To optimize the preparation process of Jeung-Pyun, an experiment was derived, using a central composite design, to fmd the optimal mixing conditions. The addition of Paecilomyces japonica powder, the volume of Tak-Ju and the second fermentation time were independent variables, with the pH, volume, color, sensory and texture properties of the Jeung-Pyun selected as response variables. As the Paecilomyces japonica powder and fermentation time were increased, the b values and volume after the second fermentation also increased. The color of the Jeung-Pyun became deeper with increases in the Paecilomyces japonica powder and fermentation time, and was deepest on the addition of 30% Tak-Ju. The pH increased with increasing fermentation time of the Jeung-Pyun, and on the addition of 3% Paecilomyces japonica rapidly increased more than with the other groups. The optimal mixing conditions for the best quality Jeung-Pyun, with restricted conditions above a b value of 3, a color intensity above 3, and a volume of 40mQ and a pH of 4.02-4.04 after the second fermentation, were 4.0%, 20% and 45 mins for the Paecilomyces japonica powder, Tak-Ju and second fermentation time, respectively.

The effect of concentration of yeast extract and NH4Cl in the mediun of alcohol fermentation of S. cerevisiae ATCC 24858 on the fermentation characteristics, specific growth rate, sugar conversion, alcohol productivity was experimentally investigated. Regardless of initial sugar concentrations, the values of the above three characteristics increased with augument of concentration of yeast extract. However, the increasing tendency ceased above a certain concentration. The concentration of NH4Cl had little effect on the change of the three characteristics. The functional relationships between the concentration of yeast extract and the characteristics were different according to the initial sugar concentrations, but those between the ratio of yeast extract concentration to initial sugar concentration and the characteristics could be expressed as same forms respectively regardless of initial sugar concentrations. Also the values of the three characteristics approached to the maximum values around 0.085 of the ratio, but did not increase any more above 0.1 of the ratio. We have come to conclusion that the optimum ratio of the yeast extract concentration to the initial sugar concentration was about 0.085 and the ratio should not be decided as greater than 0.1 in the medium of alcohol fermentation of S. cerevisiae ATCC 24858.

The rheological characteristics of the ethanol fermentation broth were pseudoplastic when the yeast concentration was above 150g/L. From the viewpoint of rheological properties, the cell concentration below 150g/L was recommended for ethanol fermentation. Since the cell floc was formed at the cell concentration of 100 g/L, yeast cells were not much plugged in the pores of the membrane. The cell concentration above 100g/L was desirable when considering the permeability of the membrane. Since ethanol productivity was the highest when the cell concentration was 130 g/L in cell recycled ethanol fermentation. The optimal dilution rate was determined at 1.3 h-1 at constant cell mass of 130g/L. At this dilution rate, the ethanol productivity and glucose conversion ratio ware 80 g/L$\cdot$h and 0.94, respectively.

In ethanol fermentation, by-products such as glycerol, acetic acid and lactic acid are produced along with ethanol. The effects of culture conditions on cell growth ethanol production and by-products biosynthesis were investigated in ethanol fermentation using S. cerevisiae. With increasing aeration rate or yeast extract concentration, ethanol and by-products biosynthesis decreased while final cell mass increased. With increasing glucose concentration or decreasing temperature, final cell mass, ethanol and by-products concentrations all increased. The optimal pH for the cell growth, ethanol and by-products productions was found to be pH 4.5. By-products biosynthesis was found, in general, to proceed with the ethanol biosynthesis. The results can be applied for the optimization of ethanol fermentation and for the recovery and purification of ethanol from the culture broth.

Plackett-Burman (PB) and Box-Behnken (BB) experimental designs were used to optimize fermentation variables for the biotransformation of glycyrrhizin (GL) to monoglucuronyl-glycyrrhetinic acid (MGGA). The PB design was first used to screen the important factors among the medium variables. The steepest ascent method was used to approach the optimum range for each of these factors. The BB design was finally used to analyze the response surfaces of the screened factors for further optimization. The optimized conditions for this system were 0.7 g/L $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 1.19 g/L GL, and cultivation for six days. The biotransformation of GL to MGGA could reach up to 35.72%, which is a good result for this kind of transformation.

Yeast with excellent ferment ability was isolated and selected from wild grape to manufacture wild grape wine. Wild grape wine by SMR-3 isolated from wild grape was better than other strains in quality, such as high alcohol content and low acidity, residual sugar, organic acid and fusel oil content. Fermentation condition was optimized to manufacture wild grape wine with response surface methodology using isolated SMR-3 as an alcohol fermentation strain. As a result of culture conditions, 10.61% of alcohol content was expected under the conditions of $21.91^{\circ}C$ fermenting temperature, $21.48^{\circ}brix$ of initial sugar content, and 14.65 day of fermentation time. Residual sugar content showed the lowest value at $24.48^{\circ}C$ fermentation temperature, $12.78^{\circ}brix$ of initial sugar content, and 9.02 day fermentation time. The highest level of sensory evaluation was found at $20.23^{\circ}C$ fermentation temperature, $25.30^{\circ}brix$ of initial sugar content, and 5.94 day fermentation time. Ethyl alcohol was the main alcohol component in wild grape wine and fusel oil in wild grape wine was hardly detected; thus, the quality of wild grape wine was considered excellent. The optimal fermentation conditions of wild grape wine was superimposed by deriving a regression equation for alcohol content, fusel oil, ethyl alcohol content, and overall palatability for each variable of wild grape wine. Hence, the optimal fermentation conditions are estimated to be: fermentation temperature $24{\sim}28^{\circ}C$, initial sugar content $20{\sim}24^{\circ}brix$, and fermenting time $12{\sim}14$ days.
