Investigation of the kefir culture microflora produced from different kefir grains [PDF]
Fermentirani mliječni napici u koje se ubraja i kefir, namirnice su visoke prehrambene i biološke vrijednosti. Kulture za proizvodnju kefira dobivaju se fermentacijom mlijeka pomoću kefirnih zrnaca. Mikroflora kefirnih zrnaca je vrlo složena i promjenjivog sastava, a sadržava više vrsta bakterija i kvasaca.

Potential Use of Hazelnut Beverage in Water Kefir Fermentation: Effects of Sugar Addition on Physicochemical, Microbiological, Rheological, Bioactive, Volatile, and Allergenic Properties. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study investigated the potential of hazelnut beverage, obtained from hazelnut cake through high‐pressure homogenization (100 MPa), for use in water kefir production. The effects of different sugar concentrations (2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%) on product properties and hazelnut allergenicity were also examined.

Fermentation Time Modulates the Osteoprotective Effects of Milk Kefir in Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporotic Rats. [PDF]
Milk kefir exerts osteoprotective effects in glucocorticoid‐induced osteoporotic rats, particularly when fermented for longer periods, improving mandibular bone quality. Fermentation time modulates its microbiological and bioactive profile, highlighting its potential as a functional food for restoring bone health.
