Relative Effectiveness of BHA and Ascorbic Acid in Retarding the Rancidity Development of Potato Chips Stored in Various Conditions

여러 조건하(條件下)에서 저장(貯藏)된 감자튀김의 산패(酸敗)에 있어서 BHA와 Ascorbic Acid의 상대적(相對的) 억제효과(抑制效果)에 대(對)하여

In the present study, the relative effectiveness of BHA, ascorbic acid, and BHA+ascorbic acid on the rancidity development of potato chips in various conditions were examined. BHA, ascorbic acid, and their mixture (BHA 0.05%, As. A 0.1%, and BHA 0.05%+As. A 0.1% relative to the weight of the potato chips) were dissolved respectively in 95% ethyl alcohol and incorporated to potato chips in the form of atomized mist. When the potato chips were stored in a dark place at $33.0{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$, BHA was very effective in retarding the rancidity development of the potato chips. Ascorbic acid showed some antioxidant activity, but it was less effective than BHA. When BHA and ascorbic acid were used together, the antioxidant activity of the mixture appeared to be primarily due to BHA. Irradiation of direct sunlight to the potato chips, which were covered with coloress transparent polypropylene films, reduced the antioxidant activity of BHA incorporated to them. Ascorbic acid appeared to lose its antioxidant activity completely under the same condition. BHA retained a considerable degree of antioxidant activity when yellow transparent polypropylene films were used to cover the potato chips. Ascorbic acid, however, kept little antioxidant activity even in this condition.

BHA (0.05%), ascorbic acid (0.1%) 그리고. BHA (0.05%)+ascorbic acid (0.1%)를 각각 첨가시킨 감자튀김을 여러 조건하에서 저장할 때 이들 BHA, As.A 및 BHA+As. A의 상대적인 산패억제 효과를 비교 관찰하였다. 즉 감자튀김을 암소(暗所)에서 $33{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$로 저장하였을 때는 감자튀김의 산패억제에 대한 BHA의 효과는 매우 컸다. Ascorbic acid도 상당한 항산화 효과를 보였으나 BHA 보다는 약하였으며, 한편 BHA와 ascorbic acid를 동시에 처리하였을 때에는 그 효과는 BHA 단독의 경우와 거의 같았다. 투명, 무색 Polypropylene film으로 덮은 감자튀김을 하루 6시간씩 일사광선에 조사(照射)시키면서 저장하였을 때는 BHA의 항산화력은 상당히 감소되었으며, 한편 ascorbic acid의 항산화력은 거의 완전히 상실되었다. 그러나 황색으로 착색된 투명 polypropylene film을 대신 사용하였을 경우에는 BHA는 그 항산화력을 상당히 잘 유지하였다. 한편, ascorbic acid는 이와 같은 조건하에서도 그 항산화력을 거의 상실하였다.
