Abstract

In this study, we investigated the physiochemical properties and biological activities of Gangwon-do endemic Makjang (MJ) products (12 types). The pH levels of all samples were in the range of 4.43 to 5.69, and MJ5 showed the highest pH (5.69). The salinities of all samples ranged from 11.1% to 16.9%. Hunter color values for L (lightness), a (redness), and b (yellowness) ranged from 26.2 to 36.9, 3.9 to 11.5, and 6.5 to 16.6, respectively. The amino nitrogen content of MJ2 was highest, whereas the total content of free amino acids of MJ11 (4,657.7 mg%) was highest. Total fatty acid contents of all samples ranged from 1,598.6 mg% to 2,874.4 mg%, with MJ10 showing the highest fatty acid content. The content of total polyphenolic compounds ranged from 401.48 to $746.67{\mu}g$ tannic acid equivalent/mL, with MJ11 showing the highest content. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiozoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging effects of MJ11, MJ8, and MJ4 were 51.30% and 82.5%, 41.29% and 67.0%, and 49.88% and 87.7%, respectively. MJ12 showed the strongest growth inhibitory effect on lung cancer A549 cells, whereas MJ5 showed the strongest growth inhibitory effect on AGS gastric cancer cell and MCF-7 breast cancer cell. MJ7 showed greater lipid accumulation inhibitory activity in HepG2 cells than the others. ACE inhibitory activity of MJ11 was the highest among the samples.

본 연구에서는 강원도에서 생산되는 전통 막장제품(MJ) 12종을 수집하여 이화학적 품질특성 및 생리활성 효과에 대해 조사하였다. pH는 4.43~5.69로 나타났고 MJ5가 가장 높았으며, 염도는 11.1~16.9%로 분포되어 있었고 MJ3이 가장 높았다. 명도는 26.2~36.9, 적색도는 3.9~11.5, 황색도는 6.5~16.6으로 분포되어 있어 제품들 간에 뚜렷한 차이를 보였다. 아미노태질소 함량은 제품에 따라 342.41~605.92 mg%로 나타났고 MJ2가 가장 높았으며, 유리아미노산 총량은 1,175.3~4,657.7 mg%로 다양하게 분포되어 있었다. 특히 MJ11의 유리아미노산 총량은 4,657.7 mg%로 제품들 중 가장 높았고, 주요 아미노산은 glutamic acid, aspartic acid, alanine, lysine, leucine, isoleucine이었으며, 제품에 따라 GABA 함량이 높게(MJ12, MJ8, MJ4) 나타나기도 하였다. 지방산 총량은 1,598.6~2,874.4 mg%로 MJ10이 가장 높았고, 주요 지방산으로는 linoleic acid, palmitic acid, linolenic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid였으며, 오메가 6 지방산이며 필수지방산인 linoleic acid가 지방산 총량 대비 약 37.7~46.7%를 차지하였다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 제품에 따라 $401.48{\sim}746.67{\mu}g$ GAE/mL로 분포되어 있었고, MJ11이 가장 높은 함량을 보였다. DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거능은 총 폴리페놀 함량이 높은 MJ11, MJ8 및 MJ4가 가장 높았고, SOD 유사 활성은 MJ12 및 MJ2가 가장 높았다. 대장암세포주에 대한 세포 성장 억제 효과는 MJ1과 MJ12가 가장 높았고, 위암세포주에 대해서는 MJ3과 MJ5가, 유방암세포주에 대해서는 MJ5가 가장 높았다. 간세포에 대한 중성지질 축적 억제 효과는 MJ7이 가장 우수하였고, 항고혈압 효과는 MJ11이 가장 높았다. 이상의 결과에서 아미노태질소 함량과 유리아미노산 총량이 높은 막장제품뿐만 아니라, 항산화, 항암, 항고혈압 등의 효과를 보이는 막장 제품들의 주요 원부재료는 메주, 보리, 고추씨 등이었으며(자료 미기입), 이들 원부재료의 배합비에 따라 함량과 효능이 조금씩 다르게 나타났다. 향후 막장제품의 표준 제조방법 및 기준을 마련하기 위해서는 상기 결과들을 기초로 하여 막장 원부료의 정밀분석, 제조원료에 따른 제품들 간의 상관 분석 등 보다 심도 있는 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
