Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the bioavailability and nutritive functions of Nak-Dong rice or genetically modified ${\beta}$-carotene-biofortified rice (GM rice) in an experimental animal model. Wistar rats fed either GM rice or Nak-Dong rice did not show differences in bioavailability, growth, organ weights, or visceral fat, suggesting that the nutrient content of GM rice is compositionally equivalent to that of conventional Nak-Dong rice. In addition, GM rice showed improved nutritive function in terms of increased defecation, decreased lipids, and decreased blood glucose.

본 연구에서는 ${\beta}$-carotene 강화쌀의 생체이용율과 영양기능성을 모종쌀과 비교하였다. 실험동물은 수컷 Wistar 흰쥐를 사용하였고, Harlan 2018S-diet를 기본 식이로 하였다. 실험 식이는 낙동쌀(모종쌀), ${\beta}$-carotene 강화쌀(GM쌀) 및 Harlan 2018S-diet(대조군)으로 하였고, 실험군당 11마리씩 배정하였다. 실험식이에 함유된 전분 함량은 모종쌀과 GM쌀로 각각 30% 대체하였고, 펠렛 식이로 재성형하여 4주 동안 급여하였다. 실험기간동안 GM쌀의 급여는 모종쌀과 비교시 흰쥐에게 식이섭취량이나 체중 증가와 같은 일반적인 성장에 부정적인 영향을 주지 않았다. 간, 신장, 비장, 체지방 등의 6개 장기의 무게를 측정한 결과 GM쌀은 모종쌀 식이 섭취군과 비교시 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 간지질중 총콜레스테롤(TC) 함량은 GM쌀 식이군이 모종쌀 식이군 보다 유의하게 낮았고, 분변지질(TC, TG) 농도 역시 GM쌀 식이군이 모종쌀 식이군에 비해 낮았다. 혈청생화학치와 혈구세포의 변화를 살펴보면 전반적으로 두 실험군(모종쌀, GM쌀) 간의 차이가 없었으나, 혈청지질 농도는 GM쌀 식이군이 모종쌀 식이군 보다 낮았고, 공복혈당은 GM쌀 식이군이 모종쌀 식이군 보다 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다. 위의 결과들을 종합하면 GM쌀은 모종쌀에 비해 생체이용 측면에서 성장률과 장기무게 및 체지방 등에서 차이가 없었고, 영양기능 측면에서는 배변량을 증가시키고, 간과 분변 및 혈중 지질농도를 낮추며, 공복혈당치를 유의하게 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.
