La fermentation du lait conduisant à la formation d'acides organiques, notamment d'acide lactique entraîne une acidification du lait. Ces laits fermentés peuvent résulter d'ensemencements spontanés à température ambiante, ou d'ensemencements par une flore et à une température contrôlées. [...] Ces produits laitiers fermentés ajoutent leurs propriétés propres aux qualités nutritionnelles du lait utilisé. En particulier, l'acidification constitue du point de vue hygiénique un atout majeur. En effet, elle prévient la croissance de la plupart des germes pathogènes et assure, par des moyens qui peuvent être très simples, la conservation du lait. 1, record 5, French, - produit%20laitier%20ferment%C3%A9
