  • Patent number: 11896022
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for making low-moisture mozzarella cheese using recent developments in the technical knowledge about the interactions between cultures, coagulants and cheese technology to increase cheese yields and maintain the cheese quality and functionalities. An optimization may lead to a higher pH and higher dry matter of the curd at the whey off step i.e. pH higher than 6.3 and ideally higher than 6.4 and solid non-fact content higher than 18%, without any modification of the curd composition at the stretching step, i.e. pH between 5.0 and 5.3 and more precisely between without any modification of the curd composition at the stretching step, i.e. pH between 5.0 and 5.3 and more precisely between 5.05 and 5.25, Ca/SNF between 1.7% and 2.4% and more precisely between 1.7 and 2.2%, dry matter between 53% and 55% and more precisely between 53.5% and 54.5%. The coagulant has a C/P ratio of at least 25.

  • Publication number: 20150274193
    Abstract: A steering apparatus includes a pinion shaft, a rack shaft, a bearing member, an accommodating member and a pressing member. The pinion shaft has a pinion. The rack shaft has a rack which meshes with the pinion of the pinion shaft. The bearing member has a bearing portion which supports the rack shaft in such a manner that the rack shaft is slidable in an axial direction of the rack shaft, and a protruding portion which protrudes from the bearing portion in a radial direction of the rack shaft and the axial direction. The accommodating member accommodates the bearing member. The pressing member is inserted into the accommodating member in the axial direction, and axially presses the protruding portion of the bearing member against the accommodating member.
