The uses of different containers influenced (P 0.01) acidity, pH, dry matter, fat contents and water soluble nitrogen. Degradation of s1- and -casein were higher in pieced cheeses in pot (P1F2). Also, breakdown products of casein were higher in P1F2 cheeses compared to others. The amounts of s1- and -caseins of all treatments decreased during ripening, while the amounts of s1-I casein and breakdown products increased. The acceptability of cheeses in block form was higher.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOtlu (Herby) CheesePackaging MaterialFilling MethodRipeningArticle123Q3Q2496511WOS:000265653100005
