This study measured the change of lactic acid bacteria during the ripening fermentation process of low salt fermented squid with no squid ink added. All study groups showed increase of Leuconostoc and rapid growth of total plate count at the beginning stage of ripening and the maximum microbial count showed at the optimum stage of ripening which gradually reduced after the optimum stage. It is believed that Lactobacillus occupied the major part of the total plate count after the optimum stage of the squid fermentation, and it was related to the quality after the optimized ripening stage. Streptococcus and Pediococcus were gradually increased until the optimum stage of the ripening, and then decreased rapidly. Yeasts were detected in the middle stage of the fermentation and rapid increase was shown after the last stage of the fermentation which suggests that yeasts participate in putrefaction of the low salt fermented squid. The change of lactic acid bacteria observed during the ripening fermentation of low salt fermented squid with squid ink added was that the total plate count increased until ripening middle stage but showed a tendency to slightly reduce after the middle stage. The length of time to reach the maximum value was longer than the no treatment groups. Among the lactic acid bacteria, Leuconostoc, Streptococcus and Pediococcus has increased until the middle stage of the ripening while Lactobacillus constantly increased to the end part of the ripening. Yeasts had no increasing in the early ripening stage, but after middle of the ripening, it started to increase. That kind of tendency was similar to the case of no treatment groups. However, the amount of lactic acid bacteria tended to be less than no treatment groups. The tendency of decreasing number of all bacteria in low salt fermented squid with squid ink added shows squid ink restricts the growth of all bacteria.

Effect of copper ions (Cu$\^$+/ and Cu$\^$2+/) on the fermentation of kimchi, especially on their effect on the prevention of over-acidification of kimchi, was investigated. The effect of Cu$\^$2+/ ion on the growth of individual lactic acid bacterium originally isolated from kimchi was also investigated. The addition of Cu$\^$+/($\geq$4.0mM) or Cu$\^$2+/($\geq$3.0mM) ions in kimchi effectively inhibited growth of lactic acid bacteria and maintained a titratable acidity of less than 1.0% for a periods of 14 days. Leuconostoc mesenteroides significantly decreased at the 10th day of fermentation in control kimchi, whereas the group with Cu$\^$+/ and Cu$\^$2+/ showed 10$\^$5/-10$\^$6/ CFU/ml at the 14th day of fermentation. This indicates that the addition of Cu$\^$+/ and Cu$\^$2+/ inhibited the production of excessive acids by inhibiting lactic acid bacteria, and allowed Leu. mesenteroides stay alive longer. Fe$\^$2+/ and SO$_4$$\^$2-/ ions did not have any effect on the fermentation of kimchi. Cu$\^$2+/ inhibited growth of all lactic acid bacteria tested, such as Leu. mesenteroides 6, Streptococcus faecalis 12, Lactobacillus plantarum 14, Lac. brevis 15, Leu. mesenteroides LA 10, and Lac. plantarum LA 97.

Changes of lactic acid bacteria and fermentation patterns were investigated during fermentation of Green Onion Kimchi and Chinese Cabbage Kimchi at 10 and $20^{\circ}C$. Fermentation of Green Onion Kimchi proceeded more slowly than Chinese Cabbage Kimchi in point of changes of pH, total acidity and total viable cell number. Maximum number of total viable cell, Leuconostoc, and Lactobacillus in Green Onion Kimchi were smaller than in Chinese Cabbage Kimchi. And these differences were larger in fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$. Total sugar content of Green Onion Kimchi was higher than Chinese Cabbage Kimchi not only at the beginning of fermentation but also at the end of fermentation. Therefore, the reason for the slow fermentation of Green Onion Kimchi was not low sugar content. Major lactic acid bacteria of properly fermented Green Onion Kimchi were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc mesenteroides which had been reported to be major lactic acid bacteria isolated from Chinese Cabbage Kimchi.

A curd yogurt was prepared by fermenting milk added with skim milk powder and purple sweet potato by culture of 5 types of lactic acid bacteria(Lactobacillus delbruekii sub. sp. lactis, Streptococcus lactis, acidity, number of viable cell, stability of purple sweet potato's pigment and keeping qualify. Among the organisms tested, the acid production and number of viable cell by the culture of L bulgaricus remarkably increased for the first 12 hem which showed 1.04${\times}$10$\^$9/ CFU/mL in number of viable cell and 4.22 In pH where as fermentation by the culture of B. bifidum was slow. After 36 hours of incubation which showed 3.3 ${\times}$ l0$\^$8/ CFU/mL in number of viable cell and 5.1 in pH. In stabilities of purple sweet potato anthocyanin pigment n fermentation, yogurt by B. bifidum was found to be most stable followed by Leuc. lactis, L. delbruekii sub. sp. lactis, L bulgaricus, but yogurt by St. lactis was not stable. When curd yogurt added with Purple sweet Potato was kept at 2∼3$^{\circ}C$ for 14 day, its keeping quality(pH, titratable acidity, number of viable cell) was relative good except product by L. bulgaricus was found to be decreased most of viable cell. After 2 weeks of keeping, pigment of yogurt was decreased by B. bifidum, stable by L. delbruekii sub. sp. lactis.

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.

This study was conducted to evaluate effect of adding cryoprotectant agents on the growth of lactic acid bacteria during storage of powdered Kimchi. Powdered Kimchi was prepared by adding 1.5% cryoprotectant (glucose, maltose, lactose, and sucrose) and freeze-dried. For the preparation of micro-sized particle of Kimchi powder, the freeze-dried Kimchi was powered at 14,000 rpm for 2 min. The survival ratio of lactic acid bacteria in the powdered Kimchi was monitored during storage period of 4 months at -20, 0, 4, and $25^{\circ}C$ after the capsulation of the powedered Kimchi. The number of lactic acid bacteria in the powdered Kimchi capsule was the greatest stored at $-20^{\circ}C$, and the addition of glucose in cryoprotectant showed higher survival rate of lactic acid bacteria than that of control. More than $10^7CFU/g$ of lactic acid bacteria were survived in the powdered Kimchi stored at 0 and $4^{\circ}C$. However, the lactic acid bacteria were not detected in the powdered Kimchi stored at $25^{\circ}C$. As a results, the addition of cryoprotectant agents in the manufacturing process improved the survival rate of lactic acid bacteria in powered Kimchi products with accompanying with a cold-chain system for the distributon of powdered Kimchi products.

Lactic acid bacteria(LAB) were isolated from fermenting Kimchi and were cultivated in filter-sterilized Chinese cabbage juice individually or in combination. LAB isolated were Lactobacillus leichimannii, Lac. fermentum, in addition to the already known Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lac. plantarum, lac. brevis and pediococcus pentosaceus. Lac. leichimannii, Lac. fermentum and Lac. sake, the early lactobacilli, were high in number exceeding $10^4cells/ml$ at 0 time and multiplied up to $10^9cells/ml$ altogether at the 3rd day of kimchi fermentation. When the representative LAB were cultivated singly in Chinese cabbage juice with or without 3.0% NaCl, one strain of Leu. mesenteroides and La. leichmannii were not different in acid producing ability while the other strain of Leu. mesenteroides and Lac. fermentum Lac. plantarum, produced less acid when NaCl was present. When the bacteria in combination were cultivated in Chinese cabbage juice with 3.0% NaCl, the presence of Leu. mesenteroides was essential to eliminate the lag phase in acid production with higher amounts of acid produced than without. The total number of lactobacilli in the mixture of kimchi ingredients was about $2.9{\times}10^4 cells/ml$ while the number of Lac. plantarum was 7.3 cells/ml. The number of Lac. plantarum in individual ingredients were normally in the range between $0.0{\sim}240cells/g$ except garlic sold in ready-to-use form with $9.0{\times}10^3 cells/g$.

Fresh rice straw silage (RSS) was prepared with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and chlorella (CA) at the experimental field of National Institute of Animal Science, Cheonan Province, Korea. This experiment consisted of the following eight treatments: control treatment without CA and LAB; treatment of 0.1% CA applied without LAB; treatment of 0.5% CA applied without LAB; treatment of 1.0% CA applied without LAB; treatment of only LAB inoculation without CA; treatment of 0.1% CA inoculated with LAB; treatment of 0.5% CA inoculated with LAB; and treatment of 1.0% CA inoculated with LAB. The content of crude protein of RSS significantly elevated with increased concentration of CA (p<0.05). The levels of acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), total digestible nutrient (TDN), and in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) showed no significant improvement in all treatments when compared to control. However, the quantity of lactic acid in RSS increased in CA and LAB alone inoculated treatments. Similarly, lactic acid significantly increased in LAB with CA treatments when compared to control. In addition, the number of LAB in LAB treatment increased as compared to control and significantly increased by an increase of CA concentration (p<0.05). Therefore, the nutritive values and quality of RSS can be improved by the addition of CA.
