This study investigated conditions necessary for factory production of traditional Korean soy sauce flavors, using Bacillus licheniformis SSA3-2M1. We determined whether the flavors were good or bad by comparing sensory evaluation values and the contents of the main taste components of traditional Korean soy sauce with those of the manufactured soy sauce. The soy broth was cultured by Bacillus licheniformis SSA3-2M1. By providing from 1/3 vvm to 2/3 vvm of air, and a culturing time of 412 hours at 30$^{\circ}C$, we produced the taste of traditional Korean soy sauce; moreover its PH was in the PH range of traditioal Korean soy sauce. The distributions of the main taste components and the amino acids, free sugars, and organic acids in the manufactured soy sauce were similar to tradituioal Korean soy sauce.

Buci1llr.s 11c~h~n~1rnSiSi.As 3-2MI which is responsible for the special taste of traditionalKorean soy sause produced two kinds of proteinase. The activity of the proteinasc I washigher about two fold than that of proteinase 11. The optimai, reaction pH of proteinaseI and I1 wcre found to be 7-1 1.5 and 7-9. respectively. Proteinase I1 was more stable andactive than proteinase I at pH ranges around 3 to 5. The optimal te~tlperature of proteinaseI and I1 were 502. The temperature stabilitl of proteinase I1 was Inore stable thanproteinase 1 at temperature range around 30-quot;~A. ctivities of proteinase I and I1 graduallydeclined above $30^{\circ}$C and 45C. respectively. Proteinasc 1 was more active than proteinaseI1 at salt concentration range around 25-3500. The K,,, values of casein and soy proteinfor proteinase I were 6.89 mglml and 3.98 mglml. In case of proteinase 11. they were 9.00mgiml anti 11.44 111g/ml. respectively. The activity of the crudc enzyme was increased by1 rnM Pb(CH3COO). but was decreased by 5 n1M and 10 rnM of HgS04 and ZnS04. Thetwo proteinases produced amino acids and peptides from the soybean protein. The peptideswere digested into amino acids. Both protcinases were found to be the main enzymes thatproduced amino acids which make the main taste of traditional Korean soy sauce.al Korean soy sauce.
