Soybean curd residue (SCR) was fermented by lactic acid bacteria, Lactobacillus rhamnosus LS and Entercoccus faecium LL, isolated from SCR. The pH, titratable acidify and viable cell counts were determined from the fermented SCR to evaluate the lactic acid production and growth of lactic acid bacteria. Optimal amounts of pretense enzyme and glucose, and ideal fermentation time for SCR fermentation were estimated by response surface methodology (RSM). Raw SCR fermented by indigenous microorganisms had 0.78 % titratable acidity, The acid production in SCR fermented by L. rhamnosus LS was greatly enhanced by the addition of glucose and lactose. However only glucose increased acid production by Ent. faecium LL. The proof test of SCR fermentation demonstrated that similar results for titratable acidity, tyrosine content and viable cell counts to that predicted could be obtained by the at optimized fermentation conditions. In the presence of 0.029 % (w/w) pretense enzyme and 0.9% (w/w) glucose, the SCR fermented by Ent. faecium LL showed 1.07% (w/v) of titratable acidity, 1.02 mg% tyrosine content and 2$\times$10$^{9}$ (cfu/g) of viable cell counts. With the SCR fortified with 0.033% pretense enzyme and 1.7% glucose, L. rhamnosus LS showed 1.8% (w/v) of titratable acidity, 0.92 mg% of tyrosine content and 2$\times$10$^{9}$ (cfu/g) of viable cell counts.

The induction of crassulacean acid metabolism(CAM) characterized by day/night acid fluctuation was investigated in leaves from 10 days exposure to elevated $CO_2$ concentration(1,000 ${\mu}L\;L^{-1}CO_2).$ For Pereskia aculeata, have $C_3-like$ gas exchange pattern in well watered condition and shift into CAM-like in water stress, showed a more typical CAM-like diurnal acid fluctuation. Whereas the massive diurnal fluctuation of acidity in typical CAM of Kalanchoe rosea was declined. The effect of short-term exposure to various concentrations of $CO_2$ on titratable acidity in P. aculeata and K. rosea was also investigated. To investigate the response of various $CO_2$ concentrations, four different $CO_2$ levels(350, 700, 1,000 and 1,500 ${\mu}L\;L^{-1})$ were imposed for 24hr and measured the titratable acidity at 06:00, when the acidity was maximum, and 14:00, when the acidity was minimum. The accumulation of acid in P. aculeata was enhanced markedly by higher concentration of $CO_2,$ while the level of acidity in f rosea did not highly respond to $CO_2.$ A notable difference between P. aculeata and K. rosea was the response of de-acidification to a higher concentration of $CO_2$ Increasing with $CO_2,$ the degree of do-acidification of P. auleata was increased while that of K. rosea was depressed.

소금농도와 저장기간이 깍두기의 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 깍두기의 관능적 특성, pH 및 적정산도를 측정하였으며 capillary gas chromatography로 비휘발성 유기산을 정성 및 정량 분석하여 비교하였다. 소금농도와 저장기간은 깍두기의 질긴 정도를 제외한 모든 관능적 특성에 영향을 주어 소금농도 2%군은 1%와 3%군에 비해 단단한 정도와 아삭아삭한 정도가 낮고 신맛이 강하였으며, 저장 8일군은 4일군보다 신맛과 이취는 강하나 단단한 정도와 아삭아삭한 정도는 낮았다. 저장기간이 증가할수록 pH는 감소하고 산도는 증가하였으며, 이 현상은 특히 2%군에서 두드러지게 나타났다. 깍두기에서 추출한 비휘발성 유기산으로는 lactic acid, succinic acid 및 citric acid가 대부분이었으며 소금농도 2%군은 다른 실험군들에 비해 유기산 생성량이 많았다. 이상의 결과에서 볼 때 소금농도 2%는 1%와 3%에 비해 깍두기의 연부를 억제하고 산의 생성을 감소시키는 숙성 억제효과가 낮았으며 깍두기의 신맛은 pH보다는 산도와 비휘발성 유기산 함량에 더 관련이 많았다.

Background: Erosion is a gradual process that occurs fairly quickly, and the full extent of the erosive effects of acidic beverages is not yet clear. The present study aimed to determine the differences in the erosive potentials among four naturally acidic fruit nectars within the same range of titratable acidity and to determine the influence of the components of organic acids on tooth erosion. Methods: Diluted fruit nectars (mandarin 1:1.1, orange 1:1.7, lemon 1:15, grapefruit 1:20) with the same range of titratable acidity (7.9 ml) and their corresponding organic acids (0.05%, 0.1%, 0.3%, and 0.5% citric acid, malic acid, and a citric and malic acid mixture [pH 2.8], respectively) were used. Specimens were placed in conical tubes with 50 ml of each of the test solutions for 1 hour. A microhardness test and scanning electron microscopy were used to measure enamel erosion. Acid separation was carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography to analyze the composition of each test solution. Results: Similar decreases in the Vickers hardness number (VHN) were observed among the groups treated with the following diluted fruit nectars: diluted mandarin nectar ($75.9{\Delta}VHN$), diluted lemon nectar ($89.1{\Delta}VHN$), diluted grapefruit nectar ($91.7{\Delta}VHN$), and diluted orange nectar ($92.5{\Delta}VHN$). No statistically significant differences were found in the enamel surface hardness after erosion (p>0.05). Citric and malic acids were the major organic acids in the test fruits. The lemon and orange groups had the highest malic acid concentrations, and the mandarin group had the lowest malic acid concentration. Conclusion: The titratable acidity and the citric and malic acid contents of the fruits could be crucial factors responsible for enamel erosion. Therefore, fruit-based drinks should be regarded as potentially erosive.

Effects of various monosodium glutamate(MSG_ concentration (0-400mg%) on the quality of Korean cabbage kimchi during fermentation at 2$0^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The growth of lactic acid bacteria titratable acidity pH content of thiamine ascorbic acid $\beta$-carotene and sensory evaluation were observed in the presencve of MSG. Titratable acidity was increased in the kimchi contained MSG during the fermentation.l Wheeas the changes of pH in the kimchi contained MSG were similar to those in control, Maximum growth of lactic acid bacteria was observed after 49 hour of fermentation in kimchi contained with 200mg MSG. The might be due to the fact that MSG was given optimum pH for acid bacteria growth because of its buffering action. Therefore the periods of kimchi fermentation were reduced by addition of MSG, MSG also affected on the stability of ascorbic acid thiamine and $\beta$-carotene. According of MSG. MSG also affected on the stability of ascorbic acid thiamine and $\beta$-carotene. According to sensory evaluation MSG reduced sour taste in kimchi which increased edible periods.

This study was undertaken to examine the effects of fresh ginseng on the physicochemical and microbiological changes in dongchimi juice fermented under various conditions. The pH was somewhat lower in dongchimi juice added with 2.0% and 4.0% of fresh ginseng than that without ginseng, whereas the titratable acidity was higher in dongchimi juice with 2.0% and 4.0% of ginseng addition than the control. The addition of fresh ginseng to dongchimi preparation increased the numbers of total viable bacteria, lactic acid bacteria including Leuconostac mesenterotdes in dongchimi juice during fermentation. The changes in the counts of lactic acid bacteria were similar to those of total viable cells throughout the experiment except the initial stage of fermentation. However, the number of Leucosfastoc mesenternidgs decreased after the palatable stage. Key words : Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, dongchlmi juice, pH, titratable acidity, microbiological changes.

Effect of modified atmosphere packaging conditions on quality changes of dry jujube was investigated. Dry jujubes with moisture content of 26.7% were packaged in PET/Al/PE film pouches with modified atmospheres. The tested packages include those with normal air, vacuum, CO2 flushing, N2 flushing and O2 scavenger. Packages were stored at 25$^{\circ}C$ for 6 months, during which ascorbic acid concentration, browning level, titratable acidity and surface color were measured. Generally modified atmosphere packages could improve quality retention of dry jujubes except that vacuum package resulted in large surface color change. CO2-flushed package showed the best quality retention of high ascorbic acid content and low browning during 112 days, but caused high amounts of ascorbic acid destruction and browning in longer storage. In all the modified atmosphere packages titratable acidity reached a maximum followed by decline and subsequent rise, while it increased linearly with time in normal air package. Considering ascorbic acid retention browning level and surface color changes during 112 days, the packages of CO2 flushing and N2 flushing were better than others.

This study was carried out to survey the effect of Jujube extract on the growth of 3 strains of lactic acid bacteria(LBA) starter cultures in the MRS broth by the addition of 0, 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 2% extract The pH, titratable acidity and OD of LAB were investigated in order to get fundamental knowledge for the development a new product. The effects of Jujube extract on the growth of LAB were variable depending upon the LAB species and concentrations of Jujube extract significantly (p<0.05). In the results, Jujube extract enhanced the acid production and propagation by the 3 LAB strains with increasing concentration of Jujube extracts until 2.0% added was to the MRS broth medium (p<0.05). Addition of Jujube extract markedly stimulated the acid production and propagation of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus and Bifidobacterium longum.

Freeze dried crude bacteriocin was encapsulated within an acid-soluble coating material, Eudragit EPO, using a surface modification technique through a hybridization system. The pH and titratable acidity of control yoghurt were 3.92 and 1.56%, respectively, after 24 hr of fermentation at $42^{\circ}C$, whereas yoghurt containing 500 AU/mL encapsulated bacteriocin exhibited a higher pH (4.37) and lower titratable acidity (1.2%). Yoghurt containing encapsulated bacteriocin had significantly lower titratable acidity when the duration of fermentation (to pH 4.5) and subsequent refrigerated storage ($4^{\circ}C$) was longer than 20 days. There were no significant differences in the viability of lactic acid bacteria after 15 hr of fermentation. This suggests that microencapsulated bacteriocin has the potential to control the excessive growth of yoghurt starters caused by temperature abuse or post-acidification.
