This study was conducted not only to investigate the effects of rate of addition of dried jujube to Yakju (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 percent) but also to examine the quality changes in jujube Yakju during its storage (for 75 days at $35^{\circ}C$). The results showed no significant differences in pH, total acidity, soluble solids, and anthocyanin and alcohol contents of the Yakju right after its fermentation. With the increase in the amount of jujube that was added, the lightness of the jujube Yakju changed from 93 to 94, its redness decreased, and its yellowness significantly increased. The jujube Yakju that was fermented with 1.5-percent dried jujube had high sensory evaluation (selection rate) scores for color, flavor, taste and overall acceptability. It had no significant changes in pH and total acidity during its storage after its heat treatment. Its soluble solids contents tended to decrease with its heat treatment and to increase in its storage period. With respect to its color changes during its storage, the higher the ratio of the jujube that was added, the longer the storage period was, the lightness (L) and redness (a) decreased and the yellowness (b) increased. The polyphenol contents depended on the rate of addition of the dried jujube, but were not affected by the heat treatment and storage period. The organic acids in jujube Yakju were citric acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, malic acid and acetic acid.

Quality changes of filter-sterilized Yakju were examined by filtration of Yakju through membranes followed by storing at $25^{\circ}C$ for 50 days. To evaluate quality changes of filter-sterilized Yakju, pH, titratable acidity, turbidity, and viable cell numbers of total bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and yeast were measured. Titratable acidity, turbidity and viable cell numbers of non-sterilized Yakju increased, but pH profile decreased during the storage. In filter-sterilized Yakju, titratable acidity and turbidity did not change, while viable cells of total bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and yeast were not detected during the storage. Addition of chitosan at the concentration of 0.1% (w/v) decreased the viable cell numbers significantly showing similar pH and titratable acidity profiles with non-sterilized Yakju.

The purpose of this study was to analyze consumer consumption and product concept demands of Korean rice-wine. An online survey, conducted from April 28, 2010 to May 6 2010, targeted 200 consumers in Seoul and the Gyeonggi-do area. More than half of the respondents (51.3%) drank rice-wine because of the taste. The common reasons for dissatisfaction with rice-wine were hangovers (35.7%) and taste (16.9%). From analyzing rice-wine preferences, the most preferred ingredient was rice (57.8%), while the most preferred aroma and taste was derived from the fruit (48.7% and 58.4%, respectively). The most common methods consumers observed for promoting rice-wine consumption were the "development and management of rice-wine brands" (59.7%), and "continuous promotion" (44.8%). The most important attributes of a rice-wine product included its taste (4.60), followed by its quality (4.41) using 5-point Likert scale. An importance-performance analysis (IPA) was performed for the 17 attributes of rice-wine and identified targets for product management strategies, including the "usage of domestic ingredients", "ease of purchase", clarity of "product information", and "external image". Therefore, developing solid concepts in marketing strategy are required and may be achieved by understanding the consumer preferences and demands of rice-wine.

Yakju(rice wine) was sterilized with high-voltage pulses of short time on a batch pulsed electric field(PEF) system. The initial microbial counts of Yakju were 7.52 X $10^4\;CFU/mL$ for total aerobes, 2.20 X $10^4\;CFU/mL$ for lactic acid bacteria and 7.08 X $10^4\;CFU/mL$ for yeasts. The pH, acidity and electric conductivity of Yakju were 3.36, 0.462% and 1.24 mS/cm, respectively. Yakju was treated with 2-250 of pulses exponential-wave formed electric pulses under the field strength of 12.5-25 kV/cm. The critical strengths of the electrical field for the sterilization of Yakju were 7.5 kV/cm for total aerobes, 8.5 kV/cm for lactic acid bacteria and 6.5 kV/cm for yeasts. Logarithmic survival rates decreased linearly at low pulse number, but curvilinearly at high pulse number. The PEF sterilization kinetics of Yakju could be analysed by In s = In A-k In (n) and the sterilization rate constant increased with electric field strength and the size of target microorganisms. No changed in pH, acidity, and the growth of microorganisms were found in the PEF treated Yakju during the storage for 6 weeks at both $4^{\circ}C$ And $30^{\circ}C$.

This study was conducted to elucidate how rice with different milling degrees (DOM: 10, 20, 30, and 40%) affects rice yakju properties by accelerated aging. There were significant differences among the treatments with respect to the properties except for brownness before aging, which showed no correlation with DOM (p for trend>0.05). In contrast, the amino acidity and brownness significantly decreased after aging as DOM increased, lightness (L) in particular was affected in all the treatments regardless of DOM. Almost all treatments showed significant differences except for the pH and the total acid and alcohol content between before and after aging. Moreover, the amino acidity, brownness, redness (a), yellowness (b), and color difference in all the treatments showed significant differences regardless of DOM. We found a significant difference in the color change. The yakju free amino acid analysis showed that almost all amino acids slightly decreased as DOM increased.

우리나라는 예전부터 쌀 생산의 명승지였으며 국민은 벼농사를 주요생업으로 삼아 왔기 때문에 자연히 쌀을 원료로 한 술이 나오게 된 것은 당연한 이치이다. 탁주는 일반인이 아는 바와 같이 쌀과 누룩으로 제조한 것이 전통 민속주라 할 수 있겠다. 일제시대에 들어와 1920년경에 일본에서 종국을 들여와 청주제조 및 조미료 제조에 약간씩 이용되었고 해방을 전 후하여 탁 약주에 널리 보급되기 시작하였다. 근대의 탁 약주 출고 및 원료의 변천을 보면 1. 1960년대부터 매년 출고량이 신장되어 왔으며 1973년도 출고량 1,613,147kl가 출고되어 전주류 구성비율은 78.6% 이상에 이르게 되었으나, 2. 1974년부터 1975년(2년간) 사이에 원료변화가 4차례나 바뀌어짐에 따라 1974년도에 소맥 50%, 대맥(보리쌀)50%를 사용하면서부터 출고량이 감소되기 시작하였다. 3. 1988년말 현재에 이르러 출고량은 761,284kl로 53%가 감소되었고 주류 구성비율은 30%내로 이르게 되었다. 우리나라 국민은 누구나 민속주 하면 탁주를 연상한다. 그러나 정부의 식량난 정책에 따라 탁 약주 제조원료 변화는 갖은 수난을 거쳐 오늘에 이르게 되었으나 이제는 경제가 발전되어 국민의 의 식 주도 많이 변화되어지고 있는 바 지난날과 같은 원료변화는 다시는 없어야겠다. 끝으로 탁 약주 제조자의 바램이라면 제조원료를 자유롭게 선택하여 상품을 다양화하고 소비자의 선택에 따라 전통 민속주의 맛을 음미할 수 있는 때가 오기를 바란다.

We investigated the physicochemical and antioxidant activity characteristics of Yakju with different ratios (0, 5, 10, and 15%) of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) root powder in order to find out potential as a functional fermented rice alcohol. Yakju samples were measured to obtain total flavonoid content, total polyphenol content, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, and reducing power. Total flavonoid and polyphenol contents increased with increasing amounts of dandelion root. The DPPH radical scavenging activity increased with the addition of dandelion root. Also, the reducing power was higher in Yakju with dandelion root compared with controls such as gallic acid, butylated hydroxytoluene, and ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. It is concluded that the Yakju fermented with additional dandelion root is functionally superior to the rice alcohol without dandelion root.

In this study, the effect of nuruk prepared from rice with different degrees of milling on the physicochemical and sensory qualities of yakju after accelerated aging was investigated. The results indicated significant differences, except for Fe and Mn contents, in the qualities of aged yakju prepared using nuruk from rice with different degrees of milling. However, the degree of milling of rice did not influence the quality of yakju, except for amino acidity and pH, which significantly decreased as the degrees of milling increased. In addition, as compared to before aging, brownness ($A_{430}$) and color difference significantly increased after aging in all the treatments. The intensity of off flavor in yakju after aging made from 0% milled rice nuruk was the lowest.

Cytotoxic effects of Korean rice-wine (Yakju) made with different processes and ingredients (Korean rice-wines I, II), red wine, white wine, beer, and Japanese rice-wine (Sake) were examined against human cancer lines (DLD-1, HepG2, K562) and mouse cancer lines (EMT6, LLC1). Red wine showed cytotoxic effect on all cancer lines, while Korean rice-wines I, and II showed cytotoxcity on all cancer cells except DLD-1. White wine, beer, and Japanese rice-wine had no or little cytotoxic effect against all cancer cell lines. Concentrate of Korean rice-wine only showed cytotoxic effect against DLD-1. These results suggest Korean rice-wine has strong anti-cancer effects, which are induced by certain rice-wine components.
