rotundifolia (kusmot) Capparis decidua (Tondop) Acacia nubica (Laot) Prosopis chilensis (Misceet) Hydnora abyssinica (Tartos) Catotropis procera (Usher) Hibiscus sabdariffa(white karkade) AllaGabo (1987)

2-5 Effect of storage on the chemical:-

2.5-1 Composition of cheese

Sharara (1959) investigated the changes occurring in the different

components of Domiati cheese when pickled in salted whey for intervals

of 4 months. He found that increasing the time of cheese pickling resulted

in decrease of the moisture content from 60% to55.53% and reported the

loss of moisture was due to the increase of acidity which affected the

contraction of the curd. He also showed that as ripening advanced, the fat

content of the cheese increased from 40.83% in fresh cheese to 47.53% at

4 months of storage, and that was probably due to the breakdown of

cheese proteins and their loss in whey.

Abd El-salam et al. (1978) reported that the moisture content of

fresh Domiati cheese was 60% and this value rapidly decease in the early

days of storage then followed by a gradual decrease there after.

They also added that the changes in moisture content of Domiati were

largely dependent on the temperature of storage. At low temperature

Domiati cheese would retain high moisture over a long period. However

the moisture content of the cheese rapidly decreases when cheese stored

at low temperature then rose to room temperature.

They also reported that the acidity of the cheese rapidly increased

during the first month of storage, and then gradually decreased with

longer storage, periods and the development of acidity in pasteurized

milk cheese was much less than in raw milk cheese. During pickling, the

protein was decreased. Pasteurization, storage at low temperature and

high salt content dereased the protein break down.

Khalid (1991) studied the Sudanese white cheese from 6% and 8%

salted raw milk. He found that the moisture content of the cheese ranged

from 61.81 to 42.46%, and 63.80 to 39.62% respectively. The protein

content in 6% salted milk cheese increased gradually in the first 6 weeks

Page 17: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

10

from 11.79% to 18.5% and then decrease to 16.43% after 12 weeks of

storage that from 8% salted milk cheese increased from 14.30% to

18.94% and then decreased to 16.79%. The fat content of the cheese from

6% and 8% salted milk cheese ranged between15.32 and13.30percent

respectively. Acidity of the cheese ranged between 0.12 -1.52% for 6%

salted milk cheese and 0.12 – 1.28% for 8% salted milk cheese.

Chapter Three 3- Materials and Method

(3-1) Source of milk:-

The fresh cow's milk (raw material) used in the manufacture of

Mudaffara cheese in this experiment was obtained from University of

Khartoum Farm..

(3-2) Sources of rennet, starter cultures, spices and salt:-

Rennet sticks (Christen Hansen’s laboratories – Copenhagen,

Denmark) were obtained from the Ministry of Animal Resources (1 stick

coagulate 50 kg milk).

The starter culture was supplied by Preimier food product –

Khartoum North (Sudan)

Black cumin (Niglla sativa) and clean Sodium chloride (NaCl) in a

finely powdered form were obtained from the local market.

(3-3) Mudaffara cheese manufacture:-

Milk was heated to (40˚c). the optimum temperature for rennet is in

the region . Active starter culture (2% V/V) was added to milk and left

for (15) minutes to develop acidity (milk ripening period).

One stick powder of rennet was dissolved in glass of cold tap water

and added to the cheese milk at (40˚c) and stirred for 2 – 3 minutes to

ensure uniform distribution of rennet, then the cheese milk were left

undisturbed to settle and coagulate to develop a curd.

After complete coagulation Whey was allowed to drain from the

ripened curd before placing into a wooden plate and cut into slices during

which more whey draining occur. The whey was drained. The curd then

left in incubator (40˚c) for 3 hours until the required elasticity and acidity

was reached (0.54 – 0.60).The curd became smooth and elastic, and then

cut into strips, then cooked in warm water.

Page 19: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

12

Four to five pieces were taken at a time and put in a hot water

(60˚c) for 5–7minute using wooden paddles until the curd turned into

smooth paste that showed satisfactory stretching to a rope>4 meters long,

Ripening was assessed by testing the ability of the curd to be kneeled into

a four meter rope, while any breakage before this length was reached

would indicate inadequate, ripening. Black cumin Niglla sativa is added

to the hot paste before braiding. The curd then hand – worked and pulled

to form a long rope which was then braided, washed by immersing in

cold water.

The braided cheese was immersed into 13% sterilized salted whey

for two days for ripening.

The pieces of cheese are salted in brine and subsequently put

beside and on top of each other so as to fill the 10–15 kg tins which are

filled with brine.

This cheese is very popular and is consumed as stable food by the

Sudanese population; it is made at family level or in small cheese plants

for sale on local market.

3.4 Chemical analysis of milk and cheese:-

The chemical composition of milk was determined after heat

treatment, while the chemical composition of cheese was determined at (0

– 15 – 30 – 45 and 60 days of storage periods).

3.4-1 Fat content:-

The fat content was determined by the Gerber method (AOAC,

1990). A10 ml sulphuric acid (density 1.815gm/ml) was poured into clean

dry Gerber tubes, then 3gm of minced cheese were added, then 1ml of

amyl alcohol was added to the tube followed by addition of distilled

water. The contents in the tube were thoroughly mixed till no white

particles were seen the tubes were centrifuged at 1100rpm for 5 minutes

Page 20: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

13

and transferred to water bath at 65˚c for 3 minutes. The fat column

s e p a r a t ed w a s r e a d a n d t a k en a s p e r ce n t f a t i n s a mp l e .

3.4-2 Protein content:-

The protein content was determined by kjeldahl method AOAC,

1990, in kjeldahl flask 3gm cheese were placed.

Two kjeldahl tablets (1 mg NaSO4 and equivalent of 0.1 mg Hg)

were added. Twenty five milliliter of concentrated sulfuric acid

(Density of 1.86 mg/ml at 20 ˚c) were added to the flask. The mixture

was then digested on a heater until a clean solution was obtained (2-5

hours), and the flasks were remove and left too cool.

The digested sample was poured in a volumetric flask (100ml) and

diluted to 100 ml with distilled water. The distillate was received in a

conical flask containing 25 ml of 2% boric acid plus 3drops of indicator

(bromocerol green plus methyl red).

The distillation was continued until the volume in the flask was 75

ml. the flask was then removed from the distillatory.

The distillate was then titrated against 0.1 NHCI until the end point

was obtained (red color).

Protein content was calculated as follows:

Nitrogen (%) = T X 0.1X 0.014 X 20

Weight of sample

Protein (%) =Nitrogen (%) X 6.38

Where =

T = Titration figure

0.1= Normality of HCI

0.014=Atomic weight of Nitrogen 2/1000

20= Dilution factor.

3.4-3 Total solids content:-

Total solids content was determined according to the modified

method of AOAC (1990). Two grams of cheese sample was placed in a

clean dried flat bottomed aluminum dish. The weight of sample and dish

were recorded, and the dishes were heated on a steam bath for 10- 15

minutes and placed to an air oven at 100 ˚c for 3 hours.

The dishes were transferred to desicator to cool and weighted.

Heating, cooling and weighting were repeated several times until the

difference between successive weightings was less than 0.5 mg. The total

solids content was calculated from the following equation:

Total solids (%) = W1 X 100

W0

Where:

W1 = Weight of sample after drying.

W0 = Weight of sample before drying.

3.4-5 Ash content:

The ash content was determined according to AOAC (1990). Two

grams of cheese were weighed into a suitable clean dry crucible and

evaporated to dryness on a steam bath, and crucibles were placed in a

muffle furnace at 550 ˚c for 1.5-2 hours, cooled in a desicator and

weighed. The ash content was calculated as follows:

Ash (%) = W X 100 Wە Where:

Chapter Four 4- RESULT & DISCUSION

4.1 Composition of milk and cheese:

The chemical composition of milk sample used for manufacturing

of braided cheese in this study was as fellows:

5% fat, 3.7 % protein, 13.8 % total solids and 0.5 % ash.

The titratable acidity and pH of the milk were 0.4 % and 5.8

respectively. In the present study 100 1b of milk yielded an average of

13.2 1b of braided cheese. This yield of cheese was higher than that

reported by Abdel Razig (2000)(11 lb from 100 lb). Variation in

cheese yield is mainly attributed to difference in total solids as

coagulable solids in each case (Zaki et al., 1974; Patel et al., 1986).

4.2 Chemical changes in braided cheese during ripening

4.2-1 Total solids %

Changes in total solids of cheese sample as affected by storage period

temperature of storage and whey presence are shown in table (1)

The data revealed constituent pattern in total solids content of treatment

(1) (cheese stored in whey at room temp.)where by the total solids

content was 60. 6±.030 in fresh sample (0 day) that increased to

66.3±.030 in day 15 and decreased to 60.2±.030 in day 30 rising up again

to 62.6±.030 in day 45 and declined to 61.9±0.030 in day 60.The change

in total solids of the same sample at cold storage decreased consistently

from day 0 to day 60.The fresh sample total solids content was

60.6±0.030 which decreased steadily as storage period advances to attain

a value of 52.2±0.030 after 2 month storage.

On the other hand cheese sample in total solids (storage without whey) exhibited a different pattern in total solids content .Samples stored at

Page 24: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

17

room temperature showed a significant increase in total solids with the advancement of storage period. Fresh samples (day0) total solids content was 60.6±0.030 and which increased progressively to 79.7±0.030 in the 60 day stored samples. The samples of the same treatment (no whey) but stored in cold storage behaved differently whereby the total solids content showed a declining total solids content from 60.6±0.030 in fresh samples to 55.4±0.030 in 60 day stored It was marked from the result in table(1) that storage at room temperature favors total solids content in cheese .The samples stored at room temperature with or without whey secured higher value of total solids compared to cold storage .The increase of total solids under room temperature storage may be attributed to the greater loss in moisture content. Nofal etal (1981),Abedl Razig(1996) and Elshikh(1997) postulated similar justification .They reported that storage at high temperature caused desirable physical condition of curd that permitted the whey to filter off through and among particles . The increase in total solids in the samples stored at room temperature compared to those stored at cold storage conditions is in hence with the finding reported by Dariani et al. (1980)and Abdella(1992). Those auther documented that decrease in total solids was due to dissolution of total protein, salt and fats into pickling solution or absorption of pickling whey by curd the present result ,that samples stored in whey looses more in their total solids content than samples stored without whey under both storage temperature .This confirm further the result of Dariani et al . (1980) and Abdalla (1992).Further Vas et al. (1930) and Forch (1931) claimed that heating hastened expulsion of whey from the curd ,increasing elasticity leading to changes in texture so that it more compact with few opening and altered bacterial flora. Curd, increasing elasticity leading to change in texture so that it is more compact and has fewer opening and altered bacterial flora.

4.2-2 Fat %

Data describing the changes that occur in fat content in the cheese

samples stored at room or cold temperature and with or without

whey throughout the storage period of 60 days is displayed in

table(2)

The values of fat content were inconsistent In treatment (1)(cheese

stored at room temperature in whey) the fat% was 25% in the fresh

sample and increased to 28% after 15 days of storage. The fat%

decreased slightly to 27% during the next 15 days (i.e at one month

storage), and maintained the same level during the next two weeks

of storage (i.e27% at 45 days storage), and declined to 25% by the

end of storage period (60 days)

The same sample of cheese stored in the refrigerator showed little

changes in fat%: Fresh sample (25%), 15 days sample (25%) and

then declined to 22% throughout the storage period.

The other cheese samples stored without whey at room temperature

maintained significantly (p< 0.01) more fat content compared to

the same sample at room temperature but in whey. The respective

values were 32and25% respectively indicating that storage of

cheese in whey had affected fat content adversely. This conclusion

was previously claimed by Nofal etal (1981),AllaGabo (1987) and

Abdalla(1992),who stated that when cheese was stored in whey

,the fat leakage in the brine solution resulted in a decrease in fat

content in the cheese. This is quite evident when cheese content of

samples stored in whey and without it was compared for both

temperature levels and storage duration.

The fat content of cheese stored without whey was always superior

to that of the respective samples stored in whey for both levels of

storage temperature and the different periods of storage (table2).

20

Kim et al. (1992) provided evidence that Chedddar cheese stored in

whey showed a decreased fat content .This decrease in fat content

was more evident in samples stored in cold storage condition

compared to room temperature conditions.

Elerian et al. (1976) and Abdel Razig (1996) advocated that

storage at room temperature resulted in cheese with high fat

content compared to cold storage .They referred that to the rapid

loss of moisture in samples stored at room temperature.Telegn etal

(1974) and Kuashik (1998) also claimed that cold storage

conditions resulted in lower fat content due to high moisture

content.

4.2-3 Changes in cheese weight

The changes (gain or loss) of the initial samples of cheese as

affected by: storage temperature, presence of whey and the duration of

storage are described in table (3).

The data revealed that the initial weight (50gm of sample stored in

whey at room temperature) experienced little negative changes

throughout the storage periods. The weight declined to 47.9 ±.00 gm,

45.7±.00gm 43.1±.00 gm & 54 .4±.00 gm during the 15, 30, 45 and 60

days of storage respectively .In and opposite direction the respective

sample that was stored in the fridge showed a steady increase in weight

through the different storage periods .The initial weight (50gm) increased

to 53.3±.00, 54.9±.00, 55.6±.00 and 55.7±.00 for the 15, 30, 45 and 60

days of storage respectively. The different in weight due to storage

temperature was significant P <0.05 in favor of cold storage.

On the other hand ,the other two cheese samples stored without

whey at the same previous temperature and for the same periods indicated

that room –stored samples suffered most in weight loss in this category

,the initial weight (50gm) decreased steadily to 45.8, 42.1,43.1 and 32.6

gm for the 15, 30, 45 and 60 days. This sample loses about 8.7% by the

end of the 60 days storage period .The same samples stored in cold

conditions suffered a loss of only 0.35%by the end of 60days storage

period.

The pattern of change in weight suggests clearly that storage of

cheese without whey and at room temperature was most favorable for

weight loss that maximizes with the advancement of the storage period

The pattern also showed that cold storage in whey is conclusive for

cheese to maintain its weight throughout the studied durations of storage.

The low storage temperature inhibits moisture loss and the cheese retains

high moisture thus decreasing curd shrinkage and maintaining the initial

Page 30: Effect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on · PDF fileEffect of Temperature and Storage Conditions on ... of better keeping quality than the well known white cheese. ... a major

23

weight .Nofal etal (1981)and Elsheikh(1990)provided similar justification

in their studies. Gosh and Singh(1992)also documented that cheese stored

at room temperature lost more than that stored in the fridge.

Telgin(1976) reported that weight losses were lower in cheese

stored in vacuum polythene/cellophane containers for up to 4 months of

storage. The vacuumed polythene/cellophane containers restrict moisture

losses the same effect of cold storage, thus reducing weight losses.

The present results also comply with the finding of Scott (1986)

who reported that cooking cause protein matrix to shrink and expel more

whey.

Higher weight losses associated with higher storage temperature

were also documented by Yeun etal (1993), who reported that higher

cooking temperature produced cheese with lower moisture content and

hence lowered weight.

Ekoussy(1966),Zaki etal(1974)and Hamed(1992)postulated that

the decrease in weight of cheese stored at room temperature resulted from

curd contraction and water expulsion.

The gain in weight witnessed in cheese stored in whey at fridge

temperature too could be attributed to absorption of pickling whey by the

curd Darian etal (1986).Other authors concluded that, the moisture

content of cheese decreased during storage, a phenomenon attributed to

curd contraction and expulsion of whey as a result of acid development

Zaki,etal (1994)and Nofal etal ,(1981).

The present finding are compatible with those reported, by Abdel

Razig (2000) who found that ,the weight of cheese significantly

decreased as storage time progressed and the loss in weight of samples

stored at room temperature was significantly (p≤0.05) higher than that

stored in cold store. The cheese retained moisture at low temperature

more than at high temperature, as a result of low degree of curd

24

shrinkage. The author further elucidated that lower weight losses in cold

storage in whey may be attributed to the decreased salt level in the whey

storage medium that causes decreased losses in both moisture and weight

of cheese due to natural osmotic phenomenon.

4.2-4 Ash %

The ash content of the cheese samples is presented in table (4). The

pattern of changes in whey content in all samples was inconsistent

:In samples stored in whey at both room &fridge temperature the

ash content increased from 5.4±.094 in day 0(fresh samples) to

6.3&6.1%in samples stored for 15 days at room &cold store

respectively. Ash content continued to increase in samples stored

for30 days &the increase was more evident in samples stored at

fridge temperature compared to room temperature 2.4% verse5.7%

storage of cheese for more than one month resulted in declining ash

content 3.6 verse 4.8% for 45 days storage & 1.7verse 2.4% for

two month storage period.

The cheese samples stored out of whey under the two respectively

temperatures (room fridge) showed eminent changes during the

four storage periods. The fresh samples content of ash was

5.4±0.094.As the storage periods progresses ash content varies in

none consistent pattern at both temperature levels. The room

temperature samples decreased to 3.5±0.094, increased to

4.2±0.094& then decreased to 2.1±0.094&0.6±0.094 during the 15

days, 30 days, 45 days&60 days respectively. The cold stored

samples behaved similarly where as ash content varied to

3.7±0.094, 4.2±0.094, 3.9±0.094&2.2±0.094 as storage period

progressed.

During pickling ash content followed a trend some what similar to

total solids. Indicating that ash content in curd and whey was very

much affected by diffusion of salt from curd into whey, Abdalla

(1992).

4.2-5 Protein content

The Protein content of the braided cheese samples also showed an

inconsistent pattern at different storage periods and the two

temperature levels. The samples stored in whey at room

temperature secured the highest level of protein 30.9±0.338 when

stored for 15 days. 26.3 ±0.338 for 30& 45 days of storage to

increase once more to 29.5±0.338 by the end of at 60 days.

The samples stored at fridge temperature witnessed a sharp

declining in protein during the first storage periods(15) days from

29.7±0.338 in day 0 to23.8±0.338 in day 15 .The records changes

in protein content during the following storage period were as

fellows 25.7±0.338,23.8±0.338&26.9±0.338 during the 30,45&60

days storage periods..

On the other hand the samples stored out of whey at room

temperature recorded the highest protein content (35.7±0.338%

during the 15 day storage period. The protein then declined to

33.4±0.338 in the next 15 days (30 day storage & declined sharply

to 28.7±0.338 by the end of storage period (60 days).

The highest protein content in cold storage samples was recorded

during the 45 day storage period (29.8±0.338%).

In general both tested samples (with& without whey) at room and

fridge temperature) indicated that the cheese retained the maximum

protein percent when stored for 15 days at room significantly (p ≤

0.05) as storage period progressed, then decreased .The storage of

cheese without whey significant (p≤0.05) favored protein percent

where by the protein content where 35.7±0.338 versus 30.9±0.338

for samples stored out of whey and those stored in whey

respectively.

29

This inconsistent pattern of protein cheese has been reported

previously by several authors.

Low storage temperature delays the ripening of cheese as a result

of its effect on the number and activity of lactic acid bacteria and

proteolytic organism and consequently lowering the rate of protein

decomposition (Nofal et al., 1981).

In fact as ripening progressed the percentage of total protein

decreased considerably due to degradation of protein and loss to

the whey.

Protein content decreased over time, the decreased in Protein

content during pickling was direct result of protein degradation

leading to the formation of water – soluble compounds, some of

which were lost in the pickling solution (Zaki et al., 1974;

Nagmoush et al., 1978; Abde Salam,1979; ( Nofal et al., 1981;).

Alla Ggabo (1986), (Dariani et al., 1980). Abdalla (1992). Abed-

Razig (2000) Elsheikh (1979)

The slight increased in Protein content of cheese recorded in this

work could be due to the slight weight loss which lead to high

protein content this result agreed with (Ross,1982;) and

(Boden,1991; ).

Cooking temperature did not significantly affect protein content.

CHAPTER FIVE Conclusion & Recommendation

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of storage

period and storage condition on the yield and chemical composition of

Mudaffara cheese made from cow's milk.

Mudaffara cheese was made from cow's milk and store in jars (in whey)

and polythene bag (out of whey) at room temperature and refrigerator

respectively.

Cheese yield, weight loss and chemical composition were carried out at

0,15,30,45 and 60 days interval.

The following conclusions can be drawn:

• Braided"Mudaffara"cheese loses weight during storage for ripening

as a result of loss in moisture even at low temperature storage.

However samples stored in whey at low temperature gained

weight.

• Major components of braided cheese such as fat and protein

showed inconsistent pattern during storage period.

• A significant (p≤0.05) increase in level of the titratable acidity

during storage of cheese coupled with a concomitant decrease in

pH particularly at room temperature storage.

• Protein content was significantly (p≤0.05) degraded.

32

Recommendations

• Braided cheese prepared traditionally is recommended to be brined

in whey for not more than one month at both levels of storage

temperature.

• For cheese manufacture high quality milk from healthy animals

should be used according to the Sudanese standard No (107) for

raw milk.

• Pasteurization of milk is of major concern to produce a safe

product.

• Good manufacturing conditions are important for good quality

product.

• Proper handling, transportation, storage and marketing should be at

satisfaction level.

• Workers in cheese making plants should be in healthy conditions,

with routine health check up.

• It is essential that a standardized production process on industrial

scales be developed and hygienic quality be improved.

• Cheese is advised to be stored in polythene bags in fridge to

decrease weight loss.

• To obtain high quality cheese with high protein content ,cheese can

be stored in polythene bags at room temperature for not more than

two weeks.
