Abstract
ABSTRACT Predominant lactic acid bacteria and yeasts isolated during the spontaneous fermentation of millet and sorghum were investigated for technological characteristics and food safety. Nutritional profile and antioxidant capacities were monitored. The pH reduced in both malted millet and sorghum slurries to 3.31 and 3.45 respectively. Lactobacillus fermentum KL4, Lb. plantarum MOBL1, Candida tropicalis OBY6 and C. tropicalis MKY6 were selected for high production of lactic acid, diacetyl, and hydrogen peroxide. These strains were safe for use as starter cultures. Starter culture fermented malted millet and sorghum slurries possessed significantly (p < .05) higher niacin and riboflavin content, total phenolics and flavonoid contents. Fermented malted millet slurry (MKC) demonstrated the highest magnesium and potassium contents of 114.2 and 212.13 mg/100 g while spontaneously fermented unmalted sorghum slurry (OBS) the least of 40.2 and 82.3 mg/100 g respectively. Fermented malted millet slurry (MKC) possessed the highest DPPH scavenging activity of 98.2%, while the unmalted spontaneous sorghum slurry (OBS) the least of 60.3%. For ferric reducing antioxidant power, the malted starter culture fermented sorghum slurry (MOBC) displayed the highest value of 998.3 mg/g AAE while unmalted spontaneous millet slurry (KS) the least of 260.2 mg/g AAE after 72 h fermentation time, respectively. Unmalted starter-produced Ogi-baba (OBC) exhibited the significantly highest overall sensory acceptability of 7.50 while the least was the spontaneous fermented malted Ogi-baba (MOBS) with a value of 5.10 (p < .05). The results indicated that Koko and Ogi-baba from whole grains are important sources of nutraceuticals and promising fermented cereal gruels.
期刊介绍:
Food Biotechnology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that is focused on current and emerging developments and applications of modern genetics, enzymatic, metabolic and systems-based biochemical processes in food and food-related biological systems. The goal is to help produce and improve foods, food ingredients, and functional foods at the processing stage and beyond agricultural production.
Other areas of strong interest are microbial and fermentation-based metabolic processing to improve foods, food microbiomes for health, metabolic basis for food ingredients with health benefits, molecular and metabolic approaches to functional foods, and biochemical processes for food waste remediation. In addition, articles addressing the topics of modern molecular, metabolic and biochemical approaches to improving food safety and quality are also published.
Researchers in agriculture, food science and nutrition, including food and biotechnology consultants around the world will benefit from the research published in Food Biotechnology. The published research and reviews can be utilized to further educational and research programs and may also be applied to food quality and value added processing challenges, which are continuously evolving and expanding based upon the peer reviewed research conducted and published in the journal.
