Probiotic Potential and Technological Properties of Bacteriocinogenic Lactococcus lactis Subsp. Lactis UTNGt28 from a Native Amazonian Fruit as a Yogurt Starter Culture.

ABSTRACT: A native Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis UTNGt28 (GenBank accession no: MG675576.1) isolated from Amazonian fruit of the tropical Caimitillo (Chrysophyllum oliviforme) tree and the commercial strain Lactococcus lactis subsp lactis ATCC11454 (LacAT) were targeted ex vitro in whole milk in combination with Streptococcus thermophilus ATCC19258 to obtain a fermented probiotic beverage. Concomitant with cell viability determination during storage (28 days), the pH, titratable acidity, syneresis, protein and fat were evaluated. The results indicated that neither UTNGt28 nor LacAT displayed a high capacity to ferment whole milk and survive during storage; a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) in cell viability was registered for UTNGt2
