dc.description.abstractCheese is a biologically active food product, characterised by its colour, texture, and taste. Due to its rich matrix of fats and proteins, as well as the fact that the cheese’s surface acts as its own packaging, the cheese becomes more susceptible to contamination by microorganisms during the ripening process, particularly bacteria and fungi. The ripening of cheese involves several biochemical reactions, with the proteolytic activity of the cheese microbiota being particularly significant. Proteolysis results in the presence of free amino acids, which are precursors to various metabolic mechanisms that can cause discolouration (blue, pink, and brown) on the cheese rind. Surface defects in cheese have been documented in the literature for many years. Sporadic inconsistencies in cheese appearance can lead to product degradation and economic losses for producers. Over the past few decades, various defects have been reported in different types of cheese worldwide. This issue also presents opportunities for innovation and development in edible and bioactive coatings to prevent the appearance of colour defects. Therefore, this review provides a comprehensive analysis of cheese colour globally, identifying defects caused by microorganisms. It also explores strategies and innovation opportunities in the cheese industry to enhance the value of the final product.pt_PT
