Conventional full-fat (FF) cheeses (45% fat, dry basis (db)) and RF cheeses (20\u201330% fat, db) were compared to RF cheeses produced with the incorporation of 5% concentrated whey (RF + CW), buttermilk (RF + CB) or sheep second cheese whey (RF + CS). Protein-to-fat ratios were lower than 1 in the FF cheeses, while RF cheeses ranged from 1.8 to 2.8. The tested by-products performed differently when added to the milk used for cheese production. The FF cheese showed a more pronounced yellow colour after 60 and 90 days of ripening, indicating that fat plays an important role regarding this parameter. As far as the texture parameters are concerned, after 60 days of ripening, RF cheeses with buttermilk presented similar results to FF cheeses for hardness (5.0\u20137.5 N) and chewiness (ca. 400). These were lower than the ones recorded for RF cheeses with added UF concentrated whey (RF + CW) and second cheese whey (RF + CS), which presented lower adhesiveness values. RF cheeses with 5% incorporation of buttermilk concentrated by UF presented the best results concerning both texture and sensory evaluation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/foods9081020","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,30]],"date-time":"2020-07-30T03:36:38Z","timestamp":1596080198000},"page":"1020","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Dairy by-Products Concentrated by Ultrafiltration Used as Ingredients in the Production of Reduced Fat Washed Curd Cheese"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Ana Raquel","family":"Borges","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, College of Agriculture, Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Arona Figueiroa","family":"Pires","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, College of Agriculture, Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Natal\u00ed Garcia","family":"Marnotes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, College of Agriculture, Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"given":"David Gama","family":"Gomes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, College of Agriculture, Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9214-0614","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marta Fernandes","family":"Henriques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, College of Agriculture, Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"},{"name":"Research Centre for Natural Resources, Environment and Society (CERNAS), Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1705-2301","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carlos Dias","family":"Pereira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, College of Agriculture, Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"},{"name":"Research Centre for Natural Resources, Environment and Society (CERNAS), Bencanta, 3045-601 Coimbra, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"4756","DOI":"10.3168\/jds.2009-2156","article-title":"The effect of aging on low-fat, reduced-fat, and full-fat Cheddar cheese texture","volume":"92","author":"Rogers","year":"2009","journal-title":"J.
