Abstract
The investigation was performed to evaluate the influence of royal jelly (RJ) and/or bee pollen grains (BPG) on texture and
microstructure profile of probiotic yoghurt made from mixed (1:1) standardized cow and buffalo milks (~3% fat). The probiotic
bacteria used Lb. gasseri, Lb. rhamnosus and Bif. angulatum with the normal yoghurt starter (Lb. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus
and Str. thermophilus). The yoghurts were cooled and stored for 21 days and analyzed for their textural characteristics, syneresis
and microstructure. The yoghurt samples included RJ and/or BPG was appeared more stable during cold storage up on 21 days. No significant differences (P>0.05) were recorded in springiness and cohesiveness between sample incorporated RJ and/or BPG
and control sample. However, the syneresis was significantly (P
