  • The contents of organic acids in traditional and modified fermented foods were compared, and propionic acid produced during fermentation was investigated. Organic acids in traditional and modified soy sauces were lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, formic acid, succinic acid and oxalic acid while propionic acid was found in traditional soy sauces only. Similarly, lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, formic acid, succinic acid and propionic acid were found in traditional and modified soy paste. The organic acids in traditional and modified kochujang were citric acid, acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, oxalic acid and succinic acid while propionic acid was not found in modified kochujang. The major organic acid in persimmon and commercial (fermented) vinegars was acetic acid. Propionic acid was uniquely found in persimmon vinegars. Also, content of tannic acid in persimmon vinegars was 366.9 ∼ 909.8 mg%.

  • This study was carried out to evaluate the growth characteristics of Lactobacillus acidophilus KCCM 32820 and Propionibacterium freudenreichii KCCM 31227 and the production of propionic and acetic acids in 5% and 10% whey broth by mixed culture of L. acidophilus KCCM 32820 and P. freudenreichii KCCM 31227. Exponential phase of L. acidophilus KCCM 32820 was in the range of $6\sim12$ hrs and P. freudenreichii KCCM 31227 was in the range of $36\sim108$ hrs. In the mixed culture, production of propionic acid was shown to be greater value in the 10% whey broth than in the 5% whey broth and to be greater value in the low temperature for a long time than in sterilization by autoclave. Maximum production of propionic acid was 8.88 mg/mL in the 10% whey broth fermented at 120hrs. Production of acetic acid was revealed to be greater value in the 10% whey broth than in the 5% whey broth. The production quantity ratio of propionic acid to acetic acid was shown between $2:1\sim3:1$ during the fermentation process.

  • This study aimed to investigate the effect of amino acid additives to weaned piglet diets on the pH and volatile fatty acids of pig slurries. A total of 135 weaned 22 -day-old piglets (Yorkshire x Landrace x Duroc) were used in this 56-d study. The three dietary treatments were as follows: (1) Control as a basal diet, (2) 1% amino acid additive and (3) 2% amino acid additive. Both pH and acetic acid values at 71 and 78 days were significantly different in all treatment groups (p<0.05). In addition, significant differences in propionic acid values were observed among treatment groups at 64 and 78 days (p<0.05). However, pH, acetic acid, and propionic acid values did not differ between 1% and 2% amino acid treatment groups. In conclusion, adding 1% and 2% amino acid to weaned piglet diets reduced the pH, acetic acid and propionic acid contents of pig slurries by acting as a probiotic. This may help formulate increase management strategies for improving the pig housing environment.

  • The readily fermentable carbon sources in swine were acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid at the average concentrations of 7.2 g/L, 2.2 g/L and 2.7 g/L, respectively. The swine waste also contained excess nitrogen and other mineral sources. In shake flask experiments, the optimal range of cell growth for Azotobacter vinelandii UWD were 1.0∼3.5 g/L of acetic acid, 0.7∼2.0 g/L of propionic acid and 0.5∼2.0 g/L of butyric acid. A mixture of these three acids simulating two times diluted swine waste supported the best cell growth but the amount of carbon sources was limited. In shake flask and fermentor experiments, an addition of 30 g/L of glucose increased the final cell dry weight 8 times while the final poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) concentration increased 86 times compared with using acid mixture only. A. vinelandii UWD preferred organic acids in the sequence of acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and valeric acid.

  • Flash points for the flammable binary systems, n-propanol+acetic acid and n-propanol+n-propionic acid, were measured by Cleveland open cup tester. The Raoult's law, the van Laar equation and the UNIQUAC equation were used for predicting flash points and were compared with experimentally-derived data. The calculated values based on the van Laar and UNIQUAC equations were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law. And the predictive curve of the flash point prediction model based on the UNIQUAC equation described the experimentally-derived data more effectively than was the case when the prediction model was based upon the the van Laar equation.

  • Organic acids are known as natural sanitizers. We examined the sanitizing effects of five organic acids (acetic acid, propionic acid, citric acid, malic acid, and lactic acid) and their persistence on three pectinolytic yeast strains isolated from decayed citrus, and the persistence of their sanitizing effects was determined during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $16^{\circ}C$. The 7~8 log CFU/mL of the mixed three yeast mixture was exposed to various concentrations of each organic acid for 1 min. The yeast mixtures decreased under detection limit(1 log CFU/mL) in 1% of acetic acid, followed by in 3% of propionic acid with the reduction of 5 log CFU/mL. The citric acid, malic acid, and lactic acid decreased the number of yeasts under detection limit at 7.5%. When treated with deionized water and 1~5% of organic acids were treated on the surfaces of citrus contaminated by yeasts, total numbers of the yeasts decreased under detection limit(3 log CFU) at 5% of acetic acid and 4 log CFU/piece at 5% propionic acid compared with deionized water. When treated with acetic acid and propionic acid on the stem ends of the contaminated citrus, total numbers of the yeasts significantly decreased 0.5 log CFU/piece at 3% of both organic acids. During storage at $4^{\circ}C$ and $16^{\circ}C$ for 20 days, total number of yeasts significantly decreased at 2% acetic acid compared with deionized water. This study suggested that organic acids could be used to sanitize microbial contaminants from citrus for storage and transportation.

  • More than 145 million tons of liquid whey is produced world-wide as dairy processing waste per year, and half of it is discarded without proper treatment. Due to its high nutrient value, the environmental impact can be significant. Bioconversion of cheese whey can provide an effective way to reduce the waste and, at the same time, generate economically attractive value-added chemicals. In this study, cheese whey was fermented with P. acidipropionici to produce propionic acid which has a high market value for chemical and pharmaceutical industries. In order to specifically enhance propionic acid production, acetic acid production was suppressed using o-iodosobenzoic acid as an enzyme inhibitor. When grown in the presence of the inhibitor, propionic acid production rate increased by a factor of 2 while acetic acid production rate decreased by a factor of 3. Furthermore, when 0.3 mM of o-iodosobenzoic acid was used, the incipient stage(creeping growth period) was considerably reduced. Therefore, the inhibitor helps the cells begin to grow earlier and speed up the production of propionic acid. Although the production rate of propionic acid effectively increased, the final concentration(or production yield) remained unchanged due to product inhibition. Methods that can reduce product inhibition are being tested combined with o-iodosobenzoic acid to optimize both the production rate and yield. The results are expected to be informative for controlling the other byproducts for other applications.

  • Bamboo vinegar was prepared from China-grown bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens) using simple kiln (400 - 500 $^{\circ}C$), and its physical properties and chemical components were investigated and compared to those of Korea-grown bamboo vinegar. The physical properties of China-grown bamboo vinegar were as follows: Baume specific gravity 4.5, organic acid 9.9%, pH 2.8, tar 3.1% and refractive index 13.1%, respectively. The main components of the bamboo vinegar were acetic acid, 1-hydroxyl-2-propanone, methanol, propionic acid, 1-hydroxyl-2- butanone. There was no significant difference between the components of Korea- and China-grown bamboo vinegars. Total organic materials in China-grown bamboo vinegar were 14.8%, and organic acids (acetic acid, formic acid, propionic acid, and butanoic acid) consisted of 9.0%. These acids corresponded to 61% of total organic materials. Neutral and phenolic compounds consisted of 4.5% and 0.8% of the bamboo vinegar, which were correspond to 6% and 31% of total organic materials, respectively. The physicochemical properties of traditional Chinese bamboo vinegar indicated that it was collected at low temperature and aged for a long time.
