쌀과 같은 곡류는 전분질을 당분으로 전환시켜 술을 제조하여야 하므로 미생물이 생성하는 효소가 필요한데 그 효소원이 누룩이며 누룩은 주류의 품질이나 생산량에 영향을 미치는 가장 중요한 요소라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 전국44개 지역의 누룩에서 순수 분리된 89종의 곰팡이 중 효소역가와 당화력이 비교적 뛰어난 10종(Aspergillus sp. SH-412 Heunghae, Aspergillus sp. SH-422 Ulsan, Rhizopis sp. SH-606 Imdeok, Aspergillus sp. SH-607 Yhesan, Aspergilus sp. SH-613 Wolseong, Rhizopus sp. SH-654 Uncheon, Aspergillus sp. SH-660 Jeonkok, Aspergillus sp. SH-667 Dongseong, Aspergillus sp. SH-669 Uncheon, Aspergillus sp. SH-696 Daecheon)과 대조균주로 Aspergillus kawachii CF1002 그리고 효모 Saccharomyces cerevisiae를 사용하셨으며 탁주제조 중 균주별 술덧의 산도, 환원당, 아미노산도와 제조된 완성주의 유기산, 유리아미노산, 유리당, 휴젤유 및 색도를 HPLC, GC Mass, 색차계로 측정한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 균주별 술덧의 주정도는 모든 실험구에서 Aspergillus kawachii보다 높았으며 특히 Aspergillus sp. SH-422는 14.9%로 가장 수율이 좋았다. 환원당은 Aspergillus sp. SH-613이 0.49%로 가장 높았고 Aspergillus sp. SH-422는 0.37%로 가장 낮았으며 산도는 시간의 경과에 따라 감소했으며 술덧 발효중 아미노산도는 시간의 경과에 따라 약간 상승 후 다소 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 각 균주별 술덧의 유기산은 tataric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, acetic acid가 검출되었으며 lactic acid 함량이 2.0∼3.2g/100ml로 가장 많이 검출되었다. 유기산은 Aspergillus sp. SH-669가 가장 높게 확인되었으며 Aspergillus sp. SH-607이 가장 낮게 분석되었다. 술덧의 주 아미노산은 histidine, alanine, glutamic acid, leucine, tryptophan순으로 검출되었으며 특히 alanine은 주류에 단맛을 주는 성분으로 모든 실험구에서 많은 양이 검출되었다. 각 균주별 술덧의 유리당은 glucose가 가장 많이 검출되었으며 Fusel oil은 iso-butyl alcohol과 iso-pentyl alcohol 이 가장 많이 검출되었다. 한편 균주별 술덧의 색차를 측정한 결과 L값은 63.33∼41.98, a값은 0.09∼-3.47, b값은 17.41∼4.90으로 나타났다.

A comparison of dextrinogenic amylase activities in the Asp. niger group was made with their crude and ethanol dialized enzymes before and after heating at high temperature (60-$65^{\circ}C$). The results obtained are as follows ; 1. THe dextrinogenic amylase activity of crude enzymes of Asp. kawachii and Asp. foetidus was strong, but Asp. phoernicis, Asp. carbonarius and Asp.japonicus showed weak activity. The others showed medial grades of activity. 2. The ethanol dialized enzymes of Asp. kawachii, Asp. foetidus and Asp. japonicus was very sesitive to high temperature (60 or $65^{\circ}C$) and their enzymatic activities were diminished greatly. The others did not show diminution of enzymatic activity at 60 or 65.deg.C, but diminished greatly at 70 or $75^{\circ}C$. 3. The ethanol dialized enzymes of the Asp.niger group heated to 65.deg.C was more sensitive at pH 6.0 and 6.5 than at pH 4.5, 5.0 and 5.5. 4. Tested strains in the Asp.niger group were subdivided into 4 subgroups by their dextrinogenic amylase activities before and after heating at 60 or $65^{\circ}C$. The first group showed a medial grade of activity before heating and no diminution of their enzymatic activities after heating. Asp. niger, Asp.pulverulentus, Asp. awamori and Asp. usmii were included in this group. The second group had strong enzymatic activity before heating, but diminished greatly after heating. Asp rawachii and Asp. phoenicis were included in this group. The fourth group showed very weak enzymatic activity before heating, and was inactivated easily by heating. Asp.oryzae of the Asp. flavus group showed a very strong dextrinogenic amylase activity before heating. After the heat treatment, however, its enzymatic activity was diminished greatly.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different active gluten and rice Nuruk(Asp. oryzae, Asp. kawachii rice Nuruk) levels on the quality properties of steamed rice breads. Enzyme(amylase and acidic protease) activity of Asp. oryzae rice Nuruk is higher than Asp. kawachii rice Nuruk. Among the loaf volume of active gluten that were tested (10, 13, 15 and 17%) an active gluten loaf volume of 15% produced the best steamed rice bread. As a result of the loaf volume test steamed rice bread with rice Nuruk was decreased than steamed wheat bread. Regarding color, all treatments produced significant differences. The L value was decreased in steamed rice bread more than in steamed wheat bread, and a and b values were increased, respectively. Hardness, gumminess and chewiness of SRB-2, 3, 4 were lower than SWB-1 but springiness were higher. According to the sensory evaluation of steamed rice bread, color, flavor, and uniformity of pores were the highest in the steamed wheat bread, and the chewiness and texture were good in the steamed rice bread containing added active gluten and rice Nuruk. In this study, addition of rice Nuruk in steamed rice bread did not increase loaf volume, but had an advantage for overall desirability.

The ethyl acetate fraction of Bat Faeces (Ye Ming Sha: natural products used in Chinese Medicine) after fermentation (EFBF-AF) showed enhanced anti-oxidative effects in 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt assays. Fermentation of the Bat Faeces by using the crude enzyme extract from Aspergillus kawachii, significantly increased the anti-inflammatory effects. Fermented Bat Faeces markedly inhibited nitric oxide production, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and cyclooxygenase-2 expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. The EFBF-AF reduced the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor kappa B ($NF-{\kappa}B$) via $IKK{\alpha}$ and $I{\kappa}B{\alpha}$ phosphorylation, and decreased the phosphorylated the extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) and p38 expression in LPS-treated RAW 264.7 macrophages. In addition, the EFBF-AF suppressed the expression of pro-inflammatory genes, such as interleukin-$1{\beta}$, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$. These results suggest that fermented Bat Faeces may suppress pro-inflammatory responses in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages cells via ERK, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and $NF-{\kappa}B$ signaling pathways.

Five mold strains - Mucor racemousus, Rhizopus oryzae, Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus kawachii, and Monascus purpureus - were used for the fermentation of both freeze-dried and air-dried silkworm powders. The concentrations of proteins and minerals, electrophoretical protein patterns, fatty acid composition and the activities of fibrinolytic and antioxidation with freeze-dried silkworm (FDSW) or air-dried silkworm powders (ADSW) fermented by the five molds were investigated. The concentrations of major minerals in fermented FDSW and ADSW powders were K by 72.0-76.3 and 77.1-78.9 ppm, Mg by 29.6-49.7 and 44.3-58.7 ppm, Ca by 1.9-14.9 and 9.8-21.6 ppm and Zn by 0.64-0.70 and 4.17-4.52 ppm, respectively. Major fatty acids in fermented FDSW and ADSW powders were linolenic acid, oleic acid, and palmitic acid. There were slightly varietal differences in electrophoretical protein patterns when total protein patterns of fermented FDSW and ADSW powders were analyzed by native-and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). DPPH radical scavenging activity was slightly stronger in fermented ADSW powders than that in fermented FDSW. Fibriolytic activity was only detected in the FDSW fermented by Aspergillus kawachi and Monascus purpureus. These results may provide the basic data to understand the biological activities and chemical characteristics of silkworm fermented by mold, which can be used for the development of functional foods.

Volatile flavor components in the mash of takjus prepared by using different nuruks such as Mucor racemosus nuruk, Rhizopus japonicus nuruk, Aspergillus oryzae nuruk, Aspergillus kawachii nuruk and nuruk (Korean-style bran koji), were identified by using GC and GC-MS. Twenty alcohols, 26 esters, 10 acids, 10 aldehydes and 6 others were found in the mash of takju after 16 days of fermentation. Takju by Aspergillus oryzae nuruk had the most various components of volatile flavor. Fifty-four flavor components including ethanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 2,3-butadienol (D,L), benzeneethanol, acetic acid ethyl ester, succinic acid diethyl ester, butanoic acid monoethyl ester, acetic acid and benzene acetic acid 4-acetyloxy-3-methyl ethyl ester were usually detected in all the treatments. The relative peak area of volatile components was as follows: alcohol $(71.28{\sim}90.23%)$, ester $(0.66{\sim}9.05%)$, acid $(0.2{\sim}0.6%)$ and aldehyde $(0.02{\sim}0.09%)$. Specially, 1-pentanol and hexanoic acid ethyl ester were high in takju made of nuruk (Korean-style bran koji). 1-Hexanol, 1-dodecanol, acetic acid and 1,2-benzene-dicarboxylic acid diprophenyl ester were high in takju made of Mucor racemosus nuruk. 4-Acetyloxy, 3-methyl benzeneacetic acid phenyl ester, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, succinic acid diethylester, butanoic acid monoethyl ester and butanoic acid were higher content in takju by Rhizopus japonicus nuruk. Acetic acid ethyl ester, pentanoic acid and 3-methyl butanoic acid were high in takju that was made of Aspergillus oryzae nuruk. 1-Butanol was high in takju by Aspergillus kawachii nuruk.

In this study, the biological activities of aqueous, ethanol, and methanol extracts of larvae of the edible insect Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis, fermented using several kinds of microorganisms, were tested in in vitro experimental models. Six effective microorganisms were used for fermentation, namely Lactobacillus plantarum JBMI F3, Lactobacillus plantarum JBMI F5, Lactobacillus gasseri Ba9, Aspergillus kawachii KCCM 32819, Saccharomyces cerevisiae KACC 93023, and Bacillus subtilis KACC 91157. Biological activities (${\alpha},{\alpha}^{\prime}-diphenyl-{\beta}-picrylhydrazyl$ [DPPH] free radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and fibrinolytic activity), and biochemical properties (phenolic compounds and flavonoids) were examined in aqueous, ethanol, and methanol extracts from P. brevitarsis seulensis powder and fermented P. brevitarsis seulensis powder. The total phenolic compounds and flavonoid contents were highest in the aqueous extract of B. subtilis-fermented P. brevitarsis seulensis powder. DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power were stronger in the fermented group than the nonfermented group. Fibrinolytic activity were highest in the extract from B. subtilis-fermented P. brevitarsis seulensis powder. The ${\alpha}-amylase$ activity in starch was higher in the fermented group than the nonfermented group, but there was no significant difference. These results provide basic data to understand the biological activities of bioactive materials derived from fermented P. brevitarsis seulensis larvae for the development of functional foods.

In this study, Tenebrio molitor (T. molitor) was fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum JBMI F3 (F3), Lactobacillus plantarum JBMI F5 (F5), Lactobacillus gasseri Ba9 (Ba9), Aspergillus kawachii KCCM 32819 (Ak), Saccharomyces cerevisiae KACC 93023 (Sc), and Bacillus subtilis KACC 91157 (Bs). After fermentation, the fermented products were extracted by water, ethanol, and methanol, and their physicochemical and biological properties were investigated. In a DPPH assay, the water extracts of the fermented products of T. molitor showed high antioxidant ability. Among the water extracts, the fermented product by Bs showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity. The total contents of phenolic compounds and flavonoids were highest in the fermented products by Ak and Bs, respectively. Reducing activity was detected the most high activity on ethanol extract of fermented product by Bs. The water extract of the fermented product by Bs exhibited strong enzymatic activity for fibrinogen and starch hydrolysis. Based on the observed physicochemical and biological properties, the fermented products of T. molitor by microorgansims can likely be applied as functional materials in various industries.

본 연구는 정자의 기능검사와 체외수정을 실시하여 수정능력과 수태율의 예측을 위한 이들간의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여 AI 중인 8두의 종모돈을 가지고 시도되었다. 정자의 기능검사로서 첨체상태는 spermac stain을 이용하여 관찰하였고 정자원형질막의 온전성(integrity) 검사로는 hypo-osmotic test(HOST)를 실시하였다. 그리고 정자의 첨체효소인 acrosin activity를 측정하였다. 체외수정율은 체외성숙 난포란과 실시하였다. 8마리 종모돈의 첨체형태의 정상비율은 처리전 64.7-81.9%, 처리후 21.8~48.1%로 개체간의 유의성이 있었다. Acrosin activity는 처리전 3.70-4.57 mIU/$10^{6}$ 정자, 처리후 3.23~5.53 mIU/$10^{6}$ 정자였으며 처리전 개체에서만 유의성이 있었다. HOST는 처리전 26.5~54.5%, 처리후 20.2~50.0%로서 처리전후간의 차이는 없었지만 개체간의 유의차는 있었다. 체외수정율의 범위는 61.6~8l% 였고 6일 후 배발달율(배반포율)은 11~22%로 개체간의 유의성이 있었다. Spearman ranking correlation에서 체외수정율은 첨체상태검사와는 0.45, HOST와는 0.43로서 유의성이 인정되지 않았다. 또한 수태율은 첨체상태검사와 0.89, acrosin activity와 0.86, HOST와 0.86, 체외수정과 0.51로서 유의적으로 높은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 본 결과에서 종모돈의 기능검사와 체외수정결과로 개체간의 수정능력의 차이를 알 수 있었으나 수정란의 발달율이나 수태율을 예측할 수 있을 만큼의 상관성은 얻지 못했다. 정자검사에 있어서 일반성상 검사외에 정자기능 검사의 추가 실시가 종모돈 정자의 정확한 수정능력을 예측하는데 필요할 것이다.llus kawachii등으로 담금하여 제조한 술 시료 11종류를 대상으로 하여 쓴맛, 미묘한 맛, 떫은 맛, 신맛, 좋은 맛의 정도를 5단계로 나누어 관능검사를 실시한 다음 자료를 Duncan's multiple range test로 분석한 결과 전체적으로 좋은 맛에 대한 기호도는 Aspergillus sp.
