5. Conclusion
Korean cabbage and radish are the major substrates; garlic, green onion, ginger, leaf
mustard, hot pepper, parsely and carrot are minor ingredients.
Kimchi fermented processing and Leaf mustard processing are used the most important
feedstock that consist the most of cellulosic substrates for produce lactic acid.
Lactic acid bacteria in Kimchi fermented processing and Leaf mustard processing are
presented by Leuconostoc mesenteroides , Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus
plantarum ,
respectively
under the best operational conditions at 20°C pH 4.0-4.5
In addition to these physiological effects, the salty taste, fresh carbonated sensation, and
crispy texture
of both has made it the most favored and indispensable food for Asia.
More research is needed to identify the lactic acid bacteria in Asian fermented foods and
useful for the industrial applications.
