Abstract

The color intensity (Absorbance at 490nm) and the antioxidant effects of absolute and 90% ethanol extracts obtained from a Maillard-type browning reaction mixture (0. 5M glucose and 0. 5M glycine mixture, heated at $100^{\circ}C$) were determined. The color intensity of the absolute and 90% ethanol extracts were compared with the length of reaction time and the antioxidant effects of the extracts of both types were compared one another. The results obtained are as follows. 1. The color intensity of the absolute ethanol extracts remained almost unchanged as the browning reaction proceeded. The color intensity of the 90% ethanol extracts appeared to increase nearly in proportion to the length of reaction time. 2. The absolute and the 90% ethanol extracts seemed to possess significant antioxidant activity on the autoxidation of an edible soybean oil. which was kept at $45{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ for 21 days. It was noteworthy that the absolute ethanol extracts showed stronger antioxidant effects than those of the 90% ethanol extracts, which contained a far greater amount of brown-colored pigments. Since the PVs of the controls in both groups, after the end of the storage period, did not differ much from one another, the possibility of residual water playing some prooxidant role in the substrates containing the 90% ethanol extracts should be ruled out. Extracts of both types obtained at earlier stages of the brownig reaction demonstrated less but comparable antioxidant activity to that of extracts taken at later stages of the reaction. 3. The results of the present study appeared to suggest that the effective antioxidant compounds, produced in the Maillard-type browning reaction, were probably intermediate products such as reductones formed at fairly earlier stages of the browning reaction.

본실험(本實驗) 에서는 여러 진행단계(進行段階)에서 있는 Maillard 형(形) 갈색화(褐色化) 반응물(反應物)에서 얻어지는 absolute 및 90% ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들의 색깔의 강도(强度)와 갈색화(褐色化) 반응시간(反應時間)과의 관계(關係) 이상(以上)의 추출물(抽出物)들의 식용유지(食用油脂)에 대한 항산화효과(抗酸化效果)의 비교검토(比較檢討), 그리고 以上의 추출물(抽出物)들의 색깔의 강도(强度)와 이들의 항산화효과(抗酸化效果)사이의 관계(關係)들을 규명(糾明)코저 하였다. 그 결과(結果)는 다음과 같다. 1. 갈색화(褐色化) 반응액(反應液)의 absolute ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들의 색깔은 갈색화(褐色化) 반응시간(反應時間)에 관계(關係)없이, 즉 갈색화(褐色化) 반응액자체(反應液自體)의 갈색화(褐色化)에 관계(關係)없이 거의 무색(無色)에 가까웠으며, 한편 90% ethanol 추출물(抽出物)은 반응시간(反應時間)에 따라 증가(增加)하였으며, 그 색깔의 강도(强度)는 반응시간(反應時間)에 거의 비례(比例)하였다. 2. Absolute 및 90% ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들은 다같이 식용대두유(食用大豆油)의 자동산화(自動酸化)에 대해서 상당(相當)한 항산화효과(抗酸化效果)를 보여 주었다. 한편, 두 형태(形態)의 추출물(抽出物)들에 있어서는 absolute ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들이 90% ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들보다 전체적(全體的)으로 훨씬 강(强)한 항산화효과(抗酸化效果)를 보여주었다. 3. 갈색색소(褐色色素)의 함량(含量)이 분명(分明)히 적은 absolute ethyl alcohol 추출물(抽出物)들이 다량(多量)의 갈색색소(褐色色素)를 함유하고 있는 90% ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들보다 훨씬 더 강(强)한 항산화력(抗酸化力)을 표시(表示)한 사실(事實), 그리고 90% ethanol 추출물(抽出物)들의 항산화효과(抗酸化效果)가 그 색깔의 강도(强度)의 증가(增加)에 따라 증가(增加)하지 않았던 사실(事實)들은 적어도 본실험(本實驗)에서는 반응(反應)중에 형성(形成)된 갈색색소(褐色色素)들이 이상(以上)의 추출물(抽出物)들의 항산화작용(抗酸化作用)에 크게 관여(關與)하지 않고 있음을 시사하고 있는듯 하다.
