Acetate, butyrate, and propionate exhibited an increasing trend from the beginning of every stage to the end of the same stage, but the gradient or the rate of production so to speak of acetate and propionate were significantly diminished compared to their respective times at the end of every stage (170 mM (48 h) > 134 mM (96 h) > 121 mM (144 h); 76 mM (48 h) > 42 mM (96 h) > 23 mM (144 h), whereas for butyrate, the opposite was observed, (69 mM (48 h) < 117 mM (96 h) < 176 mM (144 h).
During ripening, it was observed that the Listeria population had a decreasing trend at all samples (the p -values for the 1st, 5th, 36th, 50th, and 60th days were found to be less than 0.05, however, for the 8th, 15th, and 22nd days after production, the p-values were p ≥ 0.05), but this decrease was more intense at Feta trial 12 inoculated with both acid and non-acid adapted Listeria strains at both batches ( Table 2 ).
