In this study, we examined the effects of controlling the alcohol concentration of non-sterilized makgeolli on the levels of biogenic amines (BAs) as an indicator of hygiene. Makgeollis were prepared at four different alcohol concentrations (5.73-13.

- Acerola is a rich source of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), which is significantly influenced by the GMP enzyme crucial for its biosynthesis in plants.
- Researchers isolated the GMP gene (named MgGMP) from acerola fruit, identifying it as having high similarity to GMP genes in other plants and a specific structure with 361 amino acids.
- The expression of MgGMP varies throughout the ripening stages of acerola, with the highest levels found in unripe fruits, suggesting a direct relationship between MgGMP mRNA levels and vitamin C content as the fruit ripens.
