| Summary: | A high degree of hydrolysis can reduce the allergenicity of milk, while lactic acid bacteria (LAB) fermentation can further enhance the antioxidant ability of enzymatic milk. LAB with a strong antioxidant ability was screened, and the effects of LAB on the bitterness, taste and flavor of enzymatic skim milk (ESM) with a high degree of hydrolysis were investigated in this paper, in addition to the response surface methodology optimized the conditions of the LAB fermentation of ESM. The results indicate that the skim milk hydrolyzed by Protamex has a higher degree of hydrolysis and lower bitterness. The scavenging rate of 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical, the inhibition rate of hydroxyl radical (·OH) and the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> 16 and <i>Lactococcus lactis</i> subsp. <i>lactis</i> m16 are significantly higher than those of other strains (<i>p</i> < 0.05), while the improvement effect of <i>L. plantarum</i> 16 on the bitterness and flavor of ESM is better than that of <i>L. lactis</i> subsp. <i>lactis</i> m16. The fermented ESM has a strong antioxidant ability and low bitterness when the inoculum quantity of <i>L. plantarum</i> 16 is 5%, fermentation at 37 °C for 18 h and the pH of the ESM is 6.5, for which the DPPH free radical scavenging rate is 61.32%, the ·OH inhibition rate is 83.35%, the SOD activity rate is 14.58 and the sensory evaluation is 4.25. The contents of amino acids related to bitterness and antioxidants were reduced and increased, respectively. The ESM fermented by <i>L. plantarum</i> 16 has a good flavor, antioxidant ability and low bitterness. |
