Abstract

This study was carried out in order to investigate the feasibility of utilizing concentrated sunmul (soybean curd whey), which is a waste by-product of soybean curd processing, as a functional food ingredient. Sunmul Powder was concentrated by ultrafiltration and spray dried with or without dextrin. Oil adsorption capacity of UF retentate powder was similar to that of ISP (Isolated Soy Protein) and higher than that of sunmul powder, whereas water holding capacity of UF retentate powder was lower than that of ISP. Protein solubility of all types of UF retentate powder was significantly higher than that of ISP at pH 2.0-10.0 with the lowest protein solubility seen at pH 4.0 and solubility increasing as the conditions became more acidic or alkaline. Emulsifying activity indexes of UF retentate powder at pH 2.0-10.0 were not influenced by pH. Emulsion stability of 4% sunmul solution was lowest at pH 4.0, but that of UF retentate powder was higher at acidic pH values and decreased with increasing pH. Foaming capacities of sunmul and UF retentate powder were high at pH 4.0-6.0, but the foam of UF retentate powder disappeared within 20 minutes in all conditions of pH.

두부 순물을 UF막으로 농축시켜 제조한 UF 분리농축분말의 일반성분 및 이들 분말을 식품에 첨가할 경우 반드시 고려해야 할 용해도, 유화력, 거품형성능에 대해 살펴보았다. 그 결과 일반 성분에 있어서, UF 분리농축분말의 수분함량과 탄수화물 함량은 순물과 큰 차이가 없었으며 단백질 함량은 순물분말보다 2배가량 높았으나 회분함량은 2배 낮았다. 유지흡착력을 비교 시 ISP>UF 농축분말>순물 순으로 높게 나타났으며 UF 분리농축 분말의 용해도가 ISP와 순물에 비해 높기 때문에 수분흡착력은 매우 미약하였다 UF 분리농축분말의 단백질의 용해도는 등전점 부근인 pH 4.0에서 가장 낮았으며 산성 또는 알칼리성으로 갈수록 증가하는 전형적인 단백질 용해도 곡선을 나타내었다. 유화력은 ISP와는 달리 pH에 따른 현화를 보이지 않으며 150-200 정도의 EAI 값을 나타내었고, 유화안전성은 pH 6.0 이하의 산성에서 더 높은 값을 나타내며 대체로 75-92%의 높은 유화안정성을 보였다. UF 분리농축분말의 거품형성능은 증류수 처리구간에서 ISP와는 달리 pH 4.0-6.0에서 가장 우수하였으며 NaCl 농도가 높을수록 약간 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, 거품안정성을 측정한 결과 ISP에 비해 대두 단백질의 등전점인 pH 4.0 부근에서 5-7배 높은 거품안정성을 나타내었으나 pH 4.0을 제외한 모든 pH 구간에서 20분 안에 거품이 소멸되었다 UF 분리농축분말은 isoflavone 등 여러가지 기능적 성분을 함유하는 것으로 알려져 있을 뿐만 아니라 용해도, 유화력, 유화안정성, 거품형성능 등이 ISP보다 우수하여 식품가공에서 다양하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
