Abstract
The yeasts in the soy sauce mash were isolated and identified, and they were classified by coloring with the treatment of TTC(2, 3, 5, triphenyltetrazolium chloride) agar and counted in process of time. The results obtained were as follows: a) The number of ordinary and osmophilic yeasts in 1 ml. of the soy sauce mash showed a tendency to be increased from the mashing to the mature stages and to decrease in the aging stages: $127{\times}10^3$ immediately after mashing, $83{\times}10^3$ 1 month after, $356{\times}10^3$ 3 months after, $1250{\times}10^3$ 6 months after and $65{\times}10^3$ 2 years after mashing in the case of ordinary yeasts, and 0 after mashing, $40{\times}10^3$ 1 month after, $81{\times}10^3$ 3 months after, $358{\times}10^3$ 6 month after and $23{\times}10^3$ 2 years after mashing in the case of osmophilic yeasts. b) 50 strains of yeasts were isolated from the soy sauce mash optionally in process of fermentation period, and they were identified as 7 genera and 18 species: 10 strains of Saccharomyces rouxii, 1 strain of Saccharomyces marxianus, 3 strains of Saccharomyces rosei, 1 strain of Saccharomyces fermentati, 6 strains of Saccharomyces mellis, 1 strain of Saccharomyces acidifaciens, 1 strain of Saccharomyces pastori, 3 strains of Pichia polymorpha, 2 strains of Hansenula anomala, 1 strain of Hansenula saturnus, 2 strains of Hansenula suaveolens, 5 strains of Nadsonia fulvescens, 8 strains of Debaryomyces hasenii, 1 strain of Debaryomyces nicotianae, 1 strain of Debaryomyces kloeckeri, 2 strains of Torulopsis sake, 1 strain of Torulopsis holmii and 1 strain of Candida pelliculasa. c) Distribution of yeasts according to the fermentation period was as follows: i) Saccharomyces rouxii, Saccharomyces marxianus, Saccharoymces rosei, Pichia polymorpha, Debaryomyces hansenii, Torulopsis sake, Candida pelliculosa, Debaryomyces nicotianae, Nadsonia fulvescens, Hansenula suaveolens and Hansenula saturnus were found in the early stages of fermentation. ii) Saccharomyces rouxii, Saccharomyces rosei, Saccharomyces fermentati, Saccharomyces mellis, Saccharomyces pastori, Hansenula anomala, Saccharomyces acidifaciens and Debaryomyces hansenii appeared in the mature stages. iii) Saccharomyces rouxii, Saccharomyces mellis, Nadsonia fulvescenes, Dedaryomyces hansenii, Debaryomyces kloeckeri, Torulopsis sake and Torulopsis holmii were distributed in the aging stages. d) TTC white yeasts were found in abundance in the early stages of fermentation and TTC red yeasts appeared more than 50 per cent in the mature and aging stages. e) The yeasts belonging to Saccharomyces mellis and Saccharomyces pastori were classified as TTC red yeasts, Saccharomyces acidifaciens were reel pink, Hansenula saturnus Debaryomyces kloeckeri, and Torulopsis holmii were pink, Saccharomyces marxianus and Nadsonia fulvescens were white and the others were the same as the description in the previous report. Saccharomyces rouxii ware classified for the most part as TTC red yeasts, and while some of them were red pink. f) Species of yeasts in the soy sauce mash were similar to those in the soy sauce koji, but the latter were not osmophilic and in the former case, the osmophilic yeasts were increased in process of fermentation period.
간장덧중에 생육하는 효모를 경시적으로 계수 및 분리동정 하고 TTC 정색에 의하여 유별한 결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 간장덧 1ml중에 생육하는 일반효모의 수는 담금직후 $127{\times}10^3$, 1개월후 $86{\times}10^3$, 3개월후 $356{\times}10^3$, 6개월후 $1250{\times}10^3$, 2년후 $65{\times}10^3$ 개로 나타났고 내염성효모수는 담금직후 0, 1개월후 $40{\times}10^3$, 3개월후 $81{\times}10^3$, 6개월후 $358{\times}10^3$, 2년후 $23{\times}10^3$개 로서 일반효모와 내염성효모 다 같이 담금초에서 숙성기 까지 상승하였다가 후숙기에서 감소하는 경향을 보였다. (2) 간장덧으로 부터 경시적으로 임의 분리한 50주의 효모를 동정한 결과 Saccharomyces rouxii 10주, Saccharomyces marxianus 1주, Saccharomyces rosei 3주, Saccharomyces fermentati 1주, Saccharomyces mellis 6주, Saccharomyces acidifaciens 1주, Saccharomyces pastori 1주, Pichia polymorpha 3주, Hansenula anomala 2주, Hansenula saturnus 1주, Hansenula suaveolens 2주, Nadosonia fulvescens 5주, Debaryomyces hansenii 8주, Debaryomyces nicotianae 1주, Debaryomyces kloeckeri 1주, Torulopsis sake 2주, Torulopsis holmii 1주, Candida pelliculosa 1주등 7속 18종으로 동정 되었다. (3) 담금기간에 의한 효모의 분포는 담금초에 Saccharomyces rouxii, Saccharomyces marxianus, Saccharomyces rosei, Pichia polymorpha, Hansenula suaveolens, Hansenula saturnus, Debaryomyces hansenii, Torulopsis sake, Candida pelliculosa, Debaryomyces nicotianae, Nadsonia fulvescens 등이 생육하고 숙성기에 Saccharomyces rouxii, Saccharvmyces rosei, Saccharomyces fermentati, Saccharomyces mellis, Saccharomyces pastori, Hansenula anomala, Saccharomyces acidifaciens, Debaryomyces hansenii 등이 생육하고 후숙기에는 Saccharomyces rouxii, Saccharomyces mellis, Nadsonia fulvescens, Debaryomyces hansenii, Debaryomyces kloeckeri, Torulopsis sake, Torulopsis holmii 등이 생육하였다. (4) 담금초기에는 TTC white 효모가 많이 나타났고 발효기 와 후숙기에는 TTC red 효모가 50% 이상을 차지 하였다. (5) 동정한 이들 효모를 TTC 정색에 따라 유별한 결과 Saccharomyces mellis, Saccharomyces pastori는 TIC red로, Saccharomyces acidifaciens는 red pink. Hansenula saturnus, Debaryomyces kloeckeri, Torulopsis holmii는 pink, Saccharomyces marxianus, Nadsonia fulvescens는 white로 각각 나타났고 기타는 전보의 결과와 같았다. Saccharomyces rouxii대부분이 red였으나 red pink로 나타난 것도 있었다, (6) 간장덧중에 생육하는 효모의 종류는 국중에 생육하는 효모의 종류와 거의 비슷하게 나타났으나 국효모는 대부분이 내염성이 없었고 간장덧중의 효모는 발효기간의 경과에 따라 내염성 효모수가 증가 되었다.
