This study was undertaken to assess the effect of the Korean red ginseng extracts on the growth of lactic acid bacteria, such as Lac. acidophilus and Str. thermophilus. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The growth of all the lactic acid bacteria tested in this study was not influenced when the skim milk was added with the red ginseng extracts in concentration of less than 4.0%. But the growth was remarkably inhibited in the presence of 8.0% red ginseng extracts in skim milk. 2. Titratable acidity was more or less increased by addition of red ginseng extracts as compared with control except when the amount of 8.0% red ginseng extracts were added into skim milk. 3. No particular effect was observed in the growth of lactic acid bacteria in case of addition of saponins. But the remarkable inhibitory effect was observed in the skim milk with the amount of 1.2mg/ml the fractions extracted by ethyl ether from red ginseng extracts.

The study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of peach vinegar by parallel-complex fermentations. The vinegars prepared by using Changbnag-Chosang and Yumung peach cultivars added with 7, 10, and 13% sugaring concentrations were examined. The rate of increase in alcohol degree and titratable acidity, and that of decrease in soluble solids showed higher at Yumyung peach than at Changbang-chosang. Alcohol and acetic acid fermentation by paralle-complex fermentation were performed better in Yumyung peach than Changbang -chosang. but the fermentation of Yumyung showed active alcohol fermentation in the early stage, and active acetic acetic acid fermentation in the late stage. Quality of the vinegar prepared with Yumyung peach was better than that of Changbang-chosang, which were evaluated by acetic acid contents , peach taste and odor in the vinegar, and overall taste. The fermentation was accelerated with an increase in sugaring , concentrating but overall taste was best in 10 % sugaring.

Mul-kimchi was prepared with addition of 0.025, 0.05, and 0.1% (w/v) chlorella powder and fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 6 days. Quality characteristics of the Mul-kimchi were evaluated in terms of acid production (pH and titratable acidity) and lactic acid bacterial counts during fermentation. The addition of chlorella powder stimulated the growth of lactic acid bacteria and significantly enhanced the acid production. After 3 days fermentation, titratable acidity of chlorella Mul-kimchi was 0.12-0.14% and was higher than that (0.11%) of Mul-kimchi made without chlorella. The acid production and the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell increased with increasing the concentration of added chlorella powder. The sensory score of Mul-kimchi added with 0.05% chlorella powder showed the highest values in taste and overall acceptability among the tested Mul-kimchi preparations. When chlorella Mul-kimchi preparations incubated for 3 days were kept at $4^{\circ}C$ for 19 days, their quality characteristics were well maintained through storage period. According to sensory score and storage ability, the optimum concentration of chlorella powder was around 0.05%.

For the development of mulberry wine, we investigated its optimum fermentation conditions as well as quality changes during fermentation. The physicochemical characteristics of the mulberry fruit used in the study were pH 4.56, 0.50% titratable acidity, and 13.0 $^{circ}Brix$ soluble solids. The mulberry wine fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCCM 12224 (Sc-24) at 24 $^{circ}Brix$ soluble solids and $26^{circ}C$ showed excellent characteristics in terms of ethanol production, titratable acidity, and redness. The sucrose, fructose, and glucose contents of the mulberry wine drastically decreased with fermentation time. The citric acid content was maintained during the fermentation period, and malic acid decreased, but lactic and succinic acids increased. The cyanidin-3-glucoside content, a major anthocyanin pigment, of the mulberry wine drastically decreased from 195.5 mg% at the initial stage of fermentation to 15.37 mg% at 2 days of fermentation. However, cyanidin-3-rutinoside decreased gradually. In summary, a mulberry wine of high quality was made by fermentation for 8 days at $26^{\circ}C$ using mashed mulberry fruit containing $24^{\circ}Brix$ soluble solids, after adding 200 ppm $K_2S_2O_5$ and inoculating with 3%(v/v) Sc-24.

Quality characteristics of yogurt with added colored barely flour was investigated during fermentation by lactic acid bacteria. Chemical properties such as moisture, crude protein, starch, ash and ${\beta}$-glucan contents was measured. pH, acidity, brix, Hunter color value and growth of lactic acid bacteria in yogurt was investigated during fermentation by L. acidophilus, L. bulgaricus, and S. thermophilus mixed culture. Crude protein contents of Daeanchal and Boseokchal was 16.16 and 12.17%, respectively. Starch contents of daeanchal were shown lower score. The pH of yogurt by addition of barley flour (Daeanchal) addition 0 and 20% were 6.66 and 6.40, respectively. The pH of yogurt supplemented with barley flour tended to be lower than before control which was not added barely flours and oligosaccharide in yogurt. Titratable acidity of yogurt added barley flour was higher compared with that of control. Brix of yogurt was decreased during fermentation by lactic acid bacteria. Lightness of yogurt added barley flour (Daeanchal) addition 0 and 20% were 83.25 and 69.83, respectively. The original microbial population of the yogurt during 0, 5, 8, and 15 hr fermentation were 7.48, 7.79, 8.15, and 8.71 Log CFU/g, respectively. Moreover, the addition of colored barley flour was to promote the proliferation of lactic acid bacteria in yogurt. In our research, addition of colored barley flours added into the yogurt may also have contributed to growth of lactic acid bacteria.

The sterilization was attempted to improve the quality deterioration of soybean paste during its storage. For this experiment, soybean paste was sterilized at 80oC for 30 minutes and stored during 6 months at 15oC and 30oC, respectively. The total approximate composition contents were moisture 52.5%, crude protein 11.94%, crude fat 2.0%, amino nitrogen 413.3mg%, sodium chloride 11.61% and ash 15.5%. According to the increase of storage period, pH was decreased gradually because of the increase of organic acids by the metabolism of microorganisms and the acid accumulation by acid forming bacteria, but titratable acidity was increased during storage. Amino nitrogen was rapidly increased for the first one or two month storage period and maintained as the same level for the rest of them. Each amino acid contents of soybean paste, which were glutamic acid, tryptophan, proline, arginine, and aspartic acid, had much higher level than others. In color changes sterilized soybean paste(SSP) was much lower than that of raw ones(RSP). Hunter L and b values on the surface of soybean paste were decreased during storage, and the decreasing levels were higher at 30oC than at 15oC. Hunter a value, however, was increased a little in the initial storage, and thereafter it was decreased. Lactic acid bacteria, yeasts, and molds were disappeared completely by the sterilization. However, the bacteria of aerobes and anaerobes were not disappeared by this processing.

Physical and chemical characteristics of four white-and one yellow-fleshed peach cultivars were compared at optimum maturity stage. In addition, differences of phenolic composition, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activities and PPO isozyme patterns in two peach types were also investigated. There are no significant differences in firmness and color values between two peach types, except for "Yumyung", a white-fleshed peach with the highest firmness, and "Hwangdo", a yellow-fleshed peach with the highest yellowness (b)* value. In general, the soluble solid/titratable acidity ratios, ascorbic acid and total phenolic contents were significantly higher for white-fleshed peaches than those for yellow-fleshed peach (p<0.05). Three major phenolic compounds, catechin, neochlorogenic acid and chlorogenic acid, were found in both the white-and yellow-fleshed peaches. Among them, catechin was the predominant phenolic compound in the white-fleshed peaches, followed by neochlorogenic acid, and chlorogenic acid. Meanwhile, neochlorogenic acid was present in the highest level of the yellow-fleshed peach, but levels of two other phenolic compounds were lower. PPO activities of the white-fleshed peaches were generally higher than that of the yellow-fleshed peach, with the one major band and two minor bands, and there were no big differences in PPO isozyme patterns between two different peach cultivars.
