A new type of drinkable yoghurt was prepared to develop a functional yoghurt. Skim milk containing 0.4-1.0％(w/v) water extract of omija(Schizandra chinensis Baillon) was fermented by the mixed strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Streptococcus thermophilus. Quality characteristics of the drinkable yoghurts were evaluated in terms of compositions, keeping-quality(pH, titratable acidity, number of viable cells) and sensory properties. The drinkable yoghurts added with water extract of Schizandra chinensis were composed of 2.92-3.03％ protein, 9.98-10.23％ lactose, 0.81-1.08％ fat, 16.21-16.64％ total solid, and 14.57-15.17％ solid-not-fat. The L values(brightness) were significantly lower in the yoghurts containing water extract of Schizandra chinensis than that of the control which had no water extract of Schizandra chinensis, while the a values(redness) and b values(yellowness) were significantly higher than those of the control. The pH, titratable acidity and number of viable cells of the lactic acid bacteria of all yoghurts were not changed during the storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 15 days, while the pH and titratable acidity were remarkedly changed during the yoghurts stored at 20$^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. The drinkable yoghurts containing 0.4％(w/v) water extract of Schizandra chinensis added 15％(w/v) oligosaccharide, or 0.6％(w/v) water extract of Schizandra chinensis added 20％(w/v) oligosaccharide had the highest sensory score in taste and overall acceptability among the treatments. From the results, Schizandra chinensis was a useful natural additive with the bioactive effect by provision of a acceptable physicochemical and sensory properties in the drinkable yoghurt.

For the purpose of making a functional drinkable yoghurt, new types of drinkable yoghurts were prepared from skim milk added with 0.25％ chlorella extract powder and 2.5-10.0％ chlorella extract liquid. Quality characteristics of the drinkable yoghurts were evaluated in terms of quality-keeping property(pH, titratable acidity, number of viable cells) and sensory properties. When the drinkable yoghurts containing chlorella extract(0.25％ chlorella powder and 2.5-10.0％ chlorella extract liquid) were kept at 4$^{\circ}C$ and 20$^{\circ}C$ for 15days, the pH(pH 4.13-4.27), titratable acidity(0.66-0.75％) and number of viable cell counts of the lactic acid(8.42-8.89 log CFU/$m\ell$) were not significantly changed for all drinkable yoghurts during the storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 15days, but the pH(pH 3.53-3.56) and titratable acidity(1.30-1.37％) and number of viable cell counts(9.15-9.45 log CFU/$m\ell$) were markedly changed for the storage at 20$^{\circ}C$ for 15days. Therefor the keeping quality of the drinkable yoghurts with addition of chlorella extract was relatively good at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 15days. The results of sensory evaluation of the drinkable yoghurts containing chlorella extract indicated that color, chlorella taste, aftertaste and overall acceptability of the drinkable yoghurt with no addition of chlorella extract showed higher preference than others. And also sensory scores of the yoghurt added with 20％ oligosaccharide were significantly higher than other groups in aftertaste and overall acceptability.

For the purpose of making a new type of functional drinkable yoghurt, skim milk containing $0.5\~2.0\%$(w/v) green tea powder was fermented by the mixed stains of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Quality characteristics of the drinkable yoghurts were evaluated in terms of quality-keeping properties(number of viable cells, pH, titratable acidity) and sensory properties. When the drinkable yoghurts added with $0.5\~2.0\%$ green tea powder were kept at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ for 20 days, the number of viable cell counts of the lactic acid bacteria($2.1\times10^8\~6.2\times10^8$ CFU/mL). pH($4.16\~4.22$) and titratable acidity($0.792\~0.881\%$) were not significantly changed for all drinkable yoghurts during the storage at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ days, but the number of viable cell counts($4.2\times10^3\~1.8\times10^5$ CFU/mL), pH($3.82\~3.92$) and titratable acidity($1.057\~1.174\%$) were markedly changed f3r the storage at $20^{\circ}C$ for 20 days. Therefore the keeping quality of the drinkable yoghurts with addition of green tea powder was relatively good at $4^{\circ}C$ for 20 days. The results of sensory evaluation of the drinkable yoghurts containing peen tea powder indicated that flavor, sweet taste, mouthfeel and aftertaste of the drinkable yoghurt with $0.5\%$ green tea powder showed higher preference than others. And the drinkable yoghurt containing $0.5\% green tea powder added $20\%$(v/v) oligosaccharide had the higher sensory scores in sweet taste, aftertaste and overall acceptability among the treatments.

This study was carried out to obtain knowledges on the survival of Streptococcus mutans in the yoghurt added with green tea powder. The growth inhibition of green tea powder on the food borne pathogens and oral bacteria was measured by total microbial count, Among the tested food borne pathogens, the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enteritidis were not significantly affected by the addition of green tea powder, but green tea powder showed the growth inhibition effect on Escherichia coli O157:H7. The number of surviving Streptococcus mutans cell was decreased by $0.56\~0.99log$ cycle after 24 hem incubation by the addition of $0.5\~2.5\%$ green tea powder in the medium. And also the viable cell count of surviving Streptococcus mutans cells (initial inoculum $3.4\times10^7CFU/mL$) were decreased to $1.4\times10^4\~7.2\times10^4 CFU/mL$ after 48 hours incubation when $0.5\~2.5\%$ green tea powder were added to the drinkable yoghurt, Growth of Streptococcus mutans was strongly inhibited by the addition and incubation of green tea powder for 48 hum in the yoghurt.
