The ratio of rice added to meju dough (cooked and crushed soybean before fermentation) was 0, 0.2, and 0.4 based on dry weight. Free amino acids, minerals, polyphenol, and total phenolic compounds relatively decreased by addition of rice. However, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical (DPPH) scavenging and ferric ion reduction activity was not influenced. Organic acids, which are fermentation metabolites, significantly increased in proportion to percentage balance of rice. Seven and four volatile compounds (VCs) were detected in doenjang prepared without and with rice, respectively, and contents of VCs were significantly lower in the rice-supplemented doenjang. Bacterial community diversity was significantly increased by addition of rice to meju dough. Rice alters chemical composition, fermentation products, and bacterial diversity, but does not downgrade the nature of doenjang.展开更多

In chronological life span (CLS) tests on high-sugar fermentation, the survivals of the yeast cells grown with heated koji extracts were higher than non-heated koji extract. Heat treatment of the extracts by autoclaving led to a loss in most of amino acids due to the Maillard reaction, although histidine contents slightly increased. In glucose-arginine mixtures, arginine was partly converted to histidine by autoclaving and the addition of histidine prolonged the CLS of yeast cells. The yeast cells grown with the non-heated extracts were more resistant to oxidative stress whereas the antioxidant activities were lower than those of the heated extracts. The yeast cells grown with the heated extracts were more tolerant to ethanol and had a higher reduction capacity in the late stationary phase when the cells were incubated in the presence of ethanol. Maillard reaction products elevated the levels of reactive oxygen species to yeast cells grown under ethanol stress in the late stationary phase. These results suggest that thermally processed koji extracts can act as a protectant against ethanol stress during the late stationary phase of yeast growth and extend the CLS due to the increase of histidine contents by autoclaving.展开更多
