이번 연구의 목적은 pH, 적정산도, 형광소실도(△F)를 이용하여 혼합주의 부식위험성과 부식능에 대해 평가하고자 하였다. 실험군은 다음과 같이 분류하였다: 소주, 깔라만시+소주, 요구르트+소주, 콜라+소주, 에너지드링크+소주. 혼합주는 소주와 음료수를 7:3의 비율로 혼합하였다. pH와 적정산도(TA5.5, TA7.0; 음료의 pH를 5.5와 7.0까지 끌어 올리는데 필요한 1M NaOH의 양)는 교반하면서 pH미터기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 혼합주의 부식능은 우치를 1, 2, 4, 6시간 동안 침적하였다가 각 시간마다 꺼내어 quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF-D)를 이용하여 촬영, 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 혼합주는 평균 pH는 3.17 ± 0.50, 소주의 pH는 8.6 ± 0.01를 나타내었다. TA5.5와 TA7.0는 각각 0.5~18, 0.5~23.5의 분포를 나타내었다. 요구르트 혼합주를 제외한 나머지 혼합주의 △F는 시간이 지남에 따라 증가하였으며, 요구르트 혼합주에서는 부식이 나타나지 않았다. 결론적으로, 깔라만시 혼합주가 가장 강한 산성과 부식능을 보였으며, 요구르트가 가장 약한 부식능을 나타냈다. 혼합주는 치아 법랑질에 강한 부식위험성을 가지고 있으므로, 이에 대한 주의와 교육이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Physiological characteristics of five new apple cultivars from the Korean apple breeding program were evaluated as a function of harvest time and storage after harvest. Internal ethylene concentration (IEC), flesh firmness, soluble solids concentration (SSC), and titratable acidity (TA) were measured in 'Summer Dream', 'Summer King', 'Green Ball', 'Picnic', and 'Hwangok' apples at harvest, during shelf life at $20^{\circ}C$, and one day after cold storage at $0.5^{\circ}C$ in air. IEC increased during shelf life in 'Summer Dream', 'Summer King', and 'Green Ball' but not in 'Picnic' or 'Hwangok', regardless of harvest time. Flesh firmness decreased towards harvest time and decreased gradually with time in cold storage only in the former three cultivars. In turn, IEC increased during cold storage in the first three cultivars but not for the last two cultivars, irrespective of harvest time. Changes in SSC and TA did not consistently relate to harvest time or storage period but TA tended to decrease as IEC increased. Furthermore, IEC was negatively correlated with flesh firmness except in the 'Green Ball' cultivar but the significance level was much greater in 'Summer Dream' and 'Summer King' (p < 0.0001) than in 'Picnic' (p < 0.01) or 'Hwangok' (p < 0.05) cultivars. Flesh firmness was positively correlated with TA in the first three cultivars but not in the last two cultivars. Overall, the results indicate that cultivars for which IEC increased after harvest had reduced flesh firmness and TA after storage.

Objective: The aim of the study was to find a possible association between the ${\beta}-$ and ${\kappa}-casein$ and ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$ genotypes and important milk physiochemical and technological characteristics such as acidity, alcohol stability, the contents of some minerals and the parameters of acid fermentation ability (FEA) in Czech Fleckvieh Cattle. Methods: Milk and blood samples were collected from 338 primiparous Czech Fleckvieh cows at the same stage of lactation. The genotypes of individual cows for ${\kappa}-casein$ (alleles A, B, and E) and ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$ (alleles A and B) were ascertained by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, while their ${\beta}-casein$ (alleles $A^1$, $A^2$, $A^3$, and B) genotype was determined using melting curve genotyping analysis. The data collected were i) milk traits including active acidity (pH), titratable acidity (TA), alcohol stability (AS); calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K) contents; and ii) yoghurt traits including active acidity (Y-pH), titratable acidity (Y-TA), and the counts of both Lactobacilli and Streptococci in 1 mL of yoghurt. A linear model was assumed with fixed effects of herd, year, and season of calving, an effect of the age of the cow at first calving and effects of the casein and lactoglobulin genotypes of ${\beta}-CN$ (${\beta}-casein$, CSN2), ${\kappa}-CN$ (${\kappa}-casein$, CSN3), and ${\beta}-LG$ (${\beta}-lactoglobulin$, LGB), or the three-way interaction between those genes. Results: The genetic polymorphisms were related to the milk TA, AS, content of P and Ca, Y-pH and Lactobacilli number in the fresh yoghurt. The CSN3 genotype was significantly associated with milk AS (p<0.05). The effect of the composite CSN2-CSN3-LGB genotype on the investigated traits mostly reflected the effects of the individual genes. It significantly influenced TA (p<0.01), Y-pH (p<0.05) and the log of the Lactobacilli count (p<0.05). Conclusion: Our findings indicate that the yoghurt fermentation test together with milk proteins genotyping could contribute to milk quality control and highlight new perspectives in dairy cattle selection.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the erosive potential of several fruit-flavored liquors marketed in Korea by measuring pH, titratable acidity, and variations in pH utilizing an ISO method. Materials and Methods: Six fruit-flavored liquors were investigated. An orange juice and three kinds of soju were selected as the control beverage. The pH and titratable acidity of the beverages were determined by 1 M NaOH until the pH 5.5 and 7.0 (recorded as $TA_{5.5}$ and $TA_{7.0}$, respectively). All measurements were performed in triplicate. The process of ISO 28888 was used for measurement of the pH variation (${\Delta}pH$) using an under-saturated hydroxyapatite solution (screening solution) and determining the difference between the initial and final pH of the screening solution. The average ${\Delta}pH$ was determined based on 4 measurements. Results: All the fruit-flavored liquors tested in this study showed a pH lower than the critical pH for dental erosion (4.5). The average pH of the fruit-flavored liquors was 2.77 and was also lower than the pH of the soju and an orange juice (control drinks). $TA_{5.5}$ and $TA_{7.0}$ values of the fruit-flavored liquors were 4.92ml and 7.13ml, respectively. The fruit-flavored liquors showed an erosive potential capable of damaging the enamel surfaces, whereas the orange juice had the highest titratable acidity. The changes in pH determined using the screening solution confirmed that the fruit-flavored liquors had erosive potential, with ${\Delta}pH$ value of 1.53. Conclusions: The fruit-flavored liquors tested in this study might have a strong potential to erode dental hard tissues.

Objectives: The aim of this investigation was to give insights into the impact of carbohydrate-electrolyte drinks on the likely capacity of enamel surface dissolution and the influence of human saliva exposure as a biological protective factor. Materials and Methods: The pH, titratable acidity (TA) to pH 7.0, and buffer capacity (${\beta}$) of common beverages ingested by patients under physical activity were analyzed. Then, we randomly distributed 50 specimens of human enamel into 5 groups. Processed and natural coconut water served as controls for testing three carbohydrate-electrolyte drinks. In all specimens, we measured surface microhardness (Knoop hardness numbers) and enamel loss (profilometry, ${\mu}m$) for baseline and after simulated intake cycling exposure model. We also prepared areas of specimens to be exposed to human saliva overnight prior to the simulated intake cycling exposure. The cycles were performed by alternated immersions in beverages and artificial saliva. ANOVA two-way and Tukey HDS tests were used. Results: The range of pH, TA, and ${\beta}$ were 2.85 - 4.81, 8.33 - 46.66 mM/L and 3.48 - $10.25mM/L{\times}pH$, respectively. The highest capacity of enamel surface dissolution was found for commercially available sports drinks for all variables. Single time human saliva exposure failed to significantly promote protective effect for the acidic attack of beverages. Conclusions: In this study, carbohydrate-electrolyte drinks usually consumed during endurance training may have a greater capacity of dissolution of enamel surface depending on their physicochemical proprieties associated with pH and titratable acidity.

Quality characteristics of tomatoes irradiated with light (red light of far-red light followed two days later with a red light treatment), treated with ethylene, and stored in darkness were evaluated by subjective sensory and objective physical and chemical evaluations. Overall and individual liking evaluations and sensory evaluations were made by an untrained panel of eighteen people. A rankin gof treatments for consumer (panelist) acceptability was also conducted by the panel. Physical and chemical evaluations included surface color measurement (L*, a*, and b*), mechanical puncturing (firmness), soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity(TA), and tomato juice pH. Sensory data showed that outside color, inside color, and flavor of tomatoes treated with red light (R) and far-red light/red light (FR/R) were scored significantly higher than those of tomatoes treated with ethylene and those kept in darkness. The L* values for tomatoes treated with R and FR/R were lower (more darkening) than those for tomatoes treated with ethylene and those stored in darkness. Tomatoes treated with FR/R had the highest A* values, followed by those irradiated with R, treated with ethylene, and kept in darkness, respectively. Sensory values for firmness were similar for tomatoes treated with R, FR/R, and ethylene. Treatments had no significantly different effects on sweetness and acidity. There were no significantly different effects between treatments for pH, SSC, TA, and SSC/TA. From observations made during the study, it was suggested that R irradiation stimulated red color development in tomatoes after it had been delayed by FR irradiation. Consumer acceptability for tomatoes with either R or FR/R treatment was significantly higher than that for tomatoes treated with ethylene or stored in darkness. panelists' overall liking scores correlated well with all sensory variables except acidity, and also correlated highly with inside color, flavor, and sweetness (P<0.001). Overall liking versus flavor had the most pronounced relationship (r=0.78, P<0.001).

A cultured milk product was made by fennenting 10$\%$ reconstituted skim milk with Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis TA29 and Saccharomyces exiguus SK2. L. lactis TA29 and S. exiguus SK2 grew up to 1.0 $\times 10^9\;and\;2.0 \times 10^6$ cfu/ml, respectively. After the fermentation 21$\%$ of lactose was hydrolyzed, pH was lowered to 4.2, and titratable acidity and alcohol concentration were increased to 0.96 and 0.023$\%$, respectively. When the fermented milk was stored at $4{\circ}C$ for 9 days, the viable cell counts for L. lactis TA29 and S. exiguus SK2 were $6.5 \times 10^5\;and\;1.6 \times 10^6$ cfu/rnl, respectively. The alcoholic fermented milk prepared in this experiment was more inhibitory against some pathogenic bacteria including C. perfringens than commercial yoghurt products tested.

적당한 발효가 끝난 후 저장중에 산패되지 않는 깍뚜기를 만들 수 있는 무우품종 선발 및 개량에 관한 연구를 하였다. 깍뚜기 등의 김치류가 시어지는 현상은 재료중의 발효성 당을 주로 젖산균이 발효하여 산이 과다하게 생기기 때문이므로 우선 무우의 품종별 또 재배 계절별 굴절 당도를 측정하고 이들 무우를 발효하여 무우가 갖는 굴절 당도와 최종적으로 얻을 수 있는 적정 산도를 비교하였다. 봄무우의 당도는 2.40-3.71%로서 발효가 완전히 끝나는 데에 걸리는 기간은 16-18일로서 비교적 짧았으며 최종적정산도는 1.15-1.65% 이었고 가을무우의 경우 당도는 4.00-5.53%로서 30-32일 만에 발효가 끝났으며 최종 적정산도는 1.45-2.00%였다. 따라서 발효하여 최종적으로 얻을 수 있는 산도는 대체적으로 원료 무에 함유된 당함량에 비례하며 그 관계는 적정산도$(\overbrace{Y})=0.29x+0.4228$이었다. 적당히 발효된 김치류의 적정 산도는 0.6-0.8%의 범위이므로 위 식의 x값 범위는 0.61-1.30범위에 든다. 즉 무우의 당도가 1.3% 이하이면 깍뚜기는 시어지지 않는다는 계산이 나오므로 이러한 당 농도를 갖는 품종을 선발하거나 종자를 개량한다면 어떤 인위적인 처리를 하지 않아도 시어지지 않는 김치류를 만들 수 있다고 본다. 한편 포도당이나 Peptone둥을 보충하여 발효하여도 적정 산도가 증가하지 않았던 점으로 보아 무우에는 굴절 당도와 비례하여 함유되어 있으면서 발효를 촉진시키는 미지의 물질이 있는 것으로 판단된다.

A bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacterium, which strongly inhibited the Lactobacillus plantarum recognized as an important acid spoilage microorganism in kimchi fermentation, was isolated from kimchi. From morphological, physiological, sugar fermentation, biochemical tests, and l6S rDNA sequencing results, the isolate was identified as an Enterococcus sp. and designated as Enterococcus sp. K25. The bacteriocin produced by Enterococcus sp. K25 inhibited several Gram-positive bacteria, including Lb. plantarum, whereas it did not inhibit Gram-negative bacteria and yeasts. Optimal temperature and pH for the bacteriocin production were $25^\circ{C}$ and 5.5, respectively. Enterococcus sp. K25 was applied to kimchi manufacturing alone and together with other preservatives (i.e., chitosan and fumaric acid). In addition, growth of lactic acid bacteria, pH, and titratable acidity (TA) were measured during aging at $5^\circ{C}$ and $10^\circ{C}$. Inoculation of Enterococcus sp. K25 together with fumaric acid showed the most synergistic effect on extension of kimchi shelf-life. Compared to control (no addition), the treatment prolonged the kimchi shelf-life up to 6 days, whereupon the eight-point TA value recognized as the edible limit was reached.
