Abstract:

A mixed fermentation starter of Lactobacillus casei and Staphylococcus xylosus were applied for the production of beef sausages. The effects of 4 sugars on the fermentation were investigated by single-factor method and their addition amounts were optimized using an orthogonal array design involving 9 experiments of four factors at three levels. The results showed that the optimum sugar compositions for the fermentation of beef sausages were determined as follows: glucose 0.6%, sucrose 0.8%, lactose 0.6% and maltose 0.4%.

Key words: Lactobacillus casei, Staphylococcus xylosus, fermented beef sausage, sugar, fermentation
