Abstract

The main aim of this study was to improve the viability of probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium spp.) in fermented frozen dairy desserts. In order to improve the viability of probiotic bacteria, initial studies were undertaken to determine the existing levels of probiotic bacteria present in fermented frozen dairy desserts.
