본 연구는 증숙밤(95℃, 90분) 페이스트의 발효에 적합한 유산균을 탐색하고 유산균에 의해 발효된 밤 발효 퓨레의 품질적 특성을 조사하였다. 유산균 12종에 대하여 2.0%(v/w)의 농도로 접종하여 3 7℃에서 48시간 발효한 결과 L. plantarum KCTC 21004가 산 생성능이 우수하였다. 증숙밤의 함량, 균 접종량 및 발효온도에 따른 발효 밤 퓨레의 발효 및 품질적 특성을 분석한 결과 물리화학적 특성에는 큰 차이가 나타나지 않았으나 퓨레의 물성 측정시 증숙밤 50% 함량 페이스트가 최적의 조건이었다.
The senior dog population (ages 7+) is increasing worldwide because of a larger interest in the health of companion dogs. In this study, we aimed to develop dog foods via fermentation to address the nutritional needs of senior dogs. The dog food ingredients were fermented with candidates of starter culture and then the fermentation efficiency was compared using pH and ammonia nitrogen for selection of optimum strains. The fermentation was carried out with a moisture content of 60% and starter culture of 1.0×107 cfu/g at 3 7℃ for 24 h. And there were manufactured pre- and post-senior dog foods (treatments) including fermented rice, fermented pinto bean, and fermented soybean meal and it compared with non-fermented dog foods (controls) on fermentation characteristics, in vitro dry matter and crude protein digestibility, and palatability. As results of this study, fermentation efficiency was higher when rice or wheat was inoculated with Lactobacillus brevis (ΔpH; -2.74 ~ -2.94) and meat and bone meal with Lactobacillus reuteri (ΔNH3-N conc.; 4.29 g/L). The ammonia nitrogen level, total volatile fatty acid content, in vitro dry matter and crude protein digestibility of L. brevis-fermented dog food were significantly greater than those of non-fermented dog food (p<0.05). Further, in case of palatability tests, fermented foods tended to have higher palatability compared to non-fermented foods, and no negative effect was observed in fermented foods. These results suggest that fermented food is suitable for senior dogs and could help to maintain adult dog health.
본 연구는 아로니아 천연 발효종을 사용하여 sourdough starter를 만들고, sourdough starter 첨가량을 0%, 15%, 25%, 35%로 증가하며 모닝빵을 제조할 때 starter 첨가량에 따른 품질특성, 항산화력, 소비자 선호도를 비교하기 위해 수행하였다. 아로니아 sourdough starter 함량이 증가할수록 모닝빵의 pH는 감소하였고, 총산도와 수분함량은 증가하였다. 비용적과 굽기 손실율 또한 sourdough starter 첨가량에 따라 유의적으로 증가하여 35% 첨가군(AS3)에서 가장 큰 굽기 손실율을 나타내었으나(P<0.05), 높이는 25% 첨가군(AS2)이 가장 높고 35% 첨가군에서 급격히 감소하였다. 발효 팽창력의 경우 0-25% 첨가군(AS0, AS1, AS2) 모두 45분까지 유의적으로 증가하였으나(P<0.05), 35% 첨가군은 30분까지만 팽창력이 증가하다가 30분 이후에는 급격히 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 모닝빵의 총 페놀 함량과 DPPH 라디칼 소거능은 아로니아 sourdough starter 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 유의적으로 향상되었으며 (P<0.05), 색도는 첨가량이 증가할수록 밝기(L*)와 황색도 (b*)는 감소하고, 적색도는(a*) 증가하였다(P<0.05). 모닝빵의 조직감 측정 결과 응집성(cohesiveness)은 25% 첨가군이 가장 높고, 경도(hardness), 검성(gumminess), 씹힘성 (chewiness)은 아로니아 sourdough starter 첨가량이 증가할수록 유의적으로 낮게 측정되었다(P<0.05). 소비자 선호도 조사에서는 35% 첨가군의 색에 대한 선호도가 가장 낮았고, 15%와 25% 첨가군이 조직감과 전반적인 기호도가 좋은 것으로 나타났다(P<0.05). 이상의 결과에서 아로니아 sourdough starter를 첨가한 모닝빵의 품질특성, 항산화 활성, 소비자 선호도를 모두 고려할 때에 sourdough starter 는 밀가루 대비 25%를 첨가하는 것이 가장 우수하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
Leuconostoc spp. are generally utilized as kimchi starters, because these strains are expected to have beneficial effects on kimchi fermentation, including improvement of sensory characteristics. Here, we developed a detection method for verifying the presence of the kimchi starter Leuconostoc mesenteroides WiKim33, which is used for control of kimchi fermentation. A primer set for multiplex polymerase chain reaction was designed based on the nucleotide sequence of the plasmids in strain WiKim33, and their specificity was validated against 45 different strains of Leuconostoc spp. and 30 other strains. Furthermore, the starter strain consistently tested positive, regardless of the presence of other bacterial species in starter kimchi during the fermentation period. Our findings showed that application of a strain-specific primer set for strain WiKim33 presented a rapid, sensitive, and specific method for detection of this kimchi starter strain during natural kimchi fermentation.
Fermented sausages prepared by inoculation with different starter cultures were analyzed for their physicochemical characteristics. Three types of fermented sausages were processed separately, without starter culture (control), with a commercial culture mix, and culture mix plus Lactobacillus plantarum (LP). On proximate analysis, two inoculated sausages showed an increase in moisture and fat contents (p<0.05). The inoculated sausages showed lower hardness and gumminess values (p<0.05) than control. The combination of starter culture with LP displayed the lowest chewiness and cohesiveness values and showed a more intensive red color (p<0.05). Two inoculated batches showed significantly lower pH values and water activity than control, in accordance with the increase in lactic acid bacteria (p<0.05). The inoculated sausages reduced the extent of lipid oxidation (p<0.05) and induced an increase in lauric acid, linoleic acid, eicosadienoic acid, and arachidonic acid, as well as they had a higher polyunsaturated fatty acid content and ratio of n-6 and n-3 fatty acids (p<0.05). The addition of LP to the starter culture in a suitable combination resulted in a positive effect on the physicochemical and microbiological attributes of fermented sausages.
In Western countries, kimchi, the Korean traditional fermented cabbage, is considered to be a healthy. However, it is one of the main sources of the high sodium content of the Korean diet. In order to decrease the sodium content, we manufactured a low-sodium kimchi (LK, salinity 1.0%) and 4 additional low-sodium kimchi starters in which each of 4 lactic acid bacteria (Lb. sakei 1, Lb. sakei 2, Lb. palntarum and W. koreensis) were added. The LKL1 to LKL4 samples were prepared by adding 4 single LAB starters, each with an inoculum size of 106 CFU/g, when the cabbage was mixed with kimchi sauce. The kimchi starters were fermented at 10℃ until reaching 0.5% acidity, and then stored at -1.5℃ until reaching 0.75% acidity. The pH and acidity of the starter kimchi changed more rapidly in the early phase of fermentation (up to 0.75% acidity) than control low-sodium kimchi. After the acidity of the kimchi starters reached 0.75% it remained constant. As the fermentation progressed, the total aerobic and lactic acid bacteria concentrations in the kimchi starter with added Lb. sakei 1 were the same as in the control low-sodium kimchi. The low-sodium kimchi fermentation of the kimchi starter with added Lb. palntarum progressed differently due to a difference in acid resistance. The kimchi starter with added Lb. sakei 2 had an overall liking score that was slightly higher than that of the control low-sodium kimchi due to a lower off-flavor
The purpose of this study is to evaluate quality characteristics of the Cheonggukjang produced using rice straw-derived Bacillus cereus free starter culture (RiBS1). The Cheonggukjang was prepared in 0.1 and 1.0% inoculum concentrations of starter culture and fermented from 12 hr to 72 hr at 40 and 50℃. Amino-nitrogen contents after 48 hr fermentation were 559.6~590.2 mg% and 393.8~494.0 mg% at 40 and 50℃, respectively. Sensory evaluation showed that the Cheonggukjang fermented using RiBS1 starter for 48 hr at 50℃ was better than the control. And we inspected on B. cereus and biogenic amine in the Cheonggukjang produced using RiBS1 starter. As a results, B. cereus was not detected and histamine and tyramine of biogenic amine were 5.53 ± 0.13 ~ 39.96 ± 0.62 mg/ kg. This research results showed that rice straw-derived B. cereus free starter culture (RiBS1) will be produce the Cheonggukjang with good flavour and taste.
본 연구에서는 김치의 소금 함량을 낮추기 위해 유기산과 젖산 그리고 종균을 첨가하고 과일을 첨가하여 김치의 저염화와 동시에 미각증진 효과를 가져올 수 있는 저염김치를 개발하였다. 그리고 소금 농도와 발효온도를 달리하였을 때 저염김치의 품질특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 저염김치에 대한 이화학분석, 미생물학 분석, 그리고 관능적 특성에 대한 분석을 하였다. 저염김치의 pH 및 산도 변화는 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 온도가 높을수록 변화가 빠르게 나타났고, pH는 점차 감소하였으며, 산도는 증가하였는데, 특히 소금 농도가 낮을수록 pH가 낮았고, 산도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 저염김치의 염도 변화는 발효가 진행됨에 따라 작은 변화를 나타내었으나, 유의성 있는 증감을 나타내지 않았다. 환원당의 경우, 모든 처리구에서 비슷한 비율로 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 조직강도의 경우 저장기간이 길어짐에 따라 종균 첨가 여부 및 종류에 따라서 차이가 났음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 같은 소금 농도에서 저장온도에 따른 조직감 차이는 저장기간이 길어짐에 따라 현저한 차이를 나타내었다. 또한 저염김치의 미생물 결과 총균수의 경우, 저장기간 동안 농도와 균 첨가와 관계없이 총균이 증식함을 알 수 있었다. 저염김치의 관능평가 결과, 냄새, 짠맛과 전반적인 기호도에서 이형발효 종균을 첨가한 김치의 관능결과가 모두 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 종균과 유기산을 첨가하여 소금 함량을 낮춘 저염김치를 개발하였고, 저장온도에 따라 발효하는 동안 이화학, 미생물 그리고 관능적인 변화를 통해 적숙기를 파악하였다. 이 연구는 건강한 일반인, 당뇨와 고혈압 질환이 있는 환자들의 식이요법에 도움이 될 것이다.
This study evaluated the quality characteristics of rice-doenjang prepared with Aspergillus oryzae MD05 and Bacillus subtilis HJ18-4. The physicochemical characteristics of rice-doenjang prepared with three types of meju, such as grain type(Rice 1), disc shape(Rice 2), and brick shape(Rice 3), were compared. We determined amino and ammonia nitrogen contents, protease and amylase activities, reducing sugar content, and total aerobic counts and lactic acid bacteria counts. The amino nitrogen and reducing sugar contents in all meju types gradually increased during fermentation. The amino nitrogen contents reached 151.5~200.0 ㎎%. Rice 3 were had the highest levels among the 4 types of rice-doenjang. After 42 days of fermentation, amylase and protease activity of Rice 3 were 366.57 and 94.26 unit/g, respectively, which were the highest levels among the 4 types of rice-doenjang. The total aerobic bacteria counts were not changed during 42-day fermentation. This results suggest that high quality characteristics of brick-shaped meju(Rice 3) were better than those of the other meju preparations.
To produce rapidly the traditional Kanjang soy sauce-like product with rich flavors, lactic acid bacteria of Enterococcus spp. isolated from Chungkukjang was used as one of starter cultures. Among 119 Enterococcus spp., eight strains were selected by protease-secreting activities and identified as four E. faecium, three E. faecalis, and one E. gallinarium. The strains showed low resistances toward eight antibiotics and had no resistant genes to the vancomycin. Especially, E. faecium O24 was cultivated well on 5% NaCl medium that was selected for further study as the starter. E. faecium O24 grew well on the steamed soybean and the counts increased by ten times overnight, which produced mostly 80 mg% glutamic acid and aspartic acid as the seasoning amino acids on the product. Various organic acids including principal lactic acid were also produced. Flavors of maltol and guaiacol, typical soy-sauce flavor, were produced in the mixed cultures of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii and Candida versatilis. Therefore, E. faecium O24 could be a starter of soybean fermentation for soy sauce-like product with rich flavors rapidly.
양념에 Leu. mesenteroides, Lac. plantarum의 젖산균과 멸치액젓 첨가가 김치 양념의 대장균군 제어, 숙성촉진여부 및 관능적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Leu. mesenteroides과 젓갈을 첨가한 경우 초기 숙성이 촉진되나 후기 산패는 완만하였으며 Lac. plantarum의 첨가시에는 초기 숙성에는 큰 차이가 없고 후기 산패가 현저하게 진행되었다. 대장균군은 산도 0.80% 이상에서 사별되었는데 Leu. mesenteroides의 경우가 숙성이 촉진되어 보다 신속히 사멸시켰다. 총균수와 젖산균수는 초기에 starter 첨가구는 106 CFU/mL 정도인데 반해서 starter를 첨가하지 않은 처리구에서 총균수는 106 CFU/mL, 젖산균수가 104 CFU/mL 이었고 숙성 후에는 첨가군이 높은 수준을 유지하였다. 하지만 대체적으로 스타터의 첨가가 숙성 및 대장균에 크게 영향을 주지 못하는 경향으로 동일하게 나왔다. 관능적 특성에서는 Leu. mesenteroides 첨가구가 Lac. plantarum의 경우보다 우수하였다. 한편, 시판 겉절이 김치는 산도가 0.09~0.18%, pH 5.46~5.89, 총균수 2.2×106~3.1×107 CFU/ml, 젖산균수 2.1×104~6.6×105 CFU/ml, 대장균군수 1.8×104~7.1×105 CFU/ml, 염분 1.89%~2.51%으로 스타터 첨가 겉절이에 비해 pH와 염도를 제외한 품질 특성에서 전반적으로 낮은 값을 나타냈다.
