Background: Lipases have emerged as essential biocatalysts, having the ability to contribute to a wide range of industrial applications. Microbial lipases have garnered significant industrial attention due to their stability, selectivity, and broad substrate specificity. In the previous study, a unique lipolytic bacterium (Micrococcus luteus EMP48-D) was isolated from tempeh.

Functional properties of proteins, such as emulsification, foam formation and antioxidant activity, can be improved by conjugating the proteins with phenolic substances. We reported here changes in the structural, physicochemical and functional properties of Soy Protein Isolate (SPI) after conjugation with phenolic substances in the green tea and black tea extracts. Conjugation of SPI with tea extracts were conducted using alkaline treatment (pH 9.

Resistant starch type 3 (RS3) is retrograded starch which is not digested by human starch degrading enzyme, and will thus undergo bacterial degradation in the colon. The main fermentation products are the Short Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA): acetate, propionate and butyrate. SCFA has significant benefit impact on the metabolism of the host.
