Abstract

This study was performed to investigate the optimum process conditions for manufacturing yeast extract from waste brewer's yeast using various enzymes. Contents of IMP, GMP, free amino acids, and crude protein of yeast extracts were measured by enzymes treatment. Crude protein contents of yeast extracts subjected to cell wall digestion enzyme treatment were 21.1, 33.6, and 28.0% for the control grouup, glucanase (0.5%, 12 h), and tunicase (1%, 18 h), respectively. Crude protein contents of yeast extracts subjected to protease treatment were 22.0, 30.8, and 29.8% for control group, bromelin (1%, 3 h), and protamex (1%, 3 h), respectively. Crude protein content of yeast extract subjected to glucanase and protamex mixed treatment was 34.4%. The total contents of IMP and GMP of yeast extracts subjected to G+P+A (glucanase+phosphodiesterase+adenyldeminase) and G+Pro+P+A (glucanase+protamex+phosphodiesterase+adenyldeaminase) treatments were 1,066 and 1,047 mg/100 g, respectively. The content of free amino acids of yeast extract was the highest (2,302 mg/100 g) in G+Pro+P+A treatment. Optimum concentration and process condition of enzyme treatment to obtain yeast extract with high IMP, GMP, and free amino acid content were in the order of glucanase (0.5%, 12 h), protamex (1%, 3h), phosphodiesterase (0.1%, 3 h) and adenyldeaminase (1%, 1.5 h) treatments.

정미성이 높은 효모 추출물을 얻고자 각종 효소의 사용에 대한 최적 조합 및 공정법을 알아보기 위하여 맥주 폐효모박을 각종 효소로 처리하여 효모추출물 중의 정미성분(IMP, GMP 및 유리아미노산)을 측정하여 비교, 분석하였다. Glucanase(0.5%) 처리에 의한 효모추출물중의 조단백질 함량은 33.6% 이었다. Tunicase(1%) 28.0% 와 무처리구 21.1%에 비해 최고 1.6배의 증가를 보였다. 단백질 분해효소처리에 의한 조단백질의 함량은 bromelin(1%), protamex(1%) 처리에서 각각 30.8%, 29.8%로 무처리구에 비해 최고 1.4배의 증가를 보였다. 효소 복합처리에 의한 상승효과는 glucanase(0.5%)+protamex(1%) 처리구에서 조단백질의 함량이 34.4%로 나타나 glucanase 단독처리구의 33.6%보다 높은 함량을 나타냈다. IMP+GMP 총함량은 glucanase + phophodiesterase + adenyldeaminase (G+P+A) 혼합 처리구에서 1,066 mg/100 g, glucanase + ptotamex + phophodiesterase + adenyldeaminase (G+Pro+P+A) 혼합 처리구에서는 1,047 mg/100 g으로 비슷하였다. 유리아미노산의 함량은 protamex가 첨가된 G+Pro+P+A 혼합처리구에서 2,302 mg/100 g으로 가장 높게 나타났다. 따라서 IMP, GMP 및 유리아미노산의 함량을 모두 고려해 볼 때 세포벽 분해효소 (gulcanase 0.5%, 12시간), 단백질 분해효소 (protamex 1%, 3시간), 핵산 분해효소 (phosphodiesterase 0.1%, 3시간) 및 핵산 전이효소 (adenyldeaminase 1%, 1.5시간)를 순차적으로 적용시켜 가수분해시키는 것이 효모 추출물의 정미성을 높이는 최적의 효소 복합 사용공정으로 판단되었다.
