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).
