Aspergillus Sojae/Oryzae
• Release enzymes to digest material
• Material is absorbed by hyphae
• Types of Enzyme produced during Koji
Fermentation
– Amylolytic, Proteolytic, Peptidolytic, and
Lypolytic enzymes
• Reproduces by sporulation

3 Stages in Brine Fermentation
18
Brine Fermentation Stage 1.
• Protein and Starch Hydrolysis
19
Brine Fermentation Stage 2.
• Culture of Lactic Acid Bacteria and pH Reduction
– Pediococcus bacteria
Growing in a 24% salt solution, T = 15 °C
Anaerobic
– Initial pH value: 6.5 – 7.0
dioxide
– Final pH value : ~ 5.0
