This study was designed to investigate quality characteristics and conditions of acetic acid fermentation of kiwi vinegar following addition of oligosaccharide. During the acid fermentation alcohol concentration and total acidity were shown to be 6% and 1.0%, respectively, with the highest acetic acid yield. Acetic acid fermentation of kiwi following addition of oligosaccharide showed the highest acetic acid yield with 15% oligosaccharide. Free forms of sugars in kiwi vinegar were detected to be fructose, glucose and maltose. Organic acid of kiwi vinegar were malic, lactic, acetic, citric and succinic acid. Total content of organic acid was shown to be the highest with 15% oligosaccharide. Mineral content was shown to be lower when oligosaccharide amount was increased. In conclusion, oligosaccharide addition has an insignificant effect on acetic acid fermentation of kiwi, and was evaluated to be suitable at 15%.

Influence of acetic acid on xylitol production from xylose using Candida parapsilosis KFCC 10875 was investigated at the different concentrations of acetic acid. Acetic acid was totally consumed below 1.0 g/l of its concentration, whereas partially consumed above 3.0 g/l and remained in the medium during xylitol fermentation. Cell growth, xylose consumption, and xylitol production decreased when acetic acid concentration was increased. Specific growth rate of cell and specific consumption rate of xylose also decreased with increasing the concentration of acetic acid. However, the xylitol yield from xylose and specific production rate of xylitol were maximum at 1.0 g/l of acetic acid. The inhibitory effect of acetic acid on xylitol fermentation increased when pH was decreased.

To effectively isolate acetic acid bacteria for producing makgeolli vinegar, various products were researched, and Acetobacter pasteurianus CK-1, a strain that is excellent in acetic acid production, was finally isolated. The optimal growth temperature of the isolated strain was confirmed to be 30℃, and it grew well in the pH range of 5.5~6.5, with optimal growth at pH 6. A. pasteurianus CK-1 had the most active proliferation when the initial ethanol concentration in the medium was 4%, and growth was possible even at an ethanol concentration of 7%. When inoculating the isolated strain into makgeolli to induce acetic acid fermentation, the pH at the beginning of fermentation was 3.54, which was gradually lowered to 2.77 after 18 days of fermentation. The acidity was 0.75% at the beginning of fermentation and gradually started to increase from the 4th day of fermentation. The final acidity at the end of fermentation was 5.54%. In the vinegar fermented by inoculating A. pasteurianus CK-1, acetic acid content was detected to be as high as 3,575.7±48.6 mg%, and the malic acid and citric acid contents were 2,150.8±27.6 and 55.8±3.7 mg%, respectively. Further, it was confirmed that the content and ratio of the organic acids produced significantly differed depending on the type of inoculated bacterial strain. During acetic acid fermentation, the populations of yeast and A. pasteurianus CK-1 were inversely changed. In the initial stage of fermentation, yeast dominated, and after 10 days of fermentation, A. pasteurianus CK-1 slowly proliferated and reached stationary phase.

The study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of peach vinegar by parallel-complex fermentations. The vinegars prepared by using Changbnag-Chosang and Yumung peach cultivars added with 7, 10, and 13% sugaring concentrations were examined. The rate of increase in alcohol degree and titratable acidity, and that of decrease in soluble solids showed higher at Yumyung peach than at Changbang-chosang. Alcohol and acetic acid fermentation by paralle-complex fermentation were performed better in Yumyung peach than Changbang -chosang. but the fermentation of Yumyung showed active alcohol fermentation in the early stage, and active acetic acetic acid fermentation in the late stage. Quality of the vinegar prepared with Yumyung peach was better than that of Changbang-chosang, which were evaluated by acetic acid contents , peach taste and odor in the vinegar, and overall taste. The fermentation was accelerated with an increase in sugaring , concentrating but overall taste was best in 10 % sugaring.

In this study, silk fabrics was dyed with sappan wood extracts fermented for 5 and 15 days, respectively, and then the dyeability, durability and the functionality of the dyed silk were investigated. Before dyeing, the silk was pretreated with chitosan-acetic acid solution or chitosan acetic acid and illite blend solution. Thereafter, UV-Visible transmittance, color, fastness, antimicrobial activity, and the FIR emissivity were analyzed. As a result, the K/S value was higher in the samples that were not pre-treated or fermented. Regardless of fermentation, the lightfastness was not significantly different. The color fastness to washing was slightly better when the samples were pretreated with chitosan-acetic acid and illite, and then dyed with extracts fermented 5 days. In addition, all samples showed high antimicrobial activity of 99.9%, regardless of the fermentation. Far-infrared emissivity was confirmed to be slightly increased by the illite and chitosan-acetic acid solution treatment compared to the untreated sample.

The effect of acetic acid formation deficiency on recombinant E. coli fermentation was investigated using a mutant strain deficient in acetic acid formation. A mutant strain which does not grow under anaerobic conditions was isolated. The acetic acid production in this strain was negligible in aerobic batch fermentation. The cloned-gene expression in the mutant strain was higher than the wild-type strain. Fed-batch fermentations with controlled specific growth rates were carried out in order to compare the cloned-gene expression between the wild-type and the mutant strains. The expression decreased along with the specific growth rate in both strains. The cloned-gene expression in the mutant strain was 60% higher than in the wild-type strain at the same specific growth rate.

Habanero red pepper (HRP)-fermented liquid with Acetobacter pasteurianus SRCM101474 was prepared, the quality characteristics measured and bioactivity analysis were measured. As the fermentation period increased, the number of viable cells increased, pH decreased, and acidity increased. After fermentation, the organic acid content of HRP was confirmed to be acetic acid with the highest content of 33413.54 ppm. Analysis of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin showed that the increase was significantly raised as acetic acid fermentation progressed. The total phenol and flavonoid contents as well as the antioxidant activity increased as the fermentation period passed. In addition, α-glucosidase inhibitory and pancreatic lipase inhibitory activities were significantly increased after fermentation. It was confirmed that it can be used as a functional material by measuring the physiological activities of antioxidant, anti-obesity, and anti-diabetes through fermentation, and the possibility of development as a spicy material and application product using it as capsaicin increases after fermentation.
