Abstract

In order to select the best strains to have the feasibility of Cheonghju brewing, 10 wild type yeast strains from 300 different types of Nuruk were investigated on their ethanol resistance, resistance to glucose and flocculation. The amounts of alcohol, organic acids, and volatile compounds, Brix, pH were also examined for the alcoholic beverages made with the 10 selected strains. Almost all strains showed alcohol production activities in the medium containing 18%(v/v) ethanol and 29%(w/v) glucose. The strains 90-2 showed a higher flocculation activity than other strains. Strains 54-3, 90-2 and 91-5 produced more alcohol than control strain (7.42%(w/w)) when fermented with wild type yeast strains. In addition, alcoholic beverages containing low acetic acid also showed low levels of total acidity. GC/MS analysis of the product showed 4 alcohols, 11 esters and 1 acid as volatile compounds. Selected strains were tentatively identified as Phichia sydowiorum (91-5), Zygosaccharomyces cidri (192-2 and 271-4), and as Saccharomyces cerevisiae (18-2, 54-3, 90-2, 91-2, 98-2, 99-5 and 272-7) by BIIOLOG method.

누룩으로부터 분리한 야생효모 10균주의 청주제조 가능성을 위해 발효에 관여하는 몇 가지 특성을 조사한 후 신속간이 동정하였다. 전국에서 수집한 300여 점의 누룩으로부터 알코올 발효성이 뛰어난 야생효모 10균주를 선별하였으며 알코올 내성, 내당성 및 침강성을 조사한 후 발효물을 제조하여 알코올 함량, 당도, pH, 유기산 및 휘발성 향기성분을 조사하였고 선별된 10균주를 Biolog를 이용하여 신속간이 동정하였다. 알코올 내성은 ethanol 함량 18%까지는 모두 활성을 보였으나 20%이상에서는 효모 54-3, 90-2 그리고 91-5만이 활성을 나타냈으며 내당성은 모두 우수하였고 침강성은 효모 90-2가 83.03%로 매우 좋게 나타났다. 야생효모를 이용하여 발효물을 제조한 후의 알코올 함량은 대조군 7.42%보다 높게 나타난 것이 3 균주였으며 유기산은 효모 272-7이 대조군과 거의 같은 함량을 보였고 acetic acid 함량이 적은 균주는 total acid 함량 또한 적게 나타났다. 발효물에서의 휘발성 향기성분은 alcohol류가 4종, ester류가 11종 그리고 acid류가 1종 확인되었다. Higher alcohol과 휘발성분의 대부분을 차지한 ester류는 대조군이 월등히 높았고 효모 54-3과 91-2에서 대조군 면적비율의 중간 이상으로 나타났다. BIOLOG로 신속 간이 동정한 결과 효모 54-3 외 6 균주가 S. cerevisiae, 효모 192-2와 271-4는 Z. cidri 그리고 효모 91-5는 P. sydowiorum으로 동정되었다.
