In this experiment, citrus juice was fermented by Gluconacetobacter hansenii TF-2, an isolate from tea fungus to develop a new type of acidic beverage. The juice broth is made by fermenting of $11{\sim}17%$ (v/v) juice and sweetened with sucrose (initial sucrose $10^{\circ}Brix$). The fermentation by G. hansenii TF-2 was initiated by adding 5% (w/v) of seed gel (pellicle, tea fungus) which was previously cultured in the same medium (fresh juice broth) and the fermentation was carried out in a dark incubator at $28{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ for about 15 days. During the fermentation a pellicle grew on the surface of the fermenting fluid and acids were produced. Fermented fluid (beverage) was centrifuged at 7,000 rpm for 15 min for further analyses. The highest amount of the other metabolites including organic acids were observed in 5 to 10 days. Major acids were acetic acid (fermented citrus beverage, CB). After 15 days of fermentation, organic acid content such as acetic acid in fermented beverage was measured to be $183.5{\sim}186.6\;ppm$. Free sugars content in CB were 56.8%, 35.1%, 40.7% and 63.2% of unfermented sucrose, glucose, fructose and sorbitol, respectively. When the growth rate of inhibitory effect of the fermented beverage was measured by using several species of food-related bacteria, the beverage fermented with CB exhibited the strongest inhibition against gram-negative (E. coli and Sal. Typhimurium). Its inhibition rate was between $71.9{\sim}94.0%$ at CB. Fermented beverage has shown effectiveness for antimicrobial activity against some species of food-related bacteria.

Gluconacetobacter hansenii TF-2, an isolate from black tea fungus, was statically cultivated to ferment cellulose gel from citrus juice. The juice prepared by press filtering of peeled citrus fruit contained 135.5 mg of total sugar/mL, 1.23% of total acid, and average pH of the juice was 3.98. The bacterium produced cellulose gel optimally on the surface of culture broth containing 17% of citrus juice and 10$^{\circ}$Brix of total sugar. The optimum temperature was 3$0^{\circ}C$ for producing acetic acid and gel formation. The bacterium could not produce acetic acid on gel formation at 4$0^{\circ}C$. The optimum pH was 3.0∼4.0 but was not significantly different between pH 3.0∼4.0. The cultivation for 18 days under optimal conditions produced gel as 14.2$\pm$0.6 mm of thickness and acids equivalent to 1.90$\pm$0.22% of acetic acid. The pH of culture broth was stabilized at 2.6∼2.8 during the cultivation. Remaining sugar content was 27.1$\pm$4.2 mg/mL of total sugar and 6.9 mg/mL of reducing sugar. The gel productivity was 137.8$\pm$9.7 g/L.

This study, to enhance the sterilization, browning inhibition and precooling effect of electrolyzed oxidizing water(EOW) as cleaning water on food industry, was carried out to investigate the efficacy of electrolyzed oxidizing water(EOW) with 0.85% NaCl, 0.5% ethanol, polysorbate 80 of 1 ppm, 0.5% lemon juice and 0.5% citron juice. Escherichia coli KCTC 1039 with initial count of 5.63$\times$10$\^$8/ CFU/mL were reduced to <10$^1$CFU/mL after 15∼30 sec when it was treated by electrolyzed oxidizing water added with various food additives. Bacillus cereus KCTC 1012 were reduced to <10$^1$ CFU/mL after 2 minutes treatment with electrolyzed oxidizing water containing polysorbate 80 and ethanol. Iactobacillus plantarum KCTC 3108 were reduced to <10$^1$CFU/mL after 30 sec treatment with electrolyzed oxidizing water containing polysorbate 80, citron juice and lemon juice, respectively. Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora KCTC 2776 were reduced to <10$^1$CFU/mL after 30 sec treatment with electrolyzed oxidizing water containing polysorbate 80 and lemon juice. Browning inhibition effect was determined by comparison of polyphenol oxidase activity. Inhibition ratio of polyphenol oxidase was approximately 62∼84% in most treatments with the exception of 57% and 25% inhibition by 0.5% ascorbic acid and polysorbate 80, respectively. Sliced potato dipped in electrolyzed oxidizing water containing NaCl and citron juice for 30 minutes showed significantly low PPO activity, 64 units in treatment with NaCl and 91 units in treatment with citron juice. At the same time, changes in color value(△E) of sliced potato was below 3 in most treatments.

The chemical composition of the of grape juices produced in Korea in 1969 were analyzed and the amino acids and sugars in these juices were detected by means of paper partition chromatography. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Less sugar and amino-N and more acid were contained in Korean grape juices than those of foreign's, and tannin content was not so different as foreign's. 2. More sugar, amino-N and tannin and less acid were contained in the juices of Campbell Early obtained in Anyang district than in Taejon and Pohang districts. 3. Twenty-one amino acids detected in grape juices were distributed as following frequency. Aspartic acid, serine, glycine, asparagine, lysine, arginine, threonine, alanine ${\gamma}-amino$ butyric acid, valine, leucine, proline (in 11 varieties), glutamine, tyrosine(10), cystine(9), glutamic acid, Hydroxyproline(8), isoleucine(4), phenylalanine, unknown(3). 4. Alanine was mostly abundant in all varieties and ${\gamma}-amino$ butyric acid was next and the decreasing order were arginine, valine, leucine, proline, glutamine, threonine, etc. in the amount. 5. Number of amino acid detected in grape juices of each varieties were 20 sorts in Delaware(Anyang), 19 in Black Hamburg, and Schuyler, 18 in Campbell Early(three districts), Delaware(seedless, Taejon) and Alden, 17 in Niagara, 16 in Muscat Hamburg, and 15 in Golden Muscat. 6. Number of essential amino acids contained in Delaware(Anyang) and Black Hamburg were 6 sorts and in Campbell Early (Anyang), Niagara and Muscat Hamburg were 5 and in others 4. 7. The same number of amino acid were detected in the juices of Campbell Early obtained from three districts, but hydroxyproline was detected in that of Anyang only, while isoleucine was appeared in those of Taejon and Pohang. 8. Glucose, fructose were detected in all grape juices.

This study was evaluated that seasonal change of the hesperidin content was in relation to the skin color and weight of fruit in outer or inner side of the canopy, for determine the optimum time and the index of most abundant hesperidin content in lemon fruits juice. The hesperidin content was different with fruit growth and on fruit bearing site of the tree. The fruits of the either side contained the highest hesperidin value at 162 and 176 days after anthesis just after de-greening and the value was highest in the fruits of outer side of the canopy. This time also corresponded to the time just before the cessation of fruit growth. These results suggested that the optimum harvesting period for more hesperidin content was the stage just after de-greening and just before fruit growth cessation.

To develop a low-ethanol strawberry wine, the use of pectinase to improve the extraction yield of strawberry juice was investigated, and changes in physicochemical characteristics during ethanolic fermentation were assessed. The juice yield from strawberry fruit increased by 18.9% after Viscozyme L treatment (1,000 ppm, 30 min), compared with a control group, a greater increase than seen with other pectinases (17.5-18.7%). No significant quality differences were observed between control juice and juice prepared with enzyme treatment, indicating that neither physicochemical characteristics nor ethanol content during fermentation were affected by pectinase treatment. The major pigments of strawberry juice were cyanidin-3-glucoside and pelargonidin-3-glucoside, both of which are anthocyanins. The pigment level after enzyme treatment was slightly lower than that of the control group, at all fermentation times. We consider that the economics of strawberry wine manufacture may be increased by use of pectinase because juice level was increased, but no change in ethanol content or physicochemical characteristics was apparent.
