Abstract

Well-defined compositional assemblies of plant-based yogurt are of fast-growing awareness for world population concerning environmental sustainability, economic burdens and health risks. Soybean is an attractive candidate for plant yogurt, suffering from poor flavor, limited nutrition, and undesired allergens to offer healthy-functional segments. Herein, we deciphered a novel lycopene-soy yogurt by efficient two-stage fermentation of engineered B. subtilis and LAB. The fortified sogurt was ensured with redundant lycopene of 22.67 ± 2.95 mg/g DCW by engineered B. subtilis and enriched soy isoflavone from synergistic effects of engineered B. subtilis and LAB, possessing strong antioxidant capacity for upgrading functionality. Moreover, the desired pH, accelerated protein hydrolysis, enhanced amino acid availability, and expected sensory attributes cooperatively conferred lycopene-soy yogurt as healthy functional food. High potential is firstly ascribed to sequential dual culture of engineered B. subtilis and LAB in lycopene-soy yogurt, in which flavorful, hypoallergenic and antioxidative ingredients enabled functionalities for plant-based yogurt.
