  • Five takju prepared using four types of nuruk (a traditional Korean fermentation starter made of malted wheat; non-cooked, naturally inoculated) labeled SH, SS, JJ, and SJ, and one type of koji (cooked, inoculated with an inoculum) labeled MN, were compared. Titratable acidity, pH, sugars, ethanol, amino acids, organic acids, and microbial changes in samples were measured, and the sensory properties were evaluated. Titratable acidity, alcohol, and organic acid content increased as sugar contents decreased. The overall ethanol concentration of all takju increased over time, reaching a maximum of 13.08-14.96% (w/v) at 7-21 days. The total amino acid contents of takju prepared with nuruk, except for one (SJ), were higher than the takju prepared with koji (MN). Lactic acid bacteria were also isolated from the starters. Sequence analysis of 16S rRNA genes (500 - 600 bp) of 223 isolates revealed that the major strains were in the genera of Leuconostoc, Weissella, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus.

  • In the current study, we prepared eighty-five different kinds of solvent fractions of rice wine lees and nuruk extracts and investigated their effects on cell viability and nitric oxide (NO) production in mouse RAW 264.7 cells. Among the treated solvent fractions, only three solvent fractions (KSD-E1-3, KSD-E2-3 and KSD-E4-3) significantly decreased NO production in LPS-activated RAW 264.7 cells without affecting cell viability. And, they also reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory genes such as COX-2, TNF-alpha and iNOS. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the inhibition of inflammation in (KSD-E4-3)-treated RAW 264.7 cells, we carried out oligo DNA microarray analysis using Agilent Mouse microarray. To confirm microarray data, 6 genes (IL-1F6, iNOS, IL-10, Fabp4, IL-1RN and CSF2) were selected and performed RT-PCR and quantitative real-time PCR analysis with gene specific primers. The results of RT-PCR and real-time PCR agreed with microarray data. Overall, our results suggest that rice wine lees can be a novel resource for the development of foods and drugs which possess anti-inflammatory activity.

  • Acetic acid bacteria strains were isolated from commercial natural vinegar. Ten isolated strains were identified using 16S rRNA gene sequencing data after evaluating the ethanol- and sulfur-tolerance. Eight of the strains isolated were identified as Acetobacter pasteurianus. A. pasteurianus JAC002, JAC005, and JAC008 strains, which showed a high ethanol tolerance, were selected for making "Makgeolli seed-vinegar". Rice wine vinegars were manufactured with the selected strains through fermentation, and their physicochemical properties and antimicrobial activities were evaluated. A. pasteurianus JAC002 strain showed the highest oxidation ability to acetic acid from ethanol on the twentieth day of fermentation, resulting in 4.21% total acidity, 3,791.77 mg% acetic acid content, and 2,931.78 mg% ethanol consumption content. Rice wine vinegar manufactured with the A. pasteurianus JAC002 strain showed increased antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus (KACC1927) and Escherichia coli (KACC10115). As a result, A. pasteurianus JAC002 strain was found to be the most suitable strain for "Makgeolli seed-vinegar".

  • Yakju(rice wine) was sterilized with high-voltage square-wave pulses of $1\;{\mu}s$ duration at various electric field strengths and frequencies on a serial multiple electrode pulsed electric field(PEF) treatment system consisted of 7 electrodes connected in series. The initial microbial counts of Yakju were $1.88{\times}10^3{\sim}2.13{\times}10^4$ CFU/mL for total aerobes, $1.55{\times}10^3{\sim}2.85{\times}10^4$ CFU/mL for lactic acid bacteria and $1.72{\times}10^3{\sim}2.39{\times}10^4$ CFU/mL for yeasts. The sterilization of microorganisms in Yakju was a first order reaction and the sterilization effect increased as the field strength and the frequency increased. The $D_{Hz}-value$ and the $D_{PEF}-value$ decreased with the electric field strength. Yeast showed lower $D_{PEF}-value$ than bacteria. Lactic acid bacteria showed lower $D_{PEF}-value$ than general aerobic bacteria under the electric field strength below 30 kV/cm, but higher ones under that above 40 kV/cm. The $Z_{PEF}-value$ of general aerobic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and yeast in Yakju were 39.4, 49.3 and 47.6 kV/cm, respectively. The PEF sterilization resulted in less changes in color and sensory properties than heat sterilization, and the PEF treated Yakju showed superior quality to the heat treated one. The commercial sterilization of Yakju was accomplished with 2-cycle treatment on the tested serial PEF treatment system.

  • Yogurt was prepared with different substitution ratio [10, 20, 30, and 50% (w/w)] of skim milk with enzymatically saccharified Korean rice wine lees powder (eKRWLP) and fermented with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. Fermentation characteristics were evaluated in terms of acid production (pH and titratable acidity) and viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria. The pH of yogurts decreased with increasing eKRWLP substitution ratio of skim milk. After 12 h fermentation, titratable acidities of eKRWLP substitution and control (yogurt made without eKRWLP) were 0.84~1.04% and 0.93%, respectively. The titratable acidities of yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio increased than that of the control yogurt, but titratable acidities of yogurts of 30 and 50% substitution ratio decreased. After 9 h fermentation, the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell were increased to 8.18~8.24 log CFU/g in all yogurts. In sensory evaluation, there were similar preference for eKRWLP yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio and the control. When eKRWLP substitution and control yogurts fermented for 9 h were incubated at $4^{\circ}C$, their pHs and titratable acidities were slightly changed but the number of viable lactic acid bacteria were well maintained above $10^7CFU/g$ for 11 days in yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio among eKRWLP substitution yogurts. These results suggest that eKRWLP can be used as substituent of skim milk and the optimum substitution ratio is around 10~20%.

  • The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Korean rice wine residue (RWR) on the growth performance and blood profiles of Hanwoo steers in the fattening stage. In situ and in vivo experiments were conducted to analyze rumen fermentation characteristics and total tract digestibility, respectively. Three cannulated Hanwoo steers (mean body weight: 448 ± 30 kg) were used in both analyses. The growth performance of 27 experimental animals in the fattening stage (initial body weight: 353.58 ± 9.76 kg) was evaluated after 13 months of feeding. The animals were divided into three treatment groups (n = 9/group). The treatments comprised total mixed ration (TMR) only (CON), TMR + 10% RWR (10% RWR), and TMR + 15% RWR (15% RWR). The diets of equal proportions were fed daily at 08:00 and 18:00 h based on 2% of the body weight. The animals had free access to water and trace mineral salts throughout the experiment. Supplementation of 15% RWR significantly decreased (p < 0.05) the rumen fluid pH compared with the control treatment, but there was no significant difference in the total volatile fatty acid concentration. It also significantly increased (p < 0.05) dry matter digestibility compared with the other treatments. The total weight gain and average daily gain of the animals in the RWR-supplemented groups were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than those in the control group. Furthermore, the feed intake and feed efficiency of the RWR-supplemented groups were higher than those of the control group. Supplementation of RWR did not affect the alcohol, albumin, glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein concentrations, and aspartate aminotransferase and alanine transaminase activities in the blood; these parameters were within the normal range. The high-density lipoprotein and creatinine concentrations were significantly higher in the 15% RWR group, whereas the blood urea nitrogen concentration was significantly higher in the 10% RWR group than in the other groups. These results suggest that TMR with 15% RWR can serve as an alternate feed resource for ruminants.

  • For the production of Korea traditional cereal wine makgeolli, a rice fermentation starter nuruk was Rhizopus oryaze CCS01 commercial nuruk. The carbohydrate content of rice nuruk was higher, the levels of moisture, ash, crude protein, and crude fat were lower. In particular, the saccharifying activity of rice nuruk was 2.2 times higher than commercial nuruk. pH, alcohol, and viable yeast cells of makgeolli made rice nuruk were higher than those of makgeolli made commercial nuruk. In contrast, the levels of acidity, $^{\circ}Brix$, viable lactic acid bacteria (LAB) cells, and browning of makgeolli made rice nuruk were lower than those of makgeolli made commercial nuruk, the alcohol content of glutinous rice (GUR) makgeolli made rice nuruk higher other samples. These results suggest that rice nuruk R. oryzae CCS01 make new type cereal makgeolli.

  • Rice production in Korea began to rise significantly after 1970. Rice is the dominant food in Korea and most of the rice production (about 95%) is consumed as cooked rice. it provides over 4,000Kj of energy per capita per day. Apparent rice availability in 2000, 93.6Kg of milled rice per person annually. The non-allergenic character of rice offers a sound basis for development of products for markets for all age groups. Whole grains are washed rice, coated rice, enriched rice in Korea. Utilization of rice as food can be categorized three categories in Korea; direct food use, processed foods, and brewing. Rice for direct consumption include regular whole grain, precooked rice, brown rice and specialty products such as aseptic cooked rice, retort cooked rice and rice burger. Rice used for processed foods includes that for cereal, soup, baby food, snack, cake, noodle, brown rice tea, and minor unclassified uses. Rice use for brewing is for the production of fermented rice wine. The use of rice for direct food is by for the greatest of the three uses. Although direct food accounts for the largest domestic consumption, a significant quantity of rice is used in processed products. The use of rice by-products as human food should not be over looked. Utilization of by products(rice germ, rice bran) requires a specialized technology. Typical type of rice is black rice. When cooked, black rice gives a black color to cooked rice. Glutinous rice performs specific functions in several commercial products such as dessert, gravis, cake and snack. Rice starch production is quite limited because of the high cost of making of starch. Rice processed products in Korea are occupied small parts of total rice production compared to Japan. Rice cake (Garadog) is the principal from of rice product consumed in Korea. Rice cake and snack is usually prepared from non-glutinous milled by washing, grinding, steaming, cooling and packaging. Rice cake will be continued to be a major rice product in Korea. Rice products represent a means to study variety differences in rice grain quality, since the processing magnifies differences not normally detected from more boiling. Recently, rice processing companies in Korea are about 400 ones which uses rice about 160,000tons. New rice processed products and modified traditional products must be developed and diversified with high quality and processing properties of rice processed products are improved.

  • This study was carried out to compare the physicochemical characteristics and sensory quality of Sogokju (Korean traditional rice wine) prepared with waxy rice varieties. Among tested waxy rice varieties, highest protein contents (8.11%) was observed in cv. Sangjuchal, and highest whiteness and L-value were observed in cv. Hwaseonchal, while no significant differences in gelatinization temperature could be observed among tested varieties, and cv. Boseokchal and Sinseonchal exhibited higher breakdown viscosity compared to the others. The alcohol contents of Sogokju with waxy rice varieties ranges from 13.0 to 13.4%, and the brix degree and turbidity were within the range of 20.5 to 24.6 $^{\circ}Bx$, and 0.0344 to 0.0530, respectively. The highest L-value (6.90), b-value (l.45), pH (4.79), total acidity (0.8384%), and glucose content (10.843 g/100 ml) could be observed in Sogokju made with cv. Sangjuchal. The organic acids such as succinic acid, malic acid, citric acid and oxalic acid could be detected in Sogokju. Although no variety-dependant differences in appearance, aroma, and taste could be found in sensory evaluation, Sogokju made with cvs. Sinseonchal, Haepyeongchal, and Hwaseonchal showed higher overall quality than Sogokju made with cv. Dongjinchal, which is most widely used for Sogokju used for Sogokju production nowadays.

  • In this paper, twenty-five kinds of food presented in Sooljip(戌集) 5 and 6 of Food collections of 'Kosa-sibi Jip(攷事十二集)' have been classified into four : Staple food, subsidiary food, Tuck(rice cake) and Han-gwa(Korean confectionery), and Tang-jng and tea. Cooking processes have been examined and scientifically analyzed in terms of cooking, Fourteen kinds of Jook (thick gruel with cereal) as well as Urak-Jook were presented among the methods of making Jook, one of staple foods. Milk and ground rice were boiled together into Urak-Jook, which was nutritious because of carbohydrate, added to milk. Hong-sa Myun was mode of ground shrimps, ground bean, ground rice and flour which were kneaded together. It was a nutritiously balanced food. Nineteen kinds of Kimchi presented in this book were classified by the recipes. The five of Jook-soon Ja, U-so Ja, Tam-bok Ja and Jo-gang were made by adding red malt and cereals(boiled rice or candies). Jo-gang, Jo-ga and Jo-gwa-chae were made by adding salt and rice wine. With salt and fermenters added, eight were made. Chim-jup-jeo-ga was made by adding Jang(soy-bean sauce) and the inner chaff of wheat instead of salt. The four of Ka-za-san, Hwang-gwa-san, Tong-gwa-san and Jo-gang were made by adding salt and vinegar. Jo-gang was made by adding salt, rice wine, residue of rice wine and candies. The four of Kae-mal-ga, Ku-cho-chim-chae, Un-gu-hwa and Suk-hwa-chim-chim-chae were made by adding salt and spices. San-got-Kimchi was made without salt. San-got-Kimchi and Suk-hwa-chim-chae were made originally in Korea. Suk-hwa-chim-chae, in particular, was first classified as a kind of Kimchi in this book and oysters were added, which is notable. Pork could be preserved longer when smoked oven the weak fire of thatch ten days and nights. Dog meat was sauced and placed on the bones in a pot. A porcelain was put on the top of the pot. Flour paste sealed the gap between the porcelain and the pot. Some water was poured into the porcelain, and the meat was steamed, with two or three thatched sacks burned, which was a distilled dry steaming. This process has been in use up to now. Various cooking methods of chicken were presented from in Umsik-dimi-bang to in Chosun Musang Sinsik Yori Jebup. These methods were ever present regardless of ages. Such measuring units as Guin(斤) and Nyang(兩) were most frequently used in cooking processes of this book, except in case of Jang(soy bean sauce), vinegar and liquor. Twenty eight kinds of kitchenware and cookers were used, of which porcelains wee most used and pans and sieves followed. The scientific eight cooking methods were as follows. First, salt was refined through saturated solution. Next, it was recommended Hong-sa Myun containing shrimps should not be taken along with pork, which is thought to be a proper diet in terms of cholesterol contained by shrimps and pork. Third, meat was coated with thin gruel and quickly roasted and cleared of the dried gruel membrane, which prevented nutrients from exuding and helped to make the meat well-done. Fourth, The fruit of paper mulberry trees has the protease which can soften meat. Therefore when meat was boiled with th fruit of paper mulberry trees, it can be softened easily. Fifth, pork was smoked over the weak fire of thatch. Sixth, in cooking dog meat, distilled dry steaming raised the boiling point and made it possible to preserve meat longer. Seventh, in boiling the sole of a bear, lime was added, which made meat tender by making the pH lower or higher than that of raw meat. Finally, in boiling down rice gluten, a porcelain in the pot prevented boiling over the brim, which is applied to pots in which to boil medical herbs.
