Characteristics on Enzyme and Microorganism by Soaking Time of Glutinious Rice

찹쌀의 수침 시간에 따른 수침액의 효소 및 미생물에 관한 특성

This study was attempted to simplify the complex steeping mechanism and propose the scientific approach of microorganism. As Enzyme activity showed that as steeping hours increase, the а-amylase activity increased. Most commonly microorganisms in steeping liquid were Corynebacter spp., Candida spp. and Lactobacillus spp. According to results, steeping acidifies the character of glutinous rice, affec-ting the starch's n-amylase and bring about component's changes. As Candide spp. and Lactobaillus spp. of the steeping liquid increase, the character of liquid is acidifying.
