Abstract:In this study, 14 Streptococcus strains were isolated from sourdough bread, white silk mustard, pickles and cucumber sauce. Among those strains, four strains marked as HsS5, HsS6, HsS8, HsS9 could be used for the fermentation of the walnut milk after acid feature test, and they were identified as Streptococcus thermophilus through their morphologic, physiological biochemical characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequence. The scores of sensory evaluation of these fermented walnut milks produced by HsS5, HsS6, HsS8, HsS9 with Lactobacillus acidophilus LA were 96, 91, 93, 86, respectively. Moreover, the contents of nine kinds of amino acid were found increased at different degrees in these four kinds fermented walnut milk, especially in HsS5, increased most significantly from 0.67% to 1.75%. According to the above results, strain HsS5 was more valuable for fermented walnut milk production than other strains.
