Abstract

This invention addresses the problem of providing a low pH, high sugar concentration food and drink with good Lactobacillus gasseri survivability even after prolonged storage, which can be obtained by adding a specific lactic acid bacteria to a low pH, high sugar concentration food and beverage containing Lactobacillus gasseri. The specific lactic acid bacteria refers to a lactic acid bacteria capable of reducing pH to a constant value in a low pH, high sugar concentration condition.

Description

ガセリ菌の生残性の高い飲食品およびその製造方法Food / beverage products with high survival of gasseri bacteria and method for producing the same
本発明は、ラクトバチルス・ガセリ(Lactobacillus gasseri、以下単にラクトバチルス・ガセリ、ガセリ菌ということがある。)の生残性の高い飲食品の製造方法に関する。さらに詳しくは、ガセリ菌と他の特定の乳酸菌を混合することでガセリ菌の生残性を高めた飲食品の製造方法に関する。また、当該製造方法によって製造されたガセリ菌を含む飲食品に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a food or drink product having a high survival rate of Lactobacillus gasseri (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as Lactobacillus gasseri or gasseri). More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a food or drink in which the viability of gasseri is increased by mixing gasseri and other specific lactic acid bacteria. Moreover, it is related with the food / beverage products containing the gasseri microbe manufactured by the said manufacturing method.
乳酸菌およびビフィズス菌は、多くの発酵食品において、乳酸発酵によるpH低下、風味改善に寄与している一方、生きたままの状態で腸まで到達させることで、整腸効果、免疫賦活など様々な生理活性を示すことが明らかになってきている。ヨーグルトや乳酸菌飲料を中心に乳酸菌・ビフィズス菌等の有用微生物による機能性をうたった食品は増えており、健康への関心の高まりとともに今後も需要は増大していくと考えられる。 In many fermented foods, lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria contribute to pH reduction and flavor improvement due to lactic acid fermentation. It has become clear to show activity. Foods that claim to be functional by useful microorganisms such as lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria, mainly yogurt and lactic acid bacteria beverages, are increasing, and it is expected that demand will continue to increase with increasing interest in health.
特定保健用食品として承認されるためには、試験に基づいた科学的根拠を提示することが求められる。したがって、有用微生物を用いる特定保健用食品に関しては、その食品が掲げる機能性が保証されるだけの生菌数を規定することになる。すなわち、当該食品の賞味期限内に一定以上の菌数が生き残ることが必須である。また、特定保健用食品以外の食品であっても、食品中の生菌数を維持することは品質管理上、非常に重要である。
しかしながら、菌種によっては食品中の環境、例えばpHや浸透圧等の影響を受けて保存中に容易に死滅していく場合があり、生菌数の維持管理は困難な場合が多い。
To be approved as a food for specified health use, it is required to provide scientific evidence based on the test. Therefore, for the food for specified health use that uses useful microorganisms, the number of viable bacteria that can assure the functionality of the food is specified. That is, it is essential that a certain number of bacteria survive within the shelf life of the food. Moreover, even if it is food other than food for specified health use, it is very important for quality control to maintain the number of viable bacteria in food.
However, depending on the bacterial species, it may be easily killed during storage under the influence of the environment in food, such as pH and osmotic pressure, and the maintenance of the number of viable bacteria is often difficult.
例えば、ビフィズス菌は食品中の酸素含量やpHの影響を受けやすいことが知られており、その生残性を改善するために以下に挙げる方法がとられている。液状またはのり状食品におけるビフィズス菌の保存中の菌数低下を防止するために、衛生上無害なカタラーゼ陽性微生物の無細胞抽出液を食品に添加する方法(特許文献1参照)が知られている。また、ビフィズス菌とラクトコッカス・ラクティス・サブスピーシーズ・ラクティス(Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis)を混合培養する発酵乳の製造方法(特許文献2参照)が知られている。 For example, bifidobacteria are known to be easily affected by the oxygen content and pH in foods, and the following methods are used to improve the survival of the bacteria. A method of adding a cell-free extract of catalase-positive microorganisms that are harmless to hygiene to foods in order to prevent a decrease in the number of bifidobacteria during storage of liquid or paste-like foods is known (see Patent Document 1). . In addition, a method for producing fermented milk in which Bifidobacteria and Lactococcus lactis subsp. Lactis are mixed and cultured (see Patent Document 2) is known.
また、ビフィズス菌と同様に有用微生物として食品に用いられる乳酸菌として、ガセリ菌がある。ガセリ菌についても、食品中の環境条件によっては容易に死滅していくため、ビフィズス菌と同様に生残性の改善が求められている。ガセリ菌の生残性を改善する方法としては、抗酸化能が高い乳酸菌株との混合培養によって、低温で保存した場合の生残性が上昇すること(非特許文献1参照)が知られている。 In addition, there are gasseri bacteria as lactic acid bacteria used in foods as useful microorganisms in the same manner as bifidobacteria. Since gasseri bacteria can be easily killed depending on the environmental conditions in the food, improvement of survival is required in the same way as bifidobacteria. As a method for improving the viability of gasseri bacteria, it is known that the viability when stored at a low temperature is increased by mixed culture with a lactic acid strain having high antioxidant ability (see Non-Patent Document 1). Yes.

しかしながら、発酵乳を含む食品中ではpH低下、浸透圧、酸化ストレス等が複合的に作用するため、単に抗酸化能が高い乳酸菌株と混合培養するという酸化ストレスの解消だけではガセリ菌の生残性を十分に改善することはできなかった。  
ここで、ガセリ菌の保存生残性に対する酸化ストレスの解消の影響を調べた結果を表1に示す。表1は、乳酸菌飲料と同等のpH3.7において、1%グルコース、0.3M乳酸緩衝液にガセリ菌の洗浄菌体を懸濁し、酸化ストレス解消のため還元剤であるL-システイン塩酸塩を添加した場合と添加しなかった場合について、10℃で保存してガセリ菌数(CFU/g)を測定した結果である。
本結果より、ガセリ菌の生残性は、L-システイン塩酸塩の添加によって酸化ストレスが解消された場合であっても、酸化ストレスを改善していない場合に比べれば若干改善したものの、21日間保存後の生残数は2.6×10 CFU/gにすぎず、ガセリ菌の有用微生物としての効果を発揮するためには満足できるものではなかった。
However, in foods containing fermented milk, pH reduction, osmotic pressure, oxidative stress, etc. act in a complex manner. The sex could not be improved sufficiently.
Here, Table 1 shows the results of examining the effect of elimination of oxidative stress on the storage viability of gasseri bacteria. Table 1 shows that L-cysteine hydrochloride, which is a reducing agent, is used to suspend rinsing cells of gasseri in 1% glucose and 0.3 M lactic acid buffer solution at pH 3.7 equivalent to that of lactic acid bacteria beverages. It is the result of having stored at 10 degreeC and measuring the number of gasseri bacteria (CFU / g) about the case where it does not add when it adds.
From this result, even when the oxidative stress was eliminated by the addition of L-cysteine hydrochloride, the viability of Gasseri was improved slightly compared to the case where the oxidative stress was not improved, but for 21 days. The number of survivors after storage was only 2.6 × 10 3 CFU / g, which was not satisfactory for exhibiting the effect of gasseri as a useful microorganism.

本発明におけるガセリ菌は、ラクトバチルス・ガセリ(Lactobacillus gasseri)に属するものであればいずれでもよく、SBT2055(FERM BP-10953)、SBT2056(FERM BP-11038)、SBT0274(FERM BP-11039)、SBT1703(FERM P-17785)、SBT10239(FERM P-16639)、SBT10241(FERM P-17786)等が挙げられる。 The gasseri bacterium in the present invention may be any one belonging to Lactobacillus gasseri, and SBT2055 (FERM BP-10953), SBT2056 (FERM BP-11038), SBT0274 (FERM BP-11039), SBT1703.

本発明において、ガセリ菌と混合する特定の乳酸菌は、ガセリ菌と混合することでガセリ菌の生残性を向上させる乳酸菌であればよく、そのような乳酸菌としては、3%(w/w)還元脱脂乳および10%(w/w)グルコースを含むpH4.0の培地に添加して10℃で21日間静置培養したときに当該培地のpHを0.1以上低下させることができる乳酸菌が挙げられる。そのような性質を有する乳酸菌は、3%(w/w)還元脱脂乳および10%(w/w)グルコースを含むpH4.0の培地に添加して10℃で21日間静置培養したときに当該培地のpHを0.1以上低下させることができる乳酸菌をスクリーニングすることにより得られ、具体的にはラクトバチルス・パラカゼイ(Lactobacillus paracasei、以下ラクトバチルス・パラカゼイということがある。)、ラクトバチルス・プランタラム(Lactobacillus plantarum、以下ラクトバチルス・プランタラムということがある。)、ラクトバチルス・ブフネリ(Lactobacillus buchneri、以下ラクトバチルス・ブフネリということがある。)等が挙げられる。後述する実施例2で示したように、添加するパラカゼイ菌の菌数を変えた場合に、代謝に伴うpH低下率とガセリ菌の生残性が反比例した。よって、ラクトバチルス・ガセリと混合する特定の乳酸菌数は多い方が好ましいが、例えば、ガセリ菌に対して0.001%以上、好ましくは0.01%以上混合することにより、混合したガセリ菌の生残性を向上させることができる。また死菌体では効果がみられなかったことから、ガセリ菌の生残性向上効果は低温、pH、高糖濃度ストレス条件下における代謝活性と相関すると考えられる。そこでpH4.0の3%(w/w)還元脱脂乳、10%(w/w)グルコース条件で一定以上pHを低下させることをスクリーニングの指標とした。

Plantarum (Lactobacillus plantarum, hereinafter referred to as Lactobacillus plantarum) and Lactobacillus buchneri (hereinafter, also referred to as Lactobacillus buchneri). As shown in Example 2 to be described later, when the number of paracasei bacteria to be added was changed, the pH reduction rate accompanying metabolism and the viability of gasseri bacteria were inversely proportional. Therefore, it is preferable that the number of specific lactic acid bacteria to be mixed with Lactobacillus gasseri is larger. For example, by mixing 0.001% or more, preferably 0.01% or more of gasseri bacteria, Survivability can be improved. In addition, since no effect was observed in dead cells, the survival improvement effect of gasseri is considered to correlate with metabolic activity under low temperature, pH, and high sugar concentration stress conditions. Therefore, a 3% (w / w) reduced skim milk having a pH of 4.0, and lowering the pH by a certain level under 10% (w / w) glucose conditions was used as an index for screening.
Specific lactic acid bacteria to be mixed with Lactobacillus gasseri include Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus buchneri, etc., but 3% (w / w) reduced skim milk and 10% ( w / w) Particularly limited as long as it is a lactic acid bacterium capable of lowering the pH of the medium by 0.1 or more when it is added to a pH 4.0 medium containing glucose and statically cultured at 10 ° C. for 21 days. is not.
