분쇄한 생마늘 10%와 식염을 6, 8, 10 및 12%로 달리하여 저염 마늘 된장을 제조하고, 상온에서 6주간 숙성시키면서 일주일 간격으로 시료를 취하여 숙성기간에 따른 품질 특성의 변화를 분석하였다. 숙성 시간이 경과할수록 명도는 감소하였으나, 적색도와 황색도는 유의적인 변화의 경향이 없었다. 염도는 된장 제조 직후에 비해 숙성 6주차에 1% 정도씩 증가하였으며, pH는 저장기간이 경과할수록 점차 감소하였으며, 산도는 이와 상반되게 증가되는 경향이었다. 환원당은 숙성기간의 경과와 더불어 유의적으로 증가하여 된장 제조 직후에 1.34~1.88 g/100 g이던 것이 숙성 6주차에는 7.25~9.13 g/100 g으로 변화하였는데, 식염의 첨가 농도가 낮을수록 환원당의 함량이 더 높았다. 아미노태 질소는 100~130 mg%에서 숙성 6주차에는 210~290 mg%로 약 2배 증가하였는데, 식염의 첨가 농도가 높을수록 아미노태질소의 함량은 더 낮았다. 된장의 발효 균주인 Bacillus 균주의 생육은 숙성 14일까지 증가되다가 그 이후부터는 감소되는 경향이었는데, 식염 10%와 12% 첨가군에서는 숙성 14일까지 Bacillus 균주의 생육이 양호하였다. 반면 효모는 된장의 숙성 초기에 급격히 감소하였으며, 숙성 21일 이후에는 일정범위를 유지하여 큰 변화는 없었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 마늘이 첨가된 저염 된장은 염농도가 낮을수록 환원당이나 아미노태 질소의 함량이 더 높았고, 이화학적인 품질에도 크게 영향을 받지 않아 6% 정도의 식염첨가로 저염화가 가능할 것으로 확인되었다.

마늘종의 주요 성분 함량에 대한 기초자료를 확보하고자 마늘의 주산지인 남해군 8개 지역에서 마늘종을 수거하여 비교 분석하였다. 수분은 80.15±0.37~83.87±0.15 g/100 g, 조단백 및 조지방은 각각 1.59±0.02~2.25±0.09 g/100 g 및 0.35±0.01~0.48±0.03 g/100 g이었으며 회분은 0.65±0.03~0.71±0.03 g/100 g이었다. 총페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 33.02±1.78~58.41±1.08 mg/100 g과 11.60±3.36~23.95±2.04 mg/100 g이었다. 총 클로로필 함량은 이동면 지역의 마늘종에서 170.58±1.04 μg/g으로 가장 높았고 창선면 지역의 마늘종은 116.65±0.00 μg/g으로 가장 낮았다. 무기물은 총 8종이 검출되었으며, 검출된 무기물 중 칼륨(7257.0±87.9~10070.0±9.7 mg/kg)의 함량이 가장 높았고, 총량은 이동면과 남해읍 지역의 마늘종이 각각 21,163.7 mg/kg과 20,608.3 mg/kg으로 타 지역산에 비해 높은 함량이었다. 알리신 함량은 78.03±6.15~203.43±18.47 mg/kg으로 재배지역에 따라 함량 차이가 컸으며, 함황화합물 5종을 분석한 결과 diallyl trisulfide가 약 70%로 가장 함유 비율이 높았는데, 이동면 지역 마늘종에서 427.03±27.72 mg/kg으로 가장 높은 함량이었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 지리적 환경이 유사한 남해군내 8개 지역에서 재배된 마늘종의 성분간 함량 차이는 시비량, 일조량 등의 재배 환경과 재배품종 및 재배기술에 의한 것으로 추정되며, 마늘종 재배지역간의 함량차이는 있으나 마늘의 유효물질을 함유하고 있어 식품소재로서 활용 가치가 우수할 것으로 판단된다.

Quality and sensory characteristics of tofu prepared with concentrated to 8 oBrix deep ground sea-like water (SW) were investigated to check the availability for coagulants. The tofu was coagulated with three kinds of commercially coagulant, such as MgCl2, CaSO4 and glucono-δ-lactone. Different amounts of SW and soybean milk were added: SW-20 g/L, SW-25 g/L and SW-30 g/L. The moisture content and pH were significantly lower in which preparation with glucono-δ-lactone coagulated tofu, and others has not significantly difference each other. The mineral contents in the coagulant influenced the mineral content of the tofu, which contained larger quantities of major minerals. However, the mineral content of the tofu was not affected of the mineral concentration in the coagulant. The L and b values of the tofu prepared with SW were not significantly different. The hardness of the tofu prepared with the commercial coagulants was significantly lower than that of the tofu produced with the SW. The sensory property was lower when the hardness was lower and higher. In conclusion, the quality characteristics of SW-prepared tofu were not significantly different from those of the tofu prepared with the commercial coagulants, but the texture and the taste of the SW-prepared tofu were excellent.

In this study, we examined the antioxidant activity of the Sumaeyaksuk (Artemisia argyi) tea extracts from different pre-treatment and extraction methods. Sumaeyaksuk was sun-dried for 3.5 days (control, RC) and aged at a temperature of 60℃ for 3.5 days (HA), 7 days (HB), and 14 days (HC), respectively. Each sample was extracted in 60℃ and 95℃ hot water for 2 minutes. The soluble solids content of HA from the 60℃ and 95℃ hot water extraction were 0.52±0.18% and 0.92±0.18%, respectively. The soluble solids content was increased by the higher extraction temperature. The reducing sugar content of RC was 9.55±0.18 mg/g in the 95℃ extraction, which was significantly higher than in the 60℃ extracted sample. However, the reducing sugar content did not show a remarkable difference based on aging periods. The total phenolic compound content of the 95℃ extracted samples was 3.36±0.13~9.88±0.23 mg/g, which was significantly higher than that of the 60℃ extracted sample. The ABTS radical scavenging activity of the 60℃ extracted RA and HA samples were 35.63% and 95.10%, respectively. Moreover, the radical scavenging activity increased to 63.35% and 96.78%, respectively, in the 95℃ extracted samples. As a result of the high temperature, the extracted sample showed an increase in the FRAP. In the RC sample, the FRAP was two times higher in the 95℃ extracted sample (181.28±2.90 μM) than in the 60℃ extracted sample (83.88±0.43 μM).

In this study, we investigated quality and fermentation characteristics in baechu kimchi containing 0(control), 5(GK5), 10(GK10), 15(GK15) and 20(GK20)% of shred garlic. Analysis was performed during fermentation at 4℃ for 42 days, every 7 days. The result showed significant changes in color value between control group and garlic added groups. Hunter’s color L value was increased during fermentation whereas a and b value were decreased. Hardness of kimchi was higher in 15% and 20% garlic added groups than other groups. The pH decreased significantly during fermentation, while titratable acidity was showed reverse tendency during fermentation period. The reducing sugar content was decreased in all groups during fermentation period, which higher in GK10 and GK15 group than the others. But its remaining ratio was 19.7∼22.3% and not showed significant difference in experimental groups at 42 days fermentation. The number of lactic acid bacteria was dramatically increased up to 6.13∼7.60 log CFU/g at 7∼14 days fermentation. The garlic was inhibited significantly the growth of lactic acid bacteria, but this was not showed significant difference between garlic added groups and control group, after 28 days fermentation. As a results, we suggest that addition of garlic increase the quality characteristics and storage properties of Kimchi, and not hinder quality of kimchi at addition level of 20% than salted baechu.

생마늘과 흑마늘의 중간 특성과 성상을 지니는 홍마늘을 개발하고 그 품질특성을 규명하고자 홍마늘의 제조공정을 온도 변화에 따라 4단계로 나누고 각 제조 단계에서 얻은 홍마늘의 이화학적 특성을 생마늘 및 흑마늘과 비교 분석하였다. 홍마늘의 외부색과 내부색은 숙성기간이 경과됨에 따라 생마늘에 비해 L값은 유의적으로 감소하였다. 조직감은 생마늘에서 가장 높았고, 흑마늘이 가장 낮은 반면 홍마늘은 숙성단계가 진행됨에 따라 점차 단단해지는 경향이었다. 숙성

This study was performed to examine the quality and antioxidant activity of pork ham with various levels of black garlic extracts. Pork ham manufactured from black garlic extracts with 15 brix (1% (H1), 1.5% (H2), 2% (H3)) and 30 brix (0.2% (H4), 0.5% (H5), 1% (H6) were stored for 28 days at and analyzed with an interval of 7 days. In the sensory evaluation, the garlic odor was increased as the garlic extract adding level larger, whereas color, flavor, juiciness, texture and acceptability were not showed significant differences. The pH values of pork products were increased as the level of black garlic extracts increased. The shear force value of groups (H4~H6) with the addition of 30 brix extracts addition were significantly higher than those groups with 15 brix extracts addition (H1~H3) throughout the storage period. Furthermore, the TBARS (thiobarbutric acid reactive substance) content of the pork ham containing various levels of black garlic extract were lower than that of the control group as storage period increased. Thus, black garlic extracts have a potential application for the pork products to inhibit of lipid oxidation.
