标题:Effect of Auricularia auricula aqueous extract on survival of Lactobacillus acidophilus La‐5 and Bifidobacterium bifidum Bb‐12 and on sensorial and functional properties of synbiotic yogurt
摘要:The effect of Auricularia auricula aqueous extract (AAE) on the survival of Lactobacillus acidophilus La‐5 and Bifidobacterium bifidum Bb‐12, and on chemical and sensory properties of yogurt was investigated during 28 days of storage at 4°C. The use of 0.05% of AAE improved the survival of L. acidophilus La‐5 and B. bifidum Bb‐12 about 0.35 and 0.58 log CFU/g, respectively. However, AAE in 0.1% concentration enhanced the survival of L. acidophilus La‐5 and B. bifidum Bb‐12 about 0.43 and 0.51 log CFU/g, respectively. Moreover, 0.1% concentration of AAE drastically increased antioxidant activity and total phenolic content to 115.30 mg BHT eq./kg and 1,057.6 mg Gallic acid/kg after 28 days, respectively. Addition of AAE to the yogurt significantly decreased sensorial acceptance while increased syneresis compared to the control group ( p < .05). In conclusion, the results of this study showed that addition of AAE improved probiotic protection and functional properties of the yogurt recommending its application in symbiotic yogurt.
