  • Bioremediation is a technique using microorganisms to clean up contaminated pollutants including heavy metals. It is well known that yeasts have a high capacity to remove a wide range of metals by biosorption. Therefore, this study was focused on to obtain yeast mutant that has strong tolerance to zinc (Zn), one of representative heavy metals. The Zn resistant yeast mutant (ZnR) was induced and isolated by growing yeast cells in media containing 1 mM $ZnCl_2$ and gradually increasing the concentration until 80 mM $ZnCl_2$, in which cells were adapted and survived. The induced ZnR cells showed strong tolerance to Zn stress compared with control cells. Moreover, the ZnR cells showed increased tolerance to cadmium and nickel stress but decreased tolerance to copper stress. The increased tolerance of ZnR cells to Zn stress was due to mutation of genes. This study can be useful in bioremediation of heavy metals as the metal tolerant microorganism was artificially induced in short time.

  • The yeast strains isolated for Choungju brewing in the previous report were examined for their microbiological characteristics, together with some comparative tests with Japanese sake yeasts. The isolates KP-16, 21 and 54 were identified as the strains belong to Saccharomyces cerevisae according to the morphological and physiological properties described in Lodder's 'The Yeasts - A texanomic study'. The isolates were grouped into the pink-colored strains by 2,3,5-tripheny tetrazolium chloride over-lay method. The strains KP-16 and 21 were found to be distinguished from the strain KP-54 in aspects of fermentation of sugars, assimilation of carbon sources, and pellicle formation on malt extract broth. ${\alpha}-methyl-D-glucoside$ was not assimilated or fermented by the isolated yeast strains and this is one of the different characters from the Japanese sake yeasts. The isolated strains appeared to have the requirements for biotin and pantothenate, and to have higher tolerance to ethanol than the Japanese sake yeasts. The biotin requirement was not found in the sake yeasts.

  • 최근 새로운 바다 자원으로서 “해양 심층수”가 주목받고 있다. 해양 심층수(深層水, deep sea water)는 태양광이 도달하지 않는 수심 200 m 이상 깊이의 물로 수온이 2$^{\circ}C$ 이하로 연중 거의 변화가 없는 저온안정성과 무기 영양염을 다량 포함하는 특징이 있어 심층수의 활용도는 매우 높다. NaCl만 제거하면 훌릉한 생수가 되기 때문에 심층수를 원료로 한 식품, 화장품, 의약품 개발에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 미국, 일본 등지에서는 10여년전부터 심층수를 이용한 에너지, 수자원, 생수 및 식품 산업이 활발히 진행되어졌다. 현재 식품 산업분야로는 두부제조, 빵, 청주, 간장, 된장 등의 발효식품에 대한 연구가 진행되어지고 있다. 심층수를 적당하게 첨가하면 알코올 농도가 높아지는 발효강화작용이 있다. 새로운 건강 먹거리를 갈망하는 현대인들에게 해양 심층수를 이용한 발효식품은 매우 환영받을 것으로 사료된다. 이에 본 연구는 해양 심층수의 다양한 자원성을 효율적으로 활용하기 위해 심층수의 청정성과 풍부한 미네랄을 함유한 심층수의 농도에 따른 효모의 증식도를 알아봄으로서 적응력 강한 효모를 조사하였다. 실험에 사용한 해양 심층수는 淸凉飮料水(日本ナチュラルヘルス株式會社, 深透水 1550) 사용하였다. 효모균주는 경북과학대 전통식품 연구소에서 보유하고 있는 9종의 효모를 사용하였으며, 심층수 경도 250, 500, 1000의 심층수와 1차 증류수(대조군)에 sucrose 10% 첨가한 당용액을 사용하였다. 또한 당의 적응력을 알아보기 위해 sucrose 10, 15, 20% 첨가 당용액을 사용하여 Sacch.cerevisiae kluyvery DJ97 효모의 증식도를 알아보았다. 그 결과, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 12호 균주가 심층수 경도 500인 시험군에서 증식력이 높았으며, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 901 균주는 경도 1000인 시험군이 대조군에 비해 증식력이 높게 나타나 효모균주의 종류와 심층수의 첨가량에 따라 적응력이 차이가 있었다. 당농도와 심층수 첨가량에 따른 효모 균주의 발효력을 알아본 결과 심층수 경도 200의 당 10% 첨가군에서 가장 잘 증식하는 것으로 나타나, 알코을 효모균주의 발효력을 높이는데는 최적의 농도가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 심층수를 이용한 다양한 발효식품에 대한 연구가 요구되어진다.

  • The molar ratio of sterol to phospholipid differed from yeast strains, and the ratio was relatively higher in non-freeze-tolerant yeast strain, S. cerevisiae than freeze-tolerant yeast strains, D$\sub$2-4/ or CFY. Phospholipid composition of these yeast were also investigated. Phosphatidylcholine content was larger among phospholipids in all yeasts. Higher ratio of PC/PE was found in freeze-tolerant yeast than non-freeze-tolerant yeast. Higher proportion of linolein acid(18 : 2) against total fatty acid attached to phospholipid was observed in D$\sub$2-4/ than S. cerevisiae or CFY, and the degree of unsaturation of fatty acid was higher in D$\sub$2-4/ and CFY than in S. cerevisiae. These results suggested that the fluidity of yeast cell membrane was different in yeast strains, which might result in the difference in freeze-injury of yeast at low temperatures.

  • The objective of this study was to improve the quality of Korean rice wine with wild type yeast strains isolated from various traditional Korean fermented foods. Herein the fermentation and sensory characterization of wild yeast, for the purposes of brewing Korean rice wine, was investigated. 12 yeast strains were examined for their ethanol and glucose tolerance. In addition, the pH, soluble solids, acidity, amino acidity, ethanol content, organic acids, and volatile compounds were also studied for the alcoholic beverages made with the wild yeasts. Almost all Saccharomyces genera yeasts were showed to have a tolerance at 10% ethanol, but non-Saccharomyces genera yeasts displayed a low tolerance. The alcoholic beverages fermented by non-Saccharomyces yeasts demonstrated higher levels of soluble solids, titratable acidity, amino acids, and lower ethanol content, when compared with the alcoholic beverages fermented by Saccharomyces genera yeasts. The organic acid content, such as malic acid, acetic acid, and succinic acid, was seen to also be higher. The electronic nose was analyzed, and discriminant function analysis (DFA) was used for discriminating wild yeast strains. The DFA plots indicated a significant separation of Saccharomyces genera and non-Saccharomyces yeast strains. For volatile compounds, ethyl acetate from non-Saccharomyces yeasts, and ethanol from Saccharomyces genera yeast, a high area ratio was observed.

  • Various indigenous yeasts were isolated and obtained from flowers in the Republic of Korea, and their distribution and species diversity were studied. Seventy-seven flowers were collected from 25 areas in Korea, and 502 yeast strains were isolated from these flowers. A total of 50 species were identified by comparing large subunit rDNA gene sequence homology with the type strains of yeasts. The analysis of yeast distribution showed that the dominant yeast species were Aureobasidium pullulans, A. leucospermi, and Filobasidium magnum in each region and flower samples. Except for the above three yeast species, no species of yeasts showed any meaningful distribution among the habitat regions and sources. In conclusion, 50 species of indigenous yeasts were obtained from flowers that can be used as industrial resources, and the data could be used for further research on yeast diversity and interactions between yeast and its host.

  • This study aimed to isolate wild yeasts from waters and soils on the riversides of Geumgang upstream in Geumsan, seashores of Cheongpodae in Taean and Suncheonman in Suncheon, Korea, and to investigate their unrecorded microbiological characteristics. Forty-nine species of wild yeasts, including Aureobasidium pullans YH 4-3, were isolated from 40 samples of Cheonnaegang in Geumgang upstream. Fifty-six species and 36 species of wild yeasts were also isolated from 80 samples of Cheongpodae Beach and Suncheonman Mashland, respectively. Species from Candida genus were isolated from all three locations. Among them, Candida michaelii NNIBRFG28278, Sporobolomyces japonicus NNIBRFG28271, Dioszegia buhagiarii NNIBRFG28279, Ustilago spermophora NNIBRFG28273, Nakazawaea pomicola NNIBRFG31590, Candida natalensis NNIBRFG31591, Candida pseudorhagii NNIBRFG31592, Candida santamariae NNIBRFG31593, Cutaneotrichosporon terricola NNIBRFG31594, and Meira nashicola NNIBRFG31595 represent newly recorded yeast strains in Korea. Almost all of these unrecorded yeasts were oval shaped, and Sporobolomyces japonicus NNIBRFG28271 and Candida natalensis NNIBRFG31591 have ascospores. All the strains grew well in yeast extract-peptone-dextrose (YPD) and yeast extract-malt extract (YM) media, and Ustilago spermophora NNIBRFG28273 grew well in vitamin-free medium. Sporobolomyces japonicus NNIBRFG28271 grew well in 15% NaCl-containing YPD medium, and Ustilago spermophora NNIBRFG28273 and Dioszegia buhagiarii NNIBRFG28279 assimilated starch, and Ustilago spermophora NNIBRFG28273 produced ethanol.

  • In vitro and in situ incubation studies were conducted to determine effects of yeast culture supplements (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on cellulolytic bacterial function and fiber digestion in rice straw. In vitro dry matter digestibility of rice straw gradually increased according to supplemental levels of yeast culture (0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0%). Digestibility of rice straw started to increase apparently when yeast culture was added more than 0.6% level (p<0.05). Also, we reconfirmed that in vitro dry matter digestibility was significantly increased by 0.6% of yeast culture addition in 4% NaOH treated and non-treated rice straws (p<0.05). When in situ dry matter digestibility was tested in Korean native goats fed basal diet or experimental diet which contained 1.0% of yeast culture, the yeast culture feeding improved in situ dry matter digestibility in both 4% NaOH treated and non-treated rice straws (p<0.05). In case of real-time PCR monitoring cellulolytic bacterial function, the bacterial population attached on rice straw showed the increasing trends with higher level of yeast culture spraying on rice straw. F. succinogenes and R. flavefaciens were significantly increased in accordance to spraying levels of yeast culture (0.0, 0.1 and 0.3%) at both 12 and 24 hrs of in situ incubation (p<0.05). R. albus was significantly higher population in yeast culture spraying than non-soraying at 12 hrs of in situ incubation (p<0.05). These bacterial populations were showed the increasing trends with digestibility enhancement of rice straw according to the higher levels of yeast culture supplement. Overall, these results clearly suggest that the presence of yeast culture result in noticeable increase of rice straw digestion, which is modulated via good effect on cellulolytic bacterial attachment to fiber substrates.

  • The yeast strains used for fermentation are known to influence the qualities of wine. We investigated the effects of fermentation using different yeast strains on the properties of wine produced from 'Hayward' kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa). The physicochemical characteristics of wine produced using various yeast strains for fermentation were also analyzed. Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gervin No.5 strain (GVN), S. bayanus Lavin strain EC1118 (EC1118), and S. cerevisiae Red star Davis No. 796 (No.796) are commercial dry yeast strains selected for optimization of fermentation. Although the soluble solid contents of samples fermented by all three yeast strains decreased by a similar extent, the levels of alcohol production differed, particularly during the first week of fermentation. Use of the GVN strain resulted in the highest alcohol concentration (13.8%, v/v), whereas fermentation with No.796 and EC1118 strains yielded alcohol contents of 13.0% and 12.5% (both v/v), respectively. Upon sensory evaluation, GVN-fermented wine had a strong taste and bitterness, with high acid and alcohol contents. Wine fermented using No.796 had a chemical profile similar to that of GVN-fermented product, but the taste remained sweet, consistent with the lower alcohol content. EC1118-fermented wine was soft and sweet in taste, high in flavor, and had a low alcohol content. Total phenolic levels and antioxidant activities in wine fermented by EC1118 were significantly higher than in wines prepared using No.796 or GVN. When previously described characteristics were additionally considered, EC1118 was selected as an optimum strain for further study. In conclusion, fermentation of kiwifruit using different yeast strains yielded wines with distinct characteristics. The yeast strain EC1118 had the most desirable properties, and is considered suitable for kiwifruit fermentation. Valuable attributes of wine fermented by this yeast include overall sensory acceptance, an appropriate level of total phenolics, and good antioxidant activity.
