In this study, the characteristics of alcohol fermentation using Elaeagnus multiflora juice were studied under static fermentation condition in an effort to develop new types of functional wine. After 9 days of fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$, the pH, soluble solids, reducing sugar, viable cell numbers, and alcohol contents were shown to be 3.32~3.33, $7.8{\sim}9.0^{\circ}C$, 29.84~31.05 g/L, 7.26~8.73 cfu/mL, and 11.0%, respectively. The heat treated juice exhibited significantly higher antioxidant activity than untreated juice while the soluble phenolic and flavonoid contents became higher. Also, the fermented wine after the heat treated at $120^{\circ}C$ for 30 min contained free sugar such as fructose (0.42 g/L) and glucose (0.09 g/L), major organic acids such as lactic acid (7.32 g/L), malic acid (2.59 g/L), succinic acid (2.16 g/L), and oxalic acid (3.08 g/L), and major flavanols and phenolic acids such as catechin (99.45 mg/L), epicatechin (264.55 mg/L), epigallocatechin (82.19 mg/L), gallic acid (6.44 mg/L), and salicylic acid (60.53 mg/L). In addition, DPPH radical and ABTS radical scavenging activities and FRAP assay results were 70.47%,, 65.93%, and 1.254, respectively. These results suggest that it is possible to produced a new type of wine using Elaeagnus multiflora fruits.

Various varieties of mulberry fruit and wines were investigated to determine their chemical properties and fermentation characteristics. Mulberry wines were manufactured with 'Cheongnosang', 'Cheonhyunosang', 'Deokcheonsang', 'Hwachosipmunja', 'Hwanyoupdaeyoup', 'Jasan', 'Mansaengbaeckpinosang', 'Palcheongsipyung', 'Sabangso' and 'Susungppong'. The factors for wine fermentation and quality such as soluble solids, polyphenol and organic acids were analyzed. The contents of soluble solid, reducing sugar and polyphenol, which were affected significantly by each other, were higher for 'Hwanyoupdaeyoup', 'Jasan' and 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry than other varieties. Organic acids such as citric, malic, succinic and acetic acid were detected in the mulberry fruits. 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry fruit had a higher content of souble solids $(14.6^{\circ}Brix)$ and polyphenol compounds (2.15 mg/ml). After fermentation, 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry wine showed the lowest acetic acid in 3.23 mg/ml and the highest citric acid in 12.3 mg/ml. From these results, 'Palcheongsipyung' mulberry fruit was the most suitable for the fermentation of mulberry wine.

We produced the apple vinegar with only apple fruits, no adding sugar and others through two stages fermentation(alcohol fermentation and acetic acid fermentation). At the first stage, apple wine contained 5% alcohol was produced at the 5th day. And through the second stage, acetic acid fer mentation, apple vinegars of which total acidity is 5.88% were produced. In comparision with com mercial vinegars for physicochemical quality, it was the lowest in total acidity. But contents of oxalic, tartaric, malic, citric, succinic acid in it were higher than other vinegars. Especially the content of malic acid in it was higher 5 times than other vinegars. Malic acid was known that it was abundant in apple fruits. Also the contents of free amino acids were distinctly high such as 21.97mg% in two stages fermented apple vingars. Potassium content in it was higher 4 times than other vinegars. So it was supposed that two stages fermented vinegar had much higher quality than commercial vinegars.

Samil-ju, the traditional Korean rice wine was brewed and distilled using different columns (unpacked and packed) at different pressure (760, 460, 260 mmHg). Fractions of distillate were collected and analyzed. The sample wine, Samil-ju showed the following compositions; ethanol 14%, total acidity 16.2 g/100 ml, reducing sugar 7.9 mg/ml, total sugar 8.4 mg/ml, acetaldehyde 6 ppm, fusel oil acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate 6 ppm. As distillation proceeds, contents of ethanol, methanol, fusel oil, acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate were decreased but total acidity was increased. Generally at reduced pressure, all the constituents but total acidity showed more decrease than those at atmospheric pressure. In the 1st, 2nd and 3rd fractions of the distillate, ethanol contents were maintained at about 70% but those contents decreased abruptly to below 50% from the 5th fraction. Sixteen sensory characteristics were identified as quality factors of distillate. Among them, four characteristics were identified as aroma properties, seven as tastes and five as aftertastes. Nuruk and cooling flavor were considered as important factors which affect greatly the sensory quality of distillate. Among various fractions, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th fractions obtained from unpacked column at 260 mmHg showed the highest score in the overall quality. The compositions of these fractions were ranged as follows; methanol $24{\sim}36\;ppm$, total acidity $0.21{\sim}0.29\;g/100\;ml$, fusel oil 657-1340 ppm, acetaldehyde $12{\sim}41\;ppm$, and ethylacetate $22{\sim}311\;ppm$, respectively.

In this study, the brewing and quality characteristics of a variety of honey and yeast strains in Korea were investigated. After fermenting acacia honey, chestnut honey, citrus honey, and mixed flower honey using commercial yeast, the quality changes during fermentation were investigated. Chestnut honey wine (mead) and mixed flower mead showed the highest ethanol contents of 11.9 and 11.3%, respectively after fermenting for 8 days at $25^{\circ}C$. Acacia mead and citron (Chinese lemon) mead showed 5.0 and 8.2% ethanol contents, respectively. Mixed mead, which fermented with acacia honey and mixed flower honey, in order to advance sensory properties, showed the best sensory properties, generating 10.9% ethanol, while another product with citron honey and mixed flower honey generated 11.1% of ethanol but with a lower sensory value. When adding corium peels to the mixed mead of acacia honey and mixed flower honey, the ethanol content was not increased by addition of corium peels into mixed mead, but its total acceptability was increased by addition of 2% corium peels. To check the mead clarification, it was treated with 0.6% of bentonite and filtered; then, its turbidity was observed over a storage period. The safe result for precipitation was shown at the condition of storing at $10^{\circ}C$ for 15 days with 0.24 NTU (Nepthelometric Turbidity Unit).

This study was carried out to compare the physicochemical characteristics of Korean traditional wine fermented from foxtail millet and nuruk at different mixing rates. The alcohol contents of fermented wine ranged from 12.70 to 13.38%. Two kinds of commercial nuruks, SH and BS nuruk, were used. The brix degrees of foxtail millet wine fermented by SH and BS nuruks were 21.6 and $22.4^{\circ}Bx$, respectively. The pH, total acidity, and turbidity of the wines fermented by SH and BS nuruks were 3.74 and 3.40, 1.40 and 1.51%, and 0.441 and 0.149, respectively. With an increase in the amount of foxtail millet, brix degree, pH, turbidity, b-value and L-value decreased, and total acidity and a-value increased. Total color difference (${\Delta}Eab$) parameter of the wine fermented by SH nuruk were 8.58, 22.59 and 22.55, while those by BS nuruk were 0.35, 4.08 and 7.16 in 30, 70 and 100% addition rates of foxtail millet, respectively. With an increase in the amount added of foxtail millet, glucose content decreased. The organic acids such as lactic acid and acetic acid were predominantly detected in the fermented wine. Finally, based on sensory evaluations, the wine fermented by BS nuruk showed the best overall quality at the 30% addition rate of foxtail millet.

Effects of Takju(Korean turbid rice wine) lees on noodle investigated by substituting Takju lees water extract powder for each 2% and 4% wheat flour in sample II and III, respectively. The lightness(L) of uncooked noodles was decreased, whereas that of cooked noodles was increased with increasing amount of extract added. Redness(a) and difference of total color(${\Delta}$E) were significantly increased according to the amount of extract added in uncooked and cooked noodles. Yellowness(b) of the noodles containing 2% Takju lees water extract powder was exhibited lowest values in uncooked and cooked noodles. In cooking property of noodles, turbidity of soup decreased in proportion to amount of extract added, 2% and 4% in sample II and III, respectively whereas the weight and volume of noodles were not significant than those of control. Tension of cooked noodle was highest in sample II and lowest in sample III. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodle showed an significant increase of hardness in addition of Takju lees water extract powder but not significant different in springiness, chewiness, adhesiveness. Cohesiveness was significantly lowest in sample II. The sensory evaluation showed that significant difference between noodles with 2% addition groups and control was not recognized but was recognized 4%. Therefore, based on cooking properties and sensory evaluation, Takiu lees water extract powder up to 4% could be substituted for wheat flour.

100 different yeast colonies were isolated from spontaneously fermented kiwis, persimmons, apples, pears, watermelons, grapes, grape fruits, peachs, and plums, and selected yeast strains were used to produce kiwi-persimmon mixed wine (KPMW). Among the isolates, five representative strains exhibited tolerance to sucrose, alcohol, pH, and potassium metabisulfite when compared with the control yeast strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCCM 12615). All five yeast strains (Y4, Y10, Y28, Y78, and Y81) exhibited 99% 26S rDNA sequence similarity to S. cerevisiae. The pH, acidity, Brix, reducing sugar, alcohol, and organic acid contents were consistent in KPMW prepared from the S. cerevisiae KCCM 12615 and Y28 strains. KPMW made from the Y4, Y10, and Y28 strains exhibited lower quantities of free sugars than those of the KPMW made from the other yeast strains. The level of ethyl esters in KPMW prepared from the Y28 was higher than that in the other KPMWs. All strains, except for Y28, produced lower concentrations of sulfur and ketone compounds. Furthermore, the KPMW produced by the Y28 strains had total phenolic contents with 1.1 g/L, with DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of 57.06% and 55.62%, respectively, and a FRAP assay value of 0.72. Our results suggest that Y28 is a promising yeast strain for producing high-quality wines.
