Lactic acid bacteria such as Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus in yogurt maintains the balance of the intestinal microflora by suppressing the growth of harmful bacteria. Dietary fibre and functional compounds in probiotic drinks also have a good effect on health. The modification of low-fat probiotic drinks is a value-added product and can be classified as a healthy drink. Caulerpa racemosa is a Chlorophyceae seaweed with high food fibre and functional compounds, including phenolic and chlorophyll as antioxidants. This study aimed to determine the effect of different lactic acid bacteria on the characteristics of the probiotic drink products by combining C. racemosa with low-fat cow’s milk. C. racemosa and low-fat cow’s milk with a ratio of 3:4 was fermented with Lactobacillus bulgaricus (A), Streptococcus thermophilus (B), and a combination of both (C). The products were analysed for protein and fat content, dietary fibre, total phenolic content, antioxidants activity, total lactic acid bacteria, total acid, pH, and with a sensory test for consumer preference. The addition of the different lactic acid bacteria had effects on the fat, antioxidants, dietary fibre, and total acid contents, while protein and total phenolic contents were not significantly different. The combination of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus produced a probiotic drink with the lowest amount of dietary fibre (1.27%) and total acid (0.64%), with antioxidant activity IC50 of 183.57 ppm and total phenolic content of 0.11 mg GAE/g. The preference test showed that the panellists preferred yogurt fermented with L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus for its aroma, texture, and colour.

Effects of Lactic Acid Bacteria Combination on Characteristic Change of Buffalo Milk Nutrition Determination of physical and chemical characteristics on fermented milk using a mixture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Bifidobacterium sp. has been conducted. Fermentation was carried out for 20 hours at 37ºC in a facultative aerobic condition. Physical characteristics were performed by comparing the physical properties before and after fermentation such as viscosity and texture, including chemical properties such as pH, acidity, protein, fat, and sugar contents. Inoculants of lactic acid bacteria were varied using a combination of lactic acid bacteria mixture. Results showed that the combination of bacteria inoculants used has no significant effect on changes in protein, fat, ash, and water contents. However, the effects on total acid, pH, sugar content, and physical appearance such as viscosity and texture were significant. The combination of L. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus and Bifidobacterium sp. (A6) produced a soft texture appearance and high viscosity. The combination of inoculant bacteria L. bulgaricus with S. thermophilus (A5) produced a texture similar to A6 but with a lower viscosity than A6.Keywords: Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium sp, buffalo milk, fermentation. ABSTRAKPenelitian untuk mengetahui karakteristik fisik dan kimia hasil fermentasi susu kerbau menggunakan campuran Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, dan Bifidobacterium sp telah dilakukan.

The aim of this study was to isolate and identify lactic acid bacteria diversity from dahi/ yoghurt. Curd, also known as commercially prepared yoghurt or homemade Dahi, is formed during the slow lactic fermentation of lactose from milk by thermophilic lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Thirty-five samples of yoghurt and curd were collected from the Biratnagar and isolation and identification of bacteria were done by various microbiological techniques like MRS Agar inoculation, colony characteristics, microscopic and biochemical examination. A total of sixty-six strains of lactobacilli were isolated from curd and identification of strains was done by biochemical and carbohydrate utilization test. Lactobacillus bulgaricus, L. casei, L. fermentum, L. acidophilus, and Streptococcus thermophilus were identified from curd. pH of samples was between 3.0 to 4.0 for homemade dahi; while 4.34 to 4.5 for commercially available yoghurt. The mean colony count of lactic acid bacteria was 1.4x107–4.9x107 cfu/g. 37.9% of samples contained Streptococcus thermophilus, 30.3% had Lactobacillus bulgaricus. Forty-five isolates from 24 industrial yoghurt samples showed 37.5% of the yoghurt contained both Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus followed by 25% samples having S. thermophilus and L. acidophilus. Other species like L. fermentum and L. casei were less common. From 11 homemade dahi samples, 54.5% of curd possessed both S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus; 18.2% curd had both S. thermophilus and L. fermentum. The study concludes that L. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus are prevalent potent lactic acid bacteria. This study provides an account of the diversity of lactic acid bacteria in dahi/ yoghurt which will provide useful information about the variable nature of curd in this region to future researchers.

This study aims to determine the effect of the concentration the addition of lesser yam as prebiotic to total Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB), reducing sugar content, crude fiber, viscosity, and organoleptic properties of yogurt with a combination of three bacteria (Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and Lactobacillus acidophilus). The design of this study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications with variations in the addition of lesser yam tuber, namely T1 with a concentration of 0%, T2 with a concentration of 2%, T3 with a concentration of 4% and T4 with a concentration of 6%. The raw materials used are pasteurized fresh cow's milk, lesser yam tuber flour, and yogurt starter. The results showed that the addition of different lesser yam tuber flour had a significant effect (P &lt;0.05) on total LAB, sugar reduction, crude fiber, viscosity, and organoleptic properties of yogurt. The ideal treatment for the addition of lesser yam tuber flour is the concentration of 2% lesser yam tuber, which produces a total LAB is 9.2 x 109, a sugar reduction is 0.653 mg/mL, crude fiber is 1.3%, 82.25 cPs, and organoleptic properties had sour taste and viscosity is rather thick which the most preferred.<br>

Cultured skimmilks containing Salmonella typhimurium were prepared at 21, 30, or 42 C using different species of lactic acid bacteria (0.25, 1.0, and 5% inoculum) either singly or in combinations. Several commercial cultures also were used. Cultured skimmilks were stored at 11 C and tested at 3-day intervals for numbers of viable salmonellae and lactic acid bacteria and for pH. Survival of S. typhimurium varied from 6 to 9 days and from 3 to 6 days in milks cultured with 0.25% Streptococcus lactis at 21 and 30 C, respectively. Increasing the inoculum to 1% with incubation at 30 C yielded a product no more detrimental to S. typhimurium than when the lower inoculum was used at 30 C. Survival of S. typhimurium always exceeded 9 days when S. cremoris was used to make cultured skimmilks. Products made with commercial mixed cultures composed of S. lactis and S. cremoris allowed S. typhimurium to survive for periods intermediate between the extremes observed when pure cultures were used. Skimmilks cultured with Streptococcus diacetilactis and Leuconostoc citrovorum, even when skimmilks cultured with the latter organism were acidified with citric acid and incubated further, were essentially without effect on survival of S. typhimurium during refrigerated storage. Use of Streptococcus thermophilus (1% culture, 42 C incubation) yielded cultured skimmilks that were most detrimental to survival of salmonellae, whereas skimmilks fermented with Lactobacillus bulgaricus permitted survival of low numbers of salmonellae beyond 9 days. Milks cultured at 42 C with a 5% inoculum of S. thermophilus mixed with L. bulgaricus or Lactobacillus helveticus were free of viable salmonellae before the incubation was complete. Salmonellae grown in skimmilk at 21 C without a lactic culture were more resistant to inactivation during refrigerated storage than was S. typhimurium grown at 30 or 42 C.

In this study, phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities in citrus fruits and their peels were determined, and their stimulatory roles on some lactic acid bacteria were investigated. Phenolic compounds in citrus fruits such as mandarin, lemon, orange and grapefruit were determined either in the juices or in the peel extracts. Total phenolic content was determined in a spectrophotometer at 685 nm using the adapted Folin-Ciocalteu method. Total flavonoid content was measured using LC/MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry). The effects of the fruit juices and peel extracts on the selected lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus delbrueckii NRRL B5448, Lb. casei NRRL B1922, Lb. acidophilus NRRL B4495) were investigated. The tested lactic acid bacteria were significantly affected by chlorogenic acid, hesperidin, naringin and caffeic acid compared to the control samples (P?0.05). Antioxidant properties of fruit samples were also measured using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) method. The phenolics positively affected the metabolism of bacteria, with the stimulatory effects of the assayed samples being influenced by the phenolic profile.

The spontaneous fermentation was carried out on Carica papaya leaf (CPL) in view of its potential improvement on antioxidant functionality and cultivation of lactic acid bacteria. The effect of the spontaneous fermentation on the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of CPL, as well as biodiversity profiling were evaluated in this study. Total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of the fermented CPL were 31.14 mg GAE g-1 and 405.8 mM TE g-1 respectively, higher than the unfermented CPL (5.71 mg GAE/g and 130.5 mM TE g-1) respectively. Microbial community was predominantly lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts, both populated at 104 to 108 CFU/mL during most part of the fermentation. Presumptive Enterobacteriaceae showed up briefly at the onset of the fermentation before disappearing. PCR-DGGE fingerprinting revealed Lactobacillus plantarum (Lb. plantarum) as the sole dominant bacterial species. More diverse yeasts community was detected by PCR-DGGE where succession of Zygosaccharomyces, Saccharomyces, Candida and Aspergillus genera were detected along fermentation time. Spontaneous fermentation successfully enhanced the total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of the CPL. The cultivation of lactic acid bacteria was indicated by the presence of Lb. plantarum, whereas the disappearance of Enterobacteriaceae conferred a safe consumption of the fermented CPL.

Skimmilk was inoculated with Salmonella typltimurium (approximately 103/ml) and with Streptococcus cremoris, Streptococcus lactis, mixtures of S. cremoris and S. lactis, Streptococcus diacetilactis, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, mixtures of S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus, a mixture of L. helveticus and S. thermophilus, and Leuconostoc citrovorum. Inocula of lactic acid bacteria ranged from 0.25 to 5.0% and incubation temperatures from 21 to 42 C. Streptococcus cremoris, S. lactis, and mixtures of the two repressed growth but did not inactivate S. typhimurium during 18 hr of incubation at 21 or 30 C when the lactic inoculum was 0.25%. An increase in inoculum to 1% resulted in inactivation of S. typhimurium at 30 C by some of the mixed cultures. Both S. diacetilactis and L. citrovorum were less inhibitory to S. typhimurium than were S. cremoris or S. lactis. When added at the 1% level, Streptococcus thermophilus was more detrimental to S. typhimurium at 42 C than was L. bulgaricus. Mixtures of these two lactic acid bacteria, when added at levels of 1.0 and 5.0%, caused virtually complete inactivation of S. typhimurium during the interval between 8 and 18 hr of incubation at 42 C.

In this research, shrimp waste was fermented with 3 species of symbiotic lactic acid bacteria, namely Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus. The ingredient changes occurring in the fermentation process were investigated. Results showed that the production of lactic acid in the fermentation process was remarkably improved, with the pH decreasing rapidly to 4.25 within 8 h, the lowest pH reaching 3.22, and the titratable acidity reaching 25.0 mmol/100ml. The improved acidic environment promoted the removal of calcium and protein, with 91.3% calcium, 97.7% protein and 32.3% carotenoid removed from shrimp waste after 168 h fermentation. The putrefaction was effectively prevented and the TVBN level was low throughout the whole process. Glucose was consumed rapidly in the earlier phase of the fermentation; about 69.4% glucose was consumed in the initial 24 h. The consumption of glucose was in well accordance with the growth of lactic acid bacteria, the removal of calcium and the increasing of titratable acidity. The amino nitrogen content kept increasing within 48 h, thereafter it came to decrease. 88.4% of peptides in the hydrolysate ranged between 1000 ~ 10000 Da, 10.2% smaller than 1000 Da, and 3.44% larger than 10000 Da.

This study, which covers three years of storage. analyzes the application of silica gel preservation methods to lactic acid bacteria widely used in yogurt and cheese fermentation. Strains of Streptococcus lactis, Streptococcus lactis subsp. diacetylactis, Streptococcus cremoris, Streptococcus thermophilus. Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus helveticus and a yogurt culture were adsorbed on anhydrous silica gel in screw-cap tubes or in ordinary test tubes which were subsequently flame-sealed under vacuum. During 3 years. the bacteria were tested for viability by incubation in sterile milk. All of the bacteria retained their acidifying activity, with the exception of the yogurt culture. Extending preservation for more than 2 years had a negative effect on the activity of the yogurt culture. Results obtained support the use of screw-cap tubes which, in general, were suitable to preserve suspensions of lactic acid bacteria adsorbed on anhydrous silica gel.

Soyghurt is a fermented soy milk product using Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus bacteria. Efforts to enrich drinks high in antioxidants are carried out by combining food ingredients that can function as antioxidants such as soybeans and jicama. The combination of these two food ingredients and the assistance of the fermentation process by S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricans was expected to increase antioxidant activity in soyghurt production.This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 2 factors, namely: the first factor was the ratio of soybean juice and yam juice (S) which consisted of 4 treatment levels, namely: S0 = 100: 0, S1 = 75: 25, S2 = 50: 50, S3 = 25: 75, S4 0: 100. Meanwhile for the second factor was the duration of fermentation (F) which consisted of 3 levels of treatment, namely: F0 = 6 hours, F1 = 8 hours, F2 = 10 hours. The parameters observed were total solids, total acid, organoleptic value, antioxidant activity, and total lactic acid bacteria in jicama soyghurt on the best samples.The results showed that both treatment factors had a very significant effect (P <0.01) on total solids, total acid, and organoleptic tests of soyghurt. The study showed that the comparison of soybean juice and jicama juice and fermentation duration resulted a high protein content value of 9.18% and was in accordance with the SNI yoghurt protein content, namely minimum of 3.5%. Antioxidant activity of yam bean soyghurt obtained an IC 50 value of 18.110 mg / L and it was a very strong antioxidant. Total lactic acid bacteria on yam soyghurt was 108 CFU / ml and it was high.Based on this research results, it was suggested that soyghurt processing may use a combination with other types of fruits and use natural food coloring to give different flavors and increase the nutritional values of soyghurt.
