Effects of sub-materials such as, ethanol, mustard, and chitosan, on enzymatic, microbial and physicochemical characteristics of Kochujang, were inverstigated during fermentation. Activity of α-amylase was low in chitosan-added Kochujang, whereas those of β-amylase and protease did not show any remarkable difference. Viable cells of yeast and bacteria decreased in sub-material-added Kochujang during fermentation, with yeast counts decreasing more rapidly in ethanol- and mustard-added Kochujang than that with chitosan.
