KOREASCHOLAR

In this study, physicochemical properties and the antioxidative activity of whey protein isolate(WPI) for com germ oil were measured. The pH of WPI was 6.26, and the titrable acidity was 0.18%. The WPI’s moisture content was 5.2% and each of the other element content such as lactose, crude protein, crude ash and crude fat was found to be 0.8%, 90.7%, 2.7% and 0.6%, respectively. The amounts of active SH group in WPI 9 μ M-g and total colony counts of bacteria was 5.9 × 103 CFU-g. α-Lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin and bovine serum albumin(BSA) were shown in WPI as major protein by electrophoresis. The antioxidative effect of WPI and other antioxidants on com germ oil used as substrate was determined by peroxide value(POV) and conjuqated dienoic acid value(CDV). By these results, the order of antioxidative effects could be defined as BHT 0.02%〉ascorbic acid 0.1%〉WPI 0.1%〉WPI 0.02%〉ascorbic acid 0.02%〉control〉tocopherol 0.02%〉tocopherol 0.1%, respectively. Also the induction period of com germ oil added with WPI was longer by 1.6 times than that of control(none added any antioxidant). Therefore the fact suggested that WPI could be utilized as a good antioxidative agents.
