본 연구는 4일간 절식을 통해 배변을 하지 않고 먹이 급이 에 따른 흰점박이꽃무지 유충의 일반성분, 지방, 아미노산 등 을 분석하였다. 먹이 급이에 따른 체중감소는 호박, 알로에 쌀 겨, 절식 순으로 각각 0, 2.8, 15, 27% 나타났다. 조단백질 함 량은 50.7 ~ 55.4%, 지방함량의 분포는 16.1 ~ 18.5% 쌀겨 급 이 한 것이 가장 높게 나타났다. 전체 지방산 함량 중 불포화 지방산은 75.5 ~ 76.4%로 나타났으며, 알로에 급이가 76.4%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 구성아미노산 조성에서 필수아미노산의 36%, 비필수아미노산이 34%로 나타났다. 총 polyphenol 함량 은 쌀겨, 알로에, 호박, 절식 순으로 각각 23.57, 23.38, 23.05, 22.70 mg g−1으로 나타났다. ABTS DPPH radical 소거활성은 쌀겨를 급이한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충에서 각각 17.94 mgTE g−1, 2.00 mgTE g−1 가장 높게 나타났다. 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 명 도를 나타내는 L 값은 호박을 급이한 것이 72.3로 알로에를 급이한 것이 64.7, 쌀겨를 급이한 것이 58.3, 급이를 하지 않 은 것은 44.3으로 호박을 급이한 것이 가장 밝게 나타났으며, 급이를 하지 않은 것이 가장 어둡게 나타났다.
This study analyzed the chemical composition, fat, and amino acids of the white-spotted flower chafers, Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis (Kolbe) according to the type of food, and It is not a bowel movement by fasting for four days. The loss of weight was increased in the order of food pumpkin (0%), aloe (2.8%), rice bran (15%) and fasting (27%). In all feeding larvae, crude protein content was in the range of 50.7 ~ 55.4% and fat content was 16.1 ~ 18.5%. The rice bran fed larvae showed highest content of both crude protein and fat. Unsaturated fatty acid content of the total fatty acid was in the range of 76.4 to 75.5%. The highest content of unsaturated fatty acid was measured in the aloe fed larvae. Among the structural amino acids, essential amino acid was 36% and 34% non-essential amino acids. The amount of total polyphenol were 23.57, 23.38, 23.05 and 22.7 mg g-1 in the larvae feeding bran, aloe, pumpkin, and fasting, respectively. ABTS, DPPH radical scavenging activity was the highest in the rice bran fed larvae with 17.94 mg TEg-1 and 2.00 mg TEg-1, respectively. L value indicating the lightness of larvae was 72.3, 64.7, 58.3 and 44.3 in the larvae feeding pumpkin, aloe, rice bran and nothing, respectively; the pumpkin fed one was the most bright and fasting one was the most dark. This result suggests that it is better feeding fruit vegetables than fasting the white-spotted flower chafers larvae before processing.
