Abstract

The aim of this study was to provide useful information for making guide of quality index of Korean red pepper. The results of physicochemical characteristics analysis showed the moisture content of air-dried and sun-dried red pepper were 10.38~15.60% and 9.46~17.22%, which show that 50% of the 40 samples exceeded the 13% KS moisture standards of red pepper powder. The capsaicinoids content of the air-dried and sun-dried samples were 10.85~126.39 mg% (1,627~18,958 Scoville heat unit) and 0.43~164.09 mg% (64.5~24,613.5 Scoville heat unit). A wide distribution of ASTA values was observed: 49.12~154.69 and 70.08~182.13 for air-dried and sun-dried red pepper, respectively, with 9.29~23.10% free sugar, and 0~1,050 mg% of ascorbic acid. The total viable cells of the air-dried red peppers were 2.01~6.67 log CFU/g and of sun-dried red peppers, 1.74~5.77 log CFU/g. The contamination level of yeast in the samples were 1.03~4.12 log CFU/g of the air-dried samples and 1.05~6.10 log CFU/g of the sun-dried samples. Among the foodborne pathogens, Clostridium perfringens and Bacillus cereus were detected in many red pepper samples regardless drying method. In the principal component analysis, the first (PC1) and second principal components (PC2) accounted for 56.78 % of the total variances (38.47% and 18.31%, respectively). Ascorbic acid, ASTA, color value (L, a, b) were strongly correlated with the PC1, and quality characteristics such as moisture, microorganism, sample (drying method) showed a negative correlation with the PC1.

본 연구는 국내에서 유통되고 있는 국내산 건고추의 품질 기준을 제시하기 위하여 농가에서 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 열풍 건조한 고추와 소비자가 선호하는 태양 건조한 고추를 지역별로 수집하여 물리화학적 및 미생물학적 품질비교를 하였다. 열풍건조한 고추와 태양 건조 고추의 건물량으로 환산한 캡사이신노이드 함량의 경우 열풍건조 시료는 10.85~126.39 mg%, 태양 건조 시료는 0.43~164.09 mg%로 넓은 범위의 분포도를 나타내었고, 총 유리당 함량은 각각 10.82~20.77%, 9.26~23.10%로 건조 방법에 따른 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 ASTA 값과 비타민 C 함량의 경우, 열풍건조 시료는 49.12~154.69, 0.0~1,010 mg%, 태양건조 시료는 70.08~182.13, 620~1,050 mg%로 태양건조 시료가 열풍건조 시료보다 높은 범위의 값을 보였다. 총균수와 효모의 경우, 열풍건조 시료군은 2.01~6.67 log CFU/g, 1.03~4.12 log CFU/g이었고, 태양 건조 시료군은 1.74~5.77 log CFU/g, 1.05~6.10 log CFU/g이었다. 또 병원성 미생물인 Clostridium perfringens와 Bacillus cereus도 건조 방법에 상관없이 검출되었다. 한편 이들 품질 특성들을 이용한 주성분 분석 결과 제1요인은 38.47%, 제2요인은 18.31%였고, 총 설명력은 56.78%였다. PC1은 비타민 C, ASTA값, 색도와 관련이 있었고, PC 2는 수분함량, 미생물 수, 건조 방법과 관련이 있었다. 본 연구결과는 국내에서 유통되고 있는 고춧가루의 건조방법에 따른 품질 차이와 미생물의 오염도가 확인되었고, 소비자가 원하는 고추 품질 지표에 유용한 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
