Abstract

Purpose. To determine the effect of sunflower protein concentrate on the amino acid composition of cheeses made on the basis of goat's milk. Materials and Methods. In the conditions of the complex analytical laboratory of VRIMMP, 3 samples of semi-hard cheese were produced, one of which was a control without additives and 2 – experimental (No. 1 and No. 2) with a percentage of protein concentrate of 1.0 and 2.5% of the total weight of the cheese. Cheese samples were produced using traditional technology in accordance with GOST R 52686-2006. The active acidity of the samples was monitored using a portable pH meter testo 206-pH2 with the function of determining pH and temperature. The protein content was studied using an analyzer based on the Kjeldahl method. Indicators of the mass fraction of fat were determined using glass butyrometers type 1-6 according to GOST 5867-90. The mass fraction of moisture was determined by drying the sample in calcined sand at a temperature of 103°C. Analysis of the amino acid composition of the finished samples was carried out on a Kapel 105M analyzer (Lumex LLC, St. Petersburg, Russia). Results. The protein content in cheese sample No. 1 is 1.4% higher than in the control, and the content of this indicator in sample No. 2 exceeds the control by 2.8%. The amino acid composition in the samples in which protein concentrate was introduced into the recipe exceeds the content of this indicator in the control sample, which indicates a beneficial effect of the introduced component on the nutritional value of the finished product. The moisture content in the experimental samples decreased compared to the control due to the introduction of the additive and an increase in dry matter: in sample No. 1 – by 1.42%, and in sample No. 2 – by 2.86%. A slight increase in fat was found in cheese samples No. 1 and No. 2, but the indicator was within the normal range, which corresponds to this type of product. Conclusion. The use of goat milk as a raw material for the production of various types of cheeses is a promising direction for dairy producers food products. Rich composition makes goat's milk an indispensable food product for both children and adults. Compared to the milk of other animals, goat's milk is easily digestible, has hypoallergenic properties, due to which it is in high demand among people watching their diet or suffering from various types of food allergies. The conducted research and obtained data indicate the prospect of using this type of raw material as a complete base, and the use of protein concentrate in the production formulation will allow to obtain an enriched product with increased protein content.
