Evaluation of the Functional and Sensory Properties of Probiotic Whey Cheese with Herbs in Vacuum or Modified Atmosphere Packaging.

Research Background: Some herbs provide functional properties to foods, especially their antibacterial and antioxidant properties. On the other hand, modified atmosphere packaging is being considered as an alternative to vacuum packaging to preserve the functional and sensory properties of foods. Since the shelf life of whey cheese is quite short, different packaging methods such as modified atmosphere packaging are favoured.
