Abstract

Propolis extract was added to white bread(P1-1.48%, P2-0.74%, P3-0.37%), prepared in the straight-dough method, and its effects on shelf-life, antimicrobial activity, staling and sensory evaluation of white bread were investigated. In all P1, P2 samples, added propolis inhibited the growth of fungi, and the more propolis extract was added, the higher degree of inhibition of fungal growth was observed. The staling rates of white breads with P1, P2 and P3 were retarded by 22.5%, 19.2% and 6.4% respectively compared to that of control, and the Avrami exponent was similar in all samples. As a result of sensory evaluation, flavor, off-flavor, texture and overall acceptability of P2 and P3 were not significantly different from that of control.

Propolis 추출물을 첨가하여(P1-1.48%, P2-0.74%, P3-0.37%) 식빵을 제조하고, 식빵의 선도와 품질유지에 관계하는 항균성과 노화방지 효과 및 관능특성을 살펴보았다. propolis가 첨가된 P1, P2, P3 식빵시료 모두 곰팡이의 생장이 억제되었으며, propolis의 첨가량이 많을수록 저해효과도 증가하였다. 식빵의 저장중 노화속도는 P1, P2, P3가 대조구에 비하여 각각 22.5%, 19.2% 및 6.4%씩 지연효과가 있었으며, Avrami 지수는 정수 1에 가까운 값을 보였다. 관능검사 결과 P2와 P3가 대조구와 비교시 식빵의 향미, 이취, 조직감, 전체적인 기호성에 있어서 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다.
