GROWTH IMPROVEMENT OF LACTOBACILLUS ACIDOPHILUS BY JUICE OF PLEROTUS SAPIDUS / 微生物学通报

The present study shows that mushroom juice exhibits a significanteffect on growth of L. acidophilus in reconstituted skim milk. When 5% - 10% mushroom juice was added in skim milk, they shorten generation time and the rate of lactic acid production was accelerated. After 10h incubation at 37℃ cell counts of L. acidophilus in test groups were much more than in control group, were up to 108/mL.
