In this study, the physicochemical characteristics of rice sourdough fermented with Omija extract were investigated. Rice sourdough was made with a 3 stage fermentation process. pH & total titratable acidity, numbers of yeast and lactic acid bacteria, and dough expansion rate were measured. In addition, an RVA was employed to study the pasting properties of rice sourdough. There was a significant (p<0.05) change in both the pH of rice sourdough, which decreased from 5.08 to 3.98, and total titratable acidity, which increased from 0.20 to 0.57 (0.1N NaOH mL), as fermentation time increased. The amount of yeast and lactic acid bacteria significantly increased from 6.73 to 7.65 log CFU/g, 6.93 to 7.65 log CFU/g, respectively(p<0.05). The expansion rate of rice sourdough fermented with Omija extract was higher than rice sourdough fermented without Omija extract. The initial pasting temperatures of rice sourdough fermented with Omija extract were decreased from $91.3^{\circ}C$ to 85.6. The final viscosity and setbacks decreased as fermentation time increased. These results suggest that Omija extract has a beneficial effect on increasing the expansion rate of rice sourdough as a substitute for wheat flour.

Our aim was to determine the effects of a citrus by-product (CBP) and CBP fermented by Lactobacillus plantarum (LP-CBP), provided as dietary supplements, on the growth performance, feed utilization, innate immunity and temperature tolerance of red seabream. A diet without inclusion of CBP or LP-CBP was used as a control and four other experimental diets were formulated to replace wheat flour by 4% and 8% of either CBP or LP-CBP (designated as Con, LP-CBP4%, LP-CBP8%, CBP4% and CBP8%, respectively). Experimental diets were fed to triplicate groups of 25 fish (initial body weight, 55.0 g) for 9 weeks. Growth performance and feed utilization were not significantly different among all the groups. Bone collagen content was significantly increased by supplementation with CBP and LP-CBP. Vitamin C concentration tended to be higher in livers of fish fed the supplements than in the control group. Myeloperoxidase, lysozyme and superoxide dismutase activities were higher in fish fed CBP or LP-CBP than in fish fed the control diet. When fish were exposed to low water temperature, cumulative mortalities of those fed CBP or LP-CBP supplemented diets were lower (29%, 33%, 34% and 33% mortalities for LP-CBP4%, LP-CBP8%, CBP4% and CBP8%, respectively) than in the control group (58%). Therefore, inclusion of either CBP or LP-CBP at up to 8% in red seabream diet brings benefits through enhanced innate immunity and better tolerance of low water temperature.

Red ginseng (Panax ginseng), a Korean traditional medicinal plant, contains a variety of ginsenosides as major functional components. It is necessary to remove sugar moieties from the major ginsenosides, which have a lower absorption rate into the intestine, to obtain the aglycone form. To screen for microorganisms showing bioconversion activity for ginsenosides from red ginseng, 50 yeast strains were isolated from Korean traditional meju (a starter culture made with soybean and wheat flour for the fermentation of soybean paste). Twenty strains in which a black zone formed around the colony on esculin-yeast malt agar plates were screened first, and among them 5 strains having high ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity on p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside as a substrate were then selected. Strain JNO301 was finally chosen as a bioconverting strain in this study on the basis of its high bioconversion activity for red ginseng extract as determined by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analysis. The selected bioconversion strain was identified as Candida allociferrii JNO301 based on the nucleotide sequence analysis of the 18S rRNA gene. The optimum temperature and pH for the cell growth were $20{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ and pH 5~8, respectively. TLC analysis confirmed that C. allociferrii JNO301 converted ginsenoside Rb1 into Rd and then into F2, Rb2 into compound O, Rc into compound Mc1, and Rf into Rh1. Quantitative analysis using high-performance liquid chromatography showed that bioconversion of red ginseng extract resulted in an increase of 2.73, 3.32, 33.87, 16, and 5.48 fold in the concentration of Rd, F2, compound O, compound Mc1, and Rh1, respectively.

In this paper, we proposed a preparation of Jeung- pyun (Korean fermented steamed rice cake with sour taste and spongy texture) using fuzzy theory. Before this preparation was introduced, it thoroughly analyzed the existing data of Jeung-pyun preparation with sensory evaluation and instrumental measurement. It defined a membership auction of Fuzzy set by analyzed three sorts of data on Jeung-pyun. And it established the Fuzzy model using the quantity of materials as input, such as rice, flour, wheat flour and fermentation time, and the sensory test scores as output, such as grain, softness, sourness, chewiness, overall quality, pH value and volume, respectively. We got the results that the Fuzzy model was accord with the conventional method with sensory evaluation. And the validity of this method is shown through the computer simulation of the test data. Therefore, the proposed method by Fuzzy model will apply to make Jeung-pyun without sensory evaluation. This study will contribute to develop standard preparation for korean foods and expert system of preparation using computer system.

Waxy barley flour was fermented by two kinds of starter cultures; L. plantarum and L. brevis, alone or in combination and the effect was evaluated on waxy barley and wheat composite bread quality. In all three barley sourdoughs, fermentation decreased the pH, total sugar and reducing sugar, and increased lactic acid bacteria cell numbers. However yeasts (S. cerevisiae) were reduced. There was significant difference in physicochemical characteristics between the reference(composite barley dough containing improvement agent) and the barley sourdoughs (p <0.05). Barley sourdough fermented by L. plantarum showed more desirable farinogram properties of peak time, stability and elasticity than that of the reference. The rheofermentometer data for L. brevis produced the most $CO_2$ release curve, whereas L. plantarum held maximum $CO_2$ retention differed significantly from that of the breads made with barley sourdoughs fermented with the respectives starter cultures (p < 0.05). Barley sourdough bread fermented with L. plantarum resulted in better bread quality than the reference bread. The positive effect of fermentation with L. plantarum on bread quality was evident when comparing the well developed protein-starch matrix structure of the bread baked with barley sourdough with the reference bread.

The dough was frozen either before or after fermentation at the five different freezing and storage conditions. Although fermentation before freezing was effective for rapid freezing, it reduced bread volume of the dough frozen at both air freezer and liquid immersion freezer. Freezing at the air freezer set to $-70^{\circ}C$ took more time for freezing and resulted in lower bread volume than freezing at the immersion freezer set to $-20^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the freezing in the liquid immersion freezer was more effective to reduce the freezing time and increase the bread volume. At the liquid immersion freezer, the higher temperature was more effective than lower temperature. The doughs frozen in a liquid immersion freezer set to $-10^{\circ}C$ and fermented after de-frosting produced higher bread volume than control unfrozen dough. And also there was no significant difference in bread volume between the control unfrozen dough and the dough frozen in a liquid immersion freezer set to $-10^{\circ}C$, fermented before freezing and re-fermented after defrosting. The longer proof time and greater loaf volume obtained for the dough frozen and stored at the air freezer set to $-70^{\circ}C$. Therefore the optimum process for freezing the dough was freezing immediately after mixing, storing at $-10^{\circ}C$ in a liquid immersion freezer and fermented after defrosting.

TTo increase productivity of a strong extracellular alkaline protease (BCAP), stable strains of Bacillus clausii I-52 carrying another copy of BCAP gene in the chromosome were developed. Integrative vector, pHPS9-fuBCAP carrying BCAP promoter, ribosome binding site, signal sequence and active protease gene was constructed and transferred into B. clausii I-52, and integration of the constructed plasmid into chromosome was identified by PCR. An investigation was carried out on BCAP production by B. clausii I-52 and transformant C5 showing the highest relative activity of alkaline protease using submerged fermentation. Maximum enzyme activity was produced when cells were grown under the submerged fermentation conditions at $37^{\circ}C$ for 48 h with an aeration rate of 1 vvm and agitation rate of 650 rpm in a optimized medium (soybean meal 2%, wheat flour 1%, sodium citrate 0.5%, $K_2HPO_4$ 0.4%, $Na_2HPO_4$ 0.1%, NaCl 0.4%, $MgSO_47H_2O$ 0.01%, $FeSO_47H_2O$ 0.05%, liquid maltose 2.5%, $Na_2CO_3$ 0.6%). A protease yield of approximately 134,670U/ml was achieved using an optimized media, which show an increase of approximately 1.6-fold compared to that of non-transformant (83,960 U/ml). When the stability of transformant C5 was examined, the integrated plasmid pHPS9-fuBCAP was detected in the transformant after cultivation for 8 days, suggesting that it maintained stably in the chromosomal DNA of transformant C5.
