Recently, health concerns related to NaCl overconsumption have led to an increased demand for sodium-reduced foods. The purpose of this research is to investigate the possibility of using enzymatically hydrolyzed isolated soybean protein (eHISP) to reduce the level of salt in salad dressing. The intensity of the salty taste enhancing effect was 31%, 29%, 43%, and 52% in the samples with 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% eHISP added, respectively. There are significant differences between the control and samples (p<0.05). The overall acceptability was increased as the amount of added eHISP was increased when eHISP was 1.0%. However, it was lower when 1.5% eHISP was added. The pH of salad dressing was increased as the eHISP addition was increased. The results showed that the addition of eHISP to a salad dressing significantly enhances its salty taste effect.

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the sensory characteristics and protein concentration of enzymatically hydrolyzed isolated soy protein. As a result of QDA, 34 attribute descriptors were developed. According to the results of the flavor profile, the strengths of most color and tastes except sourness were evaluated before activated carbon treatment sample. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to summarize the relationship between attributes and samples. The result of PCA was 56.35% (F1) and 35.05% (F2), having explained 94.13% in total variablility. In case of the untreated sample of active carbon, it was located in the first quadrant and correlated with color, flavor, a slightly salty taste, and a slightly bitter taste. It also showed high correlation with meju taste. The activated carbon treatment samples were located in the second quadrant and correlated with delicate taste, slight saltiness, sourness, and umami, having high correlation with burned rice.

본 연구에서는 나노버블수로 재배한 새싹인삼(NB-4)과 일반수로 4개월간 재배한 새싹인삼(NA-4)의 이화학적 차이와 조사포닌 및 진세노사이드의 함량을 비교하여 나노버블수로 재배한 새싹인삼의 우수성을 확인하였다. 또한 NB-4 새싹인삼의 상업적 적용 가능성에 대한 기초자료를 확보하고자 시판 효소 3종으로 가수분해하여 이화학적 특성 및 항산화 활성을 비교 하였다. 생장 특성에서는 NB-4 새싹인삼이 NA-4 새싹인삼에 비해 길이나 굵기 면에서 더 높은 생육 증진 효과가 확인되었다. 잎과 뿌리 모두에서 회분과 조지방 함량은 시료간에 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 조사포닌 함량은 NB-4 새싹인삼에서 더 높았으며, 총 진세노사이드 함량은 NA-4가 더 높았는데 특히 잎에서의 Rb2 함량은 NB-4 새싹인삼에 더 높았다. 총 페놀화합물의 함량은 NB-4의 잎과 NA-4의 뿌리에서 유의적으로 높은 함량이었고, 플라보노이드는 잎에서만 검출되었으며, NB-4와 NA-4 간에는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 상대적으로 조사포닌 함량이 높았던 NB-4를 viscozyme, cellulast 및 fungamyl 각각으로 가수분해 한 결과 viscozyme으로 가수분해 했을 때, pH는 가장 낮고, 산도, 환원당 함량과 총 페놀화합물의 함량은 가장 높았다. 효소 분해물의 항산화 효능을 DPPH와 ABTS 라디칼소거능으로 평가한 결과 각각 viscozyme과 fungamyl 분해물의 항산화 활성이 우수한 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 나노버블수로 재배한 새싹인삼에서 사포닌함량이 더 높으며, 효소분해물 제조시는 적용되는 효소에 따라 항산화 활성을 높일 수 있으므로 액상 추출물의 제조에는 효소의 적용이 적합한 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was that the optimal hydrolysis conditions of endo- and exo-type enzymes were selected to utilize organic cheese byproducts. Optimal substrate concentration and optimum enzyme ratio were measured by using 4 kinds of endo-type enzymes (alcalase, neutrase, protamex, and foodpro alkaline protease) and two exo-type enzymes (flavourzyme and prozyme 2000P) for whey protein hydrolysis were analyzed using liquid chromatography. As a result, the optimal endo-type enzyme through the first enzyme reaction was selected as alcalse, and as a result of the secondary enzyme reaction, flavourzme was selected as the Exo type enzyme. The concentration of whey protein substrate for optimal primary and secondary enzyme reactions was 10%. In addition, the optimum ratio of enzyme was 0.5% of alcalase and 0.2% of flavourzyme, which showed low molecular weight chromatography pattern compared to 2% of alcalase and 1% of flavourzyme hydrolyzate. Therefore, hydrolyzing the endo-type enzyme alcalase at a concentration of 0.5% for 10 hours and then hydrolyzing the exo-type enzyme flavouryme at a concentration of 0.2% for 4 hours was considered to be the optimum condition.

This study investigated the possible use of enzymatically hydrolyzed isolated soy protein (eHISP) to enhance the intensity of salty taste. The sodium chloride content of eHISP is 69.5 g/L. Yellowness (b) increased, and lightness (L) and redness (a) decreased with increasing eHISP concentration in sample solution. Also, perceived salty intensity of eHISP solution increased in sample solution with increasing added amount of eHISP with same NaCl concentration. The intensity of the salty taste was enhanced by 2-39% as the eHISP was added. The results suggest that it may be possible to reduce the content of sodium chloride in foods by enhancing the salty taste with eHISP.

Medium pressure and mixed enzyme were used to hydrolyze raw anchovy under controlled conditions at a batchpilot plant-scale process for the production of anchovy protein hydrolysates (APH). Mass balance calculations were carried out so that the degree of protein solubilization and yields could be estimated. Almost complete hydrolysis could be achieved in 12 h, at 50oC and 75 MPa, with no pH adjustment, at 1% (10 g/kg) mixed enzyme using raw anchovy. This was achieved with the addition of water (1/2 raw anchovy/water). The degrees of protein solubilization and yield were 63.50% and 55.61%, respectively. Fractionation using UF/NF pilot scale systems was carried out for producing four different fractions on the APH. Successive fractionation on UF and NF membranes allowed the concentration of the peptides of selected sizes without, however, carrying out sharp separations, and with some MW classes being found in several fractions. Spray drying processes for 10 kDa permeate were described to increase their usability. The free amino acid profile of the fractions was identical to that of the APH.

A Taguchi robust design method with an L9 orthogonal array and larger-the-better characteristics was implemented to optimize experimental conditions for the hydrolysis of raw anchovy using a pressure-assisted enzymatic reaction method. The degree of hydrolysis (DH), nitrogen recovery (NR) and yield were considered as the response parameters. Pressure, reaction temperature, reaction time, and mixed enzyme amount were chosen as control parameters. As a result of the Taguchi analysis in this study, the pressure was found to be the most influential parameter on DH and NR. The amount of mixed enzyme in the reaction also had a significant effect on DH and NR. Meanwhile, the optimum values were confirmed to be similar at 95% confidence and 5% significance level through analysis of variance (ANOVA). Furthermore, new hydrolysates at optimum conditions and control hydrolysates at atmospheric pressure were compared in terms of the DH, resulting in the improvement of DH by more than 52.6%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of the use of enzymatically hydrolyzed anchovy protein (eHAP) to enhance the salty taste in salad dressing when it was applied in cooking. The intensity of the salty taste was enhanced by 5-11% when 0.1-1.5% eHAP was added. This indicates that the salty taste enhancing effect was decreased as the amount of added eHAP was increased. However, there are no significant differences between the control and samples (p>0.05). The overall preference was increased as the amount of added eHAP was increased. The preference value was the highest when 1.0% of eHAP was added, while it was slightly lower when 1.5% of eHAP was added. This may be because the content of free amino acids with a bitter taste contained in eHAP was increased. The pH value was increased as the amount of added eHAP was increased. With respect to the chromaticity, the lightness and yellowness were increased but the redness was not significantly changed when the amount of added eHAP was increased. It was found that the addition of eHAP to a salad dressing enhanced the salty taste and the preference, but the enhancement was not significant.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of the use of enzymatically hydrolyzed anchovy protein (eHAP) to enhancing of salty taste in dried pollack soup and mungbean sprout when it was applied in cooking. The salty taste enhancing effect was evaluated by comparing the dried pollack soup samples with eHAP added and the control sample containing 0.6% NaCl, and the result showed that the salty taste enhancing effect was 15%, 25%, 42%, and 46% in the samples with 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% eHAP added, respectively. The overall acceptability was decreased as the eHAP addition was increased. In case of a bean sprout containing 0.7% NaCl, the salty taste enhancing effect was 29%, 18%, 16%, and 31% in the 0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% eHAP added, respectively. The lightness and yellowness were decreased as the eHAP addition was increased in both the dried pollack soup and the bean sprout. The pH of the dried pollack soup was decreased but the pH of the bean sprout dish was increased as the addition of eHAP was increased. The application of eHAP to food showed a significant salty taste enhancing effect, but the effect was dependent on the type of foods.

High pressure and enzymatic hydrolysis was applied to anchovy in order to produce a natural seasoning salt enhancer. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the sensory characteristics and protein concentration of enzymatic hydrolysates with anchovy. According to the results of QDA, 24 attribute descriptors were developed. Based on the flavor profile, the strengths of most tastes, except sourness, color flavor, and odor were evaluated before activated carbon treatment. Principal components analysis (PCA) was performed to summarize the relationship between attributes and samples. The result of PCA was F1 72.13% and F2 22.01%, having explained 94.13% in total variability, as F1 was shown according to the correlation about activated carbon treatment before or after samples. The characteristics of color, flavor/odor, and saltiness or bitter taste had higher correlation before activated carbon treatment samples. Also, F2 was shown to have no correlation to the samples.
