Abstract
In this study, a probiotic fermented beverage was prepared from soy whey and carrot (unfermented, single-strain, double-strain, and triple-strain fermented), and its antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities were investigated. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC–MS) and amino acid analysis revealed that ester content increased from 1.60 × 10−4 μg/mL to 3.34 × 10−4 μg/mL after fermentation with three bacterial strains, compared to the unfermented control. The •OH scavenging capacity increased from 28 % to 92 %. Mouse experiments showed that the fermented beverages significantly affected immune cell levels, with each bacterial strain inducing distinct immunomodulatory effects. Short-term stimulation of cytotoxicity and helper T-cell proliferation was observed after ingestion, along with long-term increases in natural killer cells and memory T-cell counts. This study addressed critical knowledge gaps regarding the efficacy of fermented beverages and provides a theoretical and technical foundation for the high-value utilization of soy by-products.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Foods continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal will keep its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.
The Journal of Functional Foods aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients.
The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food technology, nutrition and health welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal will cover the fields of plant bioactives; dietary fibre, probiotics; functional lipids; bioactive peptides; vitamins, minerals and botanicals and other dietary supplements. Nutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and nutritional needs in pathological subjects.
