The ability to use lactose is critical for the application of Streptococcus thermophilus in fermented dairy products. Most studies have evaluated the use of lactose of S. thermophilus by measuring lactose utilization, but its correlation with beta-galactosidase and urease has rarely been investigated. In this study, 10 strains of S. thermophilus isolated from fermented yak milk exhibited a diversity of beta-galactosidase and urease activities, growth, and acid production in de Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe-lactose. Among the strains, 15G5 possessed the highest beta-galactosidase activity arid showed the highest cell growth, lactic acid production, and titratable acidity during fermentation. In contrast, 7G10, with the weakest beta-galactosidase activity, produced the lowest lactic acid content arid change in titratable acidity. Further investigation indicated that beta-galactosidase activity of S. thermophilus showed significant positive correlations with the growth of cell densities, the production of lactic acid, and titratable acidity, arid urease activity of S. thermophilus showed a significant correlation with the use of lactose and the production of lactic acid and acetaldehyde. These findings suggest that the differences of beta-galactosidase arid urease activities are essential for the performance in the lactose metabolism, growth, and acid production of S. thermophilus, providing new insights into strain selection and application.
