Abstract

Five oats and 17 barley cultivars were ground, sieved (105, 210, 300, 425, 600 ${\mu}m$) and we have analyzed the ${\beta}-glucan$ contents to obtain grain fractions. The milling yields ranged $65.1{\sim}89.7%$ for barley and $53.4{\sim}73.5%$ for oat cultivars. Total ${\beta}-glucan$ contents of barley and oats become higher than those of the flour increasing the particle size. The soluble and insoluble ${\beta}-glucan$ contents of them were especially higher in medium and coarse particle size fractions. The contents of total, soluble and insoluble ${\beta}-glucan$ of barley were 1.5, 1.7 and 2.0 times higher than the whole flour before sieving and these content of oats were 2.1, 1.6 and 2.0 times, respectively. In this study, larger particle size would enrich the ${\beta}-glucan$ and it is desirable to consider the best particle size range to enrich the ${\beta}-glucan$ level, the water-solubility of the ${\beta}-glucan$ as well as cereal varieties.

국내산 보리 17종과 귀리 5종을 정맥하고 분쇄한 후 $105{\sim}600\;{\mu}m$ 범위의 입도로 분획하여 총, 수용성 및 불용성(1-3),(1-4)-${\beta}$-D-glucan(${\beta}$-glucan)의 함량을 분석하였다. 정맥시 보리의 알곡비율은 65.1${\sim}$89.7% 범위였고, 귀리의 알곡비율은 53.4${\sim}$73.5% 범위로 보리가 높게 나타났다. 입도별 분획에 따른 보리와 귀리의 총 ${\beta}-glucan$ 함량은 보리와 귀리 모두 입자가 커질수록 증가하는 경향을 보였으나, 수용성 ${\beta}-glucan$ 함량은 중간 입도 범위에서 높은 경향을 보였고, 불용성 ${\beta}-glucan$ 함량은 큰 입도 범위에서 높은 경향을 보였다. 총, 수용성 및 불용성 ${\beta}-glucan$ 함량은 원료분말 일 때 보다 보리는 1.5배, 1.7배 및 2.0배 증가하였고, 귀리는 각각 2.1배, 1.6배 및 2.0배 증가하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 ${\beta}-glucan$을 기능성 식품제조 원료로 활용하기 위해서는 곡류의 품종과 목적하는 ${\beta}-glucan$의 용해 특성을 고려하여 최적 농축 입도 영역을 결정하는 것이 비교적 경제적이고 용이하게 많은 양의 ${\beta}-glucan$을 얻을 수 있는 효과적인 방법임을 알 수 있었다.
