Abstract

In this study, volatile compounds were isolated from traditional and commercial fermented soybean pastes according to different heating temperatures (room temperature, $50^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$) using headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME). The compounds were then analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 51 volatile components, including 18 esters, 3 alcohols, 6 acids, 8 pyrazines, 5 volatile phenols, 6 aldehydes, and 5 miscellaneous compounds, were identified. Esters and acids such as ethyl hexadecanoate, acetic acid, and 2/3-methyl butanoic acid were the largest groups among the quantified volatiles. By applying principal component analyses to the GCMS data sets, differences were observed in the volatile components of the soybean pastes as to the different heating temperatures. A large variation was shown between the volatile components of the traditional and commercial soybean pastes by increasing the heating temperature. Commercial samples had significantly higher levels of longer chain ethyl esters, aldehydes, and thermal degradation products such as maltol and 2-acetyl pyrrole, while traditional samples showed higher concentrations of acids and pyrazines.

본 연구에서는 공장산 된장과 전통 된장 제품을 이용하여 가열조건(상온, $50^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$)을 달리한 시료의 휘발성 향기성분을 HS-SPME법에 의해 추출한 후, GC-MSD를 이용하여 분석동정하였고 이들 성분의 정량분석도 실시하였다. 정성된 화합물은 총51개의 향기성분이 확인되었고 동정된 성분을 화학적 특성에 따라 분류하면 18 esters, 3 alcohols, 6 acids, 8 pyrazines, 5 volatile phenols, 1 ketones, 6 aldehydes와 4개의 기타성분이 동정되었다. 에스터 성분과 산 성분이 동정된 화합물 중 두 개 시료에서 모두 가장 높은 농도를 차지하였다. 전통된장 시료는 가열 온도가 증가함에 따라 산, 피라진류의 증가가 두드러졌고, 공장산 제품의 경우 에스터, 알데히드류 및 maltol과 acetyl pyrrole과 같은 일부 마이얄반응 부산물이 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 향후, 관능검사 및 GC-Olfactometry 분석을 통한 전통 및 공장산 제품의 관능특성과 주요 휘발성 향기성분간의 상관관계분석이 필요하리라 판단되고 이를 통해 다양한 관능특성의 맞춤형 제품 개발에 기초자료로 활용할 수 있으리라 여겨진다.
