Leuconostoc spp. are generally utilized as kimchi starters, because these strains are expected to have beneficial effects on kimchi fermentation, including improvement of sensory characteristics. Here, we developed a detection method for verifying the presence of the kimchi starter Leuconostoc mesenteroides WiKim33, which is used for control of kimchi fermentation. A primer set for multiplex polymerase chain reaction was designed based on the nucleotide sequence of the plasmids in strain WiKim33, and their specificity was validated against 45 different strains of Leuconostoc spp. and 30 other strains. Furthermore, the starter strain consistently tested positive, regardless of the presence of other bacterial species in starter kimchi during the fermentation period. Our findings showed that application of a strain-specific primer set for strain WiKim33 presented a rapid, sensitive, and specific method for detection of this kimchi starter strain during natural kimchi fermentation.

In order to establish the processing condition of rapid- and low salt-fermented liquefaction of anchovy (Engrulis japonica), effect of temperature on crude enzyme activity of anchovy viscera, pretreatment conditions, and the minimum content of adding NaCl were investigated. The minimum limitation of NaCl content for anchovy liquefaction was 10%. Sample A(water adding, heating, adding 10% NaCl): chopped whole anchovy adding 20% water and then heating for 9 hrs at $50^{\circ}C$ and then adding 10% NaCl and then fermented at room temperature$(8-29^{\circ}C)$ for 180 days. Sample B(water adding, heating, adding 13% NaCl): chopped whole anchovy adding 20% water and then heating for 9 hrs at $50^{\circ}C$ and then adding 13% NaCl and then fermented at room temperature for 180 days. Sample C(adding 13% NaCl): chopped whole anchovy and then adding 13% NaCl and then fermented at room temperature for 180 days. Sample D(adding 17% NaCl): whole anchovy adding 17% NaCl and then fermented at room temperature for 180 days. The content of free amino acids such as aspartic acid, serine and threonine fluctuated severely according to the pretreatment methods. Possibly they might be recommend quality indices of standardization for salt-fermented liquefaction of anchovy. As for the relation between fermentation period(X) and individual free amino acid(Y), five kinds of free amino acids such as glutamic acid, valine, glycine, lysine, and alanine showed highly significant in their coefficient of determination in most of samples. They might be recommend as quality indices for salt-fermented liquefaction of anchovy during fermentation. The difference of taste between products of the rapid- and low salt-fermented liquefaction and the traditional salt-fermented liquefaction were caused by their composition of the free amino acids ratios, in which were umami, sweet, and bitter taste in the extracts of anchovy during fermentation. The appropriate fermentation period of the sample A was shorten 30 days than the sample B and 60 days than the samples C and 90 days than the sample D in the processing of anchovy.

The aim of this study was to find out the rapid fermentation of soy sauce from koji hydrolyzate using column type reactor packed with immobilized yeast cells. Each immobilized cell of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii BH-90 and Candida versatilis BH-91 in the packed column type reactor produced 2.8% ethyl alcohol and 18mg/l 4-ethylguaiacol over 96 hours under the optimal condition. Continuous fermentation was performed by immobilized Z. rouxii BH-90 packed in column type reactor. Immobilized Z. rouxii BH-90 produced 2.30~2.85% ethyl alcohol during 30 days, and decreased gradually from 40 days to 80 days. Also C. versatilis BH-91 produced 4-ethylguaiacol at the constant rate of 16~18mg/l and decreased gradually after 40 days. Final product of soy sauce contained 2.8% ethyl alcohol and 18mg/l 4-ethylguaiacol. However, amino acid compositions of final products were consisted of predominantly glutamic acid, leucine, arginine, aspartic acid, lysine and valine, which were more than 50% of total amino acid.

Changes in ATP and related compounds, TMAO, TMA, creatine and creatinine were analyzed to establish the processing conditions for rapid- and low salt-fermented liquefaction of anchovy(Engrulis japonica) extracts during fermentation. Experimental sample A: chopped whole anchovy, adding 20% water, heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs and then adding 10% NaCl. Sample B: chopped whole anchovy, adding 20% water, heating at $50^{\circ}C$ for 9 hrs and then adding 13% NaCl. Sample C: chopped whole anchovy adding 13% NaCl. Sample D: whole anchovy adding 17% NaCl. ATP, ADP, AMP and IMP were broken down during fermentation period, while inosine and hypoxanthine or hypoxanthine were detected in each fermented liquefaction of anchovy. However the amounts of them were varied from collection to collection according to the pretreatment methods. Possibly ATP and their related compounds will not make a great contribution to the umami taste in fermented liquefaction of anchovy. The contents of TMAO were decreased during fermentation period, ranging from 3 to 15 mg/100g in the fermented liquefaction of anchovy after 180 days. The TMA contents were increased slowly during fermentation period, ranging from 60 to 114 mg/100g in the 180 days specimens, however their contents were varied from sample to sample. The contents of creatine and creatinine were increased during early fermentation period, and then they were decreased in the last period. As for distribution of nitrogen in the anchovy extracts, the contribution of creatine and creatinine to the extractive nitrogen was occupying 6.8, 5.7, 4.6 and 5.7% in the experimental sample A, B, C and D, respectively. The contribution of ATP and related compounds to the extractive nitrogen was occupying 2.1, 2.4, 2.2 and 2.7% in the experimental sample A, B, C and D, respectively. The contribution of TMAO and TMA to the extractive nitrogen was very low as they are occupying $0.7{\sim}1.2%$ in the four experimental samples.

In research. which Korean pickled cucumber was treated wish various methods, including blanching. brining in hot solution, and treating with trehalose. I examined the changes of properties of material. The Korean pickled cucumber were fermented 4∼5$^{\circ}C$ for 42 days in 1% salt solution. The physiochemical properties were pH, total acidity, total cell count, lactic acid bacteria and texture properties were also evaluated. The result showed that the effect of blanching and soaking cucumber in 100$^{\circ}C$ hot salt solution significantly reduced the softening rate of texture while a rather rapid fermentation was found for those preserved with salt. The effect of trehalose treatment inhenced fermentation but it was significantly reduced softening rate of texture. The texture evaluation of Korean pickled cucumber was found that heat treatment with blanching after soaked in hot solution and trehalose treatment had a positive effect for reduction of softening of cucumber tissue.

In order to improve funtionality of kochujang, red ginseng powder(1, 2 and 5% red ginseng on the total weight basis) was added to the raw material of kochujang. Changes in moisture content, microflora and enzyme activities were investigated in control kochujang(Sunchang kochujang) and red ginseng added kochujang during fermentation at 25oC for 120 days. Kochujang samples fremented for 90 and 120 days were subjected to sensory evaluation test. As the fermentation progressed, the moisture content and titratable acidity were gradually increased whereas pH was decreased. However, red ginseng had no effects on those changes. Bacterial count was maintained at the level of 107 CFU/g during fermentation. The level of yeast count was 104 CFU/g at the early stage of fermentation and increaed to 107 CFU/g after 60 days of fermentation and then maintained at 107 CFU/g. Red-ginseng had no effects on bacterial and yeast counts of kochujang. Amylase activity was gradually reduced during fermentation. Amylase activity was increased until 60 days of fermentation and then reduced by 90 days of fermentation. Acidic protease activity was slightly reduced at the initial stage of fermentation and then rapid increased. Acidic protease activity was at the highest level after 120 days of fermentation. Red ginseng did not alter those enzyme activities of kochujang. There were no differences in sensory properties between kochujang samples fermented for 90 and 120 days of fermentation. The addition of red-ginseng did not affect such sensory properties of kochujang as color, odor, hot taste and salty taste, but overall preference appeared to be improved by red ginseng addition.

(3) In all of the soy-souses, the content of free amino acids displayed a liner proportional increament until 8 weeks and then slower increose. (4) In all of the soy-souses the content of reducing sugars indicated a slight increase until 4 weeks, and after this it showed a rapid decrease until 4 weeks, in the improved soy-souses and, then maintained an almost flat curve. In the ordinary and Compromised soy-souses there was a rapid decrease in reducing sugars until 6 weeks, and then an almost 리at curves. (5) In the ordinary soy-sauce the SAMWOL-ZANG-BUB(soy-sauce prepared in March) is considered to be based on a comparatively scientific ground during the fermentative period. (6) In order to improve the taste in ordinary soy-sauce it is favorable to delay the period of preparation. The adequate period appears requires 8 weeks at least. Accordingly it is recommended to mix the materials with carbohydrate source. (7) In the improved soy-sauce according to the SAMWOL-ZANG-BUB of ordinary soy-sauce it is thought that 8 weeks were adequate for the fermentation. (8) The compromised method may be recommended for the improvement of nomemade soy-souce, and it may be also superior to the ordinary soy-sauce in quality.

Bacteria 군집 차이를 이용한 신속한 한국산 및 중국산 김치 원산지 판별 가능성의 검토를 위하여 Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP) 분석법을 적용하였다. T-RFLP 분석은 김치발효에 관여하는 주요 유산균의 빠르고, 재현성 있는 검출에는 효과적이었지만, 종(species) 수준에서의 미생물 확인에는 한계를 가지고 있어 한국산 및 중국산 김치에 특이적으로 존재하는 bacteria의 검출에는 부적합한 것으로 평가되었다. T-RFLP를 적용한 발효과정 중의 한국산 및 중국산 김치에 존재하는 bacteria 군집 천이 분석은 비슷한 양상으로 나타났고, Bacillus 속이 발효 후기까지 검출되었다. 또한 Bacillus 속은 발효 후기에 포자를 형성하는 것으로 확인되었다.
