摘要

Synbiotic-fermented soymilk offers potential benefits by combining soymilk, probiotics, and prebiotics. This study assessed the effects of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) supplementation on the quality characteristics of soymilk fermented with Levilactobacillus brevis VTCC 10397. The results showed that viable cell counts and physicochemical characteristics remained unaffected by FOS supplementation during fermentation. In contrast, FOS supplementation (3 and 5%) significantly improved probiotic viability, increased titratable acidity, and decreased pH after 21 days of refrigerated storage. Consequently, viscosity, water-holding capacity, and textural properties were enhanced. Furthermore, supplementation with 3 and 5% FOS significantly increased total phenolic and flavonoid contents, thereby elevating reducing power and radical scavenging activity. Thus, soymilk fermented with L. brevis VTCC 10397 and FOS demonstrates potential as a functional food with enhanced antioxidant properties.
