Abstract

Thermal properties of amylose-lysolecithin (AL) complex, amylose content and effect of lysolecithin on the gelatinization of rice starch were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The melting temperature of AL complex was near to $108.5^{\circ}C$ and the melting enthalpy was about 1.0cal/g. The gelatinization temperature of rice starch was not affected by adding lysolecithin. However, the enthalpy of gelatinization was decreased. The amylose contents in rice varieties were calculated from melting enthalpy of AL complex. The amylose contents for Indica and Japonica types of rice were in the range of 16-19%, which were in good agreement with those determined by iodine binding method. Significant differences were not observed in the amylose contents between Indica and Japonica varieties.

DSC를 이용하여 쌀에 존재하는 amylose-lysolecithin complex의 열특성을 측정하고 국내에서 재배되는 다수계 및 일반계 쌀 각각 5품종의 amylose 함량을 정량하였다. DSC pan상에서 쌀가루에 충분한 양의 lysolecithin을 첨가하여 amylose-lysolecithin complex가 충분히 생성되도록 한 후 다시 2차 가열하여 complex의 용융현상을 측정하였다. Complex의 용융온도는 $108.5^{\circ}C$부근이었으며 용융엔탈피는 1.0cal/g starch였다. 이 용융엔탈피로부터 amylose 함량을 계산한 결과 16-19%였으며 일반계 및 다수계 쌀간에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 이 값은 비색법에 의해 측정된 값과 비교적 잘 일치하였다. 쌀 전분의 호화온도는 lysolecithin 첨가에 의해 영향받지 않았으나 호화엔탈피는 감소하였다.
