Changes of Nitrosamine-Related-Compounds by Salt Concentration and Nitrate Content during the Korean Native Soysauce Fermentation

재래(在來) 간장덧 숙성중(熟成中) 식염농도(食鹽濃度)와 Nitrate함량(含量)에 따른 Nitrosamine 관련물질(關聯物質)의 변화(變化)

This study was undertaken in order to research formation of nitrosamine and its related compounds by salt concentration and nitrate content during Korean native soysauce fermentation. The results from measuring the changes of nitrite and dimethylamine content can be summerized as follows. As the nitrate content in used water was getting higher and the salt concentration was getting lower, the soysauce fermentation was abnormal. As the salt concentration was getting higher, the reduction of nitrate and formation of nitrite were delayed. But whether the nitrate content in used water was higher or not, the nitrite was continuously remained. An addition of ascorbic acid restrained the reduction of nitrate, and simultaneously, it could eliminate the nitrite effectively. As the nitrate content in used water, was getting higher, the content of dimethylamine was getting lower. Nitrosodimethylamine was detected from 0 to 261.34 ppb.

재래식(在來式) 간장에서 발암성(發癌性) 화합물(化合物)인 nitrosamine의 생성가능성의 규명(糾明)을 위한 연구(硏究)의 일환(一環)으로 식염농도(食鹽濃度)와 $NO_3-N$의 함량(含量)에 따른 nitrosamine의 전구물질(前驅物質)인 $NO_3-N$와 dimethylamine의 변화(變化)를 검토(檢討)하였던 바 그 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. 1. 간장덧의 효효(酵酵)는 용수중(用水中) $NO_3-N$의 함량(含量)이 높을수록 식염농도(食鹽濃度)가 낮을수록 비정상적(非正常的)이었다. 2. 식염농도(食鹽濃度)가 높을수록 $NO_3-N$의 환원(還元)과 $NO_2-N$의 생성(生成)은 지연되었으나 용수(用水)의 $NO_3-N$ 함량(含量)의 고저(高低)에는 관계없이 장기간 $NO_2-N$가 잔존(殘存)하였다. 3. Ascorbic acid의 첨가(添加)는 $NO_3-N$의 환원(還元)을, $NO_2-N$의 생성(生成)을 효과적(效果的)으로 억제(抑制)하였다. 4. Dimethylamine의 함량(含量)은 용수중(用水中) $NO_3-N$의 함량(含量)이 높을수록 낮은 경향(傾向)을 보였다. 5. NDMA는 $0{\sim}261.34\;ppb$가 검출(檢出)되었다.
