Growth Kinetics of Lactobacillus plantarum in Sesame Seed Protein Extract Media

This study investigates the useful of protein-rich extract from sesame seed as only source nourishment for development lactic acid bacteria. Unstructured mathematical and Gompertz model were proposed part screening process to characterize growth, production, pH drop, nutrient consumption by Lactobacillus plantarum in defatted order compare their appropriateness manufacture a fermented beverage. medium contains significant amount nutrient, which allowed L. proliferate before its cell counts began decline. The largest biomass reached (0.4506 g L−1). was increased nearly 4 times protein extract. However, there 79.51% drop sugar content 23.83% decrease level. findings this suggest that fermentation employing has potential lead creation variety functional meals.
