Table 3. Changes in pH, acidity and viable cell count of Toxicodendron vernicifluum extract fermented by S. cerevisiae

Fermentation strain 1st Fermentation period (days) pH Acidity (%) Viable cell count (S. cerevisiae, log CFU/mL)
Yeast 0 5.13±0.08a1) 0.21±0.01a 5.38±0.04b
1 4.39±0.02b 0.25±0.04a 7.36±0.10a
2 4.56±0.04c 0.20±0.03a 7.37±0.10a
Each value is a mean±SD (n=3). Different letters in the same fermentation period mean significant difference by Duncan’s multiple range test (p<0.05).
