Lactic Fermentation of Steamed Barley with an Enzyme and a Lactobacillus

전분분해효소와 유산균에 의한 보리의 유산발효

Fermented barley food was produced by the combining action of an enzyme and a lactobacillus. When Lactobacillus sp. L-5 and commercial liquefying amylase from Tae Pyeong Yang Chemical Co. were selected, inoculated on steamed barley and cultivated at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 48hrs, the fermented product of good quality was obtained. In batch cultivation using rotary drum fermentor, viable cell count reached 1.1$\times$10CFU/g after 12hrs' cultivation, and specific growth rate in logarithmic phase was 0.6hr-1. Viable cell count, acidity, pH, concentration of reducing sugar and viscosity of the 48hrs' fermentation product from rotary drum fermentor was 4.3$\times$108CFU/g, 1.17%, 3.1, 10.7% and 1430cp.
