Abstract

In this study, the effects of intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment on microbial inactivation and quality in rapeseed sprouts were investigated. Untreated rapeseed sprouts exhibit a high level of total aerobic bacteria (TAB) ($1.2{\times}10^7CFU/g$), coliform bacteria (coliform) ($3.3{\times}10^6CFU/g$), and pathogenic E. coli (PE) ($2.1{\times}10^5CFU/g$). The microorganisms found on rapeseed sprouts decreased with exposure to increasing light intensity and treatment time. The greatest reduction in microbial content was observed with a treatment of 1000 V, 5 pps for 10 min, where TAB, coliform, and PE levels decreased to 1.0 log CFU/g, 1.6 log CFU/g, and 1.8 log CFU/g, respectively. In agreement with these data, the microbial inactivation rate increased with the increase in the distance between the light source and the samples during IPL treatment. After IPL treatment of rapeseed sprouts, water content and vitamin C content decreased.

비가열 살균 기술 중 하나인 광펄스 기술을 이용하여 신선편이 식품 중 하나인 새싹채소에 존재하는 미생물의 저감 효과를 검토하였다. 새싹 채소에 존재하는 미생물의 오염도는 총균수 $1.2{\times}10^7CFU/g$, 대장균군 $3.3{\times}10^6CFU/g$, E. coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella 및 Listeria는 각각 $2.1{\times}10^5CFU/g$, $4.9{\times}10^5CFU/g$, $1.7{\times}10^5CFU/g$, $4.3{\times}10^4CFU/g$이었다. 펄스 수 5 pps, 광원과 시료 사이의 거리 6.7 cm의 동일한 조건에서 빛의 세기를 달리하여 처리하였을 경우 빛의 세기가 강할수록 사멸율은 증가하였으며, 빛의 세기 1000 V에서 일반세균은 1.0 log CFU/g, 대장균군은 1.6 log CFU/g, 병원성 대장균은 1.8 log CFU/g의 사멸율을 보였다. 광원과 시료 사이의 거리에 따른 사멸효과는 거리가 짧을수록 사멸율은 증가하여, 광원과 시료 사이의 거리 6.7 cm, 빛의 세기 1000 V, 펄스 수 5 pps에서 일반세균 0.9 log CFU/g, 대장균군 0.8 log CFU/g, 병원성대장균 1.9 log CFU/g의 사멸율을 나타내었다. 광펄스 처리 전후 새싹채소의 수분함량과 비타민 C의 함량변화는 처리 후의 시료가 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 유의적인 차이를 나타내지는 않았다. 새싹채소의 살균에 있어 광펄스 기술은 처리 조건에 따라 90-99%의 사멸율을 나타내어 신선편이 식품의 비가열 살균 기술로서의 적용 가능성을 보였다.
