    Abstract:
    The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast strains with phytate degrading ability were isolated from Iranian traditional sourdough, and based on the acid and bile tolerance, three LAB and three yeast strains were selected and molecularly identified. In this study, baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was considered as a positive control strain to investigate the nutritional and technological properties of the isolated strains. All of the identified microorganisms were characterized based on additional probiotic properties and were evaluated for nutritional and technological characteristics. The functional features are associated with degradation of phytate, antioxidant capacity, exopolysaccharides, phenolic compound content and in vitro starch digestion. Among all the tested strains the highest amount of phytase production capacity (1.64 Unit/ml) and lowest phytate content (17.49 mg/5 g) belonged to Kluyveromyces marxianus. According to the results, the bread prepared by using Kluyveromyces aestuarii possessed the highest porosity percentage (70.43%), and the lowest hardness (508.71 g).
