| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study elucidated the effect of temperature variation on the viscoelastic moduli of fully coagulated curds under different pH conditions. The results showed that Rennet curds treated at pH 4.8 exhibited drastic changes in the viscoelasticity at 43°C, above which the degree of fluidity exceeded the degree of rigidity. The effect of fat content in cheese curds on their rheological properties was examined using dynamic shear measurements. Surplus fat addition to milk samples caused two distinct types of changes in the temperature dependence of the viscoelastic moduli of resultant curds. The first was a significant reduction in the moduli over a wide temperature range, which is attributed to the presence of liquefied fat globules within the milk protein network. The second was the excess contribution to the low-temperature moduli owing to the reinforcing effect of solidified fat globules.
