Relevance. The problem of reducing immunity and the susceptibility of modern humanity to various infectious diseases is becoming more acute every year. One of the main reasons for this is an increase in the chemicalization of nutrition, a narrowing of the spectrum of natural and naturally fermented foods consumed and, in this regard, a violation of the composition of natural human microbiomes. Focusing only on the search for new antimicrobial agents only temporarily solves the problem of infectious diseases, seriously aggravating it over time due to the emergence of antibiotic- and drug-resistant microorganisms. Restoring the body's natural resistance to infections, in particular by modifying nutrition, is the most effective approach to solving the problem.
The functional and biotechnological properties of lactic acid bacteria are generally recognized and are constantly updated with new scientific data. The use of acetic acid bacteria is mainly limited to the production of vinegar, vitamin C, cellulose and certain fermented products of natural fermentation, characterized by high healing properties. Acetic acid bacteria have been attracting more and more attention in recent years due to the expansion of research on the healing properties of various types of vinegar and products of natural fermentations occurring with their participation. The antiglycemic, antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, antihypertensive, mycotoxin-binding effects of various metabolic products and components of acetic acid bacteria cells have been proven.
The project is aimed at developing new ways of using acetic acid bacteria to produce functional fermented dairy and vegetable products of widespread use.

The aim of the project is to develop new ways of using acetic acid bacteria for fermentation of dairy and vegetable raw materials to obtain functional products that contribute to the improvement of the population and increase nonspecific resistance to infections.

- or at least 1 (one) article or review in a peer-reviewed scientific publication included in the 1st (first) or 2nd (second) quartile in the Web of Science database and (or) having a CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database of at least 65 (sixty-five) and at least 1 (one) patent, included in the Derwent Innovations Index database (Web of Science, Clarivate Analytics);
- or at least 1 (one) article or review in a peer-reviewed scientific publication that is included in the 1st (first) quartile in the Web of Science database and (or) having a CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database of at least 80 (eighty);
2 applications for an invention (1 for a new consortium and 1 for a method for obtaining a fermented product) will be submitted to the Kazakhstan Patent Office.
A technological instruction for the production of liquid starter culture will be developed.

Achieved results (for the first half of 2021):
- 18 isolates of lactic acid bacteria, 32 isolates of acetic acid bacteria, 6 isolates of yeast were isolated.
- 30 out of 32 isolates of acetic acid bacteria showed a good growth rate on a dense and liquid GYC medium. Morphological indicators of the growth of acetic acid bacteria on two media GYC and MRS were determined. It is shown that MRS is optimal from these media for the isolation of acetic acid bacteria from mixed cultures with lactic acid bacteria. GYC medium was selected as the optimal nutrient medium for the cultivation of acetic acid bacteria in pure culture at this stage of the study.
- Selection of isolated microorganisms according to biotechnologically valuable indicators has begun. All isolates of lactic acid bacteria showed good coagulation of cow's milk during 24 hours of cultivation at 37 ° C.
- Antagonistic activity of lactic acid bacteria isolates against gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms was determined. Against E. coli, 7 isolates showed high antagonistic activity, against S. enteritidis – 8, S. aureus – 8, S. flava – 5, Pseudomonas sp. – 3 isolates. Isolates 3k-10, 3k-11, 3k-18, 3k-20, 4k-1 and 4k-2 showed antagonistic activity against 3-5 test microorganisms.
- All 6 yeast isolates showed the ability to grow on lactose.

The article summarizes the data on the probiotic potential of acetic acid bacteria. Centuries-old indications of the medicinal properties of various types of vinegar and mixed fermentation products obtained with the participation of acetic acid bacteria are confirmed in modern scientific studies of these microorganisms. Recent data on the probiotic properties of acetic acid bacteria indicate an increase in their use in the food industry to obtain functional foods and improve public health.

In our studies, the presence of pronounced antagonism against conditionally pathogenic yeast of the genus Candida was shown in associations of lactic acid and acetic acid bacteria isolated from koumiss. The combination of bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria with acetic acid bacteria in the composition of associations contributes to the manifestation of pronounced antibacterial and antifungal activity and can be effectively used to suppress the excessive development of opportunistic microorganisms in food and dysbiosis.
