홍국으로부터의 monacolin K 생성 및 추출 최적화

The Optimal Condition for the Production and Extraction of Monacolin K from Red-Koji

초록

Cholesterol 생합성의 저해, 혈압강하 등의 생리기능을 갖는 물질로 알려진 Monascus속 곰팡이의 대사산물인 monacolin K의 최적 생성 및 추출조건에 대해 검토하였다. 고체와 액체 배양한 홍국균 종균을 콩, 밀, 보리, 찹쌀, 백미에 배양 시 백미에 고체 배양한 종균을 접종한 경우의 monacolin K 생성량이 가장 많았다(0.35g/100g). 또한 홍국을 고온에서 장시간 건조하여 수분을 제거함에 따라 monacolin K의 수율도 증가하였으며, 홍국균 사멸과 monacolin K 함량을 고려시 $80^{\circ}C$에서 60분 건조가 최적 조건이었다. Monacolin K는 유기용매 가용성으로 80% ethanol에서 가장 높은 수율을 나타냈다. 한편 홍국 분말을 인위적으로 1분간 흔들어 추출한 경우와 초음파로 균체를 파쇄하고 0-24시간 방치하면서 추출한 경우의 monacolin K 함량은 거의 유사하였다. 홍국 분말과 80% ethanol간의 비율을 1:9로 추출 시 monacolin K 함량이 가장 많았으며, 홍국 색소량과는 비례관계를 보였다.

The optimal condition for the production and extraction of monacolin K was reported. HPLC was used to determine monacolin K a kind of metabolite of Monascus from red-koji made of Monascus purpureus CBS 281.34. After culturing Monascus in solid and liquid media at $30^{\circ}C$ for 10 days, each of these were inoculated with soybean, wheat, barley, waxy rice, and rice and cultivated at $30^{\circ}C$ for 11 days. The production of monacolin K was the highest(0.35g/100g) when cultured with rice. The yield of monacolin K in red-koji increased with drying temperature and time according to the removal of water. Considering monacolin K content and the degree of death of Monascus, red-koji was dried at $80^{\circ}C$ for 60 min. Although monacolin K in red-koji was mostly extracted by 80% ethanol, there was no difference in monacolin K between shaking for 1 min and extraction for $0{\sim}24$ hr after sonication for 7 min. The extracted yield of monacolin K was the highest when the ratio of red-koji and 80% ethanol was 1:9. Moreover, the production of monacolin K appeared to be parallel with that of the pigment.
