We conducted this study to develop a high value black garlic Makgeolli that was made of black garlic extract (BGE) and Sulgidduk. We investigated the quality characteristics of Makgeolli made with three different combinations of materials (control, Sulgidduk only; A, Sulgidduk combined with 15% BGE and water; B, Sulgidduk combined with 15% BGE instead of water). The pH of A and B were higher than the control, but the titratable acidity of A and B were lower. The sugar and alcohol contents of A and B increased during fermentation. A similar growth pattern was observed invisible cells, yeast, and lactic acid bacteria in all three Makgeolli. In A and B, the quantity of lactic acid bacteria was relatively higher than the yeast. The L value (lightness) was highest in the control, and the a value (redness) and b value (yellowness) were higher in A and B. The antioxidant properties of the three types of Makgeolli were evaluated using DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis[3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid]) radical scavenging activities. In these assays, B showed significantly higher radical scavenging activities than the other two Makgeolli.

We investigated the brewing and fermenting characteristics of makgeolli produced from high-yielding rice varieties. We used the high-yielding indica rice varieties, Anda and Dasan 1, and the japonica varieties, Deuraechan and Boramchan. Our results showed that the rice protein level was the highest in makgeolli produced from Anda ($7.5{\pm}0.2%$), while the amylose level was the lowest in makgeolli produced from the mid- to late-maturing japonica varieties (Deuraechan, $18.9{\pm}0.7%$; Boramchan, $18.9{\pm}1.4%$). Samples of makgeolli produced from Anda, Deuraechan, and Boramchan by using the Ipguk (Koji) method had an alcohol content of 16.6-17.4% on completion of fermentation. By contrast, makgeolli produced from Dasan 1 had an alcohol content of 14.3%; further, the makgeolli differed significantly in the sensory test and was scored as excellent regarding comprehensive preference. For makgeolli produced by using the uncooked rice fermentation method, samples produced from the indica varieties, Anda and Dasan 1, had lower alcohol contents (17.2% and 17.0%, respectively) and higher total acidity levels (0.33% and 0.31%, respectively) than did samples produced from the japonica varieties, Deuraechan and Boramchan (0.28% for both). In the sensory test, samples produced from Anda and Dasan 1 performed significantly better regarding scent, swallowing, and comprehensive preference.

In this study, we investigated the microbial flora changes in Gugija-Liriope tuber Makgeolli during fermentation and storage periods. We brewed Gugija-Liriope tuber Makgeolli for a week through twostage fermentations and stored the fermentation broth for a month at $4^{\circ}C$ or $20^{\circ}C$. We collected the samples periodically and analyzed microbial flora changes using viable cell counts and PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). Yeast viable cells were seen to have decreased to 13% of pre-storage levels after storage for 15 days at $20^{\circ}C$; however significant changes were not observed during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Prolongation of storage time dramatically decreased the availability of viable cells. Yeast viable cell numbers had decreased to 38% of pre-storage levels at $4^{\circ}C$ and 4.8% at $20^{\circ}C$ after storage for 30 days. The results of the DGGE profile for yeast showed that Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces sp. were the predominant strains at the beginning of fermentation and throughout the whole period of storage. Viable cell counts for total bacteria had decreased to 36% of pre-storage levels after storage for 15 days but did not significantly change for the full 30 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Similarly, viable cell counts for bacteria had decreased to 5% while viable cell numbers did not significantly change for the full 30 days at $20^{\circ}C$. Viable cell counts for lactic acid bacteria were performed and the results were similar to those for total bacteria. The results of the DGGE profile for bacteria showed that Weissella cibaria was the predominant strain at the beginning of fermentation. However it had disappeared by the end of fermentation, and Lactobacillus fermentum and Pediococcus acidilactici became the predominant species during storage.

The aim of this research was to analyze makgeolli with nineteen kinds of rice and koji. Among 19 rice, 18 rice were domestic products and one rice was an import. For the properties of koji made with 19 kinds of rice, the acidity was over 5.0 and the saccharogenic power was more than 60SP. Makgeolli brewed with 19 kinds of rice and the koji of each rice were analyzed for alcohol contents, pH, total acidity and solid contents during fermentation. After fermentation, raw liquor's alcohol degree was set 6.0%, the pH ranged 3.47-3.76, the total acidity 0.27-0.44%, the solid contents and the reducing sugar were $2.7-4.6^{\circ}$Bx and 2.49-6.01 mg/mL. Organic acid was detected 5 kinds (oxalic, malic, lactic, acetic, succinic acid) and free sugars were found such as glucose, maltose and fructose. Hwayoung, Hopum and Sura were higher than the residue in 15 kinds of rice in the preference test.

Makgeolli is made from rice or flour, yeast, and nuruk, a fermentation starter. The flavor of makgeolli is affected by sugars, amino acids, organic acids and volatile flavor compounds produced by various microorganisms. In this study, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from unsterilized makgeolli samples collected from several provinces in Korea, and then later identified. Under anaerobic conditions, LAB density ranged from $5.0{\times}10^6$ to $1.5{\times}10^8CFU/mL$; yeast density ranged from $2.5{\times}10^7$ to $1.5{\times}10^8CFU/mL$. Of the LAB isolated from makgeolli, 1,126 were analyzed using restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis of 16S rRNA, which allowed for classification into five groups. Of the 1,126 LABs tested, 130 produced ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA).

To investigate the characteristics of $Gammakgeolli$ to which processed forms of persimmon were added, $Gokkam$, $Gammalaengi$, whole powder, peel powder, and paste were used as various processed forms. The moisture, total polyphenol, and soluble-solid contents of the persimmon used for making $Gammakgeolli$ showed a big difference according to the processed form of persimmon, and influenced the total polyphenol and alcohol contents of the $Gammakgeolli$. The pH and total acid of the $Gammakgeolli$, which were 3.7~4.1 and 0.20~0.29% (w/v), respectively, were similar to those of commercial $Makgeolli$. The amino acidity increased on the fifth day after fermentation from that on the third day, and showed relatively high levels in the whole power, peel power, and paste. The volatile-acid contents of the $Gammakgeolli$s were within the range of 80~100 ppm and showed the highest level in the persimmon-paste-treated sample. Among the major organic acids of $Gammakgeolli$ (oxalic, citric, tartaric, malic, succinic, lactic, and acetic acid), lactic acid had the highest concentration. The $Gammakgeolli$ to which hole power or paste was added showed a high level of yellowness and a good color in the sensatory evaluation. In the sensory evaluation (selection rate) of the taste and overall acceptability, the $Gammakgeolli$ treated with $Gammalaengi$ was the best.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of yogurt containing 5.0%, 10.0%, and 20.0% rice-wine (RW), which was added during the preparation of yogurt. Changes in pH, total titratable acidity (TA), bacterial lactic acid, yeast population, viscosity, whey separable phenomenon, and cumulative gas production were monitored during the fermentation and storage of yogurt. The pH was decreased following all treatments, and TA and viscosity were gradually increased during fermentation. The pH of RW yogurt was lower than that of the control sample, and TA was higher than the control during fermentation. The viscosity of yogurt containing 5.0% and 10.0% RW yogurt was higher than that of the control sample at 0~6 h. Cumulative gas production and whey separable phenomenon increased as the amount of RW added increased during fermentation. Viscosity was higher in control yogurt than in RW yogurt during storage. The total acceptability, texture, odor, color, sweet taste, and yogurt taste were higher in the control than in all RW groups.

Recently, several health benefits of rice wine, makgeolli, were known due to the interest on the traditional Korean liquor and the researches on the rice wine are increasing. Organic acids produced during the process of rice wine fermentation play important roles in the taste and flavor. In this study, we have examined the optimal conditions for lactic acid production in rice koji as a carbon source. Skim milk was also used as a supplementary ingredient for the optimization of lactic acid fermentation. Bacterial growth of Lactobacillus sakei was monitored under this condition. The pH, acidity of the culture and the ethanol tolerance of this bacterium were also tested. Through these experiments, we were able to optimize the growth condition of lactic acid bacteria by the addition of skim milk. This was also able to affect the change of pH, acidity, sugar concentration and alcohol tolerance, which might contribute to the improvement of the quality of rice wine. The optimal condition for the growth was 2 days with 10% (w/v) of skim milk concentration. With these results, it was confirmed that rice koji was an effective carbon source for the growth of lactic acid bacteria.

Lactic acid bacteria showing alginate-degrading and cellulolytic activity were isolated and identified as a starter for seaweed fermentation. A total of 331 strains of lactic acid bacteria isolated from various Korean traditional foods, such as Kimchi, Jeotgal, and Makgeolli, were examined alginate-degrading and cellulolytic activity by the plate assay method. Six strains showed strong alginate-degrading and cellulolytic activity among the isolated 331 strains. Among these six strains, four strains (strain No. 162, 164, 192, and 196) showed probiotic properties (antimicrobial activity, tolerance to simulated gastric juice, artificial bile acid, and NaCl). No. 192 strain (Gram-positive cocci, catalase negative, and homofermentative) showed the best probiotic properties among selected strains and was identified as Enterococcus faecium by 16S rRNA sequencing. Strain No. 192 (E. faecium) showed the best growth and antioxidative activity during seaweed (sea mustard and sea tangle) fermentation for 72 h at $37^{\circ}C$ among the four selected strains.
