Microbiological Studies on the Rice Makkulli (Part 1) Utilization of Rice Makkulli Koji with the Isolated Strain M-80

쌀막걸리의 미생물학적 연구 (제1보) 분리균주 M-80의 쌀막걸리 제국용으로서의 이용성

Six strains of mold which had high saccharifying and acid-productive ability were isolated from wild sources. The strain M-80 among them and Aspergillus kawachii, which was generally used as rice makkulli koji were used for this studies. The results obtained were summarized as follows. 1) $\alpha$-amylase activities of the strain M-80 and Asp, kawachii showed similarly as about 140W. V., while $\beta$-amylase activity of M-80 was 54 A. U. and Asp. kawachii was 40 A. U. 2) Acid protease activity of M-80 was higher then Asp. kawachii but alkaline protease activity was lower Asp. kawachii respectively. 3) The contents of total acid, ethanol and fusel oil in makkulli brewing with M-80 were higher those of Asp. kawachii and methanol contents of the tested two strains were about 33mg/％. 4) Fifteen kinds of free amino acid were detected from makkulli brewing of two strains, and free amino acid contents of M-80 were 10％ higher than those of Asp. kawachii.

자연계에서 분리한 곰팡이 중 전분을 잘 당화하며 산생성력이 강한 한 균주를 선별하여 현재 막걸리 제국용 균종으로 많이 사용되고 있는 백국균(Aspergillus Kawachii)과 비교하여 각종 성분을 경시적으르 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 분리균중 당화력 및 액화력이 비교적 강한 M-80을 공시균으로 선별하였다. 2) 백국균과 분리균의 $\alpha$-amylase 역가는 140W. V.로 비슷하였으나 $\beta$-amylase 역가는 54 A. U. 로 분리균이 높았다. 3) acid protease 역가는 분리균이, alkaline pro-tease 역가는 백국균이 높았다. 4) 총산, ethanol, fusel oil의 생성량은 분리균이 약간 높았으며 methanol 함량은 비슷하였다. 5) 술덧중의 유리 아미노산의 함량은 분리균이 백국균보다 약 10%정도 높았으며, 15종의 유리아미노산이 확인되었다.
