This work is aimed to increase knowledge of the functional exopolysaccharide (EPS) from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in makgeolli, a Korean fermented rice wine. Among LAB strains isolated from makgeolli, strain M76 was selected as a functional strain producing a bioactive EPS, based on its antioxidative activity on the DPPH radical. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis showed a high sequence similarity (99.0%) with P. acidilactici, but had different biochemical properties with the already known P. acidilactici type strains in the aspect of carbohydrates utilization. The obtained P. acidilactici M76 produced a soluble EPS above 2 g/l. One-step chromatography using gel filtration after ethanol precipitation from the supernatant of P. acidilactici M76 was enough to obtain purified EPS with a single peak, showing a molecular mass of approximately 67 kDa. Componential and structural analyses of EPS by TLC, HPLC, and FT-IR indicated that the EPS is a glucan, consisting of glucose units. The purified EPS had antioxidant activity on the DPPH radical of 45.8% at a concentration of 1 mg/ml. The purified EPS also showed proliferative effect on the pancreatic RIN-m5F cell line and remarkable protection activity on alloxan-induced cytotoxicity. This potent antioxidant and antidiabetic EPS by LAB in makgeolli may contribute to understanding the functionality of makgeolli.

본 연구에서는 시판누룩에서 분리한 Rhizopus oryzae CCS01로 쌀누룩을 제조하고 이를 이용하여 곡류 막걸리 제조하였다. R. oryzae CCS01로 제조한 쌀누룩은 시판누룩보다 탄수화물 함량은 높았으나, 수분 및 회분, 조단백질, 조지방 함량은 낮았고 당화력은 약 2.2배 정도 높게 나타났다. R. oryzae CCS01로 제조된 쌀누룩으로 제조한 막걸리는 pH와 알코올 함량은 시판누룩보다 높게 나타났으나, 당도 및 산도, 젖산균수, 효모균수, 갈변도는 낮게 나타났다. 특히 쌀누룩으로 제조한 찹쌀(GUR) 막걸리의 경우 다른 막걸리들 보다 알코올 함량이 가장 높았다. 이 결과로 R. oryzae CCS01로 제조된 쌀누룩을 이용하여 새로운 곡류 막걸리 제조가 가능할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Makgeolli, also known as Takju, is a non-filtered traditional Korean alcoholic beverage that contains various floating matter, including yeast cells, which contributes to its high physiological functionality. In the present study, we assessed the levels of ${\beta}$-glucan and glutathione in various yeast strains isolated from traditional Korean Nuruk and selected a ${\beta}$-glucan- and glutathione-rich yeast strain to add value to Makgeolli by enhancing its physiological functionality through increased levels of these compounds. Yeast ${\beta}$-glucan levels ranged from 6.26% to 32.69% (dry basis) and were strongly species-dependent. Dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from Nuruk contained $25.53{\mu}g/mg$ glutathione, $0.70{\mu}g/mg$ oxidized glutathione, and $11.69{\mu}g/g$ and $47.85{\mu}g/g$ spermidine and L-ornithine monohydrochloride, respectively. To produce functional Makgeolli, a ${\beta}$-glucan- and glutathione-rich yeast strain was selected in a screening analysis. Makgeolli fermented with the selected yeast strain contained higher ${\beta}$-glucan and glutathione levels than commercial Makgeolli. Using the selected yeast strain to produce Makgeolli with high ${\beta}$-glucan and glutathione content may enable the production of functional Makgeolli.

Purpose: This study developed sourdough bread according to consumers' preferencesby shortening the sourdough fermentation process time through addition of makgeolli to sourdough. Methods: Fermentation time was measured by adding makgeolli and water to wheat flour. Results: Fermentation time was shorter than that of starter made with only water and flour, with 5 hours of primary fermentation and 3 hours of secondary fermentation. The optimum mixing ratio was 400 g of flour, 192 mL of water, and 48 mL of makgeolli. An increase in makgeolli sourdough content decreased crude protein and moisture contents of white bread. Crude fat and ash contents increased, and volume of bread was decreased as sourdough increased. The height of bread prepared with makgeolli sourdough was lower than that of bread without makgeolli sourdough. According to the results of the texture measurement, hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of sourdough group were lower as the addition of sourdough increased. Addition of makgeolli sourdough to white bread resulted in decreased lightness, but increased yellowness of white bread. Preparation of white bread with addition of sourdough improved taste and flavor compared to bread prepared only with wheat flour. Conclusion: The highest sensory preference was observed for white bread prepared whit 5 g of sourdough.

이전의 연구 결과에 나타난 바 있는 막걸리 중 ochratoxin A의 낮은 회수율(<50%)은 시료 내 본 곰팡이독소의 추출 혹은 전처리 과정의 개선이 필요함을 지적하였다. 본 연구에서 막걸리 시료의 균질화에 이용되던 추출 용액을 PBS 용액 대신 3% sodium bicarbonate 용액으로 채택할 경우, 80% 이상의 첨가된 ochratoxin A가 회수되어 그 검출이 용이해졌다. 한편 개선된 해당 분석법의 막걸리 시료에 대한 적용 가능성을 알아보기 위하여 국내 시판 중인 살균막걸리 30점을 대상으로 분석한 결과 밀 막걸리 2점에서 ochratoxin A가 검출되었고(0.8, 2.1 ppb), 그 결과를 다시 HPLC-ESI-MS로 확정하였다. 본 연구를 통해 수행된 개선된 시료 전처리 방법(3% sodium bicarbonate)과 병행된 IAC 및 HPLC-FD 분석법은 막걸리를 대상으로 한 ochratoxin A의 오염 조사에 유효한 분석법임이 확인되었다.

This study investigated the physicochemical, microbiological, antioxidant, and sensory characteristics of Makgeolli supplemented with 10, 20, and 30% Codium fragile (Cf) during an 8-day fermentation period. The pH and acidity on day 0 were lower in Makgeolli supplemented with Cf (pH 3.55-3.65, acidity 0.26-0.29%) than in the unsupplemented Makgeolli (control) (pH 3.72, acidity 0.23%). The pH and acidity of Cf Makgeolli on day 8 were 3.08-3.12 and 0.67-0.75%, respectively. The sugar content increased steadily until day 4 (8.1-8.5 Brix) and then decreased steadily (6.5-6.8 Brix). The alcohol content increased steadily until day 8 (13.2-14.3%). The pH decreased, acidity increased, and alcohol content increased significantly (all P<0.05), with stepwise increases in fermentation time and Cf concentrations. The lactic acid bacteria counts were 9.28-9.37 log versus 8.18 log in the control. The DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS [2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)] radical scavenging activities were higher in Cf Makgeolli (DPPH 74.63-84.64%, ABTS 51.01-64.79%) than in the control (DPPH 30.97%, ABTS 21.21%). Makgeolli supplemented with 10 and 20% Cf had the highest taste, smell, and overall acceptance scores. This study suggests that Makgeolli supplemented with 10 and 20% Cf could be developed due to its good physicochemical and microbiological characteristics, including high antioxidant properties and good consumer acceptance.

There is an increasing consumption of Makgeolli in both domestic and foreign markets due to a high interest in Korean traditional alcoholic beverages. However, currently, a standardized system of manufacturing, storing and circulating Makgeolli is not available. Therefore, manufacturing the constant quality of finished products is hardly achieved due to the uncertified quality index of Makqeolli. In particular, quality changes occur as a result of variable initial load of microorganisms during shelf life. Eight different commercially available brands of Makgeolli were obtained, and their initial concentrations of yeasts were measured. One brand with the highest concentration was chosen, and the variable initial concentrations were prepared at a concentration of $10^6{\sim}10^8$ yeast CFU/ml. These Makgeolli samples were heat-treated at 65, 70, 75 or $80^{\circ}C$. It was shown that temperatures higher than $75^{\circ}C$ were needed in order to pasteurize Makgeolli properly. In addition;it is considered that controlling the microorganisms by a standardized system for the processing analysis would improve the quality of Makgeolli.

Purpose: Makgeolli is a traditional alcoholic beverage made from rice with a fermentation starter called "nuruk." The concentration of alcohol in makgeolli depends on the temperature of the fermentation tank. It is important to monitor the alcohol concentration to manage the makgeolli production process. Methods: Data were collected from 84 makgeolli fermentation tanks over a year period. Independent variables included the temperatures of the tanks and the room where the tanks were located, as well as the quantity, acidity, and water concentration of the source. Software for the multilayer perceptron model (MLP) was written in Python using the Scikit-learn library. Results: Many models were created for which the optimization converged within 100 iterations, and their coefficients of determination $R^2$ were considerably high. The coefficient of determination $R^2$ of the best model with the training set and the test set were 0.94 and 0.93, respectively. The fact that the difference between them was very small indicated that the model was not overfitted. The maximum and minimum error was approximately 2% and the total MSE was 0.078%. Conclusions: The MLP model could help predict the alcohol concentration and to control the production process of makgeolli. In future research, the optimization of the production process will be studied based on the model.
