| Abstract | Susu kambing adalah salah satu sumber protein hewani yang berpotensi untuk dikembangkan. Keunggulan susu karnbing antara lain kadar laktosa rendah, ukuran globula lemak yang kecil, kadar MCFA (Medium Chain Fatty Acid) dan kadar nukleotida yang tinggi. Susu kambing juga merupakan sumber isolat bakteri asam laktat (BAL) yang bermanfaat bagi kesehatan. Penelitian ini telah berhasil mengisolasi BAL probiotik Lactobacillus rhamnosus dan Lactobacillus plantarum I selanjutnya digunakan untuk mengbasilkan keju fungsional. Penelitian dikerjakan dalam tiga tahapan, yaitu : (1) pemeliharaan dan persiapan kultur BAL, (2) Pembuatan keju dan uji stabilitas BAL, (3) analisis organoleptik dan proksimat keju. Keju lunak probiotik dengan isolat probiotik L. rhamnosus dan L. plantarum l mempunyai stabilitas BAL selama 4 minggu penyimpanan dengan jumlah BAL 10ð log CFU/g. Keju yang dihasilkan mempunyai aroma yang sama dcngan keju kambing komersial, tetapi berbeda tekstur dan rasa (P<0,05) terhadap keju kambing komersial. Tekstur keju lunak probiotik mernpunyai kisaran rataan kekerasan 0,115-0,452 N. Kekerasan tekstur secara statistik berbeda nyata (P<O,05) untuk keju lunak dengan penggunaan BAL probiotik berbeda. Komposisi kimia keju probiotik memiliki kadar air 56,38-60,58%; kadar protein 13,57-17,40%; lemak 17,66-20,42%; dan kadar abu 2,69-3,19%.àStability Of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) In Probiotic Cheese From Goat MilkGoat milk has low content of lactose, high MCFA, protein and nucleotides. in addition, goat milk is the natural source of lactic acid bacteria that have beneficial effect to the health. This research successfully isolated Lactobacillus rhamnosus and L. plantarum I and then applied those bacteria to cheese made from goat milk. This study was done in three stages, i. e. (1) Preparation of lactic acid bacteria culture, (2) probiotic cheese making and stability testing, (3) chemical analysis and sensory test of the probiotic cheese. LAB in isolate probiotic soft cheese with L. rhamnosus and L. plantarum I was viable for 4 weeks of storage with the number of LAB 10ð log CFU/g. The flavor of the resulting cheese was similar to that of commercial goat cheese, but its texture and taste were different (P<0.05) from commercial goat cheese. The hardness of probiotic soft cheese ranged from 0.115 to 0.452 N and the value were significantly different (P<0.05) for soft cheese incomporated different probiotic LAB. The chemical composition of probiotic cheese was moisture 56.38-60.58%; protein 13.57-17.40%, fat 17.66-20.42% and ash 2.69-3.19%. |
