The Comparison in the Physicochemical Properties of Sesame Seeds by Producing Areas

산지에 따른 참깨종자의 이화학적 특성 비교

Abstract

Sesame seed is known as a good nutritional source containing high oil (51%) and protein (20%). Sesame oil contains a very high oxidative stability compared to other vegetable oils. To obtain basic information for quality evaluation, imported and domestic sesame seeds were investigated to measure general components (ash, protein, moisture and oil), fatty acid composition and lignan content. Although the protein contents were the highest in domestic sesame seeds, yet the lipid contents were the highest in imported sesame seeds. Unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acids were the highest in the domestic sesame seeds. Lignan contents, the most important component known as antioxidant, were significantly higher in domestic sesame seeds than other imported sesame seeds. These results suggest that domestic sesame seed may have the best quality in terms of the functional components.

국내산과 수입산 참깨의 이화학적 특성을 파악하기 위해 일반성분 분석, 지방산 조성 및 리그난 함량을 분석한 결과, 국내산, 수입산 참깨의 일반성분 분석결과 단백질함량은 국내산 참깨가 높았으며, 지방함량은 나이지리아산 참깨가 약간 높게 나타났다. 올레산과 리놀레산을 합한 총 양질 불포화지방산은 국내산 85.69%, 수입산 $83.06{\sim}85.05%$로 국내산 참깨가 양질의 지방산을 다량 함유하였다. 참깨 중 세사민과 세사몰린 성분 분석결과 국내산 참깨가 수입산 참깨보다 높은 함유량을 나타내었다. 참깨의 일반성분 분석결과 국내산, 수입산 참깨간에는 미미한 차이였지만 세사민과 세사몰린의 리그난 성분에서 국내산 참깨가 높은 수준으로 나타나 이화학적 특성이 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
