We investigated the effects of various washing methods on the quality of semi-dried Pacific saury Cololabis saira, known in Korea as Guamegi. We immersed samples for 5 min in seawater, tap water, chlorinated water (100 mg/kg), ammonia water (100 mg/kg), citric acid (0.1 M), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, 0.2 g/kg), or sesame oil (5 g/100 g), and then dried them in the sun for 3 days. The moisture and crude lipid contents after drying were 26.62-32.49 g/100 g and 26.40-33.01 g/100 g, respectively. The moisture content significantly decreased while the crude lipid content increased during drying. The different washing methods did not have a significant effect on the acidity, peroxide values, or levels of thiobarbituric acid or biogenic amine in Guamegi. The lightness of Guamegi during drying significantly decreased, but this decrease was not significantly different among washing methods. The degree of acceptance in a sensory evaluation was higher for Guamegi treated with sesame oil. Our results suggest that these washing methods should not be used to inhibit lipid oxidation, biogenic amine formation, or color changes in semi-dried Pacific saury, because effective components are extracted by the lipids during drying.

This study reviewed the effect of the drying conditions on the production of biogenic amines and lipid oxidation in semi-dried Pacific saury Cololabis saira or Guamegi. The moisture content of the Guamegi ranged from $32.71{\pm}2.37$ to $45.9{\pm}2.60$ g/100 g. The respective ranges of the acid value (AV) and peroxide value (POV) were $1.39{\pm}0.40$ to $15.79{\pm}0.47$ mg KOH/g and $76.14{\pm}2.19$ to $282.84{\pm}2.34$ meq/kg on drying for 3 days. The AV and POV increased for up to 3 days of drying and the values differed according to the amount of sunlight and temperature. However, lipid oxidation was reduced in Guamegi manufactured using a cold-air drying method. The fatty acid composition and the biogenic amine content in Guamegi during drying did not differ significantly with the drying method or drying date. The main saturated, monoene and polyene fatty acids were palmitic acid, eicosenoic & erucic acids, and eicosapentaenoic & docosahexaenoic acids, respectively. At 16.67 to 71.89 mg/kg, the histamine content was higher than that of other biogenic amines and it increased significantly during drying. In conclusion, this study showed that the packaging and drying conditions of Guamegi products need to be improved to inhibit lipid oxidation and biogenic amine formation.

This study was conducted to investigate the hygienic quality of commercial Kwamegi, a Korean traditional food, made from semi-dried Pacific saury. The hygienic qualities of 10 Kwamegi samples were examined from the 15 commercially available types. Samples with code 3, 4, 6, 11 and 12 were acceptable based on criteria suggested by Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (i.e. moisture below 50%, total mercury below 0.5 ppm, lead below 2.0 ppm, viable cells below $1.0{\times}10^5$ CFU/g and coliform count below $1.0{\times}10^3$ MPN/100g. Peroxide value of commercial Kwamegi ranged from 15.3-104.1 meq/kg. Agmatine sulfate, cadaverine, histamine, tyramine, spermidine, dopamine and spermine were found in all of the 15 commercially available Kwamegi, while tryptamine and 2-phenylethylamine were not detected. Putrescine dihydrochloride was only detected in 7 samples. The histamine content of commercial Kwamegi ranged from 33-124mg/kg, which is believed to be an acceptable limit according to guidelines from other countries. Cadaverine can be used as a potential index for freshness of commercial Kwamegi as there is a good correlation between volatile basic nitrogen and biogenic amine contents.

This study was conducted to characterize the nutrion of commercial Kwamegi, a Korean traditional food made from semi-dried Pacific saury, Cololabis saira. The ratios of saturated and monoenoic fatty acids to polyenoic fatty acids in commercial Kwamegi ranged from 0.52-0.75 and 1.01-1.53, respectively. The major fatty acids in commercial Kwamegi were 16:0 (9.1-14.2%), 20:1n-9 (8.6-16.1%), 22:1n-9 (15.7-22.1%), and 22:6n-3 (11.0-18.0%). The total amino acid content of commercial Kwamegi ranged from 27.10-33.19 g/100 g. The major amino acids in commercial Kwamegi were aspartic acid (11.8-13.0%), glutamic acid (14.3-16.0%), leucine (7.8-8.5%), and lysine (7.5-9.0%), which accounted for more than 41% of the total amino acid content. The mineral content of commercial Kwamegi ranged from 0.7-4.3 mg/100 g for zinc, 279.6-466.3 mg/100 g for potassium, 41.7-128.3 mg/100 g for calcium, 38.8-77.8 mg/100 g for magnesium, and 224.3-348.4 mg/100 g for phosphorus. These results suggest that commercial Kwamegi is a superior food in terms of nutrition and health.

본 연구는 산초 잎의 에탄올 추출물과 초피 과피에서 얻은 정유를 과메기 제조 시 처리하였을 때 산패 억제와 품질 향상 효과를 조사하였다. 산초의 에탄올 추출물(ZS)은 1% 에탄올에, 초피 정유(ZP)는 20% 에탄올에 용해시켜 길이로 2등분하여 탈수시킨 꽁치 1 kg 당 산초 추출물은 0, 0.125, 0.25, 1 ppm 되게, 초피 정유는 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2 ppm 되게 분무하여 과메기를 자연 건조하여 제조하고 다층 필름포장제로 진공 포장하였다. 포장된 과메기를 실험 시까지 -20${^{\circ}C}$에 보관하였다가 개봉한 후 4${^{\circ}C}$ 냉장고에서 1, 3, 7일 보관하며 산패 정도와 아민류의 변화, 관능검사를 실시하였다. 과메기의 산가, 과산화물가 및 TBA값은 개봉 후 보관기간이 길어질수록 증가하였으며 산초 추출물 0.125 ppm 이상, 초피 정유 0.25 ppm에서 효과가 나타났으며 이 효과는 농도 의존적이며 보관기간이 길어질수록 더 뚜렷하였다. 산초 추출물과 초피 정유 처리에 의하여 과메기 내의 dimethylamine과 trimethylamine(TMA)의 증가도 억제하였으며 trimethylamine oxide의 함량은 높게 유지되었고 3일 보관한 과메기에서 TMA<4.5 mg/100 g을 유지시킬 수 있는 산초 추출물의 농도는 0.25 ppm, 초피 정유는 0.5 ppm이었다. 3일 보관된 과메기에 대한 관능검사 결과 초피정유를 0.5-1ppm 처리한 시료에서 가장 좋은 점수를 나타내었다. 결론적으로 소량의 산초추출물과 초피 정유는 과메기의 산패를 억제하여 품질을 개선시키는 효과가 있다고 사료된다.

시판되고 있는 일반 과메기(CK), 키토산을 첨가한 과메기(KAC) 및 금박을 입힌 과메기(KOGL)에 대한 일반성분, 무기질, 비타민, 지방산 및 구성아미노산 함량을 분석하였다. CK, KAC 및 KOGL의 일반성분을 분석한 결과, 수분(26.4~30.8%), 조단백질(29.1~32.7%), 조회분(1.6~1.9%)의 함량은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, KOGL의 조지방 함량은 32.2%로 CK 24.5% 및 KAC 22.9%보다 상당량 높게 나타났다. CK, KAC 및 KOGL의 Ca, Fe, P의 함량은 각각 50.4~59.0 mg/100 g, 1.7~3.3 mg/100 g, 240~290 mg/100 g 범위였고, 비타민 A, $B_2$ 및 C의 함량은 각각 $11{\sim}15\;{\mu}g$, 1.8~2.0 mg 및 6.6~6.7 mg 범위를 나타내었다. 또한 CK, KAC 및 KOGL의 주요 지방산은 DHA, EPA, palmitic acid 및 oleic acid이었고, DHA와 EPA는 전체 지방산 조성 중 각각 21~26% 및 11~13%를 차지하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.한편, CK, KAC 및 KOGL의 주요 구성아미노산으로는 glutamic acid, aspartic acid, glycine, leucine, alanine이었다. 이상의 결과로부터 기능성 성분이 함유된 과메기와 일반 과메기 간에는 영양성분면에서 큰 차이가 없음을 알 수 있었다.
