This study evaluated the hydrolysis of isoflavones in soymilk fermented at 37C for 48 h by four different Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium cocultures. The hydrolysis of isoflavone beta-glucosides significantly increased (P < 0.05) the bioactive aglycones from 36 to over 90% of total isoflavones in soymilk fermented with any of the four Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium cocultures as compared with unfermented soymilk. Compared with three other cocultures of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, fermentation of soymilk with the Lactobacillus paracasei/Bifidobacterium longum cocultures yielded better isoflavone hydrolytic potential (Otieno-Shah index) and the highest beta-glucosidase activity after 12 h of incubation.
