In this study, vinegar was prepared using black raspberry pomace to increase its utilization capacity. As a result of alcohol fermentation, the final alcohol content was 8.90% and the sugar content was 7.03°Brix. The total acid content after acetic acid fermentation was 4.44%, which was 0.38% higher than that of the juice. Among the organic acid content, the acetic acid content was higher in the pomace than in the juice. The total polyphenol (51.58 TAE mg/mL), total flavonoid (9.55 RUE mg/mL), and total anthocyanin (6.05 CYE mg/mL) contents of vinegar produced using black raspberry residue were higher than those of the juice. In addition, 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) activity were higher than those of the juice, indicating strong antioxidant properties. Thus, black raspberry pomace has excellent acetic acid fermentation ability and high antioxidant activity, indicating that it can be used as a functional fermented vinegar.

To investigate the effect of different acetic acid bacteria on qualities of detoxified Rhus verniciflua vinegar (DRV), different DRVs were produced by using three acetic acid bacterial strains including Acetobacter pasteurianus KACC16934 (AP), Acetobacter malorum V5-7 (AM), and Gluconoacetobacter entanii RDAF-S (GE). Little difference in pH (2.87~2.90) or titratable acidity (5.33~5.68%) was observed among different DRVs. Acetic acid yields of the AP, AM, and GE strains were 78.6%, 85.3%, and 85.9%, respectively. Organic acid content in different DRVs was in the range of 69.84~73.83 mg/mL. Oxalic acid, malic acid, succinic acid, acetic acid, and fumaric acid were detected in all DRVs. And glutamic acid, alanine, valine, leucine, tyrosine, lysine, anserine, and arginine were detected in all DRVs. Arginine and alanine were the predominant amino acids in all DRVs. PCA plots of electronic nose analysis data showed a significant differentiation of DRVs from different acetic acid bacterial strains. A sensory evaluation of all DRVs indicated that DRV fermented using AM was superior in the aspect of flavor, tasted and overall preference.

This study investigated acetic acid fermentation properties and antioxidant activity of vinegar by addition of lemon grass to develop high quality vinegar by using lemongreass. Traditional brown rice wine contained 5% lemongrass powder and had an alcohol content of 7.2%. The wine was fermented by Acetobacter. sp. RIC-V and made into lemongrass vinegar (LV). The pH and total acidity of the LV were 3.13% and 7.21%, respectively. Fructose was detected whereas glucose, sucrose, and maltose were not detected. Among organic acids, acetic acid was highest at 3658.6 mg%; trace amounts of lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, and oxalic aicd were detected. Of the 17 free amino acids, glutamic acid, histidine, alanine, and proline were mainly detected. To conduct total polyphenol content and ABTS radical scavenging activity, 3% and 5% lemongrass powder (P3LV, P5LV) and 1%, 2%, and 3% of lemongrass extract (E1LV, E2LV, E3LV) were added to LV, respectively. Total phenolics increased as the added lemongrass powder and extract increased. Total phenolics were 490.9, 559.4, and $895.7{\mu}g$ gallic acid equivalents/mL in brown rice vinegar, LV, P5LV. ABTS radical scavenging activities were 43.2%, 58.0%, and 91.0% in brown rice vinegar, LV, P5LV, respectively. These results show that lemongrass vinegar has considerable potential as a high quality functional vinegar with antioxidative effects.

The Chinese Sigyeong records the foods of the Primitive Pickling Period, pickling being a universal vegetable storage method, but does not indicate the origin of the pickled vegetables or the location of the source of transmission. Kimchi mainly used salt and sauce-based soaking materials at the beginning of the Fermented Pickling Period (beginning in the 1st to 3rd centuries A.D.), and it differed from the Chinese method, which used alcohol and vinegar. In the Umami-Flavored Pickling Period (beginning in the 14th and 15th centuries A.D.), jeotgal, fermented seafoods, were added, and pickles with a completely new identity were created, one different from any other pickles in the world. Lastly, entering the Complex Fermentation and Pickling Period (beginning in the 17th and 18th centuries), the technical process evolved using a separate special seasoning containing red pepper as the secondary immersion source after pickling in brine, the primary immersion source. As a result of this, kimchi was transformed into a food with a unique form and taste not found anywhere else. The unique characteristic of kimchi is that the composition of original materials, a combination of salted marine life and vegetable ingredients, is its core identity, and there is a methodological difference in that it is completed through a second process called saesaengchae (生菜)-chimchae (沈菜).

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of vinegars containing jaceosidin and eupatilin using Artemisia argyi H. ethanol extract (AEE). 10% malt extract (ME) and water extract of Artemisia argyi H. (AWE) were also prepared for vinegar production. Three kinds of materials were mixed in the same amount to prepare vinegar as follows; CO (ME, water, 18% edible ethanol), SE (ME, water, and AEE), SW (ME, AWE, and 18% edible ethanol) and SM (ME, AWE, AEE). All samples were fermented by Acetobacter pasteurianus A8 at $30^{\circ}C$ for 25 days and analyzed at 10, 15, 20 and 25 days. The pH decreased significantly during the fermentation. pH was lower in SE and SM than CO and SW. The acidity increased significantly during the fermentation, and was highest in SM (4.44%) at 25 days of fermentation. The concentration of acetic acid was higher than other organic acids for all vinegars. Jaceosidin and eupatilin were not detected in both CO and SW, but both were detected in the SE and SM. At 25 days of fermentation, jaceosidin and eupatilin concentrations in SE and SM were 6.49-6.88 mg/kg and 2.23-2.24 mg/kg, respectively. From these results, we confirmed that production of vinegar containing jaceosidin, eupatilin and phenolic compounds can be prepared by using Artemisia argyi H. edible ethanol extract.

The contents of organic acids in traditional and modified fermented foods were compared, and propionic acid produced during fermentation was investigated. Organic acids in traditional and modified soy sauces were lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, formic acid, succinic acid and oxalic acid while propionic acid was found in traditional soy sauces only. Similarly, lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, formic acid, succinic acid and propionic acid were found in traditional and modified soy paste. The organic acids in traditional and modified kochujang were citric acid, acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, oxalic acid and succinic acid while propionic acid was not found in modified kochujang. The major organic acid in persimmon and commercial (fermented) vinegars was acetic acid. Propionic acid was uniquely found in persimmon vinegars. Also, content of tannic acid in persimmon vinegars was 366.9 ∼ 909.8 mg%.

In the current food sanitation regulation, food additives are under controlled by the Food Code. The naturally derived preservatives such as benzoic acid and propionic acid can be naturally carried over or produced as metabolites during manufacturing process such as fermentation. To monitor naturally formed benzoic acid and propionic acid levels, a total of 145 samples were classified into berries (prune, cranberry), functional foods (propolis liquid, ginseng product), vinegars (vinegar-based drink, vinegar beverage, vinegar), and salted and pickled products (olive, pickled cucumber, salted/pickled product) and analyzed by HPLC-PDA and GC-FID. From the results, benzoic acid and propionic acid were each detected and identified in 144 samples and 64 samples respectively. The amount of benzoic acid ranged from $4.1{\sim}478.4\;ppm$ in cranberry, from $49.7{\sim}491$ in propolis liquid, and from $2.5{\sim}10.2\;ppm$ in ginseng, and other tested samples contained very small quantity. Also, the amount of propionic acid ranged from $179.8{\sim}951.9\;ppm$ (av. 553.6 ppm) in vinegar (persimmon vinegar 100%), which was the highest level among fermented foods, from $13.7{\sim}247.0$ ppm in propolis liquid, from $2.0{\sim}180.7\;ppm$ in vinegar-based drink, and from $1.6{\sim}76.6\;ppm$ in olive. Vinegar beverage and pickled cucumber each showed 24 and 18 ppm of propionic acid; in contrast, propionic acid was not detected in prune, cranberry, ginseng, and picked/salted products.

To produce liquor and vinegar using potatoes needs to liquefy and sacchrify potatoes . So selecting the efficient fermenter for proceeding these process successfully is very important . This study was investigated several fermenter and crush types of potatoes for alcohol fermentation. Final sugar contents was high in pottoes saccharificatiion by nuruk or crude enzyme. But pure enzyme and blucoamylase ended liquefaction and saccharificatiion within short ime. So complex type fermenter mixed several fermenters was superior to single type fermenter. Complexfermenter III using crude enzyme and glucoamyulase saccharificed excellently potatoes with 150% of water contents by treatment of 3 hours. Through alcohol fermentation using pressure steamed potatoes (PSP), it could be obtained 6.4% , 150%, of alcohol content and yield. However to perform a series process efficiently , crush steamed pottoes (CSP) was suitable. When it was fermented after saccharification using crush steamed potatoes and complex fermenter III, it could be obtained 6.6% of alcohol and 6.7% of acidity.
