DuPont Introduces a New Generation of Protective Dairy Cultures
15 Oct 2013 --- DuPont Nutrition & Health has expanded its range of protective dairy cultures with the introduction of HOLDBAC YM Plus, part of the DuPont Danisco range. Controlling contamination of fermented dairy products by yeast and mold is one of the greatest challenges facing dairy manufacturers.
HOLDBAC YM Plus is a powerful new weapon against spoilage, to help you ensure production of longer-lasting, fresher-tasting fermented dairy products.
By controlling a wider range of difficult fungal contaminants, in particular spoilage yeast isolated from fermented dairy products, HOLDBAC YM Plus is designed to meet the specific needs of dairy manufacturers who, despite the challenges of cold-chain logistics, cannot afford to risk their brand image to product failure. What’s more, like many other cultures in the DuPont™ Danisco range, it presents clean label credentials which are at the forefront of consumers’ minds.
A unique blend of selected and patented strains of Propionibacterium and Lactobacillus creates a broader inhibition spectrum. This contributes to increased effectiveness in preventing spoilage from yeast and mold growth, and promotes longer-lasting, fresher-tasting fermented dairy products.
As there is no change to the manufacturing process, yours will remain as simple and efficient as it is today, the cultures can simply be added to the milk together with your starter culture. They can be deployed across a wide range of fermented dairy products such as yoghurt, quark, tvarog, white cheeses and sour cream.
Some of the many benefits include:
• Establishing more effective yeast and mold control, and maintaining product quality throughout shelf life, gives you the opportunity to expand your trading area further from your manufacture facility.
• So HOLDBAC YM Plus could enable you to cost-effectively acquire new customers, while delivering improved product quality to existing customers.
DuPont has over 15 years of innovation and expertise in protective cultures for yeast and mold control in fermented dairy applications. DuPont Danisco is the brand for a range of products that help provide enhanced bioprotection, an improved nutritional profile, and better taste and texture with greater cost efficiency and lower environmental impact, meeting the needs of manufacturers of food and beverages, dietary supplements and pet food. Through the work of the global network of food scientists and technologists in DuPont, the Danisco range is supported by a uniquely broad spectrum of know-how across applications and processing.
