Abstract

The geographical origins of raw ginseng (RG) were discriminated using an electronic tongue. Taste screening, DFA (discriminant function analysis), and CDA (canonical discriminant analysis) were used to statistically analyze the data. The taste profile patterns of umami, bitterness, and sweetness of the Korean RG was different from those of the Chinese RG. The Korean RG was stronger than the Chinese RG regarding the taste of umami. DFA discriminated the geographical origins of 154 samples, with a few overlapping samples, between the Korean and Chinese RG. CDA showed that the accuracy of origin discrimination for the Korean and Chinese RGs were 87.01 and 94.81%, respectively. The final accuracy of origin discrimination was 90.91%. The distance between the centroids of each group was 2.7463. Thus, the electronic tongue analysis can be used to efficiently differentiate the geographical origins of RG.

전자혀 분석을 통해 국내산과 중국산 수삼(Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer)의 신속하고 정확한 판별법을 개발하고자 하였다. 전자혀를 이용하여 센서 감응도 값(raw data)을 분석한 뒤 taste screening하여 맛 스코어로 나타낸 결과, 국내산 수삼과 중국산 수삼은 감칠맛(UMS)에서 가장 큰 차이를 나타냈고 쓴맛(BRS)과 단맛(SWS)도 상대적으로 차이를 나타냈다. 국내산 수삼이 중국산 수삼에 비해 상대적으로 강한 감칠맛을 나타냈고, 쓴맛과 단맛은 그 반대로 나타났다. 판별함수분석 결과, DF1 (discriminant function first score) 상으로 국내산 수삼 그룹과 중국산 수삼 그룹이 구별되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. Discriminant power 값은 UMS 센서가 0.522으로 두 그룹에 가장 큰 차별성을 부여했다. CDA(canonical discriminant analysis) 분석 결과 두 수삼 그룹의 distance between centroids값은 2.7463으로 판별이 잘 된 것을 볼 수 있었다. 또한, 국내산 수삼 77점에서 67점이 국내산으로, 중국산 수삼은 77점 중 73점이 중국산으로 판별되어, 최종 판별정확도는 90.91%로 나타났다. 간단한 전처리 및 여러 가지 통계 처리를 통해 전자혀를 이용한 수삼의 원산지 판별이 가능하다고 판단되었으며, 신속하고 정확하게 판별을 수행할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
