Abstract

The separation conditions for the enhancement of isoflavone contents in soybean by soaking and germination were developed, and the fermentation conditions of Chungkukjang were optimized by using response surface methodology analysis. The high-yield of isoflavone production was obtained when the conditions of soaking and gemination were at 25.6$^{\circ}C$, 7 hr and 29.1$^{\circ}C$, 42.4 hr, respectively. Total isoflavone contents in soybean (Daepung) by treatment were increased from 1,012 ppm to 1,912 ppm. Also, the optimum fermentation conditions of Chungkukjang were determined 39.96$^{\circ}C$, 1.32% (inoulum size) and 42.4 hr, respectively. Isoflavone contents in Chungkugjang under the optimum fermentation conditions were 1.3 times higher than the control (1,960 ppm).

고 함량 이소플라본 생산을 위한 대두의 침지, 발아조건 및 청국장 발효 최적조건을 찾기 위해 반응표면분석법을 사용하였다. 대두의 침지와 발아조건은 대두를 25.6$^{\circ}C$에서 7 hr 침지 후 29.1$^{\circ}C$에서 42.4 hr 발아 시 이소플라본 함량이 가장 높게 측정이 되었다. 또한 고함량 이소플라본을 얻기위한 청국장 발효 최적 조건은 온도 39.96$^{\circ}C$, 접종량 1.32%, 42.4 hr 이었다. 최적조건에서의 이소플라본 함량은 2,544 ppm으로 대조구(1,960 ppm)보다 약 1.3 배 향상되었다.
