Lactic acid fermentation from sucrose as a carbon source was experimented. E. faecalis RKY1 metabolized sucrose efficiently into lactic acid through homolactic fermentation pathway. The optimal sucrose concentration for lactic acid production was found to be 150 g/l with the yield and productivity of 0.97 g/g and $3.7\;g/l\;{\cdot}\;h$, respectively. Lactic acid produced from sucrose was almost L(+)-lactic acid up to 98% based on total lactic acid produced. Therefore, sucrose was thought to be potential carbon source for L(+)-lactic acid production using E. faecalis RKY1.

Lactic acid production from ${\alpha}$-cellulose by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) was studied. The cellulose was converted in a batch SSF using cellulase enzyme Cytolase CL to produce glucose sugar and Lactobacillus delbrueckii to ferment the glucose to lactic acid. The effects of temperature, PH, yeast extract loading, and lactic acid inhibition were studied to determine the optimum conditions for the batch processing. Cellulose was converted efficiently to lactic acid, and enzymatic hydrolysis was the rate controlling step in the SSF. The highest conversion rate was obtained at 46$^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.0. The observed yield of lactic acid from ${\alpha}$-cellulose was 0.90 at 72 hours. The optimum pH of the SSF was coincident with that of enzymatic hydrolysis. The optimum temperature of the SSF was chosen as the highest temperature the microoraganism could withstand. The optimum yeast extract loading was found to be 2.5g/L. Lactic acid was observed to be inhibitory to the microorganisms' activity.

Effects of protease-resistant antimicrobial substances (PRA) produced by Lactobacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc citreum on rumen methanogenesis were examined using the in vitro continuous methane quantification system. Four different strains of lactic acid bacteria, i) Lactococcus lactis ATCC19435 (Control, non-antibacterial substances), ii) Lactococcus lactis NCIMB702054 (Nisin-Z), iii) Lactobacillus plantarum TUA1490L (PRA-1), and iv) Leuconostoc citreum JCM9698 (PRA-2) were individually cultured in GYEKP medium. An 80 ml aliquot of each supernatant was inoculated into phosphate-buffered rumen fluid. PRA-1 remarkably decreased cumulative methane production, though propionate, butyrate and ammonia N decreased. For PRA-2, there were no effects on $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ production and fermentation characteristics in mixed rumen cultures. The results suggested that PRA-1 reduced the number of methanogens or inhibited utilization of hydrogen in rumen fermentation.

Garlic has been used for condiments and also for medicines to cure various diseases since ancient times. Many studies on the processing of garlic have been published, however, few of them were related with fermentation because of the antimicrobial action of the garlic. In this study, to conduct garlic fermentation, 4 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains with growth abilities in garlic medium were selected. Addition of various nitrogen, carbon, and mineral sources generally did not improve the growth of experimental strains during garlic fermentation except for Lactobacillus casei KFRI 704 by yeast extract and Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris ATCC 19257 by mineral sources. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of 32 phenolic compounds during fermentation showed that formononetin was decreased time dependently. The concentrations of volatile compounds and alliin did not change during fermentation. The results of this study would provide the basic understanding of garlic fermentation by selected strains of LAB.

Clostridium butyricum, Lactobacillus amylophillus, Lactobacillus amylovorus, Lactobacillus acidophillus, AI-9 produced hydrogen and /or organic acids using glucose, lactose and starch at the anaerobic culture conditions. Cl. butyricum NCIB 9576 evolved 1,700 ml H2/L-culture broth and accumulated butyric acid, acetic acid, propionic acid and ethanol in its culture broth when lactose was used as a carbon source during 24 hrs of fermentation. L. amylovorus ATCC 33620 accumulated lactic and acetic acids and some reducing sugars when starch was used as a carbon source without hydrogen production. Instead of starch as a carbon source, L. amylovorus ATCC 33620 produced lactic acid from algal biomass during fermentation and the acid-heat or freeze-thaw pretreatment of algal biomass accelerate the lactic acid fermentation.

Lactic acid fermentations were conducted using water hyacinth. It is known that the pretreatment and enzyme hydrolysis process optimize the potential of water hyacinth. Lactic acid produced by using lactic acid bacteria. All cells were grown at $37^{\circ}C$ and initial pH 5.5. Lactic acid production was measured by HPLC. All Lactobacillus strains could produce lactic acid from pretreated water hyacinth. The highest lactic acid was achieved when lactic acid fermentation was carried out by L. delbrueckii for D-form and L. helveticus for L-form lactic acid production. The lactic acid concentration was 10.70 g/L by L. delbrueckii and it converted glucose in the medium to lactic acid, almost perfectly. Lactic acid production became higher when fermentation was carried out at a controlled pH 5.5. Lactic acid yield and productivity were 0.52 g/g and 0.19 g/L/h for L. helveticus, while L. delbrueckii was 0.64 g/g and 0.27 g/L/h. This study showed that water hyacinth medium could be alternative medium which can replace the complex and expensive medium for growing Lactobacillus strains in production of lactic acid.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of vitamin C and lactic acid bacteria count in Dongchimi used different kinds of water (distilled water, purified water, Cho Jung Carbonated Natural water). Dongchimi used different kinds of water was fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 46 days. The changes of pH on Dongchimi used different kinds of water decreased in all samples during fermentation period, and then showed a slow decrease after 12 days of fermentation. The total acidity of Dongchimi used Cho Jung Carbonated Natural water arrived slowly at best tasting condition(0.3~0.4 point) compared with other conditions. The changes of salt content were ranked high one by one , Cho Jung Carbonated Natural water>purified water>distilled water during fermentation period. At early stage of fermentation, the changes of turbidity of Dongchimi used Cho Jung Carbonated Natural water showed highly as compared with other test conditions for 12 days of fermentation. Vitamin C content was measured high in Dongchimi used Cho Jung Carbonated Natural water during the fermentation period. Because calcium content was high in carbonated natural water, carbonated natural water had the highest calcium content during the fermentation period. The changes of lactic acid bacteria count showed the highest price at all experimental groups in 15 days of fermentation, but those of Dongchimi used Cho Jung Carbonated Natural water showed the highest price in 19 days of fermentation.

In order to study ecology of microorganisms during Takju brewing, microflora changes were examined fromm the start to the sixth day of Takju fermentation in 24 hours intervals. Takju made from rice, flour and dried sweet potato in a liter volume open container at the laboratory and a sanple of Takju brewing factory were studied for their microflora and their changes during fermentationl together with a sample of Kokja. Results obtained were as follows ; 1. The followings were the identified microorganisms in Kokja. The molds ; Absidia spinosa, Aspergillus parasiticus. The yeasts ; Candida melinii, Candida Solani, Hansenula anomala. The bacteria ; Luctobacillus casei, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus. 2. Torulopsis inconspicua, Lactobacillus casei, Leuconotoc mesenteroides, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus were isolated from main mash of laboratory-made Takju samples. The yeast, Torupsis inconspicua which was not present in Kokja and, probably of a contaminant yeast, dominated the yeast flora of Takju mash of rice, flour and sweet potato of labotatory brewing. The laboratory brewing lost also always showed large population of lactic acid bacteria flora. 3. None of the wild yeasts which were present in Kokja appeared in Takju mashes. The Kokja appears to be of no use as the yeast source for Takju fermentation. Also the Kokja appears to be of not so effective amylolytic and proteolytic enzyme sources considering the microflora characteristics. Probably the major role of Kokja in Takju fermentation may be to contribute in taste formation. 4. Inoculation of Sacharomyces cerevisiae into the mash to the level of $10^7$ ml at the start of fermentation greatly changed the ecological aspects eliminating conditions of rather slow rising of natural contaminant yeast populaiton and fermentation which might give rise to prosperity of lactic acid and Bacillus bacteria that would be avoidable. 5. Examination of microflora of the large factory scale Takju fermentation showed the quite similar pattern of microflora and their changes to that of the cultured yeast-inoculated laboratory batch Takju fermentation. The cultured yeast dominated as the only predominant microflora, and the lactic acid bacteria flora were completely suppressed and aerobic bacteria, greatly. Probably this may be the regular microflora pattern of normal Takju fermentation. The role of lactic acid bacteria and aerobic bacteria in Takju fermentation may not be clear yet from this experiment alone.

The objective of this study is to investigate identification of lactic acid bacteria and changes of organic acid during aging of traditional Kyungsando Squid sikhe. Lactobacillus brevis SH-1, Lactobacillus plantarum SH-2, and Leuconostoc mensenteroides SH-3, which were isolated from Kyungsando Squid sikhe were selected for fermentation. The viable cell and lactic acid bacteria counts of squid sikhe was increased on fermentation days, and slowly decreased after 10 days of fermentation. The viable cell and lactic acid bacteria counts of standard sikhe at 6 days fermentation was $3.7{\times}10^9$ and $8.2{\times}10^8\;CFU/g$, respectively. The organic acid of squid sikhe consisted of 7 kinds including lactic acid during fermentation. The contents of citric acid, succinic acid, and lactic acid gradually increased during fermentation, and especially, increasing of lactic acid remarkably increased than the different organic acid. The contents of acetic acid and tartaric acid slowly increased after 7 days of fermentation.
