As an attempt to develop new functional beverages, various ingredients including pine needle, P Japonica, C. Militaris, black tea, artemisia, cocoa, and persimmon leave tea, were used to make fermented beverages and their chemical and sensory properties were evaluated. The acidity of beverages produced was the highest in the one with C. Militaris, and the lowest in the ones with persimmon leave tea and pine needle. The pH of P Japonica beverage, 2.54, was the lowest among all. The sugar content was the highest in the one of C. Militaris and the lowest in cocoa-used one. In sensory evaluation, the fermented beverages prepared with persimmon leave tea, pine needle, and artemisia were significantly more preferable in acceptability than the others (p<.001). For purchase intention, the beverage prepared with persimmon leave tea got the highest score followed by the ones with pine needle and artemisia, and the scores of those three beverages were significantly higher than the others (p<.001). Hunter color test showed that fermented beverage added Black tea was the lowest in lightness, but the highest in redness and yet-lowness(p<.001). The beverages with high scores in sweet odor, sweet taste, and purchase intention were more favored in the sensory evaluation looking at the correlation among the sensory properties. And the lightness in color had a positive correlation, and the redness and yellowness had negative correlations with appearance quality of the beverages. Chemical properties like pH and acidity were negatively correlated with the acceptability, and the sugar content was positively correlated with sweet odor.

본 연구에서는 과실을 이용한 기능성 음료를 제조하기 위해 여러 가지 과즙을 이용하여 kefir 음료를 제조해 보았다. pH는 발효동안 감소하여 pH $4.0\sim4.2$를 나타내었으며, 숙성 후 pH $3.8\sim4.2$로 나타났다. 총산은 발효와 숙성과정 동안 지속적으로 증가였고 시유와 전지유에 startar를 5% 접종했을 때 총산은 0.8, 1.1로 나타났으며, 6% 접종구간은 1.5, 1.3으로 각각 나타났다. 발효초기 당도는 $11.7\sim11.2Brix$에서 발효 12시간 후에 $6\sim7Brix$를 떨어졌으나 숙성 동안에는 거의 변화가 없었다. 알콜함량은 $0.10\sim0.14%$로 미량이 생성되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 점도는 숙성 후 점도는 $2395\sim2488cP$로 시판요구르트 보다 낮은 점도를 나타내었는데 이것은 젖산발효에 관여하는 균주 차이로 생각된다. 관능검사 결과 사과농축액 35% 첨가구간은 향, 입안촉감, 전반적인 기호도에 높은 수치를 나타내어 선호도가 더 놓은 것으로 생각된다 따라서 kefir 발효액은 시판 요구르트와 품질이 비슷하여 음료제조에 적합한 것으로 생각되며, 과실을 이용하여 kefir 음료를 제조할 수 있는 것으로 생각된다.

Black tea extractbsupplemented with 10% sucrose was fermented by fungus at 30$\circ$C. A pellicle thick as 7$\sim$8 mm covered entire surface of the medium and the wxtract converted to acidic beverage(abbreviated below as fermented black tea) by 14 days of fermentation. It was a kind of acetic acid fermentation depending on symbiotic microorganisms. During the fermentation strains of yeasts(Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Eeniella sp.)and bacteria(Bacillus subtilis, Kurthia zopfii, Gluconobacter oxydans and Deinicoccus sp.) were isolated from aqueous layer. Contrastly to it, a bacterial strain(Acetobacter aceti) was isolated from thick pellicle. The bacteria grew as a viscouse cluster on solid agar medium differently from usual strains of A. aceti. Fermented black tea had sweet-sour taste and sweet smell.

The physicochemical properties of carrot beverage fermented by Leuconstoc mesenteroides SM isolated from carrot juice were dependent upon the sucrose concentration and beet extract content. The addition of beet extract increased the consistency index and bioconversion of sucrose in the carrot juice fortified with Phellinus linteus extract, showing the highest consistency value at 2% beet extract. The polyphenol content and antioxidant effect of fermented carrot beverage were increased as the content of beet extract increased. Particularly, the consistency of fermented carrot beverage was greatly increased by the cold storage for 120 hr. After the cold storage for 2 weeks, fermented carrot beverage fortified beet extract showed the red-purple color with higher color value (a) and the viable cell counts of $10^9$ CFU/mL.

Leuconostoc mesenteroides SM isolated from a raw carrot was used for the fermentation of carrot juice (CJ). Lactic acid fermentation of CJ was performed at $25^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr with $0{\sim}20%$ sucrose concentration, resulting in the production of mucilage. The fermented CJ showed the complete conversion of sugar into dextran after fermentation for 24 hr in the presence of sucrose below 15% concentration. With 15% sucrose, the fermented CJ had pH 3.8, 0.9% acidity, consistency index of $3.5\;Pa{\cdot}s^n$. After cold storage for 3 weeks, fermented CJ showed slight increase in acidity and relatively constant value in pH; however, the consistency index, red color value and viable cell counts were slightly decreased for 3 weeks. The ${\beta}-carotene$ content in CJ was drastically decreased by lactic acid fermentation for 24 hr, indicating $72\;{\mu}g/mL$ as compared to $142\;{\mu}g/mL$. The fermented CJ had improved body texture, red color and stability without sedimentation.

This study examined the chemical composition of lotus root and functionally evaluated a fermented lotus root drink. Electron-donating ability using DPPH along with nitrite-scavenging ability were used to compare the antioxidative activities of unfermented and fermented lotus root drinks. The electron-donating abilities of the unfermented lotus root drink (1%) and fermented lotusroot drink (1%) were 22.55% and 23.88%, respectively. At pH 6.0, the nitrite-scavenging abilities of the unfermented lotus root drink and the fermented lotus root drink (100%) were 27.64% and 40.3%, respectively, and their scavenging ability increased in a dose-dependent manner at all pH values. In order to study the anti-obesity effects of the two drinks, male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups (A: basal diet, B: high fat diet, C: high fat diet+unfermented lotus root drink, D: high fat diet+fermented lotus root drink). Net weight gains were not significantly different among the four groups. Plasma total cholesterol concentrations significantly decreased in the groups receiving the unfermented and fermented lotus root drinks. Also, plasma total lipid and triglyceride contents were lower in the groups receiving the unfermented and fermented lotus root drinks as compared to the high fat diet group; however, the differences among the three groups were not significant.

Eighty-four strains of lactic acid bacteria were isolated from Korean fermented foods for the production of fermented apple juice. Among these strains, the JBE245 strain that showed rapid growth and food functionality was selected and identified as Lactobacillus plantarum. This strain reached the stationary phase after 24 h fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$ with $1.5{\times}10^8$ colony forming unit (CFU)/mL of viable cells, and maintained its viability levels even after 14 days of storage. During fermentation, the ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ inhibitory activity (40.4%), total polyphenol content (583.6 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/mL), and 2,2-diphenyl-l-picryl-hydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (52%) were increased. As judged by a sensory test, the overall preference for the fermented juice (4.22) was comparable to that for the unfermented juice (4.72), indicating that fermentation does not significantly affect the sensory characteristics of apple juice. Consequently, the fermented beverage containing L. plantarum JBE245 and apple juice is a promising functional health food.

The fermented fruit and vegetable mixed broth was prepared by using bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria to evaluate the possibility of developing isotonic beverage with anticariogenic activity. Optimum conditions were also established to produce bacteriocin by a mixed culture system consisting of Lc. lactis and Leu. mesenteroides in a fruit and vegetable mixture. Production of bacteriocin was not observed when both strains were simultaneously innoculated, but pH adjustment of the broth fermented by Leu. mesenteroides to nearneutral pH stimulated the production of bacteriocin by Lc. lactis. The concentration of sodium of the fermented broth was higher than those of commercial products. Color change of the fermented broth was not observed during storage. The fermented broth showed strong inhibitory effect against Streptococcus mutans which is an oral inhabitant with a cariogenic activity. Bacteriocin activity in the fermented broth was retained very stable for 4 weeks at 4$\^{C}$. The results indicated that bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria can be used for the preparation of a Korean style thirst-quenching beverage containing bacteriocin.
