*Means in the same column with different letters are significantly different (p<0.05). ** Y= Yoghurt cultures (S. thermophilus and L. delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus); B_l = B. animalis spp. lactis, B_b = B. bifidum; 40/45 = Incubation temperature; 4.5/= Final pH; H =Heat treatment after fermentation.
*** M-pH-DR = mean pH drop rate, M-A-IR = mean acidity increase rate, M-RP-IR= mean redox potential increase rate.
