Fermentation was allowed under room temperature for 24 hours. The characteristics observed were color values, viscosity, pH, water holding capacity (WHC), syneresis, and microstructure.

For this purpose, raw bovine colostrum is freeze-dried • Kefir and added to yogurt and kefir on 8% and 16% (w/w; colostrum/product) dilutions. • Lactic acid bacteria The results showed that, effect of colostrum on total mesophilic aerobic bacteria counts of yogurt and kefir are negligible. Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus counts were 0.26-0.29 log CFU/g and 0.38-0.67 log CFU/g higher in colostrum added yogurt samples, respectively. In kefir, lactic streptococci and lactobacilli counts were higher than that of yogurt. However, they weren’t affected from colostrum addition, statistically. This study showed that, colostrum, which contains antimicrobial substances (immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, lactoperoxidase, lysozyme and cytokines), don’t have an adverse effect on specific microbial floras of fermented dairy products such as yogurt and kefir. As a result, colostrum can be added to yogurt and kefir to increase their functional properties. ABBREVIATIONS LAB: Lactic Acid Bacteria; CFU: Colony-Forming Unit microorganisms. Lysozyme is a potent antimicrobial enzyme but, INTRODUCTION in contrast to human milk, the concentration in bovine milk and colostrum is probably too low to significantly contribute to the overall bacteriostatic and bactericidal activity [3].

This study was intended to investigate microbiological and chemical properties of the kefir prepared of Bali Cattle milk and Indonesian kefir grains after 24, 48 and 72 hours incubation periods. A completely randomized design, with 3 treatments, and 9 replicates were undertaken. Kefir samples were taken at the end of incubation period for determination of total lactic acid bacterial and yeast counts, pH, titratable acidity, lactose percentage and protein content. The result of this research showed that the total lactic acid bacterial counts were 10 8 – 10 9 cfu/ml, while yeast counts were ranging from 10 5 – 10 6 cfu/ml, no coliform and Escherichia coli were detected in any kefir samples in this research. Identification of the lactic acid bacteria and yeast revealed that the Lactobacillus paracasei ssp. paracasei 1 was the predominant species found in the kefir samples, followed by Lactobacillus brevis and the yeast Candida famata .
