Changes in total aerobic bacteria (TAB), lactic acid bacteria (LAB), rod- and coccal-shaped lactic acid bacteria (R- and C-LAB), pH, and total acidity were investigated during fermentation of radish with new fermentation base at $20^{\circ}C$ for up to 16 days. New fermentation base was prepared by pre-fermenting a mixture of rice bran and rice water (1 : 0.1, w/v) at $20^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. Initially, radish showed 5.41, 4.23, 4.57, and 3.1 log CFU/g, and base showed 6.68, 6.60, 5.95, and 5.6 log CFU/mL for TAB, LAB, R-LAB, and C-LAB, respectively. Initial pH and total acidity of radish were $6.6^{\circ}C$ and 0.09%, and those of base were 5.76 and 0.36%, respectively, Counts of LAB (4.23 to 8.33 Bog Cpu/g, 6.6 to 9.7 log CFU/mL), R-LAB (4.57 to 7.15 log CFU/g, 5.95 to 8.5 log CFU/mL), and C-LAB (3.1 to 7.5 log CFU/g, 5.6 to 8.6 log CFU/mL) of radish and base respectively increased during initial fermentation period, then remained constant during late fermentation period, and far 4 days after fermentation, pH values (6.6 to 4.19, 5.76 to 4.57) drastically decreased and thereafter slowly decreased. Total acidities of radish and base (0.09 to 0.63%, 0.36 to 0.63%, respectively) drastically increased far 7 days after fermentation and increased slightly thereafter.

The curd yogurt (total solid content: 14%) was prepared from milk added with skim milk powder and potato puree. Potato puree comprised 9.5. 13,8 and 17.9% (dry basis) of the milk-potato mixture, and the effect of potato on the quality of yogurt was investigated. Addition of potato remarkably stimulated acid production and propagation of lactic acid bacteria, and viable cells reached above $3.9{\times}10^{10}$ CFU/ml after 12 hours. As potato content increased, the ratio of lactic acid content to total acidity decreased, while citric acid increased. The major organic acids of yogurt were lactic acid, citric acid, and acetic acid. Viscosity of yogurt was increased in proportion to the increment of the potato content. After 24 hours of incubation, the sensory score of yogurt containing 13.8% (dry basis) potato showed better sensory acceptability. When curd yogurt added with potato was kept at $5^{\circ}C$ for 15 day, its keeping quality was relatively good. Viable cells of lactic acid bacteria and ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity decreased rapidly at pH 1.5, and 2.5, but the group added with potato was more stable than control.

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.

The changes of microorganisms, pH, color and flavor were examined in the chicken treated with O％, 1%, 2%, and 3% lactic acid solutions during the storage at 4$^{\circ}C$. Lactic acid treatment inhibited the growth of mesophiles, psychrotrophs, and enteric bacilli as the concentration increased, however, it was not effective on yeasts and molds. Extension of lag phase for mesophilic bacteria and suppression of log phase for psychrotrophs and enteric bacilli were observed in the growth inhibition patterns. The pH of the chicken increased during the storage and antimicrobial effect of lactic acid appears to be due to mainly the decrease of pH. No flavor change of the chicken was observed by any lactic acid treatment, however, 3％ lactic acid caused discoloration of the chicken.

Isolation and identification of predominant microorganisms in fermented squid with low salt were carried out during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$. Dominant strains were lactic acid bacteria(80%) including Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus brevis, Leuconostoc sp., Pediococcus sp. and Streptococcus sp. Leuconostoc, Pediococcus and Streptococcus were shown in the early stage of fermentation and gradually increased until optimum stage of squid fermentation, and then decreased rapidly. Lactobacillus grew lastingly during fermentation. Yeasts were detected in the middle stage of fermentation and shown rapid increase after the last stage of fermentation, suggesting that yeasts participate in putrefaction of fermented squid with low salt.

The interaction between Lactobacillus acidophilus and Kluyveromyces fragilis on the utilization of amino acids in soymilk was investigated. K. fragilis assimilated relatively well various amino acids such as Met., ILe., Phe., Leu., Thr., Lys., Val., Arg., Tyr., Ser., Asp., Ala. and Glu. that existed only in trace amounts in soymilk. K. fragilis did not utilized Gly., while hi accumulated His. L. acidophilus hydrolyzed soyprotein to liberate various amino acids. Among various amino acids, it utilized Met., ILe., Thr., Tyr., Ser., Val. and His. as growth factors and accumulated Leu., Phe., Lys., Arg., Glu., Asp. and Ala. among the essential amino acids required by K. fragilis and Gly. These results implied that K. fragilis grew on amino acids that existed only in trace amounts in soymilk, but it's growth was stimulated by amino acids such as Leu., Phe., Lys., Arg., Glu., Asp. and Ala. ac-cumulated by L. acidophilus.

This study was conducted to find the antimicrobial activity of garlic extracts by various processing methods(boiled, pan fried, microwave heated, pickled). Ethanol and water extracts from garlic sample were prepared and antimicrobial activities were determined against 10 microoganisms ; food borne pathogens, food poisoning microoganisms, food-related bacteria and yeasts. The ethanol extracts from the fresh and pickled garlic showed antimicrobial activities for test microoganisms, except lactic acid bacteria and yeast. However, the antimicrobial activities were decreased by heat treatment. The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) of the fresh garlic extracts was determined to 0.1 mg/mL against an gram positive bacterium and 0.5 mg/mL against an gram negative bacterium. The antimicrobial activities of the ethanol extracts were affected by heating methods and not by pHs.
