Abstract
The present study was carried out to evaluate the preparation of the fermented milks with rice bran and to prove that the bacteria used are necessary for providing amino acids in this process. The rice bran on fermented milk with Streptococcus thermophilus (ST-body1) and Lactobacillus casei (LC-10). The fermentation limit was set until acidimetry score reaches 1. There are reports of titratable acidity, pH, viable cell count and amounts of organic acids affecting amino acid production about physical and chemical analysis measured using HPLC. Finally, sensory test was surveyed. In this study, the rate of acidification was higher in the fermented milk with rice bran than in the common fermented milk. In case of the number of cells was $1.0{\times}10^8CFU/mL$ in group. The lactic acid and citric acid content in yogurts prepared with rice bran using Streptococcus thermophilus (ST-body1) and Lactobacillus casei (LC-10) was higher than that in the control yogurt. Amino acids derived by rice bran were effected in fermentation for each bacteria's necessary amino acid production, and it made bacteria growth larger. From the physical test of the fermented milk with rice bran, flavor, texture, sweetness, overall taste of the fermented milk of Streptococcus thermophilus (ST-body1) were found to be much better than those of the other groups. The results obtained for the fermented milk prepared with rice bran using Streptococcus thermophilus (ST-body1) are significant.
본 실험은 쌀겨를 발효식품에 이용하고자 상업용 균주인 Streptococcus thermophilus(ST-body1), Lactobacillus casei(LC-10)을 이용하여 발효유를 제조하고, 발효시간 경과에 따라 적정산도, 유산균수, 유기산 측정, 유리아미노산 측정, 관능검사를 측정하였다. ST-body1은 대조구와 처리구 모두 발효 3시간째에 급격하게 산도가 증가하였다. 하지만 LC-10은 산도의 증가폭이 크지 않아 24시간 발효를 하여도 산도가 0.5%를 넘지 못하였다. 균주의 생균수는 대조군과 실험군 모두 배양 24시간 동안 뚜렷한 경향 없이 $10^6{\sim}10^9CFU/mL$ 사이로 존재하였다. 유기산 및 유리아미노산 측정 결과, ST-body1 생장 및 생육에는 glutamic acid가 LC-10 생장 및 생육에는 aspartic acid가 밀접한 관계를 보였으며, LC-10은 발효 시 methionine이 20~30시간 경에 감소하다가 증가하는 것으로 보아 methionine을 발효 시 이용하고, 재생산하는 것으로 추측된다. 관능검사 결과, 선호도는 ST-body1이 미강의 존재 유무에 관계없이 우수하였다.
