Abstract

Citrus peel extract was prepared using 70% ethanol solution by two extraction conditions (20$^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours and 85$^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours). The effect of gamma-irradiation on the changes of physiological activity also investigated at 0, 5, 10 and 20 kGy of absorbed doses. Color characteristics, DPPH radical scavenging, tyrosinase inhibition and nitrite scavenging activities of the extracts were measured at 41$^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Color values were different by extraction methods at the initial stage, which heat-extracted sample had lower L$\^$*/ - but higher a$\^$*/ - and b$\^$*/ -values than those extracted at room temperature. Irradiation changed color of the extract lighter by increasing Hunter color L$\^$*/ - and a$\^$*/ -values. DPPH radical scavenging, tyrosinase inhibition and nitrite scavenging activities were not affected by either extraction methods or irradiation but significantly reduced by storage time. Therefore, when the cost-effective extraction methods is selected, the citrus peel extracts, which is a major byproduct in citrus processing, could be used as a functional material in various applications.

가공 과정에서 대량 발생하는 폐기물 중 하나인 귤피를 천연 기능성 소재로 개발하기 위한 기초자료를 마련하고자 추출방법을 달리한 귤피 추출물의 생리활성을 확인하였다. 또한 감마선 조사에 의한 귤피 추출물의 생리활성 변화에 관하여도 관찰하였다. 정치추출의 경우 열수추출에 비해 초기 L$^{*}$ 값이 낮은 반면 a$^{*}$ 값과 b$^{*}$ 값이 높았으나 저장기간 또는 감마선 조사에 의해 차이가 없어졌으며, 감마선 조사선량의 증가에 따라 귤피추출액의 L$^{*}$ 값과 a$^{*}$ 값은 증가하였으며, b$^{*}$ 값은 감소하였다. 전자공여능, tyrosinase 저해효과, nitrite 소거능은 감마선 조사에 의해 영향을 받지 않았으나 저장기간동안 이러한 생리활성이 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한 추출방법(열수 vs 정치)에 따른 귤피 추출물의 생리활성의 차이는 나타나지 않았으며 감마선 조사는 천연물 추출물의 생리활성에 영향을 주지 않음을 확인하였다. 그러므로 경제적인 추출방법을 선택한다면 감귤가공후 폐자원인 귤피를 다양한 용도의 기능성 소재로 활용할 수 있다고 판단된다.
