This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of functional Dasik prepared with a mixture of freeze-dried mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) powder and dried pollack powder along with assessment of the general and fatty acid compositions of mealworms. General compositions, except for moisture content of freeze-dried mealworm powder, were higher than those of raw mealworms. The ratios of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids of freeze-dried mealworm powder and raw mealworms were 1:3.31 and 1:3.19, respectively. Amounts of oleic acid, which was the most abundant among unsaturated fatty acids, of freeze-dried mealworm powder and raw mealworms were 41.12 and 37.84%, respectively. For color values, greater content of freeze-dried mealworm powder in functional Dasik resulted in lower L and b scores, whereas a value increased. In the case of mechanical properties, greater content of freeze-dried mealworm powder resulted in significant reduction of hardness, chewiness, and gumminess. In the case of sensory evaluation, color, taste, and overall quality of DPMD50, which was prepared with a 1:1 ratio of freeze-dried mealworm powder and dried pollack, were the highest. It was concluded that DPMD50 is a nutritious combination of edible insects and fish for protein fortification for growth and the elderly.
본 연구는 황태채, 북어채 및 대구채간의 차이를 MS-전자코를 이용하여 분석하였다. 이들 각 시료의 mass spectrum은 뚜렷한 차이를 보였으며 판별함수분석을 통해 휘발성 성분의 패턴을 분석한 결과 황태채와 북어채, 대구채가 구분되었다(r2= 0.7787, F = 185.2). 이러한 결과는 황태채, 북어채 및 대구채를 러시아산만을 선택하여 비교한 결과 그 차이가 더욱 뚜렷이 구분되었다. 결과적으로 전자코를 이용하여 유사 식품 간의 차이를 충분히 구분 가능하였으며 EMA 식품을 선별하는 데에도 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
