  • This study was performed to develop a functional stirred yoghurt prepared from skim milk added with loquat(Eriobotrya japonica Lindley). Skim milk containing $15\%$ loquat extract was fermented by the mixed strains of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus acidophilus, and then loquat flesh and oligosaccharide were added to the yoghurt base. Sensory scores of the stirred yoghurt containing $15\%$ loquat flesh and $20\%$ oligosaccharide were higher than other groups in sweet taste, sour taste and overall acceptability. When the levels of oligosaccharide of the stirred yoghurts added with $15\%$ loquat flesh were increased, the L value(brightness) and a value (redness) of the stirred yoghurt decreased, but the b value(yellowness) increased. The hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and resilience of the $15\%$ loquat flesh stirred yoghurt added with $20\%$ oligosaccharide were higher than others.

  • Tissue factor (TF, tissue thromboplastin) is a membrane bound glycoprotein, which acceler-ates the blood clotting, activating both the intrinsic and the extrinsic pathways to serve as a cofactor for activated factor VII (Vila). The TF-factor Vila complex (TF/VIIa) proteolytically activates factors IX and X, which leads to the generation of thrombin and fibrin clots. In order to isolate TF inhibitors, by means of a bioassay-directed chromatographic separation technique, from the leaves of Eriobotrya japonica Lindley (Rosaceae), a known sesquiterpene glycoside (2) and ferulic acid (3) were isolated as inhibitors that were evaluated using a single-clotting assay method for determining TF activity. Another sesquiterpene glycoside (1) was also isolated but was inactive in the assay system. Compound 3 was yielded by alkaline hydrolysis of compound 2. The structures of compounds 1, 2, and 3 were identified by means of spectral analysis as $3-O-{\alph}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-a-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-[{\alph}-L-rhamnopyrano-syl-(1{\rightarrow}6)]-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl nerolidol$ (1), $3-O-{\alph}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-{\alph}-L-rhamnopyr-anosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-[{\alph}-L-(4-trans-feruloyl)-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}6)]-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl$ nerolidol (2) and ferulic acid (3), respectively. Compounds 2 and 3 inhibited 50% of the TF activity at con-centrations of 2 and $369{\;}\mu\textrm{m}/TF$ units, respectively.

  • This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindley) extract on the acid production and growth of lactic culture in reconstituted skim milk. The supplementation level of loquat extract to reconstituted skim milk was 10%, 15% and 20%. Reconstitued skim milk containing loquat extract was fermented by single of mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei. General compositions of loquat extract, changes of viable cell count, pH and titratable acidity during fermentation were determined. Chemical compositions of loquat extract were 91.5% moisture, 0.2% crude ash, 8.6$^{\circ}$ Brix soluble sugar, 0.34% total acid, and 4.11 in pH. Supplementation of loquat extract stimulated acid roduction and growth of lactic acid bacteria. Among supplementation levels, a group that was fermented by a single culture of Str. thermophilus with 10% loquat extract was shown the highest viable cell count (2.10${\times}$10$\^$9/ CFU/mL) at 12 hours after inoculation. When loquat extract was added to reconstituted skim milk at the level of 10%, all mixed cultures of lactic acid bacteria showed higher acid production and the number of viable cell count than 3 kinds of single cultures. Especially, the growth of mixed culture of Str. thermophilus and Lac. acidophilus was promoted by the addition of 10% loquat extract. Therefore, it was suggested to manufacture the yoghurt with the addition of 10% loquat extract and the inoculation of mixed culture of Str. thermophilus and Lac. acidophilus for on the stimulation of growth of the lactic culture.

  • In this study, we evaluated the physicochemical, microbial, and sensory characteristics of Makgeolli made with loquat fruits during fermentation. The pH values of all samples decreased after 3 days of fermentation, with a final pH ranging from 3.91 to 4.05. Total acidity increased (from 0.71 to 0.76%) from the addition of loquat fruits after 15 days of fermentation. Amino acid content increased (from 0.13 to 0.22%) with fermentation time after 15 days of fermentation. Total sugar and reducing sugar content decreased with fermentation, but was significantly higher with the addition of loquat fruit. The alcohol content of the loquat-added groups was also higher compared to the control group after 15 days of fermentation. The microbial and yeast count of all samples increased to its maximum after 3 days and then decreased after 5 days of fermentation. The sensory score of Makgeolli made with 3% loquat fruit showed higher values than other samples. The results of this study suggest that loquat effectively serves as a natural additive for improving the sensory qualities of Makgeolli and potentially other foods.

  • Quality characteristics of curd yoghurt containing loquat extract were evaluated in terms of sensory properties and quality-keeping properties(number of viable cells, pH, titratable acidity). Curd yoghurts were prepared from $10\%(w/v)$ skim milk added with $10\~20\%(v/v)$ loquat extract and fermented by the mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus acidophilus(1:1) at $37^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours. The results of sensory evaluation of curd yoghurts indicated that flavor, sweet taste, sour taste, aftertaste and overall acceptability of the curd yoghurts with addition of loquat extract showed higher preference than a curd yoghurt with only skim milk. And the curd yoghurt containing $15\%$ loquat extract added $20\~25\%(w/v)$ oligosaccharide had the higher sensory scores in sweet taste, sour taste, aftertaste and overall acceptability among the treatments. When the curd yoghurts added with $15\%$ loquat extract were kept at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ for 31 days, the number of viable cell counts of the lactic acid bacteria were slightly higher than those in the curd yoghurt with no addition of loquat extract. And also the pH and titratable acidity of all yoghurts were not significantly changed during the storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 31 days, while the pH and titratable acidity were remarkedly changed during the yoghurts stored at $20^{\circ}C$ for 31 days. The keeping quality of the curd yoghurts with addition of $15\%$ loquat extract was relatively good at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ for 31 days.
