Description
Summary:•Prior milk processing affects proteolysis during cheese ripening.•Sonication, microwaves and HPP of milk increased bioactive compounds in cheese.•Antihypertensive properties of cheese can be improved by milk pre-processing. Dairy processing provides acceptable safety and shelf-life to final products, and improves their bioactivity. The present study evaluated the potential of different milk processing techniques to improve the antioxidant and angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity of Cheddar cheese, during ripening. Cheese was made from milk subjected to different pre-treatments (C = untreated control, US-1 = ultrasonication, specific energy = 23 J/g, 20 kHz frequency; US-2 = Ultrasonication specific energy = 41 J/g, 20 kHz; HPP = high-pressure processing, 400 MPa for 15 min, at temperature  MW > C. These findings demonstrate the possibility of using ultrasound, microwaves or high-pressure processing as pre-treatments to improve the nutritional attributes of cheese.
