Abstract

In order to investigate changes of flavor during food sterilization in retortable pluches, a model food system consisting of 50% chicken breast meat, 1% salt and 49% chicken stock was analyzed before and after retorting using GC and GC-MS. In the analysis of the volatile components collected by the nitrogen purge and trap technique before and after retorting, a total of 53 peaks were observed on chromatograms and 42 peaks were identified. Among the 42 peaks identified were 17 caused by aldehydes, 9 by hydrocarbons, 8 by alcohols, 6 by ketones, 1 by furan and 1 by terpene. Analysis of the data obtained from our model food system strongly suggested that the compounds responsible for retort flavor are 2-heptanone, 2-pentyl furan and various ketones.

레토르트 처리시 일어나는 휘발성분 변화를 관찰하고자 닭고기 50%, 식염 1%, 닭고기 육수 49%로 구성된 모형식품을 설정하고, 가열살균에 따른 휘발성분변화를 GC (gas chromatography)로 조사하고, GC-MS (mass spectrometry)로 각 GC peak의 휘발성분을 분석하였다 살균 전, 후의 모형식품에서 NPT (Nitrogen purge and trap)방법으로 휘발성분을 포집한 후 이를 분석한 결과 총 53개 peak가 검출되었고 그 중 42개 peak를 동정하였다. 동정된 42개 peak는 aldehyde류 17종, hydrocarbon류 9종, alcohol류 8종, ketone류 7종 및 furan과 terpene이 각 1종씩이었다. 살균에 따른 휘발성분의 변화량을 비교하고, 동정된 휘발성분의 향기특성 등을 고려해 볼 때 레토르트취에 관여하는 화합물은 2-heptanone, 2-pentyl furan 및 ketone류인 것으로 추정 되었다.
