Comparison of the Chemical Compositions of Korean and Chinese Safflower (Carthamus tinctorious L.) Seed

한국산과 중국산 홍화종실의 화학적 성분 비교

The chemical compositions of korean and Chinese safflower (Carthamus tinctorious L.) seed were compared in this study. The proximate compositions were 0.73 and 0.05% of moisture, 19.74 and 18.82% of crude protein, 15.47 and 14.61% of crude fat, 3.78 and 3.87% of crude ash, 14.53 and 10.46% of crude fiber, 46.49 and 52.23% of N-free extracts in the non-roasted safflower seed (NRS) and roasted safflower seed (RS), respectively. Crude fat contents in non-roasted chinese safflower seed (NRCS) and roasted chinese safflower seed (RCS) were 33.30 and 31.22%, which were higher than those of NRS and RS. Unsaturated fatty acid in NRS was 83.2% and 90.9% in NRCS. Linoleic acid was the most predominant fatty acid in NRS (74.0%) and NRCS (74.2%). Sucrose (216.5 mg/100 g) and raffinose (117.5 mg/100 g) were major free sugars in NRS, but sucrose, glucose, fructose and raffinose were in NRCS. Glutamic acid, aspatic acid and arginine were major in total amino acids. 24 kinds of free amino acid were detected in NRS and 11 kinds in RS. Total essential amino acid in NRS ($28.0\;{\mu}g/100\;g$) was higher than that in NRCS ($9.2\;{\mu}g/100\;g$). The organic acids in safflower seed were composed of formic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, oxalic acid and fumaric acid. The content of vitamin E $({\alpha}-tocopherol)$ in NRS and NRCS were 10.5 mg/100 g, 6.2 mg/100 g, NRCS and RCS were 12.8 mg/100 g, 9.4 mg/100 g, respectively. Total carotenoid content in NRCS was $452.0\;{\mu}g/100\;g$ and it was higher than in NRS. The major minerals of safflower seed were K, P, Ca, Mg.

한국산 볶음처리 하지 않은 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실은 수분 8.73%, 0.05%, 조지방 15.47%, 14.61%, 조회분 3.78%, 3.87%, 조단백질 19.74%, 18.82%, 조섬유 14.53%, 10.46%, 무질소물 46.49%, 52.23%로 분석되었고, 그 중 조지방함량은 중국산 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실의 33.30%, 31.22%와는 상당한 차이를 보였고, 이것은 원료의 구분방법의 척도로 생각된다. 한국산 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실에는 linoleic acid가 74.0%, 69.0%로 높은 함유량을 나타내어 홍화종실의 중요 지방산임을 확인할 수 있었다. 홍화종실의 유리당은 sucrose, raffinose, glucose, fructose 등이 분리되었고 그 중 scurose의 함량이 대부분을 차지하였다. 또한 홍화종실의 주된 총아미노산은 glutamic acid, aspartic acid 및 arginie등으로 확인되었다. 홍화종실의 유리아미노산은 한국산 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실은 24종, 11종, 중국산 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실은 24종, 15종으로 분리되었고, lysine, isoleucine등 필수아미노산의 함량은 한국산 홍화종실이 높게 함유하였다. 홍화종실의 주된 유기산으로는 formic acid, succinic acid, malic acid, oxalic acid, furmaric acid 등이 분리확인 되었고, 홍화종실의 비타민류로 vitamin E(tocopherol), $vitamin\;B_{1}$, $vitamin\;B_{2}$등이 분석 되었고, 그 중 ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ 함량은 한국산 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실은 10.5 mg/100 g, 6.2 mg/100 g이고, 중국산 홍화종실과 볶음홍화종실은 12.8 mg/100 g, 9.4 mg/100 g으로 다량 함유하고 있어 식물성 천연항산화제로써의 가치를 확인하였다. 홍화종실의 carotenoid 함량은 중국산 홍화종실이 $452.0\;{\mu}g/\;100\;g$로 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 홍화종실의 주된 무기질로는 K, P, Ca, Mg 등이 확인되었다.
