Abstract
To determine mixing ratios for mixtures of rapeseed oil and other oils, an electronic nose (E-nose) based on a mass spectrometer system was used. Rapeseed oil was blended with soy bean oil or corn oil at ratios of 100:0, 97:3, 94:6, 91:9, 88:12, 85:15, and 80:20, respectively. The intensities of each fragment from the mixed rapeseed oil by E-nose based on MS were completely different from those of the soy bean oil and corn oil. The obtained data were used for discriminant function analysis (DFA). DFA plots indicated a significant separation of pure rapeseed oil and soy bean oil or corn oil and their mixtures. The added concentration of soy bean oil or corn oil to rapeseed oil was highly correlated to the first discriminant function score (DF1). When soy bean oil was added to rapeseed oil, it was possible to predict the following equation: DF1=-0.170*conc. of soy bean oil+0.431 ($r^2=0.989$). For corn oil the equation was: DF1=-0.1*conc. of corn oil+0.4 ($r^2=0.844$). The use of an E-nose based on a MS system is as an efficient method for the authentication of pure rapeseed oil.
본 연구는 유채유에 타기름이 혼합되었을 때 그 혼합 비율에 따른 차이를 전자코로 분석하였다. 대두유와 옥수수유를 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 20%를 유채유에 각각 혼입하여 전자코로 분석한 결과 DF1의 영향을 주로 받아 혼합 비율이 증가함에 따라 DF1이 음의방향으로 일정한 경향을 보이며 이동하여 나타났다. 이를 혼합비율에 따른 DF1값을 막대그래프로 나타낸 결과 혼합비율이 증가함에 따라 DF1값이 감소하여 뚜렷한 차이를 보였다. 유채유에 대두유를 혼합할 경우 DF1= $-0.170{\times}conc.$(대두유 혼합비율)+0.431 ($r^2=0.989$)과 같은 상관관계식을 얻어 유채유에 타 기름이 혼합될 경우 그 함량의 예측이 가능하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 전자코를 이용하여 유채유의 위조판별이 가능함을 확인하였으며 다른유지를 비롯한 다양한 식품에 적용 가능할 것이다.
