About Korean Society for Lactic Acid Bacteria and Probiotics

한국유산균프로바이오틱스학회는 2001년 “한국유산균연구회”로 출범하였으며, 2004년 5월에는 '한국유산균학회(Korean Society for Lactic Acid Bacteria)'로 창립 총회를 개최한 이래 본격적인 학술활동을 수행하고 있습니다. 그동안 회원 여러분들의 노고와 성원에 힘입어 매년 괄목할만한 발전을 거듭하고 있으며, 특히 본 학회의 초대 회장인 강국희 박사님께서 중심이 되어 설립한 '아시아유산균학회(AFSLAB)'의 핵심멤버로서 아시아지역 유산균 연구의 중추적인 역할을 수행하면서 국제적인 위상을 높여가고 있습니다. 유산균은 지구상에 인류가 출현한 이래 인간의 건강을 지켜주는 대표적인 유익한 미생물로서 전 세계의 수많은 학자들의 연구에서 나타난 바와 같이 다양한 건강증진 효능이 학술적으로 증명되었고, 근자에 와서 이러한 놀라운 효능들이 우리사회의 주요한 관심사로 대두되면서 본 학회의 역할이 그 어느 때 보다도 중요해지고 있습니다. 미생물 발효의 천국이라 할 수 있는 한반도에서 유산균에 대한 사회적 기대와 요구에 부응하기 위해서 학회 차원의 국내외 심포지엄 개최는 물론 주기적인 세미나 활동을 통해 산ㆍ학ㆍ민ㆍ관ㆍ연의 유기적인 협력체계를 구축하여 정보를 공유하는 한편 학문적 수월성을 제고하고, 관련 산업의 발전을 도모하는 것이 본 학회의 중요한 역할입니다.

Historically recognized as a valuable nutritional source, milk contains essential carbohydrates, proteins, and fats that play diverse functional roles in the human body. While the functional roles of milk nutrients and their derivatives are acknowledged, the corresponding functional foods for each milk component remain inadequately documented in Korea. This review aims to describe the functional roles of milk components and their derivatives, as well as assess the landscape of functional food products available in the Korean market. Milk compon...

Improvement of Lyophilized Probiotics Viability Using a Histidine-based Rehydration Formula

Kyuyeon Lee, Nayeon Kim, Bobae Kim, Hyeshin Kim, Kyoungjun Han, Jieun Yeu, Wilhelm H. Holzapfel, Hyeji Kang

Curr. Top. Lact. Acid Bact. Probiotics 2024;10(1):16-26.
https://doi.org/10.35732/ctlabp.2024.10.1.16

Bacteria get stressed and damaged during freeze-drying process for commercialization and this result in loss of its effect. Viability is important for its efficacy, but this drying process can deteriorate viability by damaging the integrity of the cell membrane as well. In this study, we propose 0.03 M histidine for rehydration of freeze-dried probiotics to improve their viability. The freeze-dried bacteria mixture with 0.03 M histidine showed augmented survivability during in vitro simulated gastric and duodenum stress conditi...

https://doi.org/10.35732/ctlabp.2024.10.1.27

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the neuroprotective effect of heat-treated fermented black beans. The production of fermented black beans was optimized using Lactiplantibacillus plantarum SMF470 and L. plantarum SMF796 strains isolated from kimchi as starters. Compared to heat-treated black bean extract, heat-treated fermented black beans showed significantly higher DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, as well as higher total polyphenol content (p<0.05). The neuroprotect...

To suggest the development possibility of immunostimulating materials from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) postbiotics, Lactobacillus sakei/Leuconostoc mesenteroides were isolated from Kimchi. Next, two isolated LAB were cultured to prepare postbiotics (LABP) to measure macrophage activity. LABP significantly increased the production of macrophage stimulating factors such as nitric oxide, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-6. LABP-crude polysaccharides (CP) fractionated from LABP by EtOH precipitation not o...

This study was investigated to the quality properties of yogurt added with natural additives (almond, corn, and hibiscus). The pH of all natural additives added samples was significantly lower than the control sample (p<0.05). The lightness of the corn added samples was significantly higher than the control sample (p<0.05). The redness of almond and corn samples were shown increase tendency with increasing almond and corn contents; the hibiscus samples was shown significantly higher than the almond and co...

This study sought to confirm the inhibitory ability of Clostridioides difficile KCTC 5009 strain using the bacteriocin-producing Lactococcus lactis CJNU 3001 strain. For this purpose, bacterial culture and partially purified bacteriocin verified the antibacterial activity against C. difficile strain. As a result, both samples showed strong antibacterial activity against the target strain. Co-culture tests were performed to more closely analyze the competition between the two strains. As a resul...
