초록

천연 갈변 및 미생물 억제제 소재를 발굴하기 위해 신선절단 사과에 백년초추출물을 처리하여 색도변화, peroxidase 활성, 황색포도상구균 생육을 조사하였다. 신선절단 사과의 L값은 백련초 추출물 처리구가 대조구에 비해 유의적으로 감소폭이 적어 갈변억제가 나타난 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, a값은 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 증가하였으며 백련초 추출물 처리구는 2일째부터 갈변억제효과를 보였다. Peroxidase 활성도 백년초 추출물 처리구에서 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 갈변억제효과를 확인하였다. 신선절단 사과에서 백년초 추출물 25 mg/mL 이상 처리구에서 유의적으로 황색포도상구균 생육억제 효과가 나타났으며, 온도별로는 $21^{\circ}C$ 저장시 억제효과가 더 큰 것으로 판단되었다. 특히 100 mg/mL 처리구에서 4일째부터 황색포도상구균이 검출한계 이하로 관찰되어 생육억제에 매우 효과적임을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구결과, 백년초 추출물 처리는 신선절단 사과의 저장 중에 갈변억제 및 황색포도상구균의 생육억제에 효과적인 천연물이며, 향후 신선절단식품의 품질유지에 효과적인 식품첨가제로서 개발 가능하리라 판단된다.

The dual effectiveness of Opuntia ficus indica extracts for browning inhibition and microbial inactivation on fresh-cut apples was investigated. Prepared apple slices were treated with 25, 50, 100, 200 mg/mL Opuntia ficus indica extracts, packaged in polyethylene bags, and stored for 10 days at 4, $21^{\circ}C$. Results indicate that Opuntia ficus indica extracts significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited the browning reaction of fresh-cut apples. This treatment also reduced peroxidase activities. The populations of Staphylococcus aureus significantly decreased with increasing extract concentration (p < 0.05). In particular, S. aureus was reduced to non-detectable levels after 2 days in 100 mg/mL treatment at $4^{\circ}C$ and $21^{\circ}C$. Opuntia ficus indica extracts therefore have antibacterial and antibrowning effects. The results suggest that Opuntia ficus indica extracts could be useful as a natural food preservative.
