SOD 유사활성에서는 DSFBF 청국장 68.48%로 Control 34.01%에 비해 2배 이상의 superoxide anion 제거능이 높은 물질을 함유하고 있음을 예상할 수 있다. Hydroxyl radical 소거능에서는 DSFAF 청국장 96.87%, DSFBF 청국장 96.40%, Control 95.73%로 90% 이상의 높은 hydroxyl radical 소거능을 보였다. Relative antioxidative effects 저해활성은 DSFBF 청국장 47.92%, Control 47.06%로 비슷한 결과를 나타내었다. 본 시료 추출물에서의 sesamin, sesamolin을 HPLC를 통해 정량한 결과 sesamin은 DSFAF 청국장 2.41±0.14 ㎎/g, DSFBF 청국장 3.04±0.21 ㎎/g로 DSFBF 청국장이 비교적 높은 함량을 보였다. Sesamolin 또한 DSFAF 청국장 1.12±0.07 ㎎/g, DSFBF 청국장 1.36±0.09 ㎎/g으로 Control과 DSFAF 청국장에 비해 DSFBF 청국장이 생리활성 및 유효성분에서 더 높은 함량을 나타냈다. 기름 제조 후 부산물로 생성되는 참깨탈지박은 청국장에 새로운 기능성을 부여하는 기초 자료는 물론, 앞으로 우수한 기능성식품으로서의 가능성이 시사된다.
This study is on the effect of oil seed by-products added to Chungkukjang. For this, we designed three cases: Chungkukjang was added in with defatted sesame flour before fermented (DSFBF), added with defatted sesame flour after fermented (DSFAF) and with no adding (control). In each case, the common ingredients and the active antioxidant ingredients were examined and compared and the effects were analyzed. According to microanalysis result, carbohydrate content Chungkukjang the DSFAF 24.97%, control 23.86%, DSFBF Chungkukjang 20.21% as compared to control and Chungkukjang DSFAF relatively low carbohydrate content. The moisture contents in DSFBF (55.98%) or DSFAF (52.83%) were higher than that in control (48.89%). Chungkukjang crude ashes in DSFBF (1.48%) or DSFAF (2.41%) were much lower than in control (6.45%). The proportions of crude lipid in DSFBF (3.30%) or DSFAF (3.93%) were higher than in control (1.77%) by about 2%. As for crude protein, the percentage in DSFAF (15.86%) was lower than that of DSFBF (19.03%) or of control (19.03%). There was no meaningful difference in biological activity measurement as total phenolic contents were 1.26 ㎎/mL in DSFBF, 1.14 ㎎/mL in DSFAF and 1.26 ㎎/mL in control. But electron donating ability was meaningfully more active in DSFBF (21.30%) than in control (20.24%). The superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity in DSFBF (68.48%) was twice higher than in control (34.01%), which may imply that DSFBF contain some ingredients that can scavenge superoxide anion radically. In hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, DSFAF scores 96.87%, which is the highest with 96.40% in DSFBF and 95.73% in control. Relative antioxidative effects in DSFBF was 47.92%, which is comparable to 47.06% in control. As a result of extraction and quantitative HPLC analysis of sesamin and sesamolin extracted from the samples, DSFBF contained 3.04±0.21 ㎎g/g of sesamin, which is meaningfully higher than 2.41±0.14 ㎎/g in DSFAF. Content of sesamolin was higher in DSFBF (1.36±0.09 ㎎/g) than DSFAF (1.12±0.07 ㎎/g) or in control. We can conclude that biologically active and effective ingredients could be found more in DSFBF than in DSFAF or in control. This study conveys not only the meaning that oil seed by-products can be used as an ingredient for making Chungkukjang functional food, but also the possibility that oil seed by-products themselves could become excellent functional food.
