This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and/or Sterptococcus thermophilus on the fermentation of yoghurt containing 5% (w/v) buckwheat sprouts. The results revealed that after 12 hours of fermentation the appropriate pH, titratable acidity and number of viable cells were attained. At that time, the rutin content of the buckwheat sprout-added yoghurt prepared by the mixed culture method was not changed, but the quercetin content increased greatly. Conversely, the rutin content of yoghurt that only contained Streptococcus thermophilus was decreased while the quercetin content was increased. The total phenol contents as well as the DPPH radical scavenging activities of both the mixed culture and Streptococcus thermophilus yoghurt did not differ significantly. Taken together, the results revealed that the use of a mixed culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus during the preparation of buchwheat sprout-added yoghurt was desirable due to the decrease in pH and increase in titratable acidity and viable cells that occurred after 12 hr of fermentation. Moreover, phytochemicals in buckwheat sprouts such as rutin, quercetin and phenol compounds were comparatively increased during fermentation and influenced the antioxidant activity in buckwheat sprout-added yoghurt.

One bacterial strain, that had made the largest inhibition zone at the antagonism assay and also that lost the inhibition activity by the protease treatment, was isolated from raw milk. That strain was identified as Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus. The specific growht rate of this strain was maximum at 45$\circ $C. However, at this temperature the strain produced no bacteriocin. The bacteriocin activity was quite stable even at high temperature. Moreover, the activity of the vacteriocin was sensitive to proteases. but not to $\alpha $-amylase, DNase I, or RNase.

Lactobacillus helveticus YM-1 과 Streptococcus thermophilus CH-1을 환원탈지유 배지에 접종하여 생육특성 및 배양조건을 검토한 결과 두 균은 전형적인 공생을 나타냈으며 혼합배양시 최적 pH와 온도는 각각 6.5와 4$0^{\circ}C$였다. 또한 두 균 사이에는 단백질 분해력의 차이가 현저하였고 L.helveticus의 배양여액에는 S. thermophilus의 생육을 촉진시키는 물질이 함유되어 있음을 관찰하였다.

We estabilished the procedure for isolation of Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus from raw milk. First, urease-producing lactic acid bacteria in raw milk were screened on the HY agar medium containing urea. Thereafter the urease-producing colonies were tested the ability to ferment maltose and to grow at43$\circ $C. We obtained about 400 maltose-negative colonies that grew at 43$\circ $C. No significant difference in carbohydrate fermentation test for isolated and type strains(S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus ATCC 19258 and ST-4) was found. And all of the isolated strains were able to ferment galactose. Furthermore, it was investigated that the cellular fatty acid profiles of isolated strains were similar to that of type strains. These results indicated that the isolated strains from raw milk were S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus. But when the isolated and type strains were incubated in 12% reconstituted skim milk at 43$\circ $C, the isolates produced lactic acid more slowly than the type strains.

The lactic acid bacterium Streptococcus thermophilus is widely used as a starter culture for the production of dairy products. Whole-genome sequencing is expected to utilize the genetic basis behind the metabolic functioning of lactic acid bacterium (LAB), for development of their use in biotechnological and probiotic applications. We sequenced the whole genome of Streptococcus thermophilus MTCC 5461, the strain isolated from a curd source, by 454 GS-FLX titanium and Ion Torrent PGM. We performed comparative genome analysis using the local BLAST and RDP for 16S rDNA comparison and by the RAST server for functional comparison against the published genome sequence of Streptococcus thermophilus CNRZ 1066. The whole genome size of S. thermophilus MTCC 5461 is of 1.73Mb size with a GC content of 39.3%. Streptococcal virulence-related genes are either inactivated or absent in the strain. The genome possesses coding sequences for features important for a probiotic organism such as adhesion, acid tolerance, bacteriocin production, and lactose utilization, which was found to be conserved among the strains MTCC 5461 and CNRZ 1066. Biochemical analysis revealed the utilization of 17 sugars by the bacterium, where the presence of genes encoding enzymes involved in metabolism for 16 of these 17 sugars were confirmed in the genome. This study supports the facts that the strain MTCC 5461 is nonpathogenic and harbors essential features that can be exploited for its probiotic potential.

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.

The lactase activities of nine species of lactic acid bacteria were compared using the chromogenic substrate, $o-nitrophenyl-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$. Streptococcus thermophilus KACC 91147 had the highest lactase activity among a total of thirty strains of Lactobacillus and S. thermophilus tested, including commercial strains. S. thermophilus KACC 91147 released $0.30{\pm}0.12\;mg/mL$ of galactose in treated milk A ($10^7\;CFU/mL$) and $6.49{\pm}0.38\;mg/mL$ in treated milk B ($10^9\;CFU/mL$ milk) over 2 hours. In milk tolerance tests, the blood glucose level (BGL) of 6 volunteers (2 males and 4 females) clinically diagnosed as lactose intolerant increased 3.0 mg/dl after drinking milk A, but a significant (p<0.05) additional increase of $11.2{\pm}4.18\;mg/dl$ was found after drinking milk B. This result suggests that the addition of S. thermophilus KACC 91147 cells into milk aids the digestion of lactose in milk and ameliorates the symptoms of lactose-intolerant individuals due to the activity of lactase from the lactic streptococci.

Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus fermentum and Lactobacillus casei were successfully isolated from indigenous Indonesian fresh milk based on the general morphological and biochemical classification as described in Bergey's manual. Verification was conducted by sequencing of 16S rRNA after selection using the classification method mentioned in the manual. All isolates exhibited antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in the well diffusion test. The susceptibilities of the isolated S. thermophilus 24/S1 and L. delbrueckii 94/L4 against 22 different antibiotics were determined by the disc diffusion method and variable susceptibility patterns were observed. Both isolates were susceptible to amoxicillin, the most commonly prescribed antibiotic, and resistant to sulfonamide. The presence of a plasmid was not detected after extraction. S. thermophilus 24/S1 and L. delbrueckii 94/L4 starter cultures were prepared for yogurt production after 9.5 h of incubation and the yogurt was evaluated for its flavor and quality by 30 volunteers. A score of $4.93{\pm}0.45$ out of 7 was obtained as compared to the yogurt prepared using commercial starter cultures which yielded a score of $4.76{\pm}0.30$ out of 7.
