Volatile Aroma Compounds in Ice Cream Prepared from Lactic Fermented Egg White Food Added with Cream

크림첨가 난백젖산균발효식품으로 만든 아이스크림의 휘발성향기성분

Egg white mix (EWM) added with different ratios of cream $(10{\sim}15%,v/v)$ was fermented with Lactobacillus acidophilus (KCTC 2182) and changes of volatile aroma compounds during fermentation for 21 h were investigated. The amount of volatile aroma compounds between pre-fermented EWM, 15 h-fermented EWM, soft ice cream prepared from fermented EWM, and hard ice cream prepared from soft ice cream was compared. The results were as follows: (1) The amount of ethanol increased gradually until 9 h and increased rapidly to maximum value at 12 h and then decreased rapidly. The amount of acetone at 12 h was slightly higher, but it was not changed markedly during fermentation. Diacetyl was detected at 3 h and increased gradually to maximum value until 15 h and then decreased slightly. The amount of butanol was not changed markedly during fermentation. Acetoin was detected at 3 h and increased rapidly until 15 h and then increased gradually. (2) The amount of acetone, ethanol, diacetyl and butanol of pre-fermented sample, 15 h-fermented sample, soft ice cream and hard ice cream increased in proportion to the amount of cream added to EWM. However, the amount of butanol was relatively constant regardless of added cream ratio. The amount of volatile aroma compounds of soft ice cream was higher than that of other samlples, while that of pre-fermented sample was lower than that of other samples. Diacetyl and acetoin were not detected in pre-fermented sample.

본 연구에서는 크림이 첨가된 난백혼합액(egg white mix)에 Lactobacillus acidophilus(KCTC 2182)를 접종하고 21시간 발효시키면서 휘발성향기성분의 경시적인 변화를 관찰하고, 발효전 시료, 15시간-발효시료, 소프트아이스크림, 하드아이스크림의 휘발성 향기성분의 함량을 각각 비교분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 발효 21시간동안 휘발성향기성분의 경시적인 변화를 보면, ethanol은 9시간까지는 완만하게 증가하다가 12시간에 급격히 증가하여 최대치에 도달한 후 다시 급격히 감소하였으며, acetone은 12시간에 다소 높았으나 전반적으로 큰 차이가 없었으며, diacetyl은 3시간에 처음 검지되어 완만하게 증가하고 15시간에 최대치에 도달한 후 다소 감소하였으며, butanol은 발효 중에 비교적 일정한 수치를 유지하였고, acetoin은 3시간에 처음 검지되어 15시간까지 급격히 증가하고 그 후에는 완만한 증가를 보였다. 시료별로 휘발성향기성분의 함량의 차이를 보면, acetone, ethanol, diacetyl, acetoin은 크림의 첨가비율이 증가할수록 휘발성향기성분의 함량도 증가하였으며, butanol은 크림의 첨가비율에 관계없이 비교적 일정한 수치를 유지하였다. 휘발성향기성분의 함량은 소프트아이스크림이 가장 높고, 발효전 시료가 가장 낮았으며, diacetyl과 acetoin은 발효전 시료에서는 탐지되지 않았다.
