The potential probiotic of a total of 15 Bacillus species isolated from Korean soybean paste (doenjang) was evaluated. Among those tested, the CSY191 and CSY388 strains were selected as probiotic bacteria due to their acid and bile tolerance, respectively. These strains were classified as Bacillus subtilis based on morphological, physiological, and chemotaxonomic features as well as on phylogenetic analysis based on their 16S rDNA sequences. These strains CSY191 and CSY388 showed a significant survival with rate range of 30.0 to 58.3% and of 31.0% to 58.1%, respectively, under artificial gastric acidic conditions at pH 3.0. These CSY191 and CSY388 strains appeared to have high antimicrobial activity against Salmonella Typhimurium, Bacillus cereus and Listeria monocytogenes. Also, methanol extractions (surfactin-like compounds) of strain CSY191 and strain CSY388 activated RAW264.7 microphages and induced the production of nitric oxide (NO) in a concentration-dependent manner, respectively. Therefore, strain CSY191 and strain CSY388 can be used as potential probiotics.

잠재적인 생균제제 Bacillus subtilis CSY191에 의해 제조된 국산 검정콩(서리태 및 서목태) 청국장 발효 중 ${\beta}$-glycosidase 활성, total phenolic와 isoflavone 함량 및 항산화 활성을 조사하였다. 청국장 발효 후 total phenolic 및 isoflavone-malonylgycoside와 -aglycone 함량은 증가하였고 이에 따라 ABTS 라디칼 소거활성 및 FRAP 활성은 증가하였으나 isoflavone-glycoside 함량은 감소하였다. 특히, $7^{\circ}C$에서 48시간 발효된 서리태 청국장은 서목태 원료 및 청국장보다 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 서리태 48시간 발효 후, daidzein, glycitein 및 genistein의 함량은 각각 253.0 ${\mu}g/g$ 72.5 ${\mu}g/g$ 및 114.1 ${\mu}g/g$을 나타내었다. 이 결과로부터, 검정콩 청국장의 높은 항산화 활성은 total phenolic 및 isoflavonemalonylgycoside와 -aglycone 함량 증가에 의한 것으로 추측할 수 있다.

BACKGROUND: Soybeans are the rich sources of isoflavones. To date, the changes of isoflavone contents in various black soybeans cheonggukjang during fermentation by Bacillus subtilis CSY191 has not been investigated.METHODS AND RESULTS: This study investigated the changes of total phenolic and isoflavone contents and antioxidant effects during cheonggukjang fermentation made with four black soybean (BS) cultivars including Cheongja, Cheongja#3, Geomjeong#5, and Ilpumgeomjeong with a potential probiotic Bacillus subtilis CSY191. The total phenolic contents, isoflavone-malonylglycoside and -aglycone contents, and antioxidant activity were increased in cheonggukjang at 48 h fermentation, while the content of isoflavone-glycosides was decreased during cheonggukjang fermentation. In particular, the Cheongja#3 soybean fermented at 37℃ for 48 h displayed the highest antioxidant activities, compared to those of the other BS cultivars tested. Also, the highest levels of total phenolic, daidzein, glycitein, and genistein were present at concentrations of 17.28 mg/g, 283.7 g/g, 39.9 g/g, and 13.2 g/g at the end of Cheongja#3 soybean fermentation.CONCLUSION: The results from this study suggested that the enhanced antioxidant activity of cheonggukjang of BS might be related to increased levels of total phenolic, isoflavon-aglycone, and malonyl-glycoside contents achieved during fermentation. Furthermore, fermented Cheongja#3 soybean showed the highest levels of enhanced antioxidant activities than the other BS cultivars.
