Global Dairy Cultures Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Dairy cultures are live microorganisms, typically lactic acid bacteria, used in the dairy industry to ferment milk and transform it into various dairy products. These cultures play a vital role in the production of yogurt, cheese, butter, buttermilk, sour cream, and other fermented dairy foods. During fermentation, the dairy cultures convert lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid, which lowers the pH of the milk and leads to the coagulation of proteins, giving the dairy product its characteristic texture, flavor, and aroma. Different strains of lactic acid bacteria are used to create specific dairy products, each contributing unique characteristics and enhancing the product＇s quality. Dairy cultures not only aid in the preservation of dairy products but also provide health benefits, as they can produce probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria that promote gut health and digestion. The controlled use of dairy cultures ensures the consistency and safety of dairy products and plays a fundamental role in the diversity and appeal of fermented dairy foods enjoyed by people worldwide.
