This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Acetic acid bacteria capable of growing at 30˚C - 37˚C were collected from various decomposed fruits available in Bangladeshi local markets in order to assess their suitability for vinegar pro- duction. Initially, 42 microorganisms were isolated from decomposed fruits like grapes, mangoes, pineapples, oranges, safeda etc. during summer when temperature reaches up to 37˚C. Then their growths were checked in YPG medium containing various ethanol concentrations at different time point at 37˚C. From the preliminary screening, 15 Gram negative bacterial isolates have produced halos or yellow zone around the colonies on YPG agar plate at 37˚C which indicated acetic acid production capability by those bacteria. Furthermore, acetic acid production rates were deter- mined by titration method and about 3 - 6.9 gm/100ml acetic acid were estimated by using 4% ethanol at 37˚C by shaking culture for 3 days.

The Use of Vinegar in Chinese Medicine
The Use of Vinegar in Chinese Medicine by Bob Flaws, Dipl. Ac. & C.H., FNAAOM, FRCHM In Chinese medicine, there is no hard and fast line between a food and a medicinal. As the well-known Chinese saying goes, “Food and medicinals [have] a common source.” Following on the heels of the popularity of artisanal olive oils, artisanal vinegars are quickly becoming a focus of attention in the world of cooking and cuisine. So far, this attention has mainly centered on these vinegars’ extraordinary flavors. However, just as many have discovered the healing benefits of olive oil, vinegar also has its many health benefits and medicinal uses. This is especially so in Chinese medicine. In Chinese, vinegar is called ku jiu, bitter wine, chun cu, pure vinegar, and mi cu, rice vinegar. It is primarily made in China from fermented millet, wheat, sorghum, and rice. According to Chinese medical theory, vinegar’s flavor is sour and bitter and its nature or temperature is warm. It enters the liver and stomach channels, and its functions are that it scatters stasis, stops bleeding, resolves toxins, and kills worms. In professional Chinese medicine, various Chinese medicinals are stir-fried in vinegar in order to either help target them to the liver-gallbladder or to increase their functions of moving the qi and quickening the blood. However, in Chinese folk medicine, vinegar is a medicinal in its own right, treating a wide range of disorders and complaints, including internal medicine, gynecological, dermatological, and traumatological conditions. Below is a selection of folk recipes taken from Li Bing-shen et al.’s Cu Dan Zhi Bai Bing (The Treatment of Hundreds of Diseases with Vinegar & Eggs), Shanghai Science & Technology Publishing Co., Shanghai, 1992.

During alcohol fermentation, using enriched baker’s dried yeast (S. cerevisiae) as a starter culture gave the highest ethanol content over 7 days of fermentation. The conversion of ethanol to acetic acid for vinegar production by Acetobacter pasteurianus TISTR 102 was performed for 25 days. The highest amount of acetic acid was detected with glutinous rice fermentation (6.68% w/v). The biological properties of Thai rice vinegars were determined, including the total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity. Black glutinous rice vinegar exhibited the maximum total phenolic content of 133.68 mg GAE/100 mL. This result was related to the antioxidative activity ﬁndings, for which black glutinous rice vinegar exhibited the strongest activity against both ABTS•+ and DPPH• radicals.

Download a PDF of the Sushi Rice HACCP Guidelines
Sonoma County Department of Health Services Environmental Health 625 5th St., Santa Rosa, CA 95404 (707) 565-6565 Fax (707) 565-6525 http://www.sonoma-county.org/food Sushi Rice HACCP Plan Guidelines Background Sushi is a type of Japanese cuisine consisting of acidified rice combined with various toppings and fillings, usually raw fish or other ingredients. Sushi rice is generally kept at room temperature or in a warm holding unit in sushi restaurants for the ideal taste. The primary pathogens of concern associated with cooked rice are Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus. Uncooked rice is often contaminated with Bacillus cereus bacteria from soil. The bacteria form spores that can survive normal cooking. Staphylococcus aureus is a toxin-producing bacterium commonly found on the skin, nose, and throat and can contaminate the food by poor hygiene of food handlers and improper food handling practices. If the cooked rice is kept out of temperature control, spores released by the bacteria can germinate and produce toxins that can make a person ill if consumed. The control measure to keep the sushi rice safe at room temperature is the addition of a vinegar solution to reduce its pH to below 4.6 at which point the growth of harmful bacteria is inhibited. It is difficult to ensure the safety of sushi rice because each sushi chef uses his/her own recipe with differing amounts of the vinegar solution which may result in differing pH levels. CalCode Requirements for Sushi Rice Pursuant to the California Retail Food Code (CalCode), Article 5, Section 114419(3), a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan is required when a food facility uses food additives or components such as vinegar to render a food non-potentially hazardous (food not requiring refrigeration to prevent microbial growth).

Traditional Vinegars Identification by Colorimetric Sensor
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia Chemistry 6 ( 2012 ) 20 – 26 2nd International Conference on Bio-Sensing Technology Traditional Vinegars Identification by Colorimetric Sensor XiaoBo. Zoua*, YanXiao Lia, JiYong Shia, Xiaowei Huanga and JieWen Zhaoa aAgricultural Product Nondestructive Detection Lab, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, Jiangsu 212013, China Abstract An expanded colorimetric array detector that was capable of the highly sensitive and highly selective discrimination of vinegars was developed. The system of olfaction visualization and operational approach were discussed. Thirty dyes were selected from natural dyes, chemoresponsive dyes and pH dyes. A 5h6 colorimetric sensor array was created by printing the dyes on reverse phase silica gel plates. Four traditional vinegars were measured by the colorimetric sensor array. With cluster analysis, all samples were assembled ‘Zhenjiang Vinegar’, ‘Shanxi Vinegar’, ‘Sichuan Vinegar’, ‘Jiangzhe Vinegar’ when the similarity was 12. This work showed the potential applications of the olfaction visualization technology for visual analyzing and fingerprint identifying the aroma of food. © 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Introduction Vinegar is defined as a liquid fit for human consumption and contains a specified amount of acetic acid. China has more than 5000 year's history of producing vinegar. Every year over 26 million hectoliters of vinegar is produced in China. Chinese people treat the vinegars as favorite condiments, health products and even medicines. More than 3.2 million liters of vinegar is consumed every day in China [1].
