  • Sugar solutions (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) were tested by seven sensors of Astree E-Tongue for selecting a sensor for sweetness. NMS sensor was chosen as a sensor for sweetness among two sensors (PKS and NMS sensors selected in first stage) by considering precision, linearity and accuracy. Sugar, fructose, glucose and xylitol (5%, 10% and 15%) were tested by E-tongue. The principal component analysis (PCA) result by E-Tongue with seven sensors at 5% concentration level of four sweetners was not satisfactory (Discrimination index was -0.1). On the other hand, the relative NMS sensor response values were derived as 1.08 (fructose), 0.99 (glucose) and 1.00 (xylitol) comparing to sugar. Only the E-Tongue relative glucose response 0.99 was different from 0.5~0.75 of the relative sweetness range reported as the human sensory test results. Considering the excellent precision (%RSD, 1.53~3.64%) of E-Tongue using NMS single sensor for three types of sweeteners compared to sugar in the concentration range of 5% to 15%, replacing sensory test of sweetened beverages by E-Tongue might be possible for new product development and quality control.

  • This study examined physiological activity of aronia chung with or without aspartame. High sugar content of food is recognized to induce chronic disease including diabetes and obesity. Sugar was replaced with aspartame to develop low-sugar aronia chung containing 0%, 25%, 50% and 75% aspartame based on sugar content of control in the study. Sweetness was the similar in the chungs with 0%, 25% and 50% aspartame but it was lower in the chung with 75% aspartame. pH was the highest in aronia chung with 75% aspartame as 2.95. Total phenolic content was the highest in aronia chung with 50% aspartame but it was not significantly different with 75% one. Flavonoid content increased with addition of aspartame and it was the highest in the chung with 75% aspartame as 206.60 ㎍ QEAC/mL. Reducing power also showed the same aspect with flavonoid content. However DPPH radical scavenging ability was the highest in aronia chung without aspartame and lowest in the chung with 75% aspartame. This result implies that the addition of aspartame could sustain the sweetness and improve the physiological activity of food at the same time although there is some limitation.

Stable expression and characterization of brazzein, thaumatin and miraculin genes related to sweet protein in transgenic lettuce (감미단백질 관련 브라제인, 타우마틴 및 미라쿨린 유전자를 이용한 형질전환 상추 육성 및 발현분석)

  • Sweetener is one of the additives that makes you feel sweet. Artificial sweeteners and sugar are typical examples, and sweetness proteins with sweetness characteristics have been widely studied. These studies elucidated the transformation lettuce cells with Agrobacterium method for stable production of natural sweet proteins, brazzein, thaumatin, and miraculin. In this paper, we report use of a plant expression system for production of sweet proteins. A synthetic gene encoding sweet proteins was placed under the control of constitutive promoters and transferred to lettuce. High and genetically stable expression of sweetener was confirmed in leaves by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Sweet proteins expressed in transgenic lettuce had sweetness-inducing activity. Results demonstrate recombinant sweet proteins correctly processed in transgenic lettuce plants, and that this production system could be a viable alternative to production from the native plant.

  • This study examined low calorie sweeteners (fractooligosaccharide, xylitol, erythritol, agave syrup, stevioside) instead of sugar for $Teriyaki$ sauce to satisfy customers' health needs. After adding sugar, stevioside, agave syrup, erythritol, xylitol, and fractooligosaccharide to $Teriyaki$ sauce, we measured moisture and viscosity. According to the results, the sauce with stevioside had a low moisture content, but its value was the highest in viscosity. The sauce with xylitol had average sweetness equal to that of sugar, but its salinity was very low. There was no significant difference in pH value. The difference in sweet taste showed that the sauce with xylitol met the requirement of sweet taste, soy sauce flavor, taste and savory taste. Therefore, xylitol was a good ingredient for $Teriyaki$ sauce.

  • The edible sweetener aspartame is formed from the synthesis of asparagine, one of the amino acids, and phenylalanine. It is a protein ingredient that produces sweetness 200 times higher than sucrose, and is used as a diet product because it is a substance that can replace sugar. Although the effects on animals and humans have been well studied, no studies have been conducted on plant metabolism. In this study, the effect of aspartame metabolism was tested using germinated onion, bean sprouts, and Kalanchoe. The three types of plants with germinated roots showed rapid growth in the early stage of treatment with 1mM aspartame, and showed a nutrient supply effect due to the effect of amino acids, which are constituents. However, when treated for 4 weeks, symptoms similar to lateral roots appear in the form of lignification in onions, the effect of quickly withering is seen in bean sprouts, and senescence of roots appears in 12-week-old Kalanchoe. All of them show accelerated aging after the growth phase. This shows that, among the two amino acids, asparagine is related to auxin generation that induces rapid growth, and it is thought to be the result of lignification due to the effect of phenylalanine.

  • The study examined the kinds of sweeteners(xylitol, sorbitol, acesulfame K, aspartame, stevioside) instead of sugar for vanilla sauce to satisfy customers' health needs. According to the results, the sauce with sugar had lowest salinity, highest sugar content, and sauce with aspartame had lowest sugar content. pH were highest in sauce with sorbitol, with aspartame were lowest. L-value, a-value was the highest in sauce with aspartame, while b-value was the lowest. The moisture content was the lowest, while viscosity was the highest in the sauce with xylitol. In a sensory evaluation, texture and overall preference was the highest in vanilla sauces with aspartame which have proper color intensity and strong flavor in mouth feel. The result indicated that health-oriented consumers and satisfy the health of modern people's needs when using the vanilla sauce with aspartame instead of sugar. It is also advised to vanilla sauce with aspartame for preventing adult disease and using the diets for patient.
