Abstract
A Korean commercial sweet rice drink "Sikhye" showed sucrose, fructose, glucose, maltose, limit dextrin and various size of maltooligosaccharides in HPLC and TLC analysis. Commercial Sikhye was found to contain 0.09% of limit dextrin and 0.2% of rice residue. Limit dextrin in commercial Sikhye showed both signal of $\alpha$-1,4- and $\alpha$-1,6-glucosidic linkage with its estimation ratio of 15:1 by 1H-NMR analysis. This limit dextrin was hydrolyzed to produce various size of maltooligosaccarides with more longer chain than that of traditional Sikhye by pullulanase. Limit dextrin was digested wit enzymes(30units/ml) of $\alpha$-amylase, $\alpha$-glucosidase and glucoamylase from Aspergillus awamori, sweet potato $\beta$-amylase and human salivary $\alpha$-amylase at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, respectively. Hydrolysis rates of these amylases on it were higher than in case of traditional sikhye. $\alpha$-Glucosidase plus human salivary $\alpha$-amylase hydrolyzed it to 61.3%. Hydrolysis rates of these amylases on rice residue were lower than that of traditional Sikye. These results suggest that limit dextrin in commercial Sikhye is less effective than isomaltooligosaccharides in traditional Sikhye as a growth factor for Bifidobacterium while rice residue in commercial Sikhye is more effective than that in traditional Sikhye as dietary fiber.ary fiber.
시판 식혜에는 설탕과 프룩토오스, 글루코오스, 말토오스 및 여러 사이즈의 말토올리고당, 한계덱스트린이 함유되어 있다. 그 중 한계덱스트린은 0.09%, 밥알은 0.2%를 나타냈다. 1H-NMR 분석 결과, 한계덱스트린은 $\alpha$-1,4-결합 및 $\alpha$-1,6-결합이 15:1의 비율을 나타냈다. Pullulanase 처리로, 말토오스에서 글루코오스 10잔기 이상의 말토올리고당까지 다양한 분포를 나타냈다. 한계덱스트린은 여러 아미라아제 처리 결과, 전통식혜보다 가수분해율이 훨씬 높았다. $\alpha$-글루코시다아제와 타액 $\alpha$-아밀라아제를 공동 작용시킨 경우는 62% 가수분해되었다. 그러나, 밥알의 가수분해율이 매우 낮았다. 그래서 전통 식혜에 비해 한계덱스트린의 비피두스 인자로서의 효과는 적고, 밥알의 식이섬유 작용은 커졌다.
