Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in proximate composition, free sugars, amino acids, fatty acids and Hunter color vaules between fresh and odorless garlic. The contents of crude fiber, crude fat and ash in odorless garlic were silmilar to those in fresh garlic. Sugars and crude protein decreased during manufacture of odorless garlic. Among the free sugars, sucrose, maltose and fructose decreased in odorless garlic, while the content of glucose increased. Total amino acid content decreased by about 30% in odorless garlic. Among the amino acids decreased arginine, isoleucine etc. The contents of linoleic acid, palmitic acid and oleic acid were higher than those of other fatty acids in fresh garlic and odorless garlic, but laruric acid was in little quantity. There were no singnificant differences in the Hunter L and b value between the fresh and odorless garlic, but value for greeness(-a) was lower in odorless garlic.

본 실험에서는 생마늘을 소금물에서 $100^{\circ}C$로 가열하고 급냉하여 제조한 무취마늘과 생마늘의 일반성분, 유리당, 아미노산, 지방산 및 색도의 변화를 조사하였다. 일반성분 중 조섬유, 조지방 및 회분의 함량은 거의 변화가 없으나 환원당은 약 15%, 조단백질의 함량이 약 27% 감소되었다. 유리당 성분은 glucose가 증가된 반면에 sucrose와 maltose는 감소되었다. 총 아미노산은 30% 정도가 감소되었는데, 그 중 arginine, isoleucine등이 이 감소되었다 생마늘에 가장 많이 함유된 지방산은 linoleic acid 59.53%이었으며, 그 다음은 oleic acid 10.05%이었고, lauric acid가 0.24%로 가장 적었다. 그리고 무취 마늘에서는 linoleic acid 39.74%, behenic acid 15.35%였으며, lauric acid가 0.37%로 가장 적었다. 색도는 L, b 값은 거의 변화가 없으나 a값은 약간 감소하는 경향이었다.
