Abstract

Sprout vegetable and general vegetable were obtained from radish, red cabbage, vegetable green, buckwheat and broccoli seeds. The vitamin contents had a large deviation, and the vitamin B1 contents decreased and/or was not detected according to the sprouting. This tendency occurred because of the use for growth of sprouts. The mineral contents in sprout vegetables was the highest and was 2~10 times greater than general vegetables. In the growing pathway, potassium was a large consumption nutrient and consumption of sodium was low. $\alpha$-Amylase and total enzyme activities were higher in sprout vegetable than general vegetable, which was also the case of the corresponding freeze dried powders. Sprouting was shown to increase the enzyme activities. Thus, sprout vegetables had several advantages including a rich level of nutrients and safety from agricultural pesticides.

무, 적양배추, 청경채, 메밀 및 브로콜리 씨앗을 이용하여 새싹채소 및 성장이 완료된 일반채소를 재배하였다. 이들에 대한 비타민 함량을 측정한 결과 각 시료에 따라 큰 편차를 나타내었으며, 비타민 $B_1$은 싹이 트면서 그 함량이 감소하거나 검출되지 않았다. 이는 비타민 $B_1$이 성장에 사용되는 영양소이기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 새싹채소의 무기물 함량은 일반채소 보다 2~10배 높게 나타났다. 새싹의 성장에 다량 이용되는 무기물은 칼륨이었고, 나트륨은 가장 적게 소비되었다. 일반채소에 비하여 새싹채소가 그 $\alpha$-amylase 활성 및 종합당화력이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 경향은 이들을 이용하여 가공한 동결건조분말에서도 동일한 경향을 나타내어 전체적으로 싹 틔움에 따라 효소활성도가 비례적으로 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다. 새싹채소의 장점은 각종 영양소가 풍부하고, 가정에서 직접 재배가 가능하여 농약이나 화학처리를 하지 않기 때문에 안심하고 먹을 수 있다는 점인 것으로 판단된다.
