Abstract

Tea seed extract, a byproduct of tea processing, contains two kaempferol glycosides, camelliaside A and camelliaside B. Kaempferol was produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of glycosides. Optimum reaction conditions were investigated. $Pectinex^{(R)}100L$ was effective, producing kaempferol in 48 hrs. Optimum temperature and pH were $40^{\circ}C$ and 4, respectively. Ratio of substrate and enzyme affected the yield. Under optimum conditions, 1.6g kaempferol per 1 kg tea seed extract was produced and 80% of kaempferol precipitated. This result shows that kaempferol could be produced mildly and effectively using tea-processing byproduct.

캠페롤은 항산화, 항염등의 성질을 가지고 있지만 생산이 쉽지가 않다. 차의 씨를 가공하고 발생하는 부산물 (tea seed extract)에는 캠페롤과 당이 결합되어 있는 형태인 camelliaside A와 camelliaside B가 포함되어 있다. 본 실험에서는 캠페롤을 효소의 가수분해에 의하여 생산하였다. 가장 효과적인 효소는 $pectinex^{(R)}100L$ 이며, 효소 반응에서 캠페롤은 48시간내에 생산되었다. 반응 최적 조건은 $40^{\circ}C$, pH 4이며 생산의 최적조건하에서 차 부산물 1 kg당 1.6 g의 캠페롤이 생산되었고 약 80%의 캠페롤이 침전되었다. 효소반응에 의한 캠페롤 생산법은 생산물의 회수가 용이한 효과적인 방법임을 알 수 있다.
