Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of yogurt drinks, and in particular relates to a ginseng yogurt drink and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Yogurt is a dairy product made from pasteurized milk, then supplemented with beneficial lactic acid bacteria, fermented, cooled, and bottled. Yogurt not only retains the benefits of milk but also boasts a sweet and sour, smooth, and mellow taste. The presence of active lactic acid bacteria, which regulates intestinal flora and promotes digestion and absorption, has made it a popular choice. Ginseng is a genus of plant in the Araliaceae family. Ginseng saponins, a triterpenoid saponin, possess numerous physiological activities, including tonic, anti-aging, analgesic, neurostable, anti-inflammatory, anti-fatigue, and anti-tumor properties. Adding ginseng to yogurt replenishes essential nutrients, boosts immunity, and alleviates fatigue, making it a highly valued nutritional supplement.

[0003] In the prior art, ginseng yogurt is prepared by directly adding ginseng to yogurt raw materials. When consumed, the yogurt passes through the stomach and small intestine at a relatively fast speed, and the time it stays in these parts to be digested and absorbed is relatively short. In addition, the effective ingredient ginsenoside in ginseng is easily degraded and inactivated by enzymes in the stomach, which ultimately leads to a low absorption rate of ginsenoside by the human body and an inability to fully supplement nutrients. In addition, ginsenoside tastes extremely bitter and has a peculiar smell. Directly adding ginsenoside will affect the taste of the yogurt, making it unacceptable to the public. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a ginseng yogurt drink and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus gasseri and Lactobacillus mucosae in a volume ratio of 1:1:1-3:2-4 to obtain a mixed bacterial liquid; Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus gasseri and Lactobacillus mucosae are all probiotics that can regulate the balance of intestinal flora and inhibit the proliferation of harmful intestinal bacteria; the four probiotics have a high number of viable bacteria and are highly active after activation; the mixed bacterial liquid is inoculated into a culture medium for cultivation, and then mixed with a ginseng extract to obtain an active substance; not only the activity of the four probiotics is improved, but also the stability of the strains is enhanced, and the ginseng extract and the probiotics interact effectively. The method comprises the following steps: the synergistic effect is achieved, thereby improving the efficacy of probiotics in treating gastrointestinal diseases; the active substance in step S2 is coated with soybean chitin and sodium alginate to obtain microencapsulated active substance; soybean chitin not only improves the stability of the gel system, but also improves the survival rate of probiotics during gastrointestinal digestion and storage, can promote the growth of probiotics and control the release of probiotics in the large intestine; the whole-fat sterilized milk, sweetener and thickening gel are mixed, homogenized and sterilized, and then the microencapsulated active substance is added, fermented and cooled to finally obtain a ginseng yogurt drink, which has a good taste and flavor and improves the acceptability of the yogurt.

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is as follows: In the prior art, ginseng yogurt is prepared by directly adding ginseng to yogurt raw materials. When consumed, the yogurt passes through the stomach and small intestine at a relatively fast speed, and the time it stays in these parts and is digested and absorbed is relatively short. In addition, the effective ingredient ginsenoside in ginseng is easily degraded and lost its activity under the action of enzymes in the stomach, which ultimately leads to a low absorption rate of ginsenoside by the human body and an inability to fully play the role of supplementing nutrients. At the same time, ginsenoside tastes extremely bitter and has a special smell. Direct addition of ginsenoside will affect the taste of the yogurt, making it unacceptable to the public.

[0044] Sensory analysis was performed on the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5: The products of the present invention were tested in terms of acceptability and likability. A descriptive analysis was also performed on the products of the present invention to determine the main characteristics of the products based on appearance and color, taste, flavor, texture, and overall acceptability. All sensory analyses were performed by a trained professional team consisting of 10 students majoring in food science. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 11.5 using analysis of variance and chi-square test (P < 0.05). The analysis results are shown in Table 1 below: Table 1 Sensory analysis of ginseng yogurt drinks prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 (five-point scale) Ginsenoside blood concentration test: The ginseng yogurt drinks prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were subjected to a gavage test on mice with the same dose. The average blood concentration of the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 at each time point after gavage was tested. The test results are shown in Table 2 below: Table 2 Ginsenoside blood concentration parameters of ginseng yogurt drinks prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 As can be seen from the data in Tables 1 and 2 above, and by comparing Comparative Examples 1-2 with Example 3, the test results of the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared by mixing Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus gasseri or by mixing Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus gasseri, Lactobacillus mucosae and Lactobacillus plantarum are poorer than those of Example 3, indicating that mixing Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus gasseri and Lactobacillus mucosae in a certain volume ratio can better regulate the balance of the intestinal flora, increase the absorption rate of ginsenosides, promote the digestion and absorption of nutrients by the intestine, and improve the sensory properties of the ginseng yogurt drinks, increase the flavor and mouthfeel of the yogurt, and improve the acceptability of the yogurt. From the comparison of Comparative Example 3 and Example 3, it can be seen that the ginseng extract in step S2 is not mixed with the activated bacteria and is directly added to step B1 to prepare the ginseng yogurt drink. The test results are worse than those of Example 3. This shows that mixing the ginseng extract with the activated bacteria first and then coating it with soybean chitin and sodium alginate can not only improve the stability of the four probiotics and enhance their activity, but also the ginseng extract and the four probiotics have a synergistic effect, which can better inhibit the proliferation of harmful bacteria, thereby improving the efficacy of ginseng yogurt in treating gastrointestinal diseases. In addition, the coating with soybean chitin and sodium alginate can protect ginsenosides, allowing them to be fully digested and absorbed in the intestine, thereby improving the nutritional value of yogurt. From the comparison between Comparative Example 4 and Example 3, it can be seen that the test results of the ginseng yogurt drink prepared by directly coating the mixed bacterial liquid with soybean chitosan and sodium alginate are worse than those of Example 3. This shows that the mixed bacterial liquid is first mixed with the ginseng extract and then encapsulated in the soybean chitosan and sodium alginate system. It can effectively improve the activity of probiotics, improve the adaptability of probiotics in the intestinal environment, effectively regulate the intestinal microbial flora, and enable ginsenosides to be fully digested and absorbed in the intestine, thereby enhancing the intestinal health of the human body. By comparing Comparative Example 5 with Example 3, it can be seen that the ginseng yogurt drink is prepared by directly encapsulating the active substance in the sodium alginate system, and its test results are worse than those of Example 3, indicating that the active substance is encapsulated in the soybean chitin and sodium alginate system. The soybean chitin can not only improve the stability of the gel system, but also increase the survival rate of probiotics during gastrointestinal digestion and storage, promote the growth of probiotics, further improve the adaptability of probiotics in the intestinal environment, effectively inhibit the proliferation of harmful bacteria, regulate the intestinal microbial flora, and promote the absorption and digestion of nutrients by the intestine.

[0045] From the data in Table 1 and Table 2, it can be seen that, compared with the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared from Comparative Examples 1-5, the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared from Examples 1-3 are prepared by mixing Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus gasseri and Lactobacillus mucosae, then inoculating into culture medium for culture, then mixing with ginseng extract, coating with soybean hull polysaccharide and sodium alginate to obtain microencapsulated active substances, mixing full-fat sterilized milk, sweeteners and thickening gel, then homogenizing and sterilizing, then adding microencapsulated active substances, then fermenting and cooling, and finally obtaining ginseng yogurt drinks, which meet the performance requirements, while the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared from Comparative Examples 1-5 do not meet the performance requirements, indicating that the ginseng yogurt drinks prepared from the application can effectively inhibit the proliferation of harmful bacteria, better regulate the intestinal microbial flora, promote the absorption and digestion of nutrients by the intestinal tract, and improve the sensory properties of the ginseng yogurt drinks and the acceptability of the yogurt.
