The text of 'Jeungbosallimgyeongjae' was reviewed to study the manufacture of vinegar and to investigate the changes made to the manufacturing process over time, other works such as 'Eumsigdimibang(1670s)', 'Sallimgyeongjae(1715)', 'Gyuhapchongseo(1815)', 'Juchan(1800년대경)' and 'Chosun-mussangsinsikyorijaebeop(1930)', 'Chosun-eumsikmandeneubeop(1946)' were compared. In both 'Eumsigdimibang', and 'Sallimgyeongjae' there are only three statements on vinegar manufacturing theory. For 'Sallimgyeongjae' these statesments are recorded specifically in the 'Chison' section. This book contains the following topics: the proper number of days for vinegar fermentation vinegar storage theory, how to maintain the vinegar in the pot, and nine vinegar manufacturing theories. 'Gyuhapchongseo' discusses the proper or improper number of days to ferment vinegar, and offers four general theories on vinegar manufacture. 'Ju-Chan' is a book of recipes from the latter era of the Chosun Dynasty. There are three statesments on 'yangchobang' recorded in this book. 'Chosun-mussangsinsikyorijaebeop' contains a general summary on vinegar that includes the theory of vinegar production, the right number of days for fermenting vinegar, clues for maintaining the vinegar in the pot, the method for making vinegar from spoiled alcohol, and finally, how to keep vinegar from molding The book also includes 11 statesments on the theory of vinegar manufacture. In 'Chosun-eumsikmandeneubeop', there are two statesments on vinegar manufacturing theory recorded. To study the use of vinegar in cooking as well as the change in manufacturing theories over time, we selected 'Eumsigdimibang', 'Sallimgyeongjae', 'Gyuhapchongseo', 'Chosun-mussangsinsikyorijaebeop' for a comparative analysis with the book 'Jeungbosallimgyeongje'. From this comparison of the texts we were able to learn the scientific nature of traditional foods. In addition, current vinegar manufacturing practices are changing the originally enjoyed flavors ghat are found with traditional vinegars. By the investigation of historic recipe book 'Ju-Chan,' and given the regular use of vinegar on cooking, we have found the means to reproduce the relished tastes of the past.

Development of synthetic vinegar has been focused on the acidic taste typically caused by acetic acid. Recently, consumer interest in fermented vinegars which contain a variety of valuable nutrients increased growth of the beverage industry. Vinegar beverages made of a variety of foreign fruits such as pineapple, grapefruit, and aloe are being commercialized to meet market needs from female consumers interested in beauty. However, commercialization of traditional fermented vinegars using regional products such as rice has not been successful yet compared to fruit vinegar beverages. Systematic research for development and commercialization of functional value-added traditional vinegars made of regional agricultural products should be performed. In this study, type and manufacturing methods of traditional vinegar were reviewed based on classic literatures.

Objective : Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen has been used by East Asian doctors who approved efficient clinical effects of it since the early stage of medical history. It is commonly used for lifestyle related diseases including stroke in recent days thanks to the increasing number of manufacturers. However, products from pharmaceutical companies as well as food companies are not classified as Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen but Bamboo vinegar. This study aims to discern disparate manufacturing process. Methods : In this study, original texts were searched to corroborate the correct method to produce Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen. It is essential to inspect the original texts thoroughly in the course of modernizing traditional knowledge. Result : Discrimination between the two substances starts from manufacturing process; Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen is made under the temperature of less then $170^{\circ}C$, containing mild fragrance and sweet taste, and the Bamboo vinegar over $170^{\circ}C$ upto $400^{\circ}C$, carrying strong smoky scent and acidness. Although some researches show conforming clinical actions of both products, still there is a possibility that closer clinical study would reveal their discrepancy. Conclusion : Current use of Bambusae vinegar needs speculation. Authenticity in proper manufacturing process can be attained through passed-on medical texts.

Until recently, various studies for the production of high-acidity vinegar have been conducted, but there have been few studies on the concentration process of vinegar. In this study, the possibility of introducing freeze-concentration method was investigated for the production of high-quality, high-acidity vinegar. Acidity, pH, specific gravity, and glucose concentration were measured for frozen concentrated vinegar fractions obtained by freezing and thawing three types of Rubus coreanus vinegar with different acidy (7.53, 5.43, and 3.72). Acidity, specific gravity, and glucose concentration were all highest when 15% of the original vinegar was thawed. pH was the lowest when 15% of the original vinegar was melted. As a result of the measurement of cumulative acidity, when 20% of the original vinegar was melted, it was the highest at 9.32, which was 3.89 higher than that of the original vinegar. In this study, it was confirmed that vinegar can be effectively concentrated using the freeze concentration method and at the same time, the thawing ratio can be controlled to effectively obtain vinegar with the desired acidity. However, it is considered that studies such as organic acid and amino acid analysis are needed to determine whether the freeze-concentration method is introduced into the high-acidity concentrated vinegar manufacturing process.

For the purpose of studying the possibility to use the barley as a raw material in vinegar manufacturing process, several factors related to the fermentation of acetic acid were investigated. The optimum quantity of sweet liquor prepared by koji method in medium was 30-40%. When koji of A. oryzae, commercial enzyme products and malt were used for the saccharification of the barley, the production rates of acetic acid during log period were 0.056%/hr, 0.025%/hr, 0.03896/hr and lag period were 22 hours, 48.5 hours and 25 hours, respectively. These results indicate that the saccharifying method using koji of A. oryzae is superior to that by the commercial enzyme products or malt for the acetic acid fementation. The optimum initial acidity was 2% and the proper initial ethanol degree were 4-6% in metium. In a submerged culture process using a jar fermentor, lag period was 15 hours, and acetic acid fermetation period was about 45 hours. In the sensory test of barley vinegar and commercial vinegar of the market, barley vinegar was superior to the vinegar in market with respect to tastes.

Objectives: Integrating retail and manufacturing enables limitless potential for food businesses, but also creates challenges for navigating within complex food safety regulations. From public health inspectors' (PHIs) perspective, this study aimed (1) to describe the characteristics of crossover businesses in Louisiana, and (2) to evaluate regulation awareness and food safety education needs for business owners and PHIs who inspect crossover businesses. Methods: A self-administered questionnaire was administered to Louisiana Department of Health PHIs using Qualtrics^®. A descriptive analysis was performed, focusing on the frequency of each item. Results: In total, 1774 retailers were conducting or planned to conduct specialized processes, while 552 food manufacturers were performing or planned to perform retail functions. Reduced oxygen packaging, the use of additives such as vinegar as a method of preservation, and smoking food as a method of preservation were observed by 62%, 36%, and 35% of the PHIs, respectively. The PHIs perceived crossover businesses as "not aware" or "somewhat aware" of the food safety regulations. The current food safety training level for these businesses was reported to range from "no training" to "some training but not sufficient." When asked for a self-assessment, the majority of PHIs reported themselves as being "familiar" with the variance requirement for specialized processing. Their confidence in inspecting crossover businesses, however, leaned towards "not confident" or "somewhat confident." Conclusions: To better guard public health, food safety training is needed for crossover food business owners, as well as PHIs, on regulations and conducting or inspecting specialized processes.

Verdigris is a traditional artificial pigment reported on old research papers and according to the methods mentioned in the literature, it is manufactured by the corrosion of copper or copper alloys using vinegar and by further scraping the generated rust. Since the Three Kingdoms Period, various household products with copper alloys, such as bronze and brass, have been used, and pigment analysis of these cultural heritage items has revealed the presence of tin, zinc, lead, and copper in green pigments. Based on these data, five types of verdigris were prepared from copper and copper alloys, and analyzed. the analysis results revealed a bluish green pigmentation, and the chromaticity, particle shape, and oil absorption quantity of each verdigris differed based on the type of copper alloy used in its preparation. The main components of verdigris are Cu, Sn, Zn and Pb, and their proportions depended on the type of copper alloy used during manufacturing. However, the main constituent mineral of the pigments is the same as 'hoganite[Cu(CH₃COO)₂·H₂O]', regardless of the copper alloy used. The result of accelerated weathering test for stability evaluation revealed that verdigris was discolored rapidly, thereby indicating that its stability was low, in particular, the pigments comprising lead presented relatively lower stability.

In this study we investigated the possibility of preparing brewed brown rice makgeolli, a traditional Korean rice wine, under diverse conditions. For this purpose the physicochemical characteristics of makgeolli brewed at different temperatures, utilizing a variety of nuruks, the traditional Korean fermentation agent, were studied. The alcohol content was seen to be highest when brewing occurred at $30^{\circ}C$, with the nuruk TN producing 16.2%. At $20^{\circ}C$TN produced 14.1% alcohol content. The alcohol content was therefore higher, by about 2%, for $30^{\circ}C$ fermentations than $20^{\circ}C$ fermentations. Similarly, saccharifying activity was influenced by temperature and sugar content, with a higher activity seen at $30^{\circ}C$ than at $20^{\circ}C$. As the fermentations progressed acidification petered out, with titratable acidity being 0.50-0.67% in all end samples. On the Hunter L, a, b scale; the a value decreased slightly, while the b value increased steadily during the fermentation process. Measurements of total organic acids were highest at $30^{\circ}C$, with the nuruk AK, at about 550 mg%. The content of citric acid was the highest at $30^{\circ}C$, being 230-310 mg% in all samples. However, more lactic acid was detected at $20^{\circ}C$ than at $30^{\circ}C$. Total free amino acid was highest at $30^{\circ}C$, with TN at $8,605{\mu}g/ml$, AK at $6,083{\mu}g/ml$, and RJ at $2,381{\mu}g/ml$. Total free amino acid and essential amino acid was shown to be higher at $30^{\circ}C$ than at $20^{\circ}C$. The bioactive substance ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid was also higher at $30^{\circ}C$, with TN at $223{\mu}g/ml$. From all of these results, we surmise that brown rice makgeolli manufacturing conditions are optimal at $30^{\circ}C$ fermentation temperatures and using the nuruk TN for brewing vinegar. In addition, the nuruk used clearly affects the quality of brown rice makgeolli and an appropriate method to determine the best nuruk for various purposes should be pursued.
