The high nutritional value of whey makes it an interesting substrate for the development of fermented foods. The aim of this work was to evaluate the growth and proteolytic activity of sixty-four strains of lactic acid bacteria in whey to further formulate a starter culture for the development of fermented whey-based beverages. Fermentations were performed at 37°C for 24 h in 10 and 16% (w/v) reconstituted whey powder. Cultivable populations, pH, and proteolytic activity (o-phthaldialdehyde test) were determined at 6 and 24 h incubation. Hydrolysis of whey proteins was analysed by Tricine SDS-PAGE. A principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to evaluate the behaviour of strains. Forty-six percent of the strains grew between 1 and 2 Δlog CFU/ml while 19% grew less than 0·9 Δlog CFU/ml in both reconstituted whey solutions. Regarding the proteolytic activity, most of the lactobacilli released amino acids and small peptides during the first 6 h incubation while streptococci consumed the amino acids initially present in whey to sustain growth. Whey proteins were degraded by the studied strains although to different extents. Special attention was paid to the main allergenic whey protein, β-lactoglobulin, which was degraded the most byLactobacillus acidophilusCRL 636 andLb. delbrueckiisubsp.bulgaricusCRL 656. The strain variability observed and the PCA applied in this study allowed selecting appropriate strains able to improve the nutritional characteristics (through amino group release and protein degradation) and storage (decrease in pH) of whey.

The effects of previously fermented juice (PFJ) prepared from alfalfa and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculants on the dynamic changes of nutritive components in ensiled alfalfa after various ensiling periods were investigated by using the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System. The third-cut alfalfa was harvested at the budding stage, exposed to sunlight, weighed occasionally to estimate the dry matter (DM) content until the actual DM finally obtained was 347.8 g/kg fresh weight, and then chopped to 1–2-cm lengths. Chopped forages were treated with (1) distilled water (control), (2) alfalfa PFJ or (3) LAB at 1 mL/50 g fresh weight. The application amounts of PFJ and LAB to the fresh forage were 8.73 log (colony-forming units/mL) and 7.32 log (colony-forming units/mL) respectively. All silages were prepared in mini-silos of 100-mL polypropylene centrifuge tubes and kept in an incubator at 30°C, and triplicate silos from each treatment were opened after 1, 3, 7, 14 and 35 days of ensiling. Results suggested that silage treated with LAB and PFJ was of better quality than was the control silage, as evidenced by lower volatile fatty acid concentrations, as well as higher lactic acid, sugar, starch, soluble fibre and digestible natural detergent fibre production at various ensiling periods (P < 0.05), and a lower protein degradation as suggested by the low non-protein nitrogen production (P < 0.05). The effect of PFJ on alfalfa fermentation quality and protein degradation was greater than that of LAB, as evidenced by the lower pH value and volatile fatty acid content and the higher concentrations of lactic acid (P < 0.05). In addition, the cost of PFJ for 1 tonne of alfalfa silage is ~1/7–1/5 of that of LAB. In conclusion, adding PFJ to alfalfa forages before preservation as silage is a cost-effective way to improve the silage formation quality; in addition, its effect as a fermentation stimulant may be comparable to, or even better than, that of LAB inoculants at various ensiling periods.

Protease hidrolyzed protein in flour in order to more digest by human ulcer. Lactobacillus plantarum B110 and Lactobacillus satsumensis are indigenous lactic acid bacteria that produce protease. The objective of this research is to characterization of protease crude extract from indigenous lactic acid bacteria and the protein degradation capacity in local tuber and cereal paste flour. Tuber and cereal flour used were purple sweet potato (Dioscorea alata), cassava (Manihot esculenta), rice (Oryza sativa), corn (Zea mays) and wheat (Triticum) as comparison. Proteaseactivity was tested by Horikoshi method (1971) and protein degradation was by formol titration. Research results showed that optimum activities and stabilities of Lactobacillus plantarum B110 were at pH: 7.5, 45oC and pH:5.0-8.0, 35-50oC, while that L. satsumensis EN 38-32 were at pH: 7.0, 40oC and pH:6.0-8.0, 20-45oC. Increases in protein degradation capacity of the paste flour additional proteases crude extract from L. plantarum B110 were 0.0838% (purple sweat potato), 1.3299% (cassava), 0.5834% (corn), 0.7499% (rice) and 1.5551% (wheat as comparison); while that L. satsumensis EN 38-32 were 0.20% (purple sweet potato), 0.32% (cassava), 0.87% (corn), 1.17% (rice). Based on increases in protein degradation capacity, protease crude extract from L. plantarum B110 and L. satsumensis EN 38- 32 were sequently better to hidrolyze protein of cassava and rice paste flour than thatother tuber and cereal.

In the experiment, forage (dry matter 216.3 g.kg-1) from the 1st cut of alfalfa (Medicago, sativa L.) cv, Radius, mown at the early flowering stage, was ensiled. Alfalfa was ensiled without inoculants; with lactic acid bacteria and enzyme inoculants; with rolled barley; or with rolled barley and lactic acid bacteria and enzyme inoculants. Rolled barley was added in amounts of 50,100, 150 and 200 g.kg-1 of alfalfa forage, The bacterial acid enzyme inoculants (Bactozym) contained cultures of Lacto bacillus casein, Enterococcus faecium M74 and Pediococcus sp. (a total of 1 5 x 109 CPU in Ig of friable preparation) in the powdered part and the cellulase-hemicellulase complex (25000 n cat. in 1ml) and glucose-oxidase (4000 n cat. in 1ml) in the liquid part. The inoculants was used in a water solution in the amount of 10mg bacterial component and 0,2 ml enzymatic component / kg-1 alfalfa forage. The supplement of only rolled barley to alfalfa forage was found to have no significant effect on improving the processes of proteolysis and deamination in this type of silages, compared to alfalfa silages made with bacterial and enzyme inoculants. Significantly lower crude protein and WSC losses in the fermentation process, increased intensity of lactic acid fermentation, the lack of propionic and butyric acid fermentation, and significantly reduced processes of protein degradation were found in alfalfa-rolled barley silages made with the addition of lactic acid bacteria and enzyme inoculants.
