This study was conducted with a view toward enhancing the industrial utilization of a male sailfin sandfish Arctoscopus japonicus based on its application in the preparation of Sik-hae, a Korean traditional fermented fishery product prepared using hard-boiled rice and enzymatic malt sprouts. As an alternative to rice and malt sprouts, we evaluated the utility of rice Koji for Sik-hae fermentation by investigating the physicochemical changes that occur during fermentation. The sailfin sand fish Sik-hae fermented with 10% or 20% rice Koji was found to show similar fermentation characteristics to the control fermentation with 20% hard-boiled rice and 4% malt sprouts, with respect to acid production, texture profile, and the softening of bones during the entire fermentation period. In particular, compared with the control, the addition of 10% rice Koji reduced the dehydration of Sik-hae and increased the content of free amino acids, which contributed to preventing a marked reduction in pH during fermentation. Accordingly, 10% rice Koji is proposed as a viable alternative enzymatic agent for the preparation of Sik-hae, which can contribute enhancing the desired properties of this traditional food product.

In this study, we aimed to develop a fermented green rice beverage with a unique flavor and physiological function activity. With glutinous green rice and rice nuruk as independent variables, we modeled the antioxidant characteristics and α-glucosidase, α-amylase inhibitory activity of glutinous green rice fermented beverage to verify its significance. The total flavonoid content and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity were selected as Quadratic models, and DPPH radical scavenging ability and α-amylase inhibitory activity were selected as linear models. For the sensory characteristics of glutinous green rice fermented beverage, sweetness, sourness, savory taste, bitterness, throat feel, nuruk scent, and overall preference increased in preference as the amount of glutinous green rice and rice nuruk increased, but significantly decreased after the center point (p<0.01). A blending ratio of 180.00 g of glutinous green rice and 400.00 g of rice nuruk had the highest preference among all the sensory items. Based on these results, we developed a green rice fermented beverage with unique flavor and physiological function activity of rice using glutinous green rice and rice nuruk, and the optimal blending ratio was determined to be 164.04 g of white rice, 195.96 g of glutinous green rice, and 414.61 g of rice nuruk.

Jeung-pyun, a fermented rice cake, is prepared by fermenting rice sourdough using makgeolli, a traditional Korean rice wine, in the presence of yeast and lactic acid bacteria (LAB). The goal of this study was to conduct biochemical and microbial analyses of five different rice sourdoughs, each fermented with a different commercial makgeolli, using culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches. All sourdough samples fermented with different makgeolli for 6.5 h showed different profiles in pH, total titratable acidity, organic acid concentration, and microbial growth. LAB belonging to different genera were identified based on colony morphology on modified MRS and sourdough bacteria agar medium. PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analyses of the five sourdoughs showed different bands corresponding to LAB and yeast. 16S/26S rRNA gene sequence analyses of the samples confirmed that the predominant LAB in the five fermented rice doughs was Lactobacillus plantarum, Lb. pentosus, and Lb. brevis. Various other Lactobacillus spp. and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were common in all five fermented samples. This study provides comprehensive and comparative information on the microflora involved in fermentation of rice sourdough and signifies the need to develop effective starters to enrich the quality of jeung-pyun.

To develop a functional chungkookjang; the anticancer effects of chungkookjangs prepared with different varieties of soybeans, starters, fermentation periods and seasoning additive ratios; were studied against AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells using the MTT assay, at different stages chungkookjang processing. The chungkookjang samples exerted different antiproliferative effects according to the variety of soybeans used. The chungkookjangs manufactured with soybean var. manrikong exhibited the highest cytotoxicity against AGS human cancer cells. The chungkookjangs fermented with rice straw and B. licheniformis strongly inhibited the growth of the AGS human cancer cells. All fermented chungkookjangs had a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of the cancer cells; however, the non-fermented soybean (chungkookjang) showed a low inhibition rate. The fermented chungkookjangs mixed with red pepper powder (RPP) and garlic exhibited strong antiproliferative effect against the cancer cells, and chungkookjang prepaved with 1.1 % RPP and 1.1 % garlic showed the highest cytotoxicity against the cancer cells. The functional chungkookjang fermented with soybean variety of manrikong and B. licheniformis for 3 days at 4$0^{\circ}C$ and then mixed with 7.9% salt, 1.l% RPP and 1.1% garlic, exhibited a higher antiproliferative effect than the chungkookjangs prepared by traditional or modified methods, according to the MTT assay. The functional chungkookjang exhibited a similar anticancer effect to the traditional doenjang. These results indicate that the fermentation period and the ratio of seasoning additives, as well as the variety of soybeans and starter cultures may affect the degree of the anticancer effect of chungkookjang.

Antimutagenic effects of methanol extracts of various soybean pastes against aflatoxin B1 were examined using Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. Antimutagenic activities of boiled soybeans, Japanese Miso, traditional Korean soybean pastes, soybean pastes fermented by wild type strains, and soybean pastes fermented by mutants, transformants, and cell fusants were 53.6 to 54.6%, 73 to 79.7%, 78.3 to 95.7%, 85 to 97.1%, 71.9 to 78.3%, 65.5 to 77.7%, and 73.4 to 79.0%, respectively. Soybean pastes fermented by wild type strains showed higher activities than those fermented by mutant, transformant, and cell fusant strains.

This study categorized and made considerations of the fermented soybean pastes into Meju, Chungjang, Si, mixed Jang, and other Jang in accordance with the manufacturing methods described in the fermented soybean paste section of Sangayorok (1450's), Suunjapbang (1540's) and Gyemiseo (1554). These are ancient cook books written in Chinese characters during the first half of the Joseon Dynasty. The content on the fermented soybean pastes recorded in these books included 24 items in Sangayorok, 11 items in Suunjapbang, and 14 items in Gyemiseo. In conclusion, the most important fermented soybean pastes during the first half of the Joseon Dynasty were those used to produce soy sauce-like seasoning for the purpose of a-chieving a salty taste with Meju made of soybeans as the main ingredient. The manufacturing techniques for such traditional fermented soybean pastes have been passed down through history to the present era.

식품발효용으로 사용하는 미생물은 오랜 기간의 사용이력에 근거하여 안전성에 대한 의문이 제기되지 않고 사용되어 왔다. 한편, 가공식품산업의 발달로 국제적인 식품 거래가 활발해지면서 수입국의 소비자와 정부당국은 식품에 첨가하는 미생물의 안전에 대해서 더욱 민감하게 반응하고 있다. 현재, 식품에 첨가하는 미생물에 대한 안전성 평가기준은 미국 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)가 사용하고 있는 Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)와 유럽연합 European Food Safety Agency (EFSA)의 Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS)가 대표적으로 적용되고 있다. GRAS는 식품에 첨가하는 미생물 자체에 대한 안전성이 아닌 특정용도에서의 첨가에 따른 안전성을 의미하고, QPS는 식품에 첨가 가능한 미생물 단위(분류학적 단위, taxonomic unit)에 대한 안전성 평가이다. 우리나라에서는 전통발효식품의 상업적 생산이 증가하면서 종균 적용이 추진되고 있지만, 식품발효용종균에 대한 안전성 기준규격 없어 안전성 평가 없이 기능성만으로 종균 개발이 진행되고 있다. 전통발효식품의 세계화를 위해서는 향후 적용될 종균에 대한 기능적 측면뿐만 아니라 안전성의 확보가 필요하고, 식품용 미생물에 대한 안전성 평가 기준의 마련이 필요한 시점에 도달해 있다.

본 연구에서는 조선시대 농경중심의 유교문화사회에서 양반과 서민층에서 오랫동안 즐겨 마셨던 황금주를 고문헌(산가요록)에 기록된 방법으로 복원하여 이들의 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 이양주인 황금주 술덧의 pH는 점진적으로 낮아(pH 4.23 ${\rightarrow}$ 3.96)졌으며, 환원당 함량은 발효 4일 이후 큰 폭으로 감소하였고 알코올은 발효 4일째 급격히 생성되어 발효 7일째 15.8%로 증가하였다. 황금주의 주요한 유기산은 lactic acid이고 malic, succinic, citric 및 acetic acid 순으로 나타났다. 유리아미노산을 분석한 결과, alanine, arginine, asparagine, glutamic acid 및 leucine 함량은 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 색도, 탁도, 향미 등의 관능평가에서도 높은 점수를 받았다. 이러한 결과로 보아, 오랫동안 가양주로서 맥을 이어져 왔던 황금주가 일제 강점기를 통해 사라졌으나 최근, 전통주 복원 사업을 통해 현대인에게도 관능특성이 좋은 것으로 나타나 산업화 가능성이 높은 약주로 여겨진다.
