The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of kimchi prepared with a single starter culture of biogenic amines (BA)-forming lactic acid bacteria (LAB) or a combined starter cultures composed of BA-forming and BA-degrading LAB. As the fermentation proceeded, the lactic acid bacterial count, titratable acidity, and BA content in kimchi prepared with myeolchi-aekjeot were slightly higher than those of kimchi prepared with saeu-jeot. The amount and type of BA produced by LAB were mostly strain dependent rather than species specific. Among all of the isolated LAB strains, the highest levels of cadaverine, histamine, putrescine and tyramine were produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides MBK32, Lactobacillus brevis MBK34, Lactobacillus curvatus MBK31 and Enterococcus faecalis SBK31, respectively. BA-forming and BA-degrading starter cultures played an important role in the growth rate and organic acid-producing ability of LAB in kimchi. Interestingly, BA contents in kimchi increased by adding single BA-forming LAB starter were effectively lowered by the mixed cultures with BA-degrading LAB.

Jangsu, a Korean ancient non-alcoholic beverage made by lactic acid fermentation of cooked rice, was prepared and the microbial characteristics were investigated. The periodic removal of fermented product and the addition of newly made cooked rice and cold water as new substrate enhanced the growth of lactic acid forming bacteria but supressed the growth of proteolytic bacteria. The important microorganisms in jangsu were Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Pediococccus and Leuconostoc species. Lactococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus coryniformis and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were identified. The isolated strains were cultivated and used as starter culture of jangsu. Some useful strains were selected which were able to produce acceptable flavor and sufficient amount of acid lowering the pH to near 4.0.

Changes in titratable acidity, pH, viable cells, sensory properties and volatile aroma compounds of yogurt during lactic fermentation in milk added with egg white powder (EWP) have been studied. Milk added with 1% or 2% (W/V) of EWP was fermented with Lactobacillus acidophilus for 30 hr. Acidity of milk added with EAT increased gradually during lactic fermentation for 30 hr, pH dropped gradually and number of viable cells increased and reached stationary phase at about 9 hr. Addition of EWP significantly stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria and stimulating effect of 2% EWP addition on acid production was slightly higher than that of 1% EWP addition. Sensory evaluation showed that optimum fermentation time of yogurt prepared from milk added with 2% of EWP was about 15 hr. Gas chromatographic analysis showed that the amount of acetone and butanol decreased gradually and that of ethanol increased until 30 hr. Diacetyl and acetoin were first detected after 6hr and 9hr, respectively, and then increased until 30 hr.

The grape cultivar Campbell Early has high levels of malic acid as well as tartaric acid. The high concentration of total acid in the Campbell Early wine is a critical aspect of the wine's sensory characteristics. To prevent the deterioration of the wine's quality, which is caused by the strong sour taste derived from the raw material in wine making, the deacidification factor was investigated via carbonic maceration under different temperature conditions, especially in the presence or absence of malolactic bacteria. Based on the results of the presence test of the malolactic bacteria during carbonic-maceration treatment, Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Streptococcus thermophilus were characterized morphologically and were identified via biochemical tests and 16S-rRNA-gene-sequencing analysis. The isolated strains were found not to consume malic acid and to produce lactic acid. Moreover, these strains were consumed as soluble solids. The isolated strains are popularly known as lactic-acid bacteria and should have produced lactic acid from glucose. The Oenococcus oeni of the malolactic bacteria was not isolated. These results showed that the isolated strains are not deacidified during carbonic-maceration treatment.

Lactobacillus acidophilus exhibited more growth and produced greater amounts of acid in the soy milk than Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and Lactobacillu helveticus examined. The supplementation of the soy milk with glucose accelerated the growth of L. acidophilus, and enhanced acid production by L. acidophilus whereas sucrose addition was without effect. The supplementation of the soy milk containing five percent glucose with a methionine accelerated the growth of L. acidophilus, and enhannced acid production by L. acidophilus. L. acidophilus showed greater population in the soy milk containing five percent glucose which was treated with 0.0008％ protease (9.40$\times$10$^{8}$ /m/) than the soy milk containing five percent glucose (2.02$\times$10$^{9}$ /ml) moreover L. acidophilus produced greater amounts of acid in the soy milk containing five percent glucose which was treated with 0.0008％ protease (1.47 ％) than in the soy milk containing five percent glucose (0.56％)

The effects of various heat treatments of soy milk prepared from soy protein concentrate on growth and acid production by five species of lactic acid bacteria were investigated. Sensory property and sedimentation characteristics of soy yogurt prepared from heat-treated soy milk were also evaluated. Heat treatment of soy milk stimulated acid production by all cultures. Acid production was generally proportional to degree of heat treatment and acid production by all cultures except Streptococcus lactis was maximum in soy milk heated at $121^{\circ}C-1min$. However, viable cell count was not changed markedly by heat treatment of soy milk. Sensory property of soy yogurt beverage (SYB) prepared from soy milk heated at $95^{\circ}C-30min$ was better than that of unheated sample while sensory property of SYB prepared from soy milk heated at $121^{\circ}C-15min$ was inferior to that of unheated sample. Heat treatment of soy milk generally retarded sedimentation of curd in SYB.

In oder to acquire microbial agents that can be utilized for control of aflatoxin produced by Aspergillus. flavus and Asp. parasiticus, antifungal bacteria were isolated. Antifungal bacteria was identified as Bacillus spp. based on morphology and physico-biochemical characteristics. Amount of aflatoxin $B_1$ from Doenjang(soybean paste) prepared with Asp. flavus, Asp. parasiticus, antifungal bacteria(Bacillus sp.), or mixture of Asp. flavus and Asp. parasiticus was 27.2 ppb, 30.3 ppb, 3.4 ppb, and 3.7 ppb, respectively. Aflatoxin $B_1$ was not detected from Doenjang(control) and Doenjang prepared with antifungal bacteria. Content and compositions of free sugars, fatty acid, organic acid and free amino acid in Doenjang prepared with Asp. flavus and Asp. parasiticus, antifungal bacteria and mixture of Asp. flavus and Asp. parasiticus were not significantly different. For volatile flavor compounds of Doenjang prepared with antifungal bacteria, 2-pentyl furan and butanoic acid were disappeared or reduced, while octadecene compounds were produced. However, those of Doenjang prepared with Asp. flavus or Asp. parasiticus and Doenjang(control) were not significantly different. These results suggested that the antifungal bacteria(Bacillus sp.) inhibited production of aflatoxin and that antifungal bacteria did not effect the quality of Doenjang.

The soy milk prepared from soy protein concentrate was treated with pretense of various concentrations. Growth and acid production by Lactobacillus acidophilus or L. bulgaricus in soy milk containing partially hydrolyzed protein were investigated. Sensory evaluation of soy yogurt beverages prepared from pretense treated soy milk was also performed. The treatment of soy milk with pretense markedly enhanced acid production by lactic acid bacteria, particularly by L. acidophilus, whereas pH and number of viable cells were not .affected by pretense treatment. Protease treatment of 15 minutes greatly enhanced acid production by lactic acid bacteria, but further treatment up to three hours did not affect the acidity markedly. The sensory evaluation showed that overall acceptability of soy yogurt beverages was slightly improved when soy milk was treated with pretense of 0.1%. The amount of non-protein nitrogen was considerably increased by pretense treatment of 15 minutes and it reached the maximum value by treatment of two hours.

The curd yogurt was prepared from milk or milk added with skim milk powder or soy proteins. Acid production by lactic acid bacteria in milk containing additive of 2% was investigated and quality of curd yogurt(sensory property and keeping quality) was examined. Some organic acids in curd yogurt were analyzed by HPLC. The soy proteins, particularly defatted soy flour or soy flour, stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria more than skim milk powder. Among the four organisms tested, Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Lactobacillus bulgaricus produced more acid than L. casei and L. delbrueckii. HPLC analysis of organic acids in curd yogurt showed that the amount of lactic acid and acetic acid markedly increased during the fermentation by L. bulgaricus for 24 hours while the amount of citric acid markedly decreased. The major organic acid produced during the fermentation was lactic acid. Addition of soy proteins to milk reduced sensory property of curd yogurt. Among the soy proteins tested, soy protein concentrate or soy protein isolate added sample showed better sensory acceptability than other samples. When curd yogurt was kept at $5^{\circ}C$ for two weeks, titratable acidity, pH and number of viable cells of curd yogurt were not changed.
