FUNCTIONAL BIOPRODUCT "FucoSTEM" - EVALUATION OF THE PRODUCT ON ORGANOLEPTIC, PHYSICOCHEMICAL, BIOCHEMICAL AND MICROBIOLOGICAL INDICATORS

Abstract

The authors present the results of organoleptic, physicochemical, biochemical and microbiological studies of a new lyophilized functional bioproduct "FucoSTEM". The product is a nutritious concentrate developed on the basis of buffalo colostrum. The inclusion in the composition of fruit (chokeberry) leads to an increase in the content of total phenolic substances, anthocyanins and high antioxidant activity of the product. The obtained results prove that the new product "FucoSTEM" has a balanced composition, preserved quality characteristics, high biological and energy value. It is microbiologically pure and safe to use. These features define it as suitable for use by a wide range of users.
