The term LD culture indicates the presence of the two aroma-forming bacteria, Leuconostoc and L. diacetylactis, which are characterized by their ability to produce aroma and gas by converting the citrate in milk into the flavor compound diacetyl and CO2. LD cultures are widely used in the production of soft cheeses like traditional Camembert and in continental cheeses with round eyes e.g. Gouda cheese. When producing the continental cheese types, one of the quality features is the right holes or "eye" formation. The size and the number of eyes in the cheese are some of the most difficult things to control. To a certain degree this eye formation is dependent on the rate of citrate fermentation in the cheese (measured as mg of citrate fermented after 24 hours). The composition between acid producing strains and aroma-forming strains as well as the ratio between L. cremoris and L. diacetylactis, can be related to the rate of metabolism of citrate. However, many non-culture related factors are also involved e.g. production process, temperature, salt content, etc. The best known Chr. Hansen mesophilic aromatic cultures are the CH-N, Flora Danica, DCC and EASY-SET® FLORA series. L cultures and D cultures, which only consist of either Leuconostoc or L. diacetylactis as the aroma-forming bacteria, are only used in cheese production to a limited extent. This is due to the traditional use of LD cultures in continental cheese production. Recent developments with Chr. Hansen has created a new Edam EASY-SET® FLORA C100 and C900 range which is a L culture blend of both L and O components, ideal for Edam manufacturing and other cheese types when a cheese with small eyes and traditional cheese flavour is desired. Mesophilic homofermentative cultures – O culture O cultures only consist of the acid-producing strains, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis/cremoris. This type of culture is mainly used in Cheddar, Cottage Cheese, White Brined Cheese (Feta) and other cheese types in which a gas formation in the product is undesirable. The best known Chr. Hansen mesophilic homofermentative cultures are the R, FRC, and Mild O series. To improve the acidification activity of the O-type cultures for Cheddar and other fast cheese productions, a very fast series of cultures have been developed by blending mesophilic homofermentative cultures with S. thermophilus. During a typical Cheddar production the O culture will initiate the acidification during renneting at 30-32°C (86-90°F). However, due to the thermophilic nature of the S. thermophilus culture, this culture will take over the acidification during the scalding step at 37-40°C (98-104°F), and continue on the belt during the cheddaring process allowing the manufacturer to reach target pH quickly. Thermophilic cultures – ST culture - are mainly used in cheese in which either a scalding temperature 40-54°C (104-130°F) is used e.g. in hard cheese like Emmenthaler, Gruyere and Grana, or a high scalding temperature during cheese make is used, e.g. 37°C (98°F), as in the soft cheese types like Cresenza and stabilised Brie types, or in the Pasta filata types like Mozzeralla and Pizza cheese. For Emmenthaler and Gruyere types of cheeses, S. thermophilus and L. helveticus are normally used. L. helveticus is able to ferment the galactose which is secreted by the S. thermophilus, and processes a high proteolytic activity, giving the required proteolysis and desired flavor. -7- 7 In production of Pasta filata types of cheese as well as different US style pizza cheeses, S. thermophilus is used as the main culture - sometimes in a blend with either L. bulgaricus or L. helveticus to obtain the right characteristics of the cheese. For production of Pasta Filata it is important to have a very fast acidifying and phage resistant culture. Examples of Chr. Hansen cultures for this application are STI, TCC, and TCC-20. Propionic acid bacteria may not be classified as real lactic acid bacteria, but they are used in the production of certain cheeses (Emmenthaler, Swiss, Maasdam, etc.), in which large eyes and sweet nutty flavors are desirable. Examples of Chr. Hansen cultures for this application are the PS series. Flavor Control™ cultures are regarded as a "package" of bacteria added as adjunct cultures, containing the right enzymes to modify the ripening process incl. foil ripening/rindless cheese. During ripening the additional bacteria added will lyses, releasing the intracellular enzymes into the cheese matrix and in this way modify the ripening process. Examples of Chr. Hansen cultures are CR-200, CR-300, and CR Full Flavor series. SWING® cultures are a range of aerobic cultures which can be divided into four main categories: Mold, Yeast, Brevibacterium and others. Due to the aerobic nature of the SWING® cultures, they mainly grow on the surface of cheese. The SWING® Mold cultures are mainly used in the production of white mold cheeses like Brie, Camembert and blue mold cheeses like Gorgonzola. The two most important types of mold are the white mold Penicillium candidum and the blue mold Penicillium roqueforti. SWING® Yeast is often used to stimulate the growth of other microorganisms as Brevibacterium on the cheese surface, due to their ability to increase pH by fermenting lactic acid. SWING® Brevibacterium (or the so-called "smear cultures") are traditionally smeared on the surface of cheese just after brining. Brevibacterium are very salt tolerant and have a strong proteolytic activity. During growth on the cheese surface, Brevibacterium linens creates a characteristic orange color and smear layer. Due to the high protein degradation on the cheese surface, flavor compounds penetrate into the centre of the cheese and give the characteristic ripened flavor of smear cheeses. We are pleased to present this overview of our cultures where innovation and responsiveness to market go hand in hand. -8- 8 Distinguishing Characteristics of Lactic Acid Bacteria Schematic illustration Organism Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris O Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis D Lactococcus lactis subsp.
