Abstract

Three slime-forming lactic acid bacteria were isolated from traditional Korean fermented soy sauce and soybean paste and shown to produce exopolysaccharides (EPS) in sucrose media. By isolating the strains, examining their morphological characteristics and determining their 16S rDNA sequences, N58-5 and K6-7 were identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides and N45- 10 as Leuconostoc citreum. The acid and bile tolerances of these three strains were investigated. Amongst the three lactic acid bacteria, Leuc. citreum N45-10 exhibited the highest viability ($10^5-10^6$ CFU/ml) in 0.05 M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 0.3) for 2 h, in artificial gastric juice for 2 h and in 0.3%, 0.5% oxgall for 24h. Leuc. mesenteroides K6-7, N58-5 and Leuc. citreum N45- 10 were grown in sucrose liquid medium and 8.16 g/L, 3.65 g/L, 16.17 g/L of EPS was collected, respectively. The hydrolyzed EPS was analyzed by HPLC in order to determine the sugar composition of EPS. Leuc. mesenteroides K6-7 and N58-5 showed two peaks indicating glucose and fructose, thus they were determined to be hetero-type polysaccharides. Leuc. citreum N45-10 showed only the glucose polymer, indicating it to be a homo-type polysaccharide. In addition, all three lactic acid bacterial hemolysis did not demonstrate a clear zone in blood agar in the area surrounding a lactic acid bacteria colony.

전통 장류에서 점성물질을 분비하는 유산균을 분리하고 높은 활성을 보이는 N45-10, K6-7 및 N58-5의 3균주를 선발하였다. 선발한 3균주의 16S rDNA의 염기서열을 분석한 결과 N45-10은 Leuc. citreum, K6-7, N58-5는 Leuc. mesenteroides로 동정되었다. 산 저항성과 인공위액 저항성은 3균주 중에서 Leuc. citreum N45-10이 높은 생균수($10^5-10^6$ CFU/ml)를 나타내어 산 저항성과 인공위액 저항성이 가장 우수하게 나타났으며, 인공 담즙 저항성은 Leuc. citreum N45-10은 높은 생균수($10^3-10^4$ CFU/ml)를 유지하여 담즙액 저항성이 우수하게 나타났다. 3균주들 중에서 Leuc. citreum N45-10은 EPS 생성량이 가장 많았고, MRS 배지에서 배양하여 EPS가 생성되지 않았을 때보다 슈크로오스 배지에서 배양하여 EPS를 생성하였을 때 생균수가 더 높게 나타났다. 이것은 EPS 생성이 유산균의 세포벽 주위에 보호막으로 작용한 결과로 생각된다. 선발 유산균 3주의 EPS 생산량은 슈크로오스 액체배지에서 각각 16.173, 8.167, 3.652 g/L였으며, Leuc. citreum N45-10은 글루코오스로만 이루어진 homo-polysaccharide, Leuc. mesenteroides K6-7과 N58-5는 프락토오스, 글루코오스로 구성된 hetero-polysaccharides로 동정되었다. 선발 유산균 3주 모두는 용혈 음성반응을 나타내고, 젤라틴 액화능을 나타내지 않아 안전성이 확인되었다.
