AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods do not effectively produce fermented foods rich in exopolysaccharides using Lactobacillus casei, a plant-derived lactic acid bacterium isolated from the salt-free fermented pickle sunki, lacking specific functionality beyond blood pressure suppression.

Method used

Isolate a Lactobacillus casei strain with high acid tolerance and exopolysaccharide production ability from sunki, inoculate it into dairy raw materials supplemented with manganese-containing yeast extract, and culture it to produce functional fermented foods.

Benefits of technology

Produces fermented foods with a high exopolysaccharide content, including fermented milk and dairy lactic acid bacteria beverages, enhancing their functional properties.

Abstract

To provide a method for producing a fermented food containing a large amount of exopolysaccharide using a strain of Lactobacillus casei separated from a salt-free fermented pickle, Sunki.SOLUTION: From among lactic acid bacteria strains separated from Sunki, a specific strain belonging to Lactobacillus casei having the ability to produce exopolysaccharide is selected, and its strain is inoculated into a milk product raw material having manganese-containing yeast extract added thereto and cultured thereon.SELECTED DRAWING: None
