The
use of all maturity degrees of cheese tested (1e16 weeks) led to
production of homogeneous processed cheeses. This reveals the
ability of carrageenan-protein “complexes” to stabilise fat and
water in the caseinmatrix,which is not dependent on the maturity
degree of cheese. This significant discovery is important for potential
manufacturers because in practice, cheese of different
maturity degree of the cheese is processed (Guinee, 2003; Guinee
et al., 2004).
