Abstract
Within the field of food biotechnology, microorganisms have been well utilized as bioreactors and source mechanisms for such useful biosubstances as enzymes, antibiotics, organic and amino acids, vitamins, and so on.1,2 Most microorganisms thus applied have been mesophilic. Recently, the utilization of thermophilic organisms has increased because of their thermostable characteristics. However, the utilization of cold-adapted microorganisms in food biotechnology has been very limited.3–5
