Abstract

Lactobacillus is a probiotic that suppresses the growth of pathogens while preventing constipation, diarrhea, and intestinal inflammation. However, various environmental conditions such as pH and temperature affect the growth of Lactobacillus. In this study, Lactobacillus plantarum was encapsulated with starch using a spray dryer to protect the viability of the organism during storage and to increase its acid tolerance. The lower water activity and storage temperature resulting from this method influenced the survival of L. plantarum. In encapsulated Lactobacillus powders, viability of Lactobacillus was increased during storage at $20^{\circ}C$ relative to that of L. plantarum stored at $35^{\circ}C$ in the same water activity conditions. Furthermore, L. plantarum encapsulated in starch with ginger showed increased viability when compared to non-encapsulated L. plantarum stored without treatment. Finally, based on a simulated digestion test, encapsulated L. plantarum survived at a pH of 2, whereas the non-encapsulated L. plantarum did not. Thus, coating the encapsulated powder with these materials was effective in maintaining Lactobacillus viability.

본 연구에서는 분무건조법을 이용하여 젖산세균을 녹말로 캡슐화한 분말을 제조하고, 제조한 젖산세균 코팅 분말을 이용하여 다양한 수분활성도에 따른 평형수분함량을 측정하여 등온흡습곡선을 확립하고, pH 및 상대습도, 온도에 따른 젖산세균의 보호 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 젖산세균 코팅 분말의 등온흡습곡선은 수분활성도에 따라 평형수분함량이 빠르게 증가하는 sigmoid형을 나타내었으나 시료간의 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 상대습도에 따라 20, 30, $40^{\circ}C$에서 저장하였을 때, 상대습도가 낮을수록, 저장 온도가 낮을수록 젖산세균의 생존율이 높았으며, 시료들 중 생강을 첨가하여 코팅한 젖산세균 분말의 생존율이 가장 높았다. 75%의 상대습도에서 $20^{\circ}C$$35^{\circ}C$에서 각 4주간 저장 실험한 결과, 코팅하지 않은 젖산세균은 1주 후 사멸한 반면, 코팅한 젖산세균은 유지되었으며 특히 생강을 첨가하였을 경우 젖산세균 보호 효과가 가장 높았다. 소화 모방 실험을 통해 위액의 낮은 pH에서 녹말 코팅의 보호막 효과를 확인하였다. 이를 통해 녹말로 코팅한 젖산세균 분말은 식품 조성물, 식품 첨가용 조성물로 이용 가능하다. 한편, 프로바이오틱스 제품 제조 시 젖산세균이 8-10 log CFU/g 이상 존재해야 하는데, 본 연구에서는 분무건조 후 약 7-8 log CFU/g로 다소 감소하였지만 이는 사료 조성물 또는 사료 첨가용 조성물로 응용이 가능하다고 생각된다.
