Description

本発明は、乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤に関する。また、本発明は、その乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤の有効成分を含む酸性飲料に関する。 The present invention relates to an agent for suppressing a decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria. The present invention also relates to an acidic beverage containing the active ingredient of the agent for suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria.

乳酸菌は生菌でヒトに摂取されることによって、ヒトに様々な健康効果をもたらす。生きた乳酸菌を摂取することができる飲食品としてヨーグルト、乳酸菌飲料が知られている。ヨーグルトおよび乳酸菌飲料は乳成分を含む。乳成分は乳酸菌に対して保護効果を有する。このため、ヨーグルトおよび乳酸菌飲料を保存した際には、乳酸菌は死滅しにくい。したがって、ヨーグルトや乳酸菌飲料では、数週間の賞味期限中、健康効果をもたらすために必要な乳酸菌の生菌数を維持することが比較的容易である。 Lactic acid bacteria bring various health benefits to humans when they are ingested as live bacteria. Yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks are known as foods and drinks that can ingest live lactic acid bacteria. Yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks contain milk components. Milk components have a protective effect against lactic acid bacteria. Therefore, when yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks are stored, lactic acid bacteria are not easily killed. Therefore, in yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks, it is relatively easy to maintain the viable number of lactic acid bacteria required to provide health benefits during the shelf life of several weeks.

ところで、乳成分を含有しない清涼飲料等は、ヨーグルトや乳酸菌飲料に比べ、配合の設計の自由度が大きい。このため、乳酸菌の生菌を清涼飲料に添加することで、例えば、ノンカロリー飲料や低カロリー飲料など、ヨーグルトや乳酸菌飲料では不可能であった消費者の幅広いニーズに応えられる商品に対して、乳酸菌の健康効果を付与した飲料を製造販売することが可能となる。 By the way, soft drinks and the like that do not contain milk components have a greater degree of freedom in designing their formulations than yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks. Therefore, by adding live lactic acid bacteria to soft drinks, products such as non-calorie and low-calorie drinks can be created that can meet a wide range of consumer needs, which was not possible with yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks. It becomes possible to manufacture and sell beverages with the health effects of lactic acid bacteria.

しかしながら、ヨーグルトや乳酸菌飲料に比べ、乳成分などを実質的に含まない液体中では、乳酸菌が冷蔵保存中でも死滅しやすい。このため、今までは、清涼飲料など乳成分を実質的に含まない飲料において乳酸菌を生きた状態で数週間維持することは困難であった。また、通常、清涼飲料では、風味の向上および雑菌汚染の防止のため、酸味料としてクエン酸が用いられることが多い。クエン酸は一般に抗菌効果を有するため、クエン酸の添加により、清涼飲料中での乳酸菌の死滅はさらに促進される。 However, compared to yogurt and lactic acid bacteria drinks, lactic acid bacteria are more likely to die in liquids that do not substantially contain milk components even during refrigerated storage. For this reason, until now, it has been difficult to maintain lactic acid bacteria alive for several weeks in beverages that do not substantially contain milk components, such as soft drinks. In addition, citric acid is usually used as an acidulant in soft drinks to improve flavor and prevent bacterial contamination. Since citric acid generally has an antibacterial effect, the addition of citric acid further accelerates the killing of lactic acid bacteria in soft drinks.

本発明の課題は、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料において、できるだけ長期に亘って乳酸菌の生菌を存在させることができる剤を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide an agent that allows viable lactic acid bacteria to exist for as long as possible in a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage that does not contain any or substantially no milk components.

本発明の一局面に係る乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤は、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まないか清涼飲料等の飲料に乳酸菌の生菌を添加した際においてその生菌数の減少を抑制するための添加剤であって、乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方を有効成分とする。なお、この乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤は、乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方のみから構成されていてもよいし、乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方以外の成分を含んでいてもよい。また、上述の「乳成分を全く含まない」とは、例えば、飲料中の乳成分の含有濃度が0.1質量%未満であることを意味し、「乳成分を実質的に含まない」とは、例えば、飲料中の乳成分の含有濃度が1質量%未満であることを意味する。 The agent for suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria according to one aspect of the present invention does not contain any or substantially no milk component, or the number of viable bacteria increases when the viable lactic acid bacteria are added to a beverage such as a soft drink. It is an additive for suppressing the decrease in lactic acid, and contains at least one of lactic acid and its salt as an active ingredient. The agent for suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria may be composed of at least one of lactic acid and a salt thereof, or may contain components other than at least one of lactic acid and a salt thereof. In addition, the above-mentioned "contains no milk components" means, for example, that the concentration of milk components in the beverage is less than 0.1% by mass, and "contains substantially no milk components" means that the concentration of milk components in the beverage is less than 0.1% by mass. means, for example, that the concentration of milk components in the beverage is less than 1% by mass.

本発明者らは、鋭意検討した結果、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料において、乳酸および乳酸の塩が、乳酸菌の生菌数の減少を抑制する効果を有することを見出した。具体的には、「酸味料としてクエン酸およびそのナトリウム塩を加えた乳酸菌含有・乳成分未含有清涼飲料」および「酸味料として乳酸およびそのナトリウム塩を加えた乳酸菌含有・乳成分未含有清涼飲料」を調製して、両乳酸菌含有・乳成分未含有清涼飲料中の乳酸菌の生菌数の経時変化を調べたところ、前者よりも後者の方が乳酸菌の生菌数の減少速度が緩和されることが見出された。すなわち、この乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤は「乳酸菌の生菌数の減少速度を緩和する剤」と称することもできる。このため、上述の乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤は、乳酸菌の生菌数の減少を抑制する効果を有する。したがって、この乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤は、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料において、できるだけ長期に亘って乳酸菌の生菌を存在させることができる。 As a result of extensive studies, the present inventors have found that lactic acid and lactic acid salts have the effect of suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria in beverages containing lactic acid bacteria that do not contain or substantially contain milk components. I found it. Specifically, "Lactic acid bacteria-containing, non-dairy soft drinks containing citric acid and its sodium salt as an acidulant" and "Lactic acid bacteria-containing, non-dairy soft drinks containing lactic acid and its sodium salt as an acidulant" '' and examined changes over time in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria in both lactic acid bacteria-containing and non-dairy soft drinks, and found that the rate of decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria was slower in the latter than in the former. It was discovered that That is, this agent for suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria can also be referred to as "an agent that slows down the rate of decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria." Therefore, the above-mentioned agent for suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria has the effect of suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria. Therefore, this agent for suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria can allow viable lactic acid bacteria to exist for as long as possible in a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage that does not contain any or substantially no milk components.

また、当然であるが乳酸は酸である。このため、この乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤は、上述の効果のみならず、風味の向上および雑菌汚染の防止にも寄与することができる。 Of course, lactic acid is an acid. Therefore, this inhibitor of the decrease in the viable lactic acid bacteria count not only has the above-mentioned effects, but also contributes to improving flavor and preventing contamination by various bacteria.

なお、上述の発明は、「乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料において、乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方を乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤として使用する方法」、「乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料における乳酸菌の生菌数の減少抑制剤としての使用のための乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方」、「乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方を、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料に添加して乳酸菌の生菌数の減少を抑制する方法」、「乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方を、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料に添加して乳酸菌の生菌数の減少速度を緩和する方法」とも表現することができる。また、別の観点から「乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料において乳酸菌の生菌数の減少を抑制させるための剤の製造のための乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方の使用」、「乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない乳酸菌含有飲料において乳酸菌の生菌数の減少速度を緩和させるための剤の製造のための乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方の使用」とも表現することができる。The above-mentioned invention can also be expressed as "a method of using at least one of lactic acid and its salts as an inhibitor of the reduction in the viable lactic acid bacteria count in a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage containing no or substantially no milk components", "at least one of lactic acid and its salts for use as an inhibitor of the reduction in the viable lactic acid bacteria count in a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage containing no or substantially no milk components", "a method of adding at least one of lactic acid and its salts to a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage containing no or substantially no milk components to reduce the reduction in the viable lactic acid bacteria count", or "a method of adding at least one of lactic acid and its salts to a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage containing no or substantially no milk components to slow the rate of reduction in the viable lactic acid bacteria count". From another perspective, it can also be expressed as "use of lactic acid and at least one of its salts for producing an agent for inhibiting the decrease in the viable lactic acid bacteria count in a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage that contains no or substantially no milk components" and "use of lactic acid and at least one of its salts for producing an agent for slowing the rate of decrease in the viable lactic acid bacteria count in a lactic acid bacteria-containing beverage that contains no or substantially no milk components."

本発明の他の局面に係る乳成分未含有酸性飲料は、乳酸菌の生菌、ならびに、乳酸およびその塩の少なくとも一方を含有する。なお、ここで、「乳成分未含有酸性飲料」とは、乳成分を全く含まないか実質的に含まない酸性飲料である。なお、この乳成分未含有酸性飲料は、容器詰めの飲料であることが好ましい。容器詰めの飲料においてその効果を発揮しやすいからである。 A non-dairy acidic beverage according to another aspect of the present invention contains live lactic acid bacteria and at least one of lactic acid and a salt thereof. Note that the term "dairy component-free acidic beverage" as used herein refers to an acidic beverage that does not contain any or substantially no dairy component. Note that this non-dairy acidic beverage is preferably a packaged beverage. This is because it is easy to exhibit its effect in packaged beverages.

上述の通り、乳酸およびその塩は、乳酸菌の生菌数の減少を抑制する効果を有する。このため、この乳成分未含有酸性飲料では、乳酸菌の生菌数が減少するのを抑制することができる。したがって、この乳成分未含有酸性飲料は、従前の「乳成分は未含有であるが乳酸菌を含有する酸性飲料」よりも長く乳酸菌の生菌由来の効能を享受することができる。 As mentioned above, lactic acid and its salts have the effect of suppressing the decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria. Therefore, in this non-dairy ingredient-containing acidic beverage, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the number of viable lactic acid bacteria. Therefore, this acidic beverage that does not contain dairy components can enjoy the efficacy derived from live lactic acid bacteria for a longer period of time than the conventional "acidic beverages that do not contain milk components but contain lactic acid bacteria."

なお、上述の他の局面に係る乳成分未含有酸性飲料において、乳酸およびその塩の濃度は、合計で0.05wt%以上1.0wt%以下の範囲内であることが好ましく、0.05wt%以上0.5wt%以下の範囲内であることがより好ましい。なお、ここで、乳酸が含有されるが乳酸塩が含有されない場合、乳酸の濃度は当然に0.05wt%以上1.0wt%以下の範囲内であることが好ましく、0.05wt%以上0.5wt%以下の範囲内であることがより好ましく、乳酸塩が含有されるが乳酸が含有されない場合、乳酸塩の濃度は当然に0.05wt%以上1.0wt%以下の範囲内であることが好ましく、0.05wt%以上0.5wt%以下の範囲内であることがより好ましい。 In addition, in the non-dairy acidic beverage according to the other aspect described above, the concentration of lactic acid and its salts is preferably within a range of 0.05 wt% or more and 1.0 wt% or less, and 0.05 wt%. More preferably, the content is within a range of 0.5 wt% or less. Note that when lactic acid is contained but lactate is not contained, the concentration of lactic acid is naturally preferably within the range of 0.05 wt% to 1.0 wt%, and 0.05 wt% to 0.05 wt%. More preferably, it is within the range of 5 wt% or less, and when lactate is contained but lactic acid is not contained, the concentration of lactate is naturally within the range of 0.05 wt% or more and 1.0 wt% or less. It is preferably in the range of 0.05 wt% or more and 0.5 wt% or less.
