Abstract

In this study, we tried to screen the Bacillus strain having safety probability by isolation of strains from traditional fermented food, measurement of probiotic properties, and the fermentative characteristics of Cheonggukjang. We isolated 400 Bacillus-like isolates from traditional fermented foods. Selected strains examined on the prevalent characteristic such as extracellular enzyme and antibacterial activities, and their safety probability was confirmed by biogenic amine productivity, hemolytic, and harmful substances and enzyme productivity. We selected the 5 strains by analysis of biogenic amine, antibacterial and B. cereus toxic associated gene. Five selected strains were examined on cell surface hydrophobicity, and bile and acid tolerance, and we selected the SRCM100730 as the final strain. SRCM100730 was confirmed B. amyloliquefaciens by 16S rRNA sequencing, and named the B. amyloloquefaciens SRCM100730 (KCCM11966P). Finally, we manufactured Cheonggukjang using SRCM100730 for confirmation of fermentation properties. Manufactured Cheonggukjang did not contain B. cereus, and showed that ${\gamma}$-PGA and extracellular enzyme activities were superior to commercial Chunggukjang. Amino nitrogen content was 544.02 mg% and 26 free amino acid were detected, and the bitterness-related amino acid content was lower than commercial Cheonggukjang. Especially, the amount of GABA was 3 fold higher than commercial Cheonggukjang. These results suggest that SRCM100730 have high availability in commercial probiotics market and fermented food industry.

본 연구에서는 전통발효 식품에서 균주를 분리하고 상업적으로 이용 가능하며 프로바이오틱스 특성, 우수한 발효특성 및 전통발효식품에서 문제시 되고 있는 부분을 통제하여 안전성을 갖는 Bacillus 속 균주를 선발하고자 하였다. 전통발효식품 100종에서 400종의 균주를 분리 후 선택배지를 이용하여 Bacillus 속 균주 100 종을 1차 선별하였다. 분리주를 대상으로 세포외 효소, 항균활성 등 기본 균주 특성 분석을 수행하였고, biogenic amine 생성능, 용혈성 및 유해 대사산물과 효소 생성능을 조사하여 안전성을 확인하였다. 또한 독소유전자, biogenic amine 생성 관련 유전자, 항균 펩타이드 유전자에 대한 보유 여부 조사를 통해 가장 우수한 5종의 균주를 2차 선별하였다. 5종의 선별 분리주를 대상으로 프로바이오틱스 활용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 내산성 및 내담즙성, 세포표면 소수성 분석을 실시하였다. 5종의 선별 균주 중 SRCM 100730은 pH 2.0 조건에서 4.24 log CFU/mL, 0.6% oxgall 조건에서 5.81 log CFU/mL로 높은 생존율을 나타내었고, 세포 표면 소수성 분석 결과 72.2%로 가장 높은 소수성을 지니고 있어, 잠재적 프로바이오틱스 특성이 우수한 SRCM 100730을 최종 균주로 선정하였다. 최종 선발 균주는 16S rRNA 염기서열 분석을 통해 B. amyloliquefaciens로 확인되어 B. amyloliquefaciens SRCM 100730(KCCM 11966P)로 명명하였으며, 이를 이용한 청국장을 제조하여 대두를 이용한 발효 특성을 확인하였다. 제조 청국장은 B. cereus가 검출되지 않았으며, ${\gamma}$-PGA와 세포외 효소 활성이 시판 청국장과 비교해 우수함을 확인하였다. 또한 아미노태 질소 함량은 544.02 mg%, 유리 아미노산은 26종이 검출되었고, 쓴맛을 내는 leucine, isoleucine, valine, methionine, phenylalanine이 시판 제품보다 낮으며, 중추신경계에 작용하는 억제 신경전달물질인 GABA는 시판 청국장에 비해 약 3배 높은 것을 확인하였다. 연구 결과를 토대로 SRCM 100730은 세포외 효소 및 항균활성이 우수하고, 내산성 및 내담즙성 등의 프로바이오틱스 특성이 우수하며, 청국장 발효와 같은 발효식품 산업에 활용 가능성이 높은 프로바이오틱스 소재로 기대된다.
