Key Findings
- The study was conducted to enhance the nutritional and functional properties of Ras cheese, a popular Egyptian hard cheese, by incorporating microencapsulated nanoemulsions of allspice berry extract
- The allspice extract, in both its cured and nanoemulsion forms, showed significant antimicrobial effects against various microorganisms
- Cheese supplemented with 1% microcapsules of allspice extract received the highest scores for flavor, body, and texture, with a high acceptance point of 93.62
