When the temperature of culture plates was increased from -1 to.*, the spore number (/ml) after sporulation treatment was observed to increase, and the number of spores was maximized by using cells from the second culture day. In a previous study, the addition of *.*+ mmol/ lmn, to the culture medium increased the spore ratio (ratio of spore number to whole cell number) from 1, (data obtained in a previous study) to more than 3*. In the present study, as inorganic Mn, was not permitted as a food additive, we prepared extracts from four foods with high Mn, content : dry sea lettuce, raw and dry green laver, and poppy seeds. By adding these extracts to the medium we could achieve a spore ratio of more than 3*. There were no large di#erences in organoleptic test results for natto produced with starters prepared from four kinds of food extracts.
