Physicochemical properties of Fujian Yongchun aged vinegar (FYAV) and Shanxi mature vinegar (SMV) were compared in terms of the fermentation methods applied and aging periods (3, 5, 8, and 10 years), and combined E-nose/E-tongue analyses were performed to assess their flavors. Compared with submerged fermentation-derived FYAV, solid-state fermentation-derived SMV showed higher values of pH, brix, soluble solids, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity, but not total acidity or total organic acids. Aging period resulted in an increase in pH, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity. Principal component analysis based on E-tongue/E-nose analyses was performed to distinguish between the vinegars produced by different fermentation methods and under aging periods. Solid-state fermentation and an aging process were considered good techniques for vinegar brewing, considering the various organic acids and high levels of total phenolics and antioxidant activity.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of solid-state fermentation on soybean using three microbial strains under four different fermentation times. Soybean was fermented for 12, 24, 36 or 48 hours with highly proteolytic microbes, either Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (BA), B. subtilis (BS), or B. subtilis var. natto (BN), and levels of total protein concentration, protein distribution, and antioxidant activity were analyzed. Total protein was highest in the BS 12 h group (9.21 ㎍·µL^-1) and lowest in BN 48 h (6.80 ㎍·µL^-1), respectively (p < 0.001). Furthermore, three microbes decomposed large molecular weight proteins as well as major allergens of soybean such as β-conglycinin, Gly m Bd 30K, and glycinin. Each treatment group showed the highest degradation rate at 48 h fermentation and among the three microbes, BS showed a relatively higher degradation rate. The radical scavenging ability, known as an indicator of antioxidant activity, showed a significant increase in all treatment groups except BA 24 h. The results from this study suggest that protein concentration, and degradation and antioxidant activity were affected by different types of microbial trains and fermentation period and that B. subtilis fermentation might be the most effective way to increase nutritional and functional properties of soybean.

This trial was conducted to determine the effects of feeding a diet containing solid-state fermented rapeseed meal on performance, nutrient digestibility, intestinal ecology and intestinal morphology of broiler chickens. A mixed liquid culture, containing approximately 5 log cfu/ml Lactobacillus fermentum, Enterococcus faecium, Saccharomyces cerevisae and Bacillus subtilis was prepared in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. A basal substrate (BS) containing 75% rapeseed, 24% wheat bran and 1% brown sugar was mixed with the liquid culture in a ratio of 10:3. Over the 30-day fermentation, isothiocyanates were reduced from 119.6 to 14.7 mmol/kg. A total of 168, day-old male Arbor Acres broiler chicks were assigned to one of three dietary treatments including a corn-soybean meal based control diet as well as two experimental diets in which the control diet was supplemented with 10% of the BS containing unfermented rapeseed meal or 10% of the BS containing rapeseed meal subjected to solid state fermentation. There were 8 pens per treatment and 7 birds per pen. From days 19-21 and days 40-42, uncontaminated excreta were collected from each pen for digestibility determinations. In addition, digesta from the colon and ceca were collected to determine the number of lactobacilli, enterobacteria and total aerobes. The middle sections of the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum were collected for intestinal morphology. Over the entire experimental period (d 1-42), the weight gain and feed conversion of birds fed fermented rapeseed meal were superior (p<0.05) to that of birds fed nonfermented rapeseed meal and did not differ from the soybean control. On day 42, birds fed fermented rapeseed meal had higher (p<0.05) total tract apparent digestibility coefficients for dry matter, energy, and calcium than birds fed non-fermented rapeseed meal. Colon and ceca digesta from broilers fed the fermented feed had higher (p<0.05) lactobacilli counts than birds fed the control and non-fermented rapeseed meal diets on day 21 and 42. Fermentation also improved (p<0.05) villus height and the villus height:crypt depth ratio in the ileum and jejunum on day 21 and 42. The results indicate that solid-state fermentation of rapeseed meal enhanced performance and improved the intestinal morphology of broilers and may allow greater quantities of rapeseed meal to be fed to broilers potentially reducing the cost of broiler production.

A mathematical model has been developed for describing the oxygen concentration during the exponential growth of microorganisms, in a static solid substrate bed supported on a tray fermentor. The model equations comprise of one partial differential equation for mass transfer and an ordinary differential equation of growth. After nondimensionlisation, analytical solution tn the model has been obtained by the method of Laplace transforms. An expression for critical thickness of bed is deduced from the model equation. The significance of the model in the design of tray fermentors is discussed. The validity of the discussion is verified by taking an illustration from the literature.

구름 버섯균(C. versicolor)를 고체배양(solid-substrate culture)하여 단백다당류를 생산하기 위한 각종조건을 검토하였다. 여러가지 고체재료가 이용될 수 있으나 배양 후 단백다당류의 열수추출 과정에서의 부적합성 등의 이유로 인하여 실질적으로 zeolite나 난 재배용 토양이 이용 가능한 천연고체 재료라고 볼 수 있다. Zeolite와 난 재배용 토양을 이용한 고체발효에서 단백다당류 생산에 미치는 탄소원의 영향을 검토한 결과 glucose, sucrose 및 starch에서 단백다당류 생산량이 높게 나타났으며, 질소원중에서는 bactosoytone과 peptone이 고체발효에 의한 단백다당류 생산에 가장 적합한 질소원으로 확인되었다. 단백다당류 생산을 위한 고체발효에서 최적 pH범위는 5-6이었고, 고체재료 100 g당 조단백다당류 생산량이 5-6 mg에 이르렀다. 배지조성별 단백다당류의 생산성 시험의 결과 C. versicolor의 최적배지 조성인 CVM에서 최고의 생산성을 보였으며, 종합적으로 균사성장에 적합한 조건에서 단백다당류의 생산성도 높다고 하겠다.

쌀대신에 보리를 이용한 Monascus 고상배양의 기본적인 발효 특성을 연구함을 통하여, 대규모 고상배양 시스템을 통한 천연 적색색소의 생산 가능성을 검토하고자 하였다. 색소의 생산은 고상배양 3일후부터 6일까지 꾸준한 증가추세를 나타내었다. 종균의 접종량이 6∼8%사이일 경우에는 배양후 60시간만에 색소생산이 시작되었으며, 접종량이 5%이하일 경우에는 색소생산이 70시간 이후로 늦어지는 것으로 나타났다. 보리 배지를 30∼40분 동안 증자할 경우에는 색소 발현 시점이 45시간 내외로 단축되었으며, 증자시간이 20분 이하일 경우에는 배지의 불충분한 호화로 인하여 색소생산 시점이 길어졌다. 공기공급량이 0.6∼0.8 vvm사이에서 홍국균의 생장 및 색소의 생산이 활발히 일어났고, 고상배지의 초기 pH를 6으로 조절했을 때 균사성장과 색소발현 능력이 가장 우수하였다 한편 고상배양으로 7일동안 발효한 홍국보리를 사용하여 식중독미생물에 대한 항균여부를 확인한 결과, Escherichia coli, Salmonella 수Phimurium의 생장을 저해함을 확인하였다. 이상과 같이, 보리를 원료로 한 대규모 고상발효 시스템을 활용함으로써 Monascus sp. 유래의 천연색소 및 대사산물의 대량생산 가능성을 확인하였다.

Aspergillus niger가 액체발효(SF) 와 고체발효의 시험 규모 조건에서의 셀루로오스계 효소의 생산을 비교하였다. 액체배지는 0.5% 셀루로오스가 함유된 Czapek Dox를 사용하였고, 고체 지지체로 사용한 쌀겨는 셀루로오스로 적시고 SSF 발효를 위하여 Czapek Dox 배지를 첨가하였다. CMCase, 여지 paperase 그리고 ${\beta}$-Glucosidase 의 생산을 경시적으로 측정하였다. SSF 배양에서의 3일간의 효소 생산량은 SF 에서의 7일간 배양과 같았다. 따라서 SSF 조건이 SF 배양 조건보다 많은 효소를 생산함을 알 수 있었다. SSF 조건에서 FPase, CMCase 및 ${\beta}$-glucosidase의 최대 활성은 0.40, 0.62 및 0.013 U/ml 였으나, SF 조건에서는 0.13, 0.06 및 0.0013 U/ml의 활성을 나타내었다. 결론적으로 Aspergillus niger에 의해 생산되는 셀루로오스계 효소의 생산을 위해서는 SSF 발효 조건의 선택이 유리하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

To produce novel cheese-like fermented soybean, the solid-state fermentation of roasted soybean flour (RSF) was performed using 1.0% inoculum Bacillus subtilis HA and Lactobacillus plantarum, with the initial 60% substrate moisture for 10 hr at $42^{\circ}$, resulting in pH 6.5, 0.82% acidity, 3.5% mucilage, 14.3 unit/g protease activity, 7.6 unit/g fibrinolytic activity, 216 mg% tyrosine content and $1.7{\times}10^{10}$ CFU/g of viable cell counts. After the second lactic acid fermentation with 10~30% skim milk powder, the fermented RSF resulted in an increase in acidity with 1.64~1.99%, tyrosine content with 246~308 mg% and protease activity in the range of 5.2~17.5 unit/g and 0.966 water activity. Viable cell counts as probiotics indicated $1.6{\times}10^8$ CFU/g of B. subtilis and $7.3{\times}10^{10}$ CFU/g of L. plantarum. The firmness of the first fermented RSF with 2,491 $g{\cdot}{\o}mm^{-1}$ greatly decreased to 1,533 $g{\cdot}{\o}mm^{-1}$ in the second fermented RSF, although firmness was slightly increased by adding a higher content of skim milk. The consistency of the second fermented RSF also decreased greatly from 55,640 to 3,264~ 3,998 in the presence of 10~30% skim milk. The effective hydrolysis of soy protein and skim milk protein in the fermented RSF was confirmed. Thus, the second fermented RSF with a sour taste and flavor showed similar textural properties to commercial soft cheese.

This study focused on the production of high quality compost for the growth of aero-thermophilic fungi, which has a promoting effect on the growth rate and production of oyster mushrooms. The automated solid-state bioreactor system was designed on the basis of a Three-Phase-One system, which controls the serial steps of prewetting, pasteurization and fermentation processes. High numbers of thermophilic fungi and bacteria were recovered from the mushroom composts prepared by this solid-state bioreactor. The rates of composting process were depended on physical as well as chemical factors. Among these factors, the parameters of moisture content and temperature were found to be particularly important. In our automated system, constant levels of moisture content, temperature and ventilation via mixing were provided by a centralized control apparatus including PLC, water tank and water jacket systems. These features induced higher microbiological activity of aero-thermophiles.

Aspergillus oryzae KCCM 11372 was used to enhance the production of β-glucan using humidity control strategies. Under conditions of 60% humidity, solid-state fermentation (SSF) increased the yields of enzymes (amylase and protease), fungal biomass (ergosterol), and β-glucan. The maximum concentrations obtained were 14800.58 U/g at 72 h, 1068.14 U/g at 120 h, 1.42 mg/g at 72 h, and 12.0% (w/w) at 72 h, respectively. Moreover, the β-glucan containing fermented brown rice (β-glucan-FBR) extracts at concentrations of 25-300 ㎍/ml was considered noncytotoxic to 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. We then studied the inhibitory effects of the extracts on fat droplet formation in 3T3-L1 cells. As a result, 300 ㎍/ml of β-glucan-FBR extracts showed a high inhibition of 38.88% in lipid accumulation. Further, these extracts inhibited adipogenesis in the 3T3-L1 adipocytes by decreasing the expression of C/EBPα, PPARγ, aP2, and GLUT4 genes.
