    Abstract:
    Three commercial lactic acid bacteria (LAB), namely Lactobacillus acidophilus 85 (La85), Lactobacillus helveticus 76 (Lh76) and Lactobacillus plantarum 90 (Lp90), were employed to investigate the effects on the phenolic compounds, antioxidant capacities and flavor volatiles of kiwifruit juices prepared from two cultivars (Actinidia deliciosa cv. Xuxiang and Actinidia chinensis cv. Hongyang). Results showed that both kiwifruit juices were favorable matrices for LAB growth and the colony counts remained above 9.0 log CFU/mL after fermentation. Total phenolics and flavonoids in Xuxiang and Hongyang juices were increased dramatically by Lh76. Correspondingly, antioxidant capacities based on DPPH, ABTS and FRAP methods were improved significantly and positively correlated with protocatechuic acid and catechin contents (p < 0.05), two newly formed phytochemicals in fermented kiwifruit juices. Furthermore, results of hierarchical cluster analysis revealed that flavor profiles were improved significantly by LAB, and there were noticeable differences between fermented Xuxiang and Hongyang juices.
