Which bacterium helps in the setting of curd?

  • A.Rhizobium
  • B.Lactobacillus
  • C.Vibrio cholerae
  • D.Bacillus

Answer: B

Correct answer: Lactobacillus

Lactobacillus ferments the lactose in milk to lactic acid. The acid lowers the pH until the milk protein casein coagulates, which is what sets the curd - and the acid also preserves it, by excluding other organisms.
