막걸리에서 분리된 B. subtilis의 특성을 파악하고자 영양유무(buffer와 TSB), pH(pH 7과 4, 막걸리 pH 4), adaptation 조건에 따라 초고압에 의한 저감 효과를 살펴보았다. B. subtilis 포자는 영양유무, pH에 관계없이 환경 적응력이 있었고, 초고압에 의한 저감효과도 미미하게 관찰되었다. B. subtilis 영양세포는 영양유무와 pH에 따라 대조구(non-treatment)의 균수 차이가 관찰되었고, 초고압에 의한 저감 효과도 다르게 나타났다. B. subtilis 영양세포는 저온에서 영양과 pH가 불리한 환경에서 endospore를 형성하여 적응을 하게 되고 초고압에 의한 저감효과는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 막걸리에 접종한 경우는 buffer(pH 4)와 TSB(pH 4)보다 적응력이 약한 것으로 관찰되었다. B. subtilis 포자를 접종한 막걸리의 저장 실험 결과, 내열성이 있으며 균의 증식은 관찰되지 않았다. 결론적으로, 막걸리에서 B. subtilis는 대부분 포자상태로 존재하며, 포자는 초고압에 대한 저항력이 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 초고압은 영양세포 사멸에 효과적이었다.

설기떡을 이용한 막걸리 제조 시 흑마늘 추출액의 첨가방법을 달리하여 그 품질 특성을 실험하였다. 설기떡(control), 설기떡과 15% 흑마늘 추출액(A), 그리고 15% 흑마늘 추출액을 첨가하여 제조한 흑마늘 설기떡(B)으로 각각 막걸리를 제조하였다. 대조군에 비해 흑마늘이 첨가된 막걸리는 pH는 더 높았으며 산도는 낮았다. 총당과 알코올 함량은 발효기간 동안 계속 증가하였으며, 총균수, 효모수, 유산균수 모두 흑마늘 추출액 첨가 유무에 따른 경향의 차이는 없었다. 그러나 흑마늘 추출액이 첨가된 막걸리군에서는 유산균수가 효모수보다 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 15일 동안 발효가 완료된 막걸리의 색도를 측정한 결과 흑마늘이 첨가된 막걸리군이 대조군에 비해 a, b값이 더 높게 나타났으며, 명도를 나타내는 L값은 대조군이 더 높았다. 항산화 활성 측정을 위해 DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거활성을 측정한 결과 흑마늘 설기떡으로 제조한 막걸리에서 활성이 가장 높았으며 발효전보다 발효 후 활성이 2배 이상 더 증가하였다. 라디칼 소거능 결과를 종합하여볼 때 흑마늘 추출액 첨가 및 흑마늘 설기로 제조한 막걸리의 발효 초기 라디칼 소거활성은 첨가된 흑마늘에 기인하는 것으로 생각되며, 발효 완료 후 라디칼 소거활성이 더 증가되는 것은 발효과정을 통해 항산화성 물질의 유리가 용이해지고, 발효와 더불어 생성된 미생물 대사산물들이 영향을 미쳤기 때문으로 판단된다.

Background: Artificial sweeteners are chemically synthesized substances used to add sweetness to foods. Representative substances include aspartame and acesulfame-K, which are 200 times sweeter than sugar. Recently, the IARC classified aspartame as class 2B, but Ministry of Food and Drug Safety of South Korea announced that it would maintain the current usage standards. Acesulfame-K, which has the potential to cause cancer, was excluded from the list of possible carcinogens, raising questions about its safety. According to a survey by the Consumers Union of Korea, 85% of makgeolli includes artificial sweeteners, but the content labelling is not indicated. It is necessary to accurately determine the intake of artificial sweeteners through makgeolli. Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the safety of makgeolli consumption by identifying the content of artificial sweeteners (aspartame, acesulfam-K) and preservatives (sorbic acid). Methods: Twenty makgeolli samples were purchased from large supermarkets and convenience stores by referring to the sales ranking of makgeolli products distributed in South Korea and the purchase ranking from online sites. The sample was sonicated to remove alcohol and carbon dioxide. Nine mL of acetonitrile was mixed with 1 mL of the prepared sample, centrifuged, and the supernatant was filtered and analyzed using HPLC. Results: As a result of the analysis, aspartame was detected in 17 products and acesulfame-K was detected in ten. The ADI of aspartame (40 mg/kg·bw/day) is higher than the EDI based on the maximum concentration 126.5 ㎍/mL. The ADI of acesulfame-K (15 mg/kg·bw/day) is higher than the EDI based on the highest concentration of 82.96 ㎍/mL. Although the health risk is low, IARC has raised the possibility of aspartame causing carcinogenesis, so there is a need to reevaluate the standards and regulations for artificial sweeteners. Conclusions: Through this study, we aimed to determine the content of aspartame and acesulfame-K contained in makgeolli currently distributed in South Korea and the safety of exposure to the human body when consumed.

Makgeolli is a traditional wine in Korea and has been traditionally believed to exhibit health benefits. However, the inhibitory effect of dealcoholized makgeolli (MK) on cancer has never been investigated scientifically. In this study, MK exhibited an anti-angiogenic effect by inhibiting tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, without cytotoxicity. Treatment with MK reduced the proliferation of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells in a dose-dependent manner and increased the sub-G1 population. Next, we evaluated whether MK could induce apoptosis in AGS cells by using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay or Annexin V method. Treatment with MK at 500 and 1,000 μg/ml increased the number of TUNEL-positive AGS cells. Under the same conditions, MK-treated (500 and 1,000 μg/ml) cells showed significant induction of early or late apoptosis, compared with untreated cells (no induction). In addition, MK also induced phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) expression in AGS cells. However, p53 expression in AGS cells was not changed by MK treatment. Furthermore, MK at 500 mg/kg·d reduced the tumor size and volume in AGS tumor xenografts. Taken together, MK may be useful for the prevention of cancer cell growth.

Makgeolli is a traditional cloudy-white Korean rice wine with an alcohol content of 6~7%. The present study investigated the morphological characteristics, carbon-utilizing ability, fatty acid composition, alcohol resistance, glucose tolerance, and flocculence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y98-5 and Pichia anomala Y197-13, non-S. cerevisiae isolated from Nuruk, which is used in brewing Makgeolli. Similar morphological characteristics were observed for both isolated wild yeast strains; and the carbon source assimilation of Y197-13 differed from that of other P. anomala strains. Strain Y197-13 was negative for D-trehalose, mannitol, arbutin, I-erythritol, and succinic acid. The major cellular fatty acids of strain Y197-13 included C18:2n6c (33.94%), C18:1n9c (26.97%) and C16:0 (20.57%). Strain Y197-13 was Crabtree-negative, with 60% cell viability at 12% (v/v) ethanol. The flocculation level of strain Y197-13 was 8.38%, resulting in its classification as a non-flocculent yeast.

The quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of makgeolli added with different amounts of pomegranate powder (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) were investigated. Although pH was reduced with increasing concentrations of pomegranate powder, all pH values rapidly decreased for 2 days, and then gently increased afterwards. Total acidity increased until 3 days of fermentation and then slowly increased. Sugar and reducing sugar contents reached maximum levels after 1 day of fermentation and gradually decreased until 7 days. Alcohol content remarkably increased until 2 days and gradually increased until 7 days. The addition of over 10% pomegranate powder increased yeast count until 3 days of fermentation, followed by a decrease. In the sensory evaluation, color, flavor, sweetness, and overall acceptance decreased with increasing concentrations of pomegranate powder, and sourness and bitterness slightly increased. Early antioxidant activity improved according to the concentration of pomegranate powder, but addition of 15% and 20% pomegranate powders reduced antioxidant activity from 3 days of fermentation. In conclusion, addition of 10% pomegranate powder would be the most suitable to manufacture pomegranate makgeolli.

In this study we investigated the effect of temperature on the two-stage fermentation of Makgeolli using uncooked germinated black rice. The fermentation processes were conducted at $15^{\circ}C$ for three weeks and $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The pH of Makgeolli at $25^{\circ}C$ increased from pH3.0 to pH 4.2, which was consistent with that at $15^{\circ}C$. In contrast total acidity of Makgeolli at $15^{\circ}C$ was about half of that at $25^{\circ}C$ (0.36% and 0.59%, respectively). By the 7 days-fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$, 11% of alcohol was produced, whereas three weeks were required for the same alcohol production at $15^{\circ}C$. In the case of sugar contents, the amounts of total glucose-equivalent reducing sugars and glucose increased at the end of the fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$ up to 2.25 mg/mL and 3.4 mM, respectively, whereas those at $15^{\circ}C$ were maintained at very low levels (0.18 mg/mL and 0.1 mM, respectively). Such limited supplement of sugars at $15^{\circ}C$ seemed to affect metabolism of yeast, resulting in different composition of organic acid. At $25^{\circ}C$, citric acid that was 73.4 ppm at the initial fermentation was consumed completely, whereas 20 ppm of citiric acid was remained at $15^{\circ}C$. In addition, acetic acid and lactic acid in Makgealli at $15^{\circ}C$ were 53% and 14% of those at $25^{\circ}C$.

The objective of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of Baeksulgi (BS) and Sulgidduk added with Makgeolli (MS, BS+ Makgeolli) during storage at $20{\pm}2$ for 3 days. Moisture contents of MS were significantly higher than those of BS during storage. Reducing sugar contents (%) were higher in MS. The pH values were 6.23 and 5.93, for BS and MS, respectively. The pH of MS was lower and thus indicated higher in acidity. The Hunter color L (lightness) and a (redness) values were higher for BS, whereas b (yellowness) value of MS was lower. In the texture analysis, hardness and chewiness of MS were found to be lower, whereas springiness, gumminess, and resilience were higher than those of MS. According to DSC (Differential scanning calorimeter) analysis, enthalpy of MS appeared to be lower than that of BS during storage, which suggests retrogradation of MS was delayed. The total phenol content was higher in MS. The $IC_{50}$ value of DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity was lower in MS, which means antioxidant activity increased in MS. Results of the preference test showed that appearance, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability of MS scored higher than those of BS. From these results, high quality of MS was derived from Makgeolli addition.
