This study was carried out to investigate the effects and characteristics of sausages with red yeast rice added, particularly the Monascus purpureus KFRI 1134 strains, and to decide the optimal quantity of red yeast rice used. The additional rate of red yeast rice which has been used as a material for reducing nitrite, a coupler in meat products were 0, 1, 3, and 5% (w/w). In terms of the effects of the red yeast rice on the color, texture properties, and sensory characteristics of the sausages, the optimal temperature at which color stability was shown was below $100^{\circ}C$, and the addition of 1% red yeast rice resulted in a distinctly attractive color and increasingly improved the red color in the UV-visual Spectrophotometer analysis. However, the addition of over 1% (w/w) resulted in an unattractive color. The red colors also had strong heat stability. The texture properties and taste of the sausages were not affected by the red yeast rice.

Ethyl caproate is one of the important flavor compounds produced during the brewing of rice wine. The rice wine yeast and koji were reported to produce the esterases which synthesize and also hydrolyze ethyl caproate. From the results of monitoring the esterase activities of rice wine yeast and koji, their roles for producing ethyl caproate during brewing were postulated. In case of rice wine yeast, the production of esterase synthesizing ethyl caproate was influenced by the substrate, caproate but that of esterase hydrolyzing ethyl caproate was promoted by ethyl caproate but inhibited by caproate. The production of esterases of koji were not influenced by the substrates for ethyl caproate production but influenced by the growth of koji. The maximum concentration of ethyl caproate produced by rice wine yeast was 0.4 ppm in this research but the production of ethyl caproate by koji was not detected under our experimental conditions. Considering the results of this research, ethyl caproate is not produced by the esterases of koji during brewing but produced by the esterases of rice wine yeast. The growth of rice wine yeast represses that of koji because of the high concentration of ethanol produced by rice wine yeast. The esterases of rice wine yeast may decide the production of ethyl caproate during brewing.

We evaluated a more practical and cost-effective immobilization carriers for ethanol production using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Three candidate materials-rice hull, rice straw, and sawdust-were tested for their cell-adsorption capacity and operational durability. Derivatizations of rice hull, rice straw, and sawdust with the optimal concentration of 0.5 M of 2-(diethylamino)ethyl chloride hydrochloride (DEAE HCl) resulted in > 95% adsorption of the initial yeast cells at 2 hr for DEAE-rice hull and DEAE-sawdust and in only approximately 80% adsorption for DEAE-rice straw. In addition, DEAE-sawdust was found to be a more practical carrier for immobilizing yeast cells in terms of operational durability in shaking flask cultures with two different speeds of 60 and 150 rpm. Furthermore, the biosorption isotherms of DEAE-rice hull, -rice straw, and -sawdust for yeast cells revealed that the $Q_{max}$ of DEAE-sawdust (82.6 mg/g) was greater than that of DEAE-rice hull and DEAE-rice straw. During the 404-hr of continuous column reactor operation using yeast cells immobilized on DEAE-sawdust, no serious detachment of the yeast cells from the DEAE-sawdust was recorded. Ethanol yield of approximately 3.04 g/L was produced steadily, and glucose was completely converted to ethanol at a yield of 0.375 g-ethanol/g-glucose (73.4% of the theoretical value). Thus, sawdust is a promising practical immobilization carrier for ethanol production, with significance in the production of bioethanol as a biofuel.

The physicochemical and sensory characteristics of rice wine, Yakju, made with different additions of red yeast rice (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%) were investigated. The pH of the rice wine decreased and the total acidity increased with greater additions of red yeast rice. Furthermore, the total sugar content increased and the alcohol content decreased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice. The color L-value diminished and the color a- and b-values increased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice. Among the volatile flavor compounds, esters, aldehydes, alcohols, and acids were the most important aroma-active compounds identified in the rice wine. The sample with the 10% red yeast rice addition had the highest ester content, which is a primary component in fruit fragrance. The highest overall acceptability values in the sensory test for color, flavor, taste, and overall favorite were 5.10, 5.75, 5.15, 4.65, and 4.50, respectively, with the addition of 10% red yeast rice.

The effects of red yeast rice powder on physicochemical properties of chicken thigh meat sausage were investigated. Control sausages were prepared with 1.2% NPS (nitrite pickling salt). Others samples were prepared with 1%, 2%, and 3% red yeast rice powder and 1.2% NaCl. With increasing red yeast rice powder content, the pH of uncooked and cooked samples generally decreased. In addition, lightness, and yellowness decreased with increasing content of red yeast powder (P<0.05), whilst redness increased with increasing content of red yeast powder in sausage samples (P<0.05). In addition, the samples with red rice powder showed more than 3 times higher redness compared to samples with 1.2% NPS, regardless of addition level. No significant difference in cooking yield among the treatments. The hardness of samples increased with increasing red yeast rice powder content, while the cohesiveness of samples containing red yeast rice powder was less than those observed for the control. Consequently, red yeast rice powder can be used to improve redness in sausages without adverse effect on cooking yield.

This paper investigated the effects of the percentages of yeast and fermentation time as well as the top and bottom temperature of oven on the baking properties of rice bread. The specific volume of the dough decreased as the amount of added yeast and fermentation time increased. When 1.5% yeast was added at 60 min of fermentation time, the shape of the rice bread showed the largest volume, high appearance and a round shape. The top and bottom temperature of the oven on the baking characteristics of rice bread were affected by the baking time. When the top and bottom temperature of the oven at 200 and $140^{\circ}C$, and 200 and $170^{\circ}C$, the baking time was 20 min. When the top and bottom temperature of oven at 140 and $170^{\circ}C$, the baking time was 40 min. When the top and bottom temperature of the oven were 170 and $170^{\circ}C$, the shape of the rice bread indicated the largest volume, high appearance and a round shape. The results of this study revealed that the replacement of rice flour with 1.5% yeast, 60 min of fermentation time, and the top and bottom temperature of oven at $170-170^{\circ}C$ are effective for rice bread.

This study investigates the quality characteristics of Sikhye, a Korean traditional drink, made with different amounts of Monascus anka rice, or red yeast rice, and the results are as follows. During the saccharification process of red yeast rice, there was not significant change in pH, and its sugar content increased. It revealed that the optimal hours of saccharification for making Sikhye were four or five hours, which showed the highest in $^{\circ}Brix$. PH decreased significantly with increasing amounts of red yeast rice, and there was no change in sugar content and reducing sugar. Chromaticity L values decreased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice, and a value, b value and the turbidity increased. DPPH free radical scavenging activity of the samples showed significant differences in the samples with high scores as the amounts of red yeast rice increased. As a result of measuring the total microorganism number of the sample stored at $4^{\circ}C$, storability was improved with increasing amounts of red yeast rice. Preference was high in the order of 40%, 50%, 30%, 20%, 0%, and 10%, and the optimal amount of red yeast rice was less than 40-50%. Adding red yeast rice showed high scores in the sensory test, showing red color in Sikhye. In addition, its antioxidative activity effect and microbial growth inhibitory activity were considered to improve storability and preference.
