List of abbreviations……………………………………………………………… 171 II SUMMARY The current Ph.D. work is divided into four main parts. In the first one, the problematic of volatile compound preconcentration is dealt with to extend the application range of electronic noses (ENs). A review article highlights the advantages of portable equipments such as Solid Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME) and Solid Phase Dynamic Extraction (SPDE). Both showed comparable efficiencies when applied to the SMart Nose equipment, though the second one was less subject to ageing effects. Various canned processed cheese types stored deep frozen were tested for several years as control materials for gas chromatography (long term stability of volatile compounds in cheese-like matrices). These processed cheeses were then used to illustrate the data transferability between two ENs of same type, condition necessary to build usable databases for the daily practice. In the second part of the work, a screening of a great number of analytical methods was carried out to evaluate their potential for the authentication of the geographic origin of Emmental cheese. Twenty Emmental samples from six European regions were investigated on chemical, biochemical, microbiological, physical and sensory parameters. The most promising ones retained for the follow-up of the project were, volatile short-chain acids, chloride, pH-value, total nitrogen, 12%-TCA soluble nitrogen, water soluble nitrogen, copper, sodium, magnesium, zinc, enterococci, obligate heterofermentative Lactobacilli, Lb helveticus, L/D-lactate, succinate, pyruvate, L-leucine-aminopeptidase, δ2H, δ13C, δ15N and δ34S isotope ratios. In the third part, the selected parameters were measured in 110 winter and 73 summer Emmental cheese samples collected in seven European regions, i.e. Switzerland, France Savoie, France Bretagne, France East-Central, South Germany, Austria and Finland. The analytical data was then processed using multivariate statistical analysis leading to pattern recognition and classification according to the geographic origin of the cheeses. Discriminant analysis (DA) and artificial neural networks delivered similar results. DA made it possible a reduction of the number of factors thanks to stepwise backward elimination. In a model including only eleven factors, 95% correct classification in the seven regions was achieved in the Jackknifed validation. Five Swiss Emmental samples out of 70 were misclassified. To improve the classification of the latters, a model with a pairwise approach (Switzerland vs a single foreign region at a time) was proposed. This procedure made it possible to recognise all Swiss samples correctly using fifteen parameters. In the fourth and last part, a targeted screening was applied to two other cheese types, i.e. Raclette and Fontina cheeses. Raclette Suisse® and French Raclette cheese could be easily discriminated using the calcium content and the four stable isotope ratios δ2H, δ13C, δ15N and δ34S. Fontina PDO is a raw milk cheese. Consequently its alkaline phosphatase content was much higher than in the Fontal cheeses, which are industrial imitations manufactured with pasteurised milk. The last chapter is a guide line dedicated to the Swiss

  • SWISS Cheese Pavilion at Anuga - Media Release (Trend Topics)
    SWISS Cheese Pavilion at Anuga - Media Release (Trend Topics) SWISS Cheese Pavilion - Innovation based on tradition At the SWISS Cheese Pavilion (Hall 10.1/ Booth B-021 - D-040), which is organized by Switzerland Cheese Marketing AG in conjunction with Switzerland Global Enterprise, the Swiss dairy industry will be showcasing traditional products of the traditional Swiss export industry over an area of some 900 m2. The high level of Swiss quality awareness and the wealth of practical knowledge as regards processing are equally important for commercial and industrial companies. At the SWISS Cheese Pavilion, three major companies – Emmi Schweiz AG, Mifroma SA and Züger AG – will be showcasing their diverse range of products and services. Eight companies will be presenting their quality product ranges at the joint stand: Alp Senn AG, Bodensee Käse AG, Cremo SA – von Mühlenen, Geska AG, InterCheese AG, Lustenberger & Dürst SA, Margot Fromage SA and the Swiss Association of Soft and Semi-hard Cheese Producers (SGWH). The Swiss cheese classics Appenzeller, Emmental, Gruyère and Tête de Moine will also be represented at the venue and of course offered up for tasting by the Anuga experts. Züger Frischkäse AG - A family business with a global clientèle The family firm Züger Frischkäse AG has been exporting more than 50% of its products to Europe and overseas for many years now. IQF (Individual Quick Frozen) products are primarily offered for system catering outside Europe. “Thanks to their long shelf-life, they can easily be transported by ship, which is cheaper than doing so by plane,” says Christoph Scherrer, sales manager at Züger Frischkäse AG.
