The use of jerusalem artichoke (helianthus tuberos-us l.) As a component of the nutrient solution

Abstract

In this paper we present the studies of various Jerusalem artichoke fractions, which can be successfully used as a component of nutrient media for the growth of acidophilic lactobacilli. The dependence of the growth of acidophilic microflora on the introduction of a fraction of carbohydrates, organic acids, amino acids from Jerusalem artichoke as stimulants has been revealed. The minimal stimulating concentrations of carbohydrates, organic acids, amino acids are determined, for all fractions they are 0.25%. The growth of bacteria in this case is 9.5%, 6%, 4.3%, respectively, compared with the control environment. According to the results of the study, it was shown that the isolated fractions exert a stimulating effect on the growth and development of microorganisms when adding to the culture medium. In this case, the most effective fraction is the carb of Jerusalem artichoke.
