THE NEW LACTOBACILLUS PLANTARUM ISOLATED FROM KIMCHI HAVING HIGH RESISTANCE ABILITY OF ACID AND BILE AND PRODUCTS CONTAINING IT

摘要

PURPOSE: A microorganism Lactobacillus plantarum having improved acid resistance and bile tolerance and isolated from kimchi and products containing the same are provided, thereby stably transferring the microorganism to the large intestine, so that environments in the large intestine can be improved. CONSTITUTION: A microorganism, Lactobacillus plantarum YM 0105 (KCCM-10315), having improved acid resistance and bile tolerance is isolated from kimchi by the steps of: collecting kimchi juice in a tube; inoculating the kimchi juice into Latobacilli selective LBS agar medium; culturing the medium for 48 hours and isolating 120 strains; subculturing 120 strains in MRS broth in twice; and selecting a strain showing excellent acid tolerance and bile tolerance.
