THE STUDY OF LACTIC ACID BACTERIA OF THE GENUS LACTOCOCCUS ISOLATED FROM SHUBAT FROM VARIOUS REGIONS

Camel farming is a traditionally established branch of animal husbandry in Kazakhstan. Camel farming is of great national economic importance in the economic development of vast territories of Kazakhstan, half of which are located in desert and semi-desert regions. Camel milk and products based on it are a source of valuable probiotic bacteria. The national drink made from camel milk shubat has no analogues among animal products, either in terms of food or medicine. According to its biological properties, shubat is not only a nutritious and tasty product, but also a source of various biologically active substances. In this research article, Lactococcus lactic acid bacteria strains from various geographical regions of Kazakhstan were studied. Fur coats from farms in Atyrau, Almaty, Aktobe, Kyzylorda regions were taken for research, first their organoleptic properties were revealed. The physiological and biochemical properties of isolated Lactococcus strains have been studied. Due to the similarity of the properties of Lactococcus strains isolated from the samples of the studied fur coats, they were divided into 3 groups. The peculiarities of carbohydrate fermentation of these strains and the peculiarities of growth at different temperatures have been revealed. Studies have also been conducted on the number of species, species composition and frequency of occurrence of Lactococcus strains isolated from chubat in various regions.
