Optimal heat treatment conditions for maintaining the immune-activity of immunized milk with Helicobacter pylori antigen were studied Total bacterial count of immunized milk with H. pylori antigen decreased according to the increasing heating temperature and time. The viable tell number of immunized milk was $10^3\;CFU/mL$ after heat treatment for 30 min at $60^{\circ}C$, and coliform bacteria did not appear in immunized milk after heat treatment Immune-activity measured in terms of IgG concentration was maintained up to 99.99% after heat treatment for 30min at $60^{\circ}C$, but decreased rapidly below 50% after heat treatment above $70^{\circ}C$. The quality characteristics of immunized milk were examined during storage at $2^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;10^{\circ}C$. The pH, titratable acidity and total bacterial count were not changed significantly during 21 day storage at $2^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$, but rapidly changed after 7 day storage at $10^{\circ}C$. The immune-activity was kept well for 14 day storage at $2^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;10^{\circ}C$ but decreased rapidly after 14 days at every temperatures tested.

Changes in titratable acidity, viable cells and sensory properties of curd yogurt during lactic fermentation in milk added with mugwort extract have been studied. Milk added with 5%, 10％, 15％ or 20% of mugwort extract was fermented with single or mixed culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus for 24 hours. Addition of mugwort extract markedly stimulated the acid production and propagation of lactic acid bacteria. Among the organism tested, the mixed culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus produced the highest amount of acid, and Lactobacillus bulgaricus showed the highest number of viable cell counts. Sensory property of curd yogurt added with mugwort extract was evaluated as better than reference sample(milk yogurt). The sample prepared by fermenting milk containing mugwort extract at 5% level with Lactobacillus bulgaricus showed the most favorite characteristics.

This study was performed for analyzing the general composition and the change in the quality of soymilk-derived yogurts manufactured by adding skim milk and whey powder to soymilk heat-treated at $95^{\circ}C$/5 min and $120^{\circ}C$/10 min, respectively. 1. During the storage of soymilk yogurt, the concentrations of total solids, protein, fat, and lactose slightly decreased, whereas viscosity, content of ash and NPN, and the number of lactic acid bacteria remained unchanged. 2. The pH and titratable acidity changed rapidly in all soymilk yogurts after 3 h of incubation. 3. We found $7.8{\times}10^8$ lactic acid bacteria in the control sample, $4.7{\times}10^8$ and $5.02{\times}10^8$ in soymilk yogurt with skim milk, respectively, and $5.9{\times}10^8$ and $5.5{\times}10^8$, respectively in soymilk yogurt with whey powder according to degree of heat treatment with $95^{\circ}C$/5 min and $120^{\circ}C$/10 min. 4. The viscosity of yogurt samples became lower as the heat treatment increased in temperature and in the length of time. 5. The value of sensory evaluation was relatively high in soymilk yogurt with the added skim milk, which was heat-treated $95^{\circ}C$/5 min; however, the value was significantly lower than that of the control sample. 6. Lactose, glucose, and galactose were detected in all samples because lactose is degraded into glucose and galactose within 3 h of inoculation.

The objective of this study was to identify the coccoidal bacteria present in 188 samples of fermented yaks’, mares’ and cows’ milk products collected from 12 different regions in Mongolia. Furthermore, we evaluated the fermentation properties of ten selected isolates of the predominant species, Streptococcus (S.) thermophiles, during the process of milk fermentation and subsequent storage of the resulting yoghurt at 4℃. Overall, 159 isolates were obtained from 188 samples using M17 agar. These isolates were presumed to be lactic acid bacteria based on their gram-positive and catalase-negative properties, and were identified to species level using 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. These coccoid isolates were distributed in four genera and six species: Enterococcus (E.) durans, Enterococcus (E.) faecalis, Lactococcus (Lac.) subsp. lactis, Leuconostoc (Leuc.) lactis, Leuconostoc (Leuc.) mesenteroides. subsp. mesenteroides and S. thermophilus. Among these S. thermophilus was the most common species in most samples. From evaluation of the fermentation characteristics (viable counts, pH, titratable acidity [TA]) of ten selected S. thermophilus isolates we could identify four isolates (IMAU 20246, IMAU20764, IMAU20729 and IMAU20738) that were fast acid producers. IMAU20246 produced the highest concentrations of lactic acid and formic acid. These isolates have potential as starter cultures for yoghurt production.

The effects of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder on the growth of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were investigated in order to explore the possibility of manufacturing fermented milk containing the powder. Differences in pH, acidity, LAB counts, viscosity, and sensory evaluation were measured. Also the effects of dietary supplementation on the growth of piglets were evaluated by feeding fermented milks containing 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, and 1.0% Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder. Levels of pH, titratable acidity, viable LAB counts and viscosity were significantly different by the addition of the powder. When fermented milks containg 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.0% Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder were kept at $4^{\circ}C$ for 30 days, viable LAB counts remained high after 30 days of storage. The effects of dietary supplementation of 0.2% Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten fermented milk were investigated by examining piglet growth rate and fecal ammonia gas release. The piglets were fed 100g/herd of the fermented milk for 14 days. Average daily body weight gain was significantly (p<0.05) improved (110%) with dietary supplementation of the fermented milk, compared to a control group. More over, fecal ammonia gas emissions were reduced by dietary supplementation of the Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten fermented milk. Sensory evaluation results showed that the samples containing 0.1% and 0.2% Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten powder had the most parameters similar to those of the control.

This study was attempted to prepare milk and soymilk containing high number of viable cells of bifidobacteria during the fermentation as well as to establish the optimum condition for bacteria growth. Activity of ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}-galactosidase$ produced by bifidobacteria was also determined. Milk and soymilk inoculated with Bifidobacterium longum ATCC 15707 were incubated in a nitrogen-carbon dioxide atmosphere at $37^{\circ}C$ for two days. and time courses of pH, acidity, viable cells and effect of growth factors were determined. After two days, pH of milk gradually decreased from 6.81 to 4.84 and pH of soymilk changed from 7.02 to 3.89. The viable cell numbers of bifidobacteria increased constantly in soymilk, while bacterial growth in milk appeared to be delayed after storage of two days. Both of ${\alpha}$- and ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activities were detected in soymilk, but activity of ${\beta}-galactosidase$ was predominant in milk. Fucosyllactose appeared to be a good growth factor in soymilk. During the fermentation of milk, L-cysteine HCl enhanced growth of bifidobacteria at the early stage and fucosyllactose was a good growth factor in the propagations of bifidobacteria from middle stage.

As a way of improving the texture and flavor of soybean cheese, whey-say cheeses were made by coprecipitation of various mixtures of whey, whey powder, soy milk and soy protein powder, and mixed culture of str. lactis, str. cremoris and rennet were added, then the cheeses were cured at $15^{\circ}C$ for up to 10 weeks. Physicochemical characteristics of the cheese were investigated by analyzing pH, titratable acidity(TA), water soluble nitrogen, 10% TCA soluble nitrogen, amino acid composition, beany flavor, color and hardness. The pH of whey-soy cheeses during ripening changed from 5.3 to 4.2 after 5 or 6 weeks and maintained that value while that of soybean cheese maintained a higher pH value. TA of whey-soy milk cheeses was gradually increased to the value of 0.4-0.45 after 8 weeks, but that of soybean cheese reached only 0.2 after the same period. Water soluble and 10% TCA soluble-nitrogen increased steadily during ripening. Hardness of the whey-soy milk cheeses reached maximum after three weeks of ripening and greatest at those made from 3 : 1 mixture of whey and soy milk and that from soymilk. Color of the whey-soy milk chesses was lighter than that of soybean cheese. The bean flavor of soybean cheese was strong and persistent for the whole ripening period. Acid flavor was dominant in the whey-so milk cheese and masked the beany flavor partially.

The curd yogurt was prepared from milk or milk added with skim milk powder or four types of rice powder. Acid production by lactic acid bacteria in milk containing additive of 2% (w/v) was investigated and quality of curd yogurt (sensory property and keeping quality) was examined. Some organic acids in curd yogurt were analyzed by HPLC. Four types of rice powder, particularly brown rice, stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria more than control (milk yogurt). Among four organisms tested, Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Lactobacillus bulgaricus produced more acid than L. casei and L. delbrueckii. HPLC analysis of organic acids in curd yogurt showed that the amount of lactic acid markedly increased during the fermentation by L. bulgaricus for 24 hours while the amount of citric acid markedly decreased. Addition of rice powders to milk slightly reduced sensory property of curd yogurt. Among four types of rice powder tested, tongil rice added sample showed better sensory acceptability than other samples. When curd yogurt was kept at $5^{\circ}C$ for two weeks, acidity and number of viable cells of curd yogurt were not changed.
