Low-temperature adaptation and cryoprotection were studied in Leuconostoc mesenteroides SY1, a strain isolated from Kimchi. L. mesenteroides SY1 cells grown in exponential growth phase at 30℃ were exposed to 15℃, 10℃, and 5℃ for 2, 4, and 6 h, respectively, and then frozen at -70℃ for 24 h. Survival ratio was measured after the cells were thawed. The freezing-thawing cycles were repeated four times. Preadapted cells survived better than non-adapted control cells, and the highest survival ratio (96%) was observed for cells preadapted for 2 h at 5℃, whereas control cells showed only 22%.
