To raise the added value of the fruits of Cudrania tricuspidata, Cudrania tricuspidata vinegar was produced and examined for its fermentation conditions. Forty nine acetic acid bacteria with resistance against acetic acid, ethanol, and sulfide as high acetic acid producers were isolated from fermented foods and identified as Acetobacter indonesiensis, A. cerevisiae, A. orientalis, A. tropicalis, A. fabarum, A. pasteurianus, and A. syzygii based on the results of the analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences. Among them, two GRAS strains, A. pasteurianus SCMA5 and SCMA6, were finally selected for the production of acetic acid. Optimal vinegar productions were obtained from the medium containing 40% (v/v) fruit juice of Cudrania tricuspidata and 5% (v/v) ethanol at $25^{\circ}C$ for 72 hr. The sensory panel preferred the vinegar fermented with the SCMA06 to that with the SCM05 strain. The radical scavenger capacity of DPPH was 53% higher than that of the control in the vinegar fermented with the SCMA06 strain. The ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor activity as an index of the antidiabetic drug showed 91% inhibition, which is higher than that of acabose. This study will be helpful for the scale-up production of vinegar with the fruit of Cudrania tricuspidata.

Onion vinegar has an undesirable flavor and taste that results from alcohol and acetic acid production from fermentation. In this study, we have used onion vinegar to develop an onion vinegar beverage with better sensory quality. The objective of this study was to determine the optimum blending ratio by using response surface methods to produce an onion vinegar beverage containing Yuza (Citrus junos Sieb ex Tanaka). The optimal formula for a fermented onion beverage was determined using a central composite design by the response surface methodology. The independent variables were obtained by regression analysis of the reaction surface of brown sugar, apple extracts and Yuza extracts. The optimum mixing ratio for onion vinegar:water:brown sugar:apple extracts:Yuza extracts was 6.0:77.6:4.9:9.2:2.3 (w/w). The actual overall acceptance was 7.08 under optimum conditions, which was close to the maximum predicted value of 6.96. The concentration of phenolic compounds, total flavonoids, and quercetin present in the onion vinegar beverage was 14.8 mg/100 g, 2.6 mg/100 g and 1.4 mg/100 g, respectively. The onion vinegar beverage showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium and Enterobacter aerogenes. It also showed antioxidant effects, with a DPPH radical inhibition rate of 18.2% and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity of 11.5%. In conclusion, the onion vinegar beverage described here seems to have nutritional value and potential biological activity.

The study was conducted to research the desirable method for fermentation of acidic beverage in the farmhouse using peach dropped at harvesting periods. Step by step fermentation(SSF), complex fermentation after crushing of the fruit(CCF), complex fermentation after slicing of the fruit(SCF) and natural fermenation added yeast only after slicing of the fruit(SYNF) were compared. The brief stationary fermentor for complex fermentation in the farmhouse was made in this experiment. The ability of acid production, flavor, taste and color were measured by sensory evaluation and mechanical methods. The quality of vinegar by SYNF was the most desirable, estimated by the color, the flavor, the content and composition of sugar, and of organic acids, and which was a suitable fermentation method for the farmhouse. The strains of acetobacter SYNF-1, 2 and 3 were isolated from the SYNF vinegar, and the SYNF-1 was a main strain.

This study is to establish optimizing condition of alcohol fermentation in vinegar production with aronia, to confirm whether this can be industrially used, and to compare and analyze a change in anti-oxidative activity and quality characteristic according to alcohol fermentation of aronia. The optimized conditions for alcohol fermentation were as follows: Saccharomyces cerevisiae 5645 of yeast strain, a 5% inoculum size, aronia juice with a brix value of 14, and a glucose content of 7%. As a result to conduct scale up with optimizing conditions of alcohol fermentation of aronia, 8 days (192 hrs) of total alcohol fermentation time and 7.4% of the final alcohol content. The harvest volume accounted for approximately 90.2% with a loss of about 2.8%. As a result of antioxidant test, anti-oxidative activity of alcohol fermented liquor is lower than anti-oxidative activity of aronia extract, because of the decrease of antioxidant by oxidation of the fermentation process. However, the decrease of tannin by the fermentation process reduces acerbity of aronia, so increases overall preference

We tested the possibility of utilizing Korea domestic wheat (winter wheat variety "keumkangmil") as a source of vinegar production. After saccharification of the whole-wheat flour with wheat malt, the saccharized liquid undergoes alcoholic fermentation, followed by acetic fermentation. Acetic acid bacterium A8, which showed the highest acetic acid production (4.56%) with domestic wheat as substrate, was selected from conventional vinegars. The strain A8 was identified as Acetobacter pasteurianus A8 through phylogenetic study using 16S rDNA sequencing analysis. The optimal condition for the malt enzyme was found to be $15^{\circ}C$ for germination periods of 6 days; its amylase activity was 608.4 U. Acetic acid production from domestic wheat substrate supplemented with 5% ethyl alcohol reached 5.8% after 24 days of static fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$ with a seeding rate of 5%.

Cabbage, the main material of coleslaw was not safely washed because it is uneven and tightly layered. In this study, vinegar was used to control the number of E. coli in cabbage for coleslaw production. When cabbage was soaked in 10% acetic acid, The number of bacteria was reduced by $10^{-3}$ was survived after 5min and $10^{-6}$ after 30min. After soaking, 15-20% (w/w of cabbage) of 10% acetic acid was remained in chopped cabbage. Spraying 10% acetic acid up to 3% of cabbage weight decreased the number of bacteria by 1/1000 after 60min. Spraying 3% (v/w of cabbage) of vinegar containing 10% acidity decreased the bacteria by 2/3 after 20min but no further decrease was observed. This result indicated that vinegar can be used only in the case that contamination is low.
