Strains of Lactobacillus sakei. Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus plantarum dominated in fermented white kimchi.
By in vitro tests, strains L. plantarum HAC01 and L. sakei HAC10 were selected.
These strains significantly reduced body and total weight gain of DIO mice, compared to the control.
Dominating LAB strains may determine functionality of kimchi.
