Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of camel milk fermentation technology, specifically to a compound microbial agent for camel milk fermentation and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Camel milk is the milk produced by the Bactrian camel, an animal belonging to the camel family. It is rich in vitamin C and also contains a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, iron, and vitamin B, all essential for the human body. It is warm in nature, sweet and cold in taste, and non-toxic. It is believed to have the effects of tonifying the middle energizer, replenishing qi, and strengthening muscles and bones. It can be consumed internally as a hot stew. Traditional fermented camel milk, also known as naturally fermented sour camel milk, is a common traditional drink / food for pastoral residents and has certain dietary and medicinal value. The market potential for camel milk products is significant, with high development and utilization value. However, due to the large quality differences and short shelf life of naturally fermented sour camel milk from different regions, it cannot be circulated in long-distance markets.
[0003] Fermented camel milk sold on the market is produced through either natural fermentation or by using different strains of lactic acid bacteria to mimic the fermentation process of cow and sheep milk. The former, a traditional process, involves sterilizing fresh camel milk and then fermenting it using naturally passaged bacteria. Its advantages include a rich variety of bacteria, including abundant natural lactic acid bacteria and yeasts, resulting in diverse flavors and high nutritional value. However, its disadvantages include inconsistent quality and hygiene due to varying conditions and practices among farmers, leading to potential quality risks. The latter, using commercially available bacteria to mimic the fermentation process of cow milk, produces a less desirable flavor compared to naturally fermented milk. It often has a strong camel odor, is prone to rancidity, and is less acceptable to consumers.
[0004] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention
