Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for deacidifying, neutralizing or alkalinizing a starting liquid or fluid acid dairy composition, comprising: a) providing a liquid or fluid acid dairy composition comprising lactic acid; b) inoculating the composition with at least one yeast; c) incubating the inoculated composition; d) recovering a deacidified, neutralized or alkalinized liquid or fluid acid dairy composition with a reduced concentration of lactic acid.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a fermented product by synergistic co-fermentation of Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei.

Abstract: The use of at least one sulphur-containing amino acid, at a total concentration of about 5 to 75 mg/ml, in particular of about 5 to about 50 mg/l, in particular of about 5 to about 30 mg/l, in particular of about 5 to about 20 mg/l, in free form, for implementing a method for preparing a fermented food product fermented by ferments containing bifidobacteria, the food product has acceptable sensory properties, contains more than about 5×107, in particular more than about 108 bifidobacteria per gram of food product fermented for a shelf lifetime of at least 30 days, in particular a shelf lifetime of at least 35 days, and containing no more than 0.5% of yeast extract or of yeast autolysate.

Abstract: The invention concerns mainly a non-solid fermented food product containing ferments comprising about 5·107, in particular more than about 108 bifidobacteria per gram of food product fermented for a shelf lifetime of at least 30 days, in particular of at least 35 days.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of acacia gum (or gum Arabic) possibly in combination with sulphur-containing amino acids, for improving the growth and survival of bifidobacteria which are part of the manufacture of fermented food products, in particular, of fermented milk products.
