Cholesterol Lowering Activity of Ropy Fermented Milk

Abstract

ABSTRACT The effect of ropy fermented milk on serum cholesterol in rats was studied. Basic diets containing slime‐forming Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris SBT 0495, its non slime‐forming variant SBT 1275, and acidified reconstituted skim milk, with 0.5% cholesterol added, were fed to F‐344 rats for 7 days. Serum cholesterol level of rats fed the ropy fermented milk were the lowest among the three treatments. The serum high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio of rats fed ropy fermented milk was the highest. Slime materials produced by L. lactis subsp. cremoris SBT 0495 had a beneficial effect on rat cholesterol metabolism.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Significant improvements of HDL cholesterol and HDL to total cholesterol ratio were observed compared to a control group fed with milk fermented with a non-EPS-producing strain.

    “Significant improvements of HDL cholesterol and HDL to total cholesterol ratio were also observed when compared to the control group fed with milk fermented with a non-EPS-producing strain.”
  • EPS produced by Lb. lactis ssp. cremoris SBT0495 in fermented milk exhibited a positive effect on reducing cholesterol when fed to experimental hypercholesterolemic rats.

    “EPS, produced by Lb. lactis ssp. cremoris SBT0495 in fermented milk, exhibited a positive effect on reducing cholesterol when fed to experimental hypercholesterolemic rats [134].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
