    In the study, some physicochemical, viscosity, rheological properties, benzoic and sorbic acid contents of a total of 96 yoghurt samples (consisting of homemade, local and national) collected from different provinces of Turkey were investigated. It was determined that national yoghurt samples had the highest average dry matter (13.8%) and the lowest syneresis values (35.8%). Homemade yoghurts had the lowest average viscosity (at 20 rpm, 4079 cP; 50 rpm, 2142 cP), consistency coefficient values (44.4). It was determined that the flow behavior index values of all yoghurt samples were between 0 and 1 and showed pseudoplastic behavior. It was found that the national commercial yoghurt samples were higher than the homemade and regional samples in terms of dry matter, syneresis, viscosity and consistency coefficient. Although the mean benzoic acid values were detected between 5.43 and 31.9 mg kg(-1), sorbic acid was found in only one sample (local brand yoghurt sample).

    In the present study, four different ice creams were produced using cow, buffalo, goat, and sheep milk. The physicochemical, sensory properties and aroma profile analyzes of ice creams were carried out and the differences were evaluated. Dry matter rates of cow ice cream (CIC), goat ice cream (GIC), sheep ice cream (SIC) and buffalo ice cream (BIC) ranged from 27.96% to 30.51% and SIC had the highest content of dry matter (30.51%). Ash values of ice creams were determined between 0.61% and 0.75%. Titra-table acidity values varied between 0.11% and 0.18%. pH values of ice creams ranged from 6.49 to 7.04. Fat values of ice creams were determined between 4.05 (g/100g) and 5.10 (g/100g). The lowest overrun value (20.61%) was determined in SIC. The highest first dripping time (1980 s) and complete melting time (5970 s) were found in GIC. A total of 41 aroma compounds were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and the BIC was the most aromatic product containing 36 aroma compounds. After the BIC, 15, 13 and 8 aroma compounds were detected in CIC, GIC and SIC, respectively. Additionally, aroma compounds 2-hexanone, 2-heptanone, limonene, 2-nonanone, 2-undecanone, 2-tridecanone, 2-pentadecanone were detected in all ice cream types. To evaluate the correlations between the aroma compounds, the principal component analysis (PCA) method was applied to ice cream samples and a strong positive relation was detected between CIC and GIC. In terms of sensory analysis, general acceptability properties were not statistically different (p>0.05) between all ice creams. SIC had the lowest flavor score and CIC had the highest one as sensory property.

    The goal of this study was to determine some physicochemical and microbiological properties of Erzurum butter. Random samples (n = 30) were collected from different retail markets throughout Erzurum province. The pH, acidity, and melting point values of samples were 3.88, 0.47%, and 30.03 degrees C, respectively. The salt, fat, and moisture values of some samples (sample no 1, 14, and 18) were not harmony with Turkish Food Codex. The highest and lowest peroxide, iodine, saponification, Reichert-Meissl (RM), and Polenske values were found to be in the range of 0-0.51 mEqO2/kg, 22.97-38.64, 195.45-228.54, 17.08-30.-56, and 0.72-1.80, respectively. The refractive index value (RI) was changed from 1.4591 to 1.4620. Total coliforms, aerobic mesophilic bacteria (TAMB), lactic acid bacteria (cultured in MRS and M17), and mould and yeasts mean counts were 1.07 log CFU g-1, 6.79 log CFU g-1, 6.45 log CFU g-1, 6.76 log CFU g-1, and 5.33 log CFU g-1, respectively. There were high differences in physicochemical and microbiological properties of butter might be attributed to a non-standard production process as well as non-standard raw material. In sum, the sanitation and storage conditions should be improved from production to consumption to improve the butter quality.
