Abstract

This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of chlorine dioxide on reducing E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes on broccoli served in foodservice institutions. Broccoli samples inoculated with $10^6$ CFU/mL of E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes were treated with chlorine dioxide. Treatments with 5, 10, and 20 ppm for 1, 5, and 10 min were not sufficient in controlling E. coli O157:H7 on broccoli. L. monocytogenes were effectively reduced by $2.19{\sim}2.48log\;CFU/g\;and\;3.31{\sim}3.87log\;CFU/g$ with 10 and 20 ppm chlorine dioxide for 1, 5, and 10 min treatment, respectively, compared with the control. E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes population were significantly negatively correlated with concentration and treatment time of chlorine dioxide. These results show that the use of chlorine dioxide was effective in sanitizing L. monocytogenes on broccoli and the level of concentration was more associated with populations of E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes than treatment time of chlorine dioxide on broccoli.

본 연구에서는 최근 급식소나 외식업소에서 샐러드용 식재료로 많이 제공되는 브로콜리의 미생물학적 안전성을 확보하기 위한 방안을 제시하기 위하여 E. coli O157:H7과 L. monocytogenes를 접종하여 이산화염소의 농도 및 시간을 달리하여 처리한 후 식중독균에 대한 살균 효과를 평가하였다. 브로콜리에 E. coli O157:H7을 접종한 직후의 균수는 5.91 log CFU/g이었고, 멸균수로 1분 처리한 후에는 5.74 log CFU/g로 별다른 감소를 보이지 않았다. 5 ppm, 10 ppm, 20 ppm의 이산화염소로 각각 1분, 5분, 10분간 처리한 후의 균수도 멸균수로 처리한 경우에 비해 단지 $0.31{\sim}1.05log\;CFU/g$ 정도만 감소하여 충분한 살균효과를 보이지 않았다. 브로콜리에 L. monocytogenes를 접종한 직후의 균수는 5.80 log CFU/g이었으나, 멸균수에 1분간 침지한 후에는 5.59 log CFU/g로 유의적인 감소를 보이지 않았다. 10 ppm과 20 ppm의 이산화염소로 처리한 후에는 멸균수로 처리한 경우에 비해 균수가 각각 $2.19{\sim}2.48log\;CFU/g$$3.31{\sim}3.87log\;CFU/g$만큼 유의적으로 감소되었다. 접종된 E. coli O157:H7과 L. monocytogenes의 균수는 모두 이산화염소의 처리농도 및 시간과 각각 유의적인 음의 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 추정된 회귀식은 각각 $Y_1=5.934-0.046X_1-0.028X_2$$Y_2=5.630-0.177X_1-0.043X_2$이었고, 설명력은 각각 95%와 93%이었다. 이산화염소수로 세척한 브로콜리에서의 E. coli O157:H7과 L. monocytogenes의 균수를 예측함에 있어 이산화염소의 처리시간보다는 처리농도가 더 중요한 변인인 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 5 ppm의 이산화염소는 브로콜리에 부착된 식중독균을 효과적으로 제거하지 못하는 것으로 나타나 이산화염소를 생채소 세척제로 사용할 경우에는 세척농도를 높여 사용함이 효과적이겠다. 또한 본 연구를 토대로 급식소와 외식업체에서 제공되는 샐러드용 채소에 대한 미생물적 안전성 보장을 위하여 다양한 채소에 대해 이산화염소 처리에 따른 식중독균의 증식 억제 효과에 대한 세밀한 검토가 이루어질 필요가 있겠다. 아울러 과일이나 채소에 이산화염소 처리 시 산화작용으로 인해 색깔이나 맛이 변할 수 있으므로 관능검사에 대한 연구도 수행되어야 하겠다.
