Influence of Lactobacillus (LAB) Fermentation on the Enhancement of Branched Chain Amino Acids and Antioxidant Properties in Bran among Wheat By-Products
Abstract:The main objective of this study was to enhance the nutritional properties, including branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), through the solid-state fermentation (SSF) of wheat bran (WB) using lactic acid bacteria (LAB). The physicochemical properties, amino acid profiles, bioactive components, and antioxidant properties of raw and sterilized WB were compared with those of WB fermented with five different LAB strains. The highest level of BCAAs, isoleucine (Ile; 2.557 ± 0.05 mg/100 g), leucine (Leu; 7.703 ± 0.40 … Show more
