  • Acetic acid is indirectly involved in cell center metabolism, and acetic acid metabolism is the core of central metabolism, affecting and regulating the production of bacteriocin. Bacteriocin is a natural food preservative that has been used in the meat and dairy industries and winemaking. In this paper, the effects of acetic acid on bacteriocin produced by Gram-positive bacteria were reviewed. It was found that acetic acid in the undissociated state can diffuse freely through the hydrophobic layer of the membrane and dissociate, affecting the production, yield, and activity of bacteriocin. In particular, the effect of acetic acid on cell membranes is summarized. The link between acetic acid metabolism, quorum sensing, and bacteriocin production mechanisms is also highlighted.

  • This study was carried out for the purpose of improving the persimmon vinegar. The acetic acid bacteria strain JST-3, using acetic acid fermentation was isolated from the traditional persimmon vinegar. The optimum conditions for high yield of acetic acid were studied in the shaking bath. Acetic acid bacteria was cultured at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 days and transferred to persimmon alcoholic juice for acetic acid fermentation. The optimum initial acidity for acetic acrid fermentation was 1%(w/v) and the addition of glucose or yeast extract was observed to produce relatively low yield of acetic acid. Succinic and acetic acid were major organic acid in the persimmon vinegar, The contents of lactic acid which was known to increase off-flavor were very low. Sensory evaluation revealed that the persimmon vinegar prepared in this study was superior to two commercial ones in the aroma and taste.

  • For the selection of a starter for vinegar, six strains of acetic-acid bacteria were isolated from traditional Korean vinegar fermented through the static method. These strains were investigated for their acetic-acid fermentation and identification characteristics. The 16S rRNA sequences of six strains were identified as Acetobacter pasteurianus, A. malorum, Gluconacetobacter entanii, Ga. intermedius, and Ga. xylinus respectively. The overoxidation of acetic acid, acetic-acid and pH tolerances, and acetic-acid production of these strains were investigated. None seemed to have been overoxidized. The Gluconacetobacter genus showed acetic-acid tolerance. Among the acetic-acid bacteria, A. malorum V5-7 exhibited the highest pH tolerance. The Ga. intermedius V11-5 and Ga. xylinus V8-1 strains produced colloids that exopolysaccharides of fiber. The acetic-acid production by isolated acetic-acid bacteria and type strain was a achieved at a shaking culture at $30^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. A. malorum V5-7, A. pasteurianus Gam2, and Ga. intermedius V11-5 exhibited the highest acetic acid production. The study results indicate that appropriate strains of acetic-acid bacteria improved the thraditional Korean vinegar fermented through the static method.

  • This study was conducted to determine the optimal conditions of acetic acid fermentation of aronia using the response surface methodology (RSM). Alcohol content of aronia wine was 13.1% after alcohol fermentation of aronia fruits. The optimal conditions of acetic acid fermentation were determined by five levels of initial aronia alcohol content, initial acetic acid content, and acetic acid bacteria, using the central composite design. The acetic acid yields, residual alcohol contents, pH, and color values (L, a, b) of acetic acid fermentation products were very significantly different ($p{\leq}0.01$), and were 26.34~57.82 g/L, 0.80~1.53%, 3.19~3.43, 47.58~71.00, 31.77~51.15, and 18.45~48.57, respectively. For the results, the optimal conditions of acetic acid fermentation of aronia were 7.78% of the initial alcohol concentration, 1.58% of the initial acetic acid, and 19.39% of the acetic acid bacteria.

  • The twenty strains of Lactobacillus genus were tested for the optimal sponge fermentation of soda cracker. The six strains such as L. brevis, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum, L. leichmanii, L. plantarum and L. sanfrancisco were selected because these strains did not smell off-flavor and showed the high value of TTA (total titrable acidity) after the fermentation. The selected strains consisted of the five strains of L. brevis, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum, L. leichmanii and L. plantarum that mainly inhabited soda clacker and L. sanfrancisco that existed in San Francisco bread. The lactic acid bacteria were inoculated to the medium containing 10% wheat flour and then pH, TTA, acetic acid and lactic acid were measured during the sponge fermentation. The four strains of L. brevis, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum and L. plantarum were used for the mixed lactic acid bacteria of sponge fermentation because the TTAs of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum were higher than those of other lactic acid bacteria and L. delbrueckii rapidly produced organic acids and a large amount of acetic acid. Among the combination of L. brevis, L. fermentum, L. delbrueckii and L. plantarum, the mixed lactic acid bacteria of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum showed the highest TTA, the lowest pH and the largest amount of acetic acid. Therefore, the mixed lactic acid bacteria of L. brevis, L. fermentum and L. plantarum were used for optimal sponge fermentation of soda cracker.

  • Cabbage, the main material of coleslaw was not safely washed because it is uneven and tightly layered. In this study, vinegar was used to control the number of E. coli in cabbage for coleslaw production. When cabbage was soaked in 10% acetic acid, The number of bacteria was reduced by $10^{-3}$ was survived after 5min and $10^{-6}$ after 30min. After soaking, 15-20% (w/w of cabbage) of 10% acetic acid was remained in chopped cabbage. Spraying 10% acetic acid up to 3% of cabbage weight decreased the number of bacteria by 1/1000 after 60min. Spraying 3% (v/w of cabbage) of vinegar containing 10% acidity decreased the bacteria by 2/3 after 20min but no further decrease was observed. This result indicated that vinegar can be used only in the case that contamination is low.
