“…Ultrafiltered (UF) white cheese is manufactured by using ultrafiltered and pasteurized cow milk coagulated by action of mesophilic starter culture, commercial recombinant chymosin (Rhizomucor miehei) and 3 % of salt (Soltani et al, 2019). Even though there are several studies about the evaluation of physico-chemical, microstructural, ripening and sensory properties of UF white cheese (Hesari et al, 2006;Karami et al, 2009;Nazari et al, 2020;Yousefi et al, 2020;Heidarvand et al, 2021;Habibi et al, 2022), to the best of our knowledge, no study has been conducted so far about the effect of added salt concentration on the texture profile and mineral contents of this type of cheese. The main purpose of this study was to determine the influence of using different concentrations of salt on chemical and textural properties of ultrafiltered white cheese during 90 days of ripening at 9±1 ºC.…”
