Abstract

This study is conducted to investigate the yield of extract, total phenolic compounds, total flavonoid compound contents, free radical scavenging activities (DPPH assay, ABTS assay), reducing power (Oyaizu's assay, FRAP assay) and antimicrobial activities of spinach according to various cooking methods (non-blanched, blanched, seasoned). The yield of non-blanched spinach is 1.64% and the extract yield of blanched spinach is 1.49%, and on the other hand, the yield of seasoned spinach is 6.01%. Total polyphenol contents of seasoned spinach is recorded as $124.31{\pm}1.37mg$ GAE/100 g FW, non-blanched spinach $51.24{\pm}0.27mg$ GAE/100 g FW, and blanched spinach $42.48{\pm}0.53mg$ GAE/100 g FW. From the total flavonoids, seasoned spinach extracts ($15.60{\pm}0.20mg$ CE/100 g FW) showed higher total flavonoid contents than non-blanched. Total antioxidant activities (DPPH assay, ABTS assay, FRAP assay, reducing power) are shown to be in the order of seasoned spinach > non-blanched spinach > blanched spinach. In the antimicrobial activities, non-blanched spinach (5, 10 mg/disc) showed antimicrobial activity against S. enterica and P. aeruginosa. The inhibition zone diameter from extracts of blanched spinach has not been detected. Seasoned spinach indicated antimicrobial activity only against P. aeruginosa (8.15 mm) at 10 mg/disc. If we are to eat a lot of non-blanched spinach, it would cause calculus. Blanching helps to prevent against calculus, since the blanching process can remove various amounts of oxalic acids. The overall results of this study demonstrate that seasoned cooked spinach would be the most efficient way of ingestion to consume antioxidant compounds.

시금치의 조리 과정(non-blanched, blanched, seasoned) 중 총 폴리페놀, 플라보노이드 함량 및 항산화 활성과 항균 활성 변화를 측정하였다. 80% 에탄올에 추출한 시금치의 수율은 데치기 전 1.64%, 데친 후 1.49%, 무친 후 6.01%로 무친 후 > 데치기 전 > 데친 후 순으로 높은 수율을 보였다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 무친 후가 $124.31{\pm}1.37mg$ GAE/100 g FW로 가장 높았고, 데치기 전 $51.24{\pm}0.27mg$ GAE/100 g FW, 데친 후 $42.48{\pm}0.53mg$ GAE/100 g FW로 데친 후가 가장 낮은 총 폴리페놀 함량을 보였다. 총 플라보노이드 함량에서도 무친 후가 $15.60{\pm}0.20mg$ CHE/100 g FW로 가장 높은 함량을 나타냈다. 무친 후의 시금치는 4가지의 항산화 실험(DPPH assay, ABTS assay, FRAP assay, Reducing power)에서도 데치기 전이나 데친 후의 시금치보다 우수한 활성을 보였다. 항균 활성 측정 결과, 데치기 전 시금치는 S. enterica와 P. aeruginosa 두 개의 균에 대해서 5 mg/disc와 10 mg/disc의 두 농도에서 항균 활성을 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 데친 후 시금치는 항균 활성을 나타내지 않았고, 무친 후 시금치는 P. aeruginosa에 대해서만 10 mg/disc의 농도에서 8.15 mm의 clear zone을 형성하였다. 따라서 항균 활성 측면에서는 시금치를 생으로 섭취하는 것이 이로우나, 시금치를 생으로 과다 섭취할 경우, 체내에 결석이 생길 수 있으므로 끓는 물에 시금치를 데쳐 어느 정도의 수산을 제거하는 것이 바람직하다고 사료되며, 시금치를 무치는 과정에서 갖은 양념을 첨가함으로써 데치기 전보다 항산화 활성이 증가하므로, 가능한 무친 후의 시금치를 섭취하는 것이 건강적인 측면에서 이로울 것으로 사료된다.
