Abstract

Recently, Sunshik has been issued because of easy-cook and well-being food. Sunshik basically was made of the heated cereals. Amount of spore-forming Bacillus cereus was detected and it has been caused some problem of food safety. B. cereus was isolate from 57 out of 161 Sunshik samples resulting in the isolation rate of 35.4%. Quantitative analysis of 57 samples showed that 21 samples were less than 100 CFU/g, 33 samples were between 100 and 1,000 CFU/g and distinctively even 3 (1.9%) samples had over 1,000 CFU/g. Typical morphology of B. cereus isolated from Sunshik was observed on MYP agar and then further characteristics was identified by using VITEK 2 (Biomeriux, France). 53 strains out of 57 strains isolated from Sunshik (about 93.0%) produced diarrheal enterotoxin in brain heart infusion broth which was detected by the Bacillus cereus enterotoxin reversed passive latex agglutination test kit (Oxoid England). The D-values of the B. cereus spores were $75^{\circ}C$ (37.1mim), $80^{\circ}C$ (22.5mim), $85^{\circ}C$ (4.9mim), and $90^{\circ}C$ (3.1mim) respectively. The Z-value was calculated $12.8^{\circ}C$ in Sunshik sample inoculated with B. cereus. Therefore, the management of B. cereus in Sunshik is required for the food-safety.

최근 식사대용으로 각광을 받는 선식은 포장 후 더 이상 가열 처리 과정 없이 섭취하는 식품으로 포자를 형성하여 열처리 과정에서 완전히 사멸되지 않으며 생존하는 B. cereus에 의한 위해성이 문제시되고 있다. 따라서 시중에서 유통되고 있는 선식에 대한 B. cereus정량을 통해 오염 수준을 파악한 결과 선식 161점 중 57점 (35.4%)에서 B. cereur가 검출되었고 검출된 시료 57점 중에 100 FU/g 미만은 21점, 100-1000 CFU/g 미만은 33점, 1,000 CFU/g 이상은 3점이 검출되었다. 선식에서 분리한 B. cereus의 생화학적 특성을 통해 독소 형태를 알아본 결과는 enterotoxin 양성이 93%이며 emetic toxin 의심 균주는 5.3%였다. 이러한 B. cereus의 저감화를 위한 방안의 일환으로 선식의 제조 과정에서 B. cereus의 열처리 과정에 대한 사멸 정도를 측정하였다 측정한 결과 tryptic soy broth에 포자를 접종한 결과는 75, 80, 85, 90에서 40.3분, 8.8분, 3.3분, 1.1분이였다. 용질에 따라 수분 활성도가 낮아지면 열에 대한 저항성이 높아지므로 선식에 시료에 대한 D-value를 시험한 결과 $75^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$, $85^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$에서 37.1분, 22.5분, 4.9분, 3.1분이였다. Z-value는 tryptic soy broth에서는 $9.8^{\circ}C$이며 선식 시료에서는 $12.8^{\circ}C$였다. 따라서 선식에서 B. cereis에 대한 관리가 요구되어진다.
