The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of different storage periods of lactic acid bacteria (LAB)-fermented low moisture fresh rice straw silage. The low moisture fresh rice straw sample was inculcated with LAB and stored for different storage periods such as 45, 90, and 365 days, respectively. The low moisture fresh rice straw (LMFRS) silage inoculated with LAB exhibited reduction in pH throughout the fermentation as compared with the control (P<0.05). The lactic acid content was increased at the late fermentation period (90 and 365 days, respectively) in LAB inoculated LMFRS silage as compared with the control (P<0.05). In contrast, the acetic acid and butyric acid concentrations were slightly reduced in the LAB inoculated LMFRS silage sample at 90 and 365 days fermentation, respectively. Meanwhile, the non-inoculated LMFRS silage showed higher amounts of acetic acid and butyric acid at an extended fermentation with low bacterial population as compared with the LAB inoculated LMFRS silage. However, lactic acid concentration was slightly high in the non-inoculated LMFRS silage at early 45 days fermentation. Additionally, the nutrient profile such as crude protein (CP), acid detergent fibre (ADF), neutral detergent fibre (NDF), and total digestibility nutrients (TDN) were not significantly different in control and LAB inculcated samples during all fermentation. Though, the microbial population was greater in the LAB inoculated LMFRS silage as compared with the control. However, the massive population was noted in the LAB inoculated LMFRS silage during all fermentation. It indicates that the inoculated LAB is the main reason for increasing fermentation quality in the sample through pH reduction by organic acids production. Overall results suggest that the LAB inoculums are the effective strain that could be a suitable for LMFRS silage fermentation at prolonged days.

This study investigated the effect of $2\%$ addition of pectin and alginate on the Physicochemical and retrogradation Properties of Jeungpyun, a Korean traditional fermented rice cake. The volume of batters with alginate and Pectin was significantly larger than that of control. Jeungpyun samples with Pectin and alginate had a larger volume with uniform and smaller cell size. All samples showed largest foaming capability after second fermentation. Foaming capability of the control ($0\%$ addition of pectin and alginate) was significantly larger than that of the treated samples. The amount of reducing sugar tended to increase during fermentation but decreased after steaming, which was due to the increase in hydrolysis of starch. On the contrary, the content of free sugar was slightly decreased during fermentation but slightly increased after steaming. The control contained the largest amount of free sugar after steaming. The microstructure of starch particles after fermentation showed completely dispersed starch granules with air bubbles. After steaming, the structure was sponge-like in all samples. Samples with added alginate and pectin had significantly higher water binding capacity than those of the control. All samples showed noticeably increased solubility and swelling power at $70^{circ}C$ with the control being significantly lower than the treated samples. Retrogradation was measured with $\alpha$-amylase and the retrogradation process of the sample with added alginate and pectin proceeded slower than that of the control. The relative crystallinity was observed through X-ray diffraction method and samples with added alginate and pectin had smaller crystallinity and delayed retrogradation compared to the control. Thus, Jeungpyun with the addition of alginate and Pectin demonstrated improved functionality and dietary fiber addition effect. The storage period of was extended as the retrogradation rate was delayed by the addition of dietary fibers.

The physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics of red pimiento kakdugi (radish kimchi) during fermentation at 1$0^{\circ}C$ were compared with red pepper kakdugi (control). The fermentation patterns of two kakdugies were similar, although total acidity, reducing sugar content and lactobacilli number of the red pimiento kakdugi were somewhat higher than those of control. The hardness and fracturability of the radish cubes of kakdugi were not significantly different from those of red pepper kakdugi during fermentation. The Hunter color L, a and b values of both kakdugies increased gradually until the 10th day, and then decreased thereafter. The AST A value and redness of red pimiento kakdugi were consistently higher than those of control, which is consistent with the sensory results. While red pepper powder kakdugi contains high concentrations of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin, in pimiento kakdugi capsaicinoids were not detected by HPLC analysis. Also, capsainoids in red pepper kakdugi decreased gradually as fermentation proceeded. Sensory evaluation showed that the score of hot taste for red pimiento kakdugi was lower, compared with that of control (p < 0.05), whereas the score of over-all acceptability for red pimiento kakdugi was higher than that of control.

Helianthus tuberosus is a perennial plant in the genus, Asteraceae. Pork potato has various pharmacological functions such as improving constipation, preventing bowel disease, inhibiting colon cancer, reducing serum cholesterol, lowering blood lipids, and enhancing blood sugar. This study investigated the physicochemical properties of fermented milk by adding Helianthus tuberosus powder. During the fermentation process, the pH of the fermented milk with added Helianthus tuberosus was higher after 16 hours of fermentation. At 48 hours of fermentation, the pH decreased to 3.70, 3.65, 3.63, and 3.59 with 0% (the control group), 1%, 3%, and 5% Helianthus tuberosus added, respectively. In the last 48 hours of fermentation, the acidity increased to 2.35%, 2.57%, and 3.17% with 0% (the control group), 1%, 3%, and 5% Helianthus tuberosus added, respectively. The number of lactic acid bacteria increased as the quantity of Helianthus tuberosus added increased. The highest number of lactic acid bacteria was 9.96 log CFU/g after 16 hours of fermentation with a 5% addition of Helianthus tuberosus . After 48 hours of fermentation, the amount of lactic acid bacteria decreased to 7.84 log CFU/g and 7.88 log CFU/g in the control group and the 1% added Helianthus tuberosus group, respectively. The addition of 3% and 5% Helianthus tuberosus increased the lactic acid bacteria count to 9.48 log CFU/ g and 9.81 log CFU/g, respectively. As the fermentation time increased, oxalic acid and tartaric acid decreased but lactic acid increased. Lactose degraded galactose and glucose over time. After 48 hours of fermentation, the viscosity in the control, 1%, 3%, 5% added Helianthus tuberosus groups increased to 1,006 cP, 1,026 cP, 1,040 cP, and 1,106 cP, respectively. The antioxidant effect was higher in the 5% added Helianthus tuberosus group (84.14%) than in the control group (80.39%) at 48 hours of fermentation. The concentration of polyphenol was 1.6 mg/g and antimicrobial activity was strong against E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus.

To investigate the effects of Pichia anomala SKM-T and Galactomyces geotrichum SJM-59 on Baechu kimchi fermentation, lyophilized yeasts were added to Baechu kimchi and co-cultured at room temperature ($20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) for 7 days. Desirable pH and acidity levels appeared by 3 days of fermentation in both the control culture and that with added G. geotrichum SJM-59. Furthermore, the culture with G. geotrichum SJM-59 sustained a desirable pH and acidity level until 5 days of co-culture. The pH of the culture with P. anomala SKM-T decreased slowly and was significantly higher than that of control throughout the experimental period. As fermentation time increased, the acidity of the culture with P. anomala SKM-T increased gradually. However, this culture maintained a desirable acidity level throughout the experiment. The number of lactic acid bacteria in the culture with P. anomala SKM-T was higher than in the culture with G. geotrichum SJM-59, or the control culture, throughout the experiment. The highest LA/TM ratio appeared after 3 nays of fermentation in the control culture, and on the 5 day of the yeasts added co-cultures. On sensory evaluation, no differences were detected between control and the culture with G. geotrichum SJM-59 arter 3 days of fermentation. The co-cultures with yeasts received high marks in umami taste. The co-culture with P. anomala SKM-T showed better texture properties than did the control culture. It was considered that fermentation times were delayed by addition of G. geotrichum SJM-59 or P. anomala SKM-T to Baechu kimchi fermentation.

This study was undertaken to examine the effect of salting in 10% salt solution added 2% calcium chloride on the kimchi fermentation. The addition of calcium chloride extended edible periods of the Kimchi to 4~5 days and increased relatively the hardness of Chinese Cabbage. In the addition of calcium chloride, the activities of amylase and $\beta$ -galactosidase were not high during all periods fermentation. Polygalacturonase and protease activities were low 2~21%, 2~26% all periods fermentation, respectively. There were significant correlations between the delay of ripeness and decreasing enzyme activation. The amount of free amino acid by the treatment with calcium chloride was decreased of 10~16% at the late of fermentation than that of control. the treatment with calcium chloride of the Kimchi was increased hardness, but decreased cohesiveness and gumminess was during all periods fermentation. the adhesiveness was increased at the early of fermentation but decreased at the late of fermentation.

This study was conducted to investigate the isoflavone contents including daidzein and genistein in soy sauces made with whole grain soybean Meju(WGSM), comparing with defatted Meju(DM) du.ins fermentation. Total isoflavone contents in 2 soy sauces made with DM, Control and product A, increased with period of fermentation and were 15 and 4.3 times higher after 180 days of fermentation than on the day before fermentation respectively. Meanwhile, 2 soy sauces made with WGSM, product B and C, had the highest amounts with $20.53{\mu}g/g\;and\;19.52{\mu}g/g$ of isoflavones on the day before fermentation respectively, and then decreased with fermentation time. High amounts of isoflavones were detected in 20 days of fermentation of soy sauce which made with WGSM and wheat Meju(product D). Daidzein was the largest amounts in isoflavone contents, regardless of total or free isoflavone types. The level of daidzein increased with fermentation time in 2 soy sauces made with DM, Control and product A, whereas 2 soy sauces made with WGSM, product B and C decreased with fermentation time, instead of increasing of genistein contents.

To examine the inhibitory effect of nisin on Kimchi, comparison of the fermentation pattern was studied between the Kimchi added nisin (100 WIg) and the control Kimchi at 15cC. The Kimchi added nisin was showed pH 4.03 at 7 days fermentation, on the other hand the control Kimchi showing pH 4.04 at 5 days. And total acidity (lactic acid%) showed 0.47,0.69,0.88 at 5,9, 14 days fermentation compared with the control Kimchi showing 0.57,0.93, 1.13 respectively. Maximum growth of lactic acid bacteria on the control Kimchi indicated 1.8, 1.6 x 108 CFU/ml at 7 days but on presence of nisin indicated 9.5,6.4 x 107 CFU/ml at 5 days. In conclusion, nisin showed inhibitory action to Kimchi fermentation from pH, total activity and lactic acid bacteria count results.

Quality changes of kimchi added with 10 or 20% Prunus mume liqueur byproduct (PLB), obtained after producing Prunus mume liqueur. during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$ for 25 days were investigated. The pH and titrtable acidity in 20% PLB added kimchi were changed more gradually during fermentation for 25 days compared to control. Total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria counts in kimchi added with 20% PLB were lower than those of control during fermentation for 15 days. Kimchi fermentation was delayed about 10 days with 20% PLB. L and a values of kimchi added with PLB decreased but b value increased with increasing the concentration of PLB. In the sensory evaluation of kimchi fermented for 10 days, the texture score of PLB added kimchi was higher than that of control, and increased with increasing the concentration of PLB. There were no significant differences (p < 0.05) in overall acceptability among control kimchi and PLB added kimchi.

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-producing bacteria (GPB) on in vitro rumen fermentation and on the growth performance and meat quality of Hanwoo steers. Methods: The effects of GPB (Lactobacillus brevis YM 3-30)-produced and commercially available GABA were investigated using in vitro rumen fermentation. Using soybean meal as a substrate, either GPB-produced or commercially available GABA were added to the in vitro rumen fermentation bottles, as follows: control, no additive; T1, 2 g/L GPB; T2, 5 g/L GPB; T3, 2 g/L autoclaved GPB; T4, 5 g/L autoclaved GPB; T5, 2 g/L GABA; and T6, 5 g/L GABA. In addition, 27 Hanwoo steers (602.06±10.13 kg) were subjected to a 129-day feeding trial, during which they were fed daily with a commercially available total mixed ration that was supplemented with different amounts of GPB-produced GABA (control, no additive; T1, 2 g/L GPB; T2, 5 g/L GPB). The degree of marbling was assessed using the nine-point beef marbling standard while endotoxin was analyzed using a Chromo-Limulus amebocyte lysate test. Results: In regard to in vitro rumen fermentation, the addition of GPB-produced GABA failed to significantly affect pH or total gas production but did increase the ammonia nitrogen (NH₃-N) concentration (p<0.05) and reduce total biogenic amines (p<0.05). Animals fed the GPB-produced GABA diet exhibited significantly lower levels of blood endotoxins than control animals and yielded comparable average daily gain, feed conversion ratio, and beef marbling scores. Conclusion: The addition of GPB improved in vitro fermentation by reducing biogenic amine production and by increasing both antioxidant activity and NH₃-N production. Moreover, it also reduced the blood endotoxin levels of Hanwoo steers.
