The physiological and technological parameters important to the development of Direct Vat Set culture of Lactobacillus delbrueckii UFV H2b20 cultivated in Minas Frescal cheese whey were studied. Greater fermentative activity on cheese whey was observed at 40ºC and therefore all bacterial growth experiments were performed at this temperature. Heat shock, 50ºC for 30 minutes, or acid stress, cheese whey with pH 3.5 for 30 minutes, did not affect growth of L. delbrueckii UFV H2b20 on cheese whey. The survival of heat or acid pre-treated cells was assessed after dehydration by lyophilization and spray-drying. Cell survival to either dehydration processes was not affected by acid pre-treatment, whereas heat shock had a deleterious effect on survival. The addition of protective substances (6% mannitol, 1,25% sorbitol, 1,25% monosodium glutamate and mixture of 6% sucrose and 4% trehalose) to cheese whey in which the cells were submitted to lyophilization did not improve cell survival to dehydratation and storage at -80ºC for two months. Cell survival was greater when lyophilization was performed on cheese whey alone. Acid pre-treated cells on cheese whey, pH 3.5 adjusted with HCl, without any further addition, retained higher viable counts after lyophilization and subsequent -80ºC storage. Cell activity recovery in 10% reconstituted skimmed milk was not affected by either heat shock or acid pre-treatment when cells were lyophilized in cheese whey with no additional substances. Spray-dried cultures submitted to acid stress demonstrate recovery comparable to active cells which were not subjected to any condition that could result in cell injury. Those cultures exhibit a high activity even after two months storage at - 20ºC. The hereby presented results demonstrate that the probiotic culture produced in stabilized Minas Frescal cheese whey, pre-treated at pH 3.5, and spray-dried have desirable viability and activity characteristics, and its use can be recommended for the elaboration of milk fermented products containing L. delbrueckii UFV H2b20 cells.
