Abstract

The Folin-Denis assay using the Folin-Ciocalteu (F-C) reagent has been commonly used for analyzing the total phenolic compound content in various food products. In the present study, the effects of proteins on the reactivity of the F-C reagent with different phenolic compounds were investigated. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) or skim milk proteins showed a concentration-dependent increase in color response in the Folin-Denis assay; these proteins decreased the color response of most phenolic compounds tested. The reactivity of phenolic compounds was significantly less pronounced in the presence of BSA and this interference was greater at higher concentrations of phenolic compounds. The reactivity of phenolic compounds with the F-C reagent was reduced significantly by their oxidation; the reaction of the oxidized products with the F-C reagent was more severely affected by BSA. The interfering effects in the Folin-Denis assay might be attributable to binding interactions of phenolic compounds with proteins.

본 연구는 기능성 소재 등의 페놀성 성분 함량 분석에 널리 이용되는 Folin-Denis 정량반응에서 단백질이 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. BSA와 SMP는 Folin-Denis 페놀정량반응에서 농도의존적인 발색반응을 나타내었고 BSA가 SMP보다 더 민감한 반응성을 나타내었다. 그러나 BSA는 각종 페놀성 물질과 같이 존재할 경우 페놀성 물질 자체에 의한 발색도 이하로 반응성을 감소시켰으며, 0.25보다 0.5 mg/mL의 BSA 농도에서 더 저하된 발색도를 유도하였다. BSA에 의한 서로 다른 페놀성 물질 간의 반응성 차이는 크게 나타나지 않았으나, SiA, Ctc, 및 EGCG 등에서 물질 당량 당 흡광도 증가의 기울기가 비교적 크게 감소하였다. 이들은 BSA가 없을 때에 비해 0.25와 0.5 mg/mL BSA 존재 시 각각 80%대 및 70%대의 기울기 감소율을 나타내었다. 한편, 페놀성 화합물들의 산화를 유도하여 F-C시약과 반응시킨 결과, TA, GA 및 EGCG에서 반응성의 감소가 크게 나타났으며, BSA 존재 시 이들 산화물의 상대적 발색도는 산화시간의 증가 및 BSA 농도 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. BSA의 형광강도가 TA, EGCG에 의해 유의적으로 감소하는 것으로 보아, BSA에 의한 페놀성 물질의 F-C시약과의 반응성 감소는 페놀성 물질과 BSA의 결합특성에 의한 것으로 사료된다. 이상의 결과는 단백질이 페놀성 물질과의 상호작용을 통해 이들의 정량에 간섭할 뿐만 아니라 페놀성 물질의 다양한 생리활성에도 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것으로 시사하며, 보다 정확한 기작검토를 위하여 관련 연구가 지속적으로 수행 되어야 할 것으로 보인다.
