Abstract

Kombucha i kefir su tradicionalni fermentirani napitci dobiveni djelovanjem združenih kultura bakterija octene, mliječne kiseline i kvasaca. U ovom je radu proučavan uzgoj kokulture kombuche i kefirnih zrnaca na crnom čaju te je tijekom uzgoja praćena promjena pH vrijednosti, koncentracije etanola, octene, glukonske i mliječne kiseline u aerobnim uvjetima uzgoja tijekom 12 dana. Određen je i prinos bakterijske celuloze sintetizirane u kokulturi kefirnih zrnaca i kombuche. Međudjelovanje... More mikroorganizama u kokulturi može pozitivno i negativno djelovati na metaboličke funkcije, sintezu organskih spojeva i bakterijske celuloze. Sniženje pH vrijednosti je rezultat metaboličkih aktivnosti kvasaca i bakterija octene i mliječne kiseline. Debljina i prinos bakterijske celuloze su se povećavali tijekom fermentacije. Less

Abstract (english)

Kombucha and kefir are traditional fermented drinks produced by adding symbiotic cultures of acetic and lactic acid bacteria, and yeast to medium. This work studies cultivation of coculture kombucha and kefir grains in black tea in aerobic conditions over a period up to 12 days and observes changes in pH value, ethanol, acetic acid, gluconic acid and lactic acid concentration. Yeald of bacterial cellulose in coculture of kombucha and kefir grains was also determined. Possible... More interactions of microorganisms in coculture can have positive or negative impact on metabolic functions, organic acid production and bacterial cellulose synthesis. Changes in pH were related to the symbiotic metabolic activities of yeasts and acetic or lactic acid bacteria.The thickness and yield of bacterial cellulose obtained increased with fermentation time.
