BACTERIAL CELLULOSE IN KOMBUCHA BY PURE CULTURES
By ZHOU Yan, TAN Li-li, TANG Xin-yun
Strains Gluconacetobacter hansenii CGMCC1671 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae CGMCC1670 were applied to make traditional Kombucha with pure cultures to search for the optimum parameters of major factors affecting the yields and productivities of bacterial cellulose(BC) in the beverage. Six cultural ...

DETERMINATION OF THE CURVE OF GLUCOSE CONSUMPTION OF KOMBUCHA BY HPLC AND OPTIMIZATION OF CULTURE MEDIUM
By Wen-li Tian, Bao-ping Ji, Bo Li, Hong Zhang
Gluconacetobacter sp. A22 was isolated from the symbiotic culture of Kombucha made in the lab. It could produce plenty of d-Saccharich acid 1,4 lactone. Glucose was determined with HPLC. The fermentation period was confirmed for 126hby the cure of glucose consumption (The flasks were incubated ...

DIFFERENT TEMPERATURES SELECT DISTINCTIVE ACETIC ACID BACTERIA SPECIES AND PROMOTES ORGANIC ACIDS PRODUCTION DURING KOMBUCHA TEA FERMENTATION
By Francesca De Filippis, Antonio Dario Troise, Paola Vitaglione, Danilo Ercolini
Kombucha is a traditional beverage produced by tea fermentation, carried out by a symbiotic consortium of bacteria and yeasts. Acetic Acid Bacteria (AAB) usually dominate the bacterial community of Kombucha, driving the fermentative process. The consumption of this beverage was often associated ...

EFFECTS OF BLENDING WHEAT GRASS JUICE ON ENHANCING PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES OF TRADITIONAL KOMBUCHA BEVERAGE
By Tzu-Ying Sun, Jia-Shiun Li, Chinshuh Chen
Traditional kombucha is a fermented black tea extract and sugar. Sweetened black tea (10% w/v) and wheatgrass juice (WGJ) were mixed in various ratios and used as a fermentation substrate for enhancing phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. Starter, comprising of yeast (Dekkera ...

HYPOCHOLESTEROLAEMIC AND ANTIOXIDANT EFFECTS OF KOMBUCHA TEA IN HIGH-CHOLESTEROL FED MICE
By Zhiwei Yang, Baoping Ji, Feng Zhou, Bo Li, Yangchao Luo, Li Yang, Tao Li
Background: Traditional kombucha tea (TKT) is produced by mixed tea fungus. We previously proposed a Gluconacetobacter sp. A4 as the key functional strain in kombucha culture because it had a strong ability to produce D-saccharic acid-1,4-lactone (DSL, a crucial functional component in KT). ...

NOVEL NITROGEN-FIXING ACETOBACTER NITROGENIFIGENSSP. NOV., ISOLATED FROM KOMBUCHA TEA
By Debasree Dutta, Ratan Gachhui
The four nitrogen-fixing bacteria so far described in the family Acetobacteraceae belong to the genera Gluconacetobacter and Acetobacter. Nitrogen-fixing bacterial strain RG1T was isolated from Kombucha tea and, based on the phylogenetic analysis of 16S RRNA gene sequence which is supported by ...
