Abstract:

Post-acidification is one of the most important factors affecting starter culture selection for the production of yogurt. In this paper, the affecting factors and related genetic mechanisms of starter culture post-acidification are summarized and reviewed. This paper will offer references for fundamentally solving and controlling starter culture post-acidification for the production of high-quality yogurt.

Key words: starter culture, post-acidification, heredity, mechanism
