Abstract

Chemical and flavor components of Bulro Kugi (Lycium chinense Mill) fruit leaf, and root were compared. Fructose and glucose were detected in fruit and leaf, and sucrose in root, respectively. Citrate was the highest among organic acids in fruits, and malate in leaf and root Capsaicin was detected in leaf and root. Volatile flavor compounds were extracted by simultaneous distillation and extraction method using Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus. Concentrated flavor extract was analysed, and 128 compounds, including 22 acids 15 alcohols, 12 aldehydes, 8 esters, 10 furans, 26 hydrocarbons, 4 phenols, 2 pyrroles, 1 pyrazine, and 28 miscellaneous components. were identified by GC and GC-MS. Main volatile compounds were hexadecanoic acid and 2-furancarboxaldehyde in hot-air dried fruit, hexadecanoic acid and 1-hexadecene in fresh fruit, 3, 7, 11, 15-tetranethyl-2-hexadecan-1-ol and hexadecanoir acid in leaf, and hexadecanoic acid in root.

불로 구기의 부위별 구기열매, 잎, 뿌리성분을 분석하였다. 당의 함량은 구기 열매와 구기잎에서는 fructose와 glucose만이 검출되었고, 구기뿌리에서는 sucrose의 함량이 대부분이었다. 유기산의 함량은 생구기 열매에는 citrate, 구기잎과 구기뿌리는 malate의 함량이 가장 높게 나왔으며 tartarate는 검출되지 않았다. Capsaicin은 구기 열매에서는 검출되지 않았고, 구기잎과 뿌리에서 각각 1.18mg/100g, 2.78mg/100g이 검출되었다. 불로 구기의 향기성분은 acids류는 22개, alcohol류는 15개, aldehyde류는 12개, ester류는 8개, furan류는 10개, hydrocarbon류는 26개, phenol류는 4개, pyrrole류는 2개, pyrazine은 1개, 그 외의 28개류가 확인되어 총 128개의 물질이 확인되었다. 건조구기열매의 경우 hexadecanoic acid가 6.597ppm, 2-finrancarboxaldehyde가 2.835ppm을 나타내었고. 생구기 열매는 hexadecanoic acid가 0.135ppm, 1-hexadecene이 0.126ppm의 함량을 나타내었다. 잎은 3, 7, 11, 15-teoanethyl-2-hexadecan-1-ol이 1.310ppm, hexadecanoic acid가 1.065ppm을 나타내었고, 뿌리는 hexadecanoic acid가 5.557ppm, solavetivone이 0.817ppm의 함량을 나타내어 불로구기의 모든 부위에서 hexadecanoic acid가 주요향기성분으로 나타났다.
