These studies were conducted to induce the available mutants in Takju yeasts by the irradiation of UV light. Two original strains(5-Y-5, 6-Y-6) using for irradiation of UV selected from 24 strains which were isolated from the Takju mashes And Nuruks collected from 12 local regions of Chungnam and Chungbuk provinces in Korea, and the irradiations to the yeasts with UV light were carried out at a distance 10-40cm from the sources of irradiation for 10-220 seconds. The purpose of this experiment is to report the effects of irradiating distances and times of UV light on the survival ratio of orginal yeasts, and the identification of two orginal yeasts and three mutants induced by the irradiation of UV light. The results were summarized as follows. 1) The effects of irradiating distances and times on the survival ratio on the yeasts were represented as follows. and acid productivity to the survival strains by the irradiation of UV light. The selected mutants were the strains 30-24, 40-27 which have more powerful fermentability about 10 percent than those of original strains and a strain 30-81 which have potential acid productivity. 3) The selected yeasts (5-Y-5, 6-Y-6) were identified to Saccharomyces cerevisiae by a taxonomic study of Lodder and the mutants(30-81, 40-27, 30-81) induced from above yeasts by the irradiation of UV light have almost same properties two orginal yeasts in the identical characteristics.
