For an extension of the palatable stage in Kimchi which was limited by further lowering pH as the fermentation proceeds, the starter culture of bacteriocin-producing Enterococcus faecium DU 0267 obtained from Kimchi was added at the preparation time, and pH, bacteriocin activity, growth of lactic acid bacterial group and gas production in Kimchi were examined during the fermentation at 10, 20 and 30$\circ$C . The pH of Kimchi fell rapidly to 4.0~4.2 in the early fermentation stage, and then, has gone down very slowly throughout further fermentation. The lactic acid bacte- ria, particularly lactobacilli and leuconostoc, were remarkably slower in its growth than those in the control. Although the patterns of these change during fermentation at different temperatures were similar, these effects by the addition of starter were enhanced at 10 and 20$\circ$C. The bacteriocin activity was increased rapidly during log phase of the bacteriocin producer strain in the early fermentation stage of Kimchi and reached their maximum after fermentation at 10$\circC, for 8 days and at 20 or 30$\circ$C for 2 days. Thereafter, the activity disappeared quickly. The gas production by fermentation was also suppressed considerably, and their volume produced after fermentation at 20$\circ$C for 14 days corresponded to 60% of those of the control.

Effect of Fermentation temperature on the changes of chemical components in Kakudgi during fermentation was investigated by measuring free sugar, organic acid and volatile compounds up to 57 days at several temperatures. The mannitol was increased in palatable period in contrast with those of other free sugars. The higher the initial fermentation temperature was and the longer the initial fermentation time at 2$0^{\circ}C$ was, the faster the second increasing period was and the less the initial contents was. Lactic acid was increased 6~31 times from a little amount at the initial period. The higher the initial fermentation temperature was and the more the increasing content was. But malic acid which was abundant(55.1% of total nonvolatile organic acid) in the initial fermentation period was remarkably decreased in the palatable period. The change of the sulfides among the volatile compounds was remarkable. Methyl allyl sulfide which was a little in the initial fermentation period was remarkably increased in the final fermentation period, and the correlation coefficients between the content of methyl allyl sulfide and aroma in sensory evaluation were high. It could be suggested that the fermentation temperature should be set to 4$^{\circ}C$ after fermentating at 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 36 hours in the view point of keeping the Kakdugi taste and quality well because of high content of free sugar and nonvolatile organic acids.

This study was conducted to investigate the chemical characteristics of Gochujang with different amounts of sweet persimmon powder added during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ for 90 days, in an effort to improve its taste and organoleptic quality. The moisture content was shown to be inclined to increase in all the treatments throughout the fermentation. There was no significant difference between the paste with sweet persimmon powder and the control. The pH showed a tendency to decrease with increased fermentation time in all the samples during fermentation, keeping a pH range of 4.64-4.67 after 60 days of fermentation. On the contrary, the titratable acidity increased during fermentation, showing a level of 0.147-0.156 mg% in the paste with sweet persimmon powder on the 90th day of fermentation. The sugar content was shown to be $33.67-39.67^{\circ}Brix$ in the early stage of fermentation, revealing a tendency to in crease with an increase in the amount of sweet persimmon powder added. The amino-type nitrogen content was at the 241.27-245.47 mg% level in the early stage of fermentation, and appeared to be significantly high (p<0.05) in the treatments with 3 and 4% sweet persimmon powder added, respectively, after 60 days of fermentation. The content was within the range of 357.47-371.53 mg% on the 90 th day of fermentation in the final stage, showing an increase trend throughout the fermentation. The alcohol content gradually increased with an increase in fermentation time, showing a range of 0.94-0.10% on the 90th day of the final stage of fermentation. Moreover, the content was highest (0.96-0.108%) on the 70th day of fermentation, demonstrating a trend to slightly decline in all the treatments thereafter.

Textured vegetable protein (TVP) was fermented by the solid-state fermentation using Bacillus subtilis HA and biologically active compounds were produced by fermentation for 7 days. The longer fermentation time resulted in the color change of fermented TVP with strong dark red and yellow color. Melanoidin production rapidly increased until fermentation for 48 hr, but did change afterwards. The 70% ethanol extract of TVP fermented for 24 hr showed higher DPPH radical scavenging effect with $IC_{50}$ of 0.99 mg/mL but longer fermentation did not increase its activity. Also, 70% ethanol extract of TVP fermented for 72 hr indicated higher ABTS radical scavenging effect with $IC_{50}$ of 1.68 mg/mL. Consistency index in TVP fermented for 48 hr was the highest values with 7.89 $Pa{\cdot}s^n$. Viscoelastic properties of TVP fermented for 48 hr were maximally enhanced, and viscous value (G") is higher than the elastic value (G'). The $\gamma$-polyglutamic acid (PGA) content was increased by increasing fermentation time with 37.72% of $\gamma$-PGA at 168 hr. However, levan content and molecular weight of PGA were decreased with increasing fermentation time from 7.83% to 3.91% and 1649.3 kDa to 1286.8 kDa, respectively.

This paper reports a study on physical properties of the traditional adhesives for developing natural adhesives. This is to certify that the superiority of tradition through systematic surveys and experiments as well. We used three kinds of starches differing fermentation time(7 years, 4 years 8 months, and 2 years 8 months) which are fermented from wheat flour starches. The amylose contents, total sugar contents, crystallinity, particle size and shape, viscosity, pH, and adhesive strength were examined. The effect of fermentation time on physical properties of fermented wheat flour were studied. It was found that fermentation time effect various physical properties such as total sugar contents, amylose contents, crystallinity, viscosity, and so on.

Objective: This project aimed to evaluate the effects of both different additives and filling methods on nutritive quality, fermentation profile, and in situ digestibility of whole plant corn silage. Methods: Whole plant corn forage harvested at 26.72% dry matter (DM) was chopped and treated with two filling methods, i) fill silos at one time (F1), ii) fill silos at three times (F3), packing samples into one/three silo capacity at the first day, another one/three capacity at the second day, then one/three at the third day, three replicates. For each replicate, samples were treated with three additives, i) control (CTRL, no additive), ii) Sila-Max (MAX, Ralco Nutrition Inc., Marshall, MN, USA), and iii) Sila-Mix (MIX, Ralco Nutrition Inc., USA). With three replicates of each secondary treatment, there were nine silos, 54 silos in total. Each silo had a packing density of 137.61 kg of DM/m3. All silos were weighed and stored in lab at ambient temperature. Results: After 60 d of ensiling, all items showed good silage fermentation under MAX filled one time or three times (p<0.01). Higher silage quality for all additives was obtained at filling one time than that filled three times (p<0.01). The highest DM and lowest DM loss rate (DMLR) occurred to MAX treatment at two filling methods (p<0.01); Digestibility of acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and curde protein had the same results as silage quality (p<0.01). Yield of digestible DM and digestible NDF also showed higher value under MAX especially for filling one time (p<0.05). Conclusion: All corn silages showed good fermentation attributes (pH<4.0). The forage filled one time had higher silage quality than that filled three times (p<0.01). MAX with homofermentative lactic acid bacteria enhanced the lactic acid fermentation, silage quality and nutrient digestibility, and so improved the digestible nutrient yield.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the fermentation characteristics of Yakju using fresh sprouts from common buckwheat, a Daisan cultivar, and a tartary buckwheat Daikwan 3-3 cultivar to develop a functional Yakju, which is a traditional Korean liquor. As fermentation time increased, alcohol concentration and total sugar content (expressed as Brix degrees) increased, whereas reducing sugar content decreased. In particular, alcohol formation capability was maximized from the fourth to the seventh days of the second mashing stage during the fermentation procedure, which corresponded to the abrupt rise in mashing body temperature. The pH increased slightly when the titratable acidity was kept from increasing as fermentation proceeded. Quercetin and rutin were not present in the control group but their presence in Yakju with added buckwheat sprouts continuously increased with an increase in the fermentation period. Quercetin and rutin contents were higher in the Yakju with added Daikwan3-3 buckwheat sprouts than Yakju with added Daisan buckwheat sprouts. In conclusion, adding buckwheat sprouts improved Yakju quality during fermentation. Particularly, Yakju with added Daikwan3-3 buckwheat sprouts had superior fermentation characteristics and quality.
