조랭이 떡에 존재하는 자연균총 유전자 군집분석 및 천연유래 프로피온산 생성능 분석

초록

This study was conducted to analyze the microbial community and the propionic acid production ability of natural microflora in the rice cakes. Genetic analysis of the natural microflora in Jorangyi rice cake was performed to select propionic acid - producing bacteria. Selected propionic acid-producing bacteria were cultivated in TSB(tryptic soy broth) supplemented with glucose, and their growth characteristics were analyzed by temperature and production of propionic acid was analyzed by gas chromatography(GC-FID). Linearity, detection limit, quantitative limit, and recovery rate were measured to verify the propionic acid assay. A total of 98 microbial strains were detected from microflora of Joraengyi rice cake that grew after the expiration of the shelf life. Lactobacillus casei group accounted for 50.48% and Lactobacillus buchneri was 29.60%. Propionic acid - producing bacteria were Propionibacterium thoenii, P. cyclohexanicum, Propionibacterium_uc, P. jensenii, and P. freudenreichii. Natural bacteria and Lactobacillus spp. did not produce propionic acid during 14 days but P. cyclohexanicum, P. freudenreichii subsp. Shermanii, P. thoenii and P. jesenii produced 263.47μg / mL, 338.90μg / mL, 325.43μg / mL and 222.17 μg / mL during 4 days and 2,462.02 and 2,904.78, 2,220.64, 3,519.17 μg/mL during 14 days . As a result of this study, it was affirmed that the natural microflora of Joraengyi rice cake during storage can produce propionic acid from natural sources even if a high concentration of propionic acid is not intentionally added. Because of characteristics of rice cake composed of starch and glucose. This study will be used as a recognition criterion to detect natural preservatives such as propionic acid in starchy foods such as rice cakes and as a reference standard safety management data.
