Kazak cheese is a traditional dairy product fermented by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in Xinjiang. To investigate the LAB in Kazak cheese and their contributions to cheese fermentation, four representative LAB, B8, B6, B14, and B10, were isolated from Kazak cheese and subsequently used to ferment cheeses, which were named StC, LhC, WcC, and LrC, respectively. The result showed that most of the physical and chemical indicators had no significant difference, except for moisture and fat. B14 was beneficial to the production of amino acids, whereas B8 promoted the formation of organic acids and contributed to formation ideal texture property. Furthermore, the four cheeses all possessed a strong fruity aroma, with brandy, sweet, herbaceous, pungent, and fatty aromas being the most prominent in WcC. This is because B6 produced a high concentration of hexanal, nonanal, octanal, 3-methylbutanoic acid, ethyl acetate, ethyl butanoate, isoamyl acetate, and ethyl hexanoate in LhC. Research on the fermentation mechanism of LAB in cheese will provide a theoretical basis for the quality control and industrial production of Kazak cheese.

Staphylococcus aureus is a common pathogen found in cheese whose Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) are the main pathogenic factors that cause food poisoning. The objective of this study was to construct two models to evaluate the safety of Kazak cheese products in terms of composition, changes in S. aureus inoculation amount, Aw, fermentation temperature during processing, and growth of S.

Mixed fermentation improves the flavor quality of food. Untargeted metabolomics were used to evaluate the impact of mixed fermentation and single-strain fermentation on the volatile and non-volatile compound profiles of Kazak cheese. SMN-LBK and SMN-S7-LBK were used to make mixed-fermentation cheese (M), while SMN-LBK was applied in single-strain-fermentation cheese (S).

To investigate the effect of yeasts on Kazak cheese quality and flavor, three isolated yeasts ( A2, A11, and A19) were used to ferment cheeses and designated as StC, LhC, and WcC, respectively. The cheese fermented with a commercial lactic acid starter without adding yeast was used as control named LrC. The results showed that the texture of cheese added with yeasts were more brittle.

Kazak artisanal cheese is one of the famous fermented food in Uighur Autonomy Region of Xinjiang, China. However, the microbial ecology in Kazak artisanal cheeses across different regions is unclear. In this study, we determined the microbial community composition through amplicon sequencing and measured the flavor profile of 10 cheese samples from different regions of Xinjiang.
