Popis: Fiore Sardo is a cheese manufactured on farms in Sardinia from raw ewe’s milk, with Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of introducing a whey starter culture and specific mechanised cutting operations (innovative) vs traditional manufacture on the microbiological composition of the cheese, as assessed by conventional and molecular (PCR-Culture Tecnique) methods. Five batches were manufactured by innovative and traditional methods and there was no significant difference between the cheeses.
