STUDIES ON THE EXTRACTION OF SEAWEED PROTEINS 4. Precipitation Conditions and Nutritional Evaluation of Isolated Seaweed proteins

자원이 풍부한 해조류 단백질의 효율적인 이용과 이의 영양가를 구명하기 위하여 가장 효과적인 정제방법 및 추출용매를 결정하고 4종 식용해조 즉 둥근 돌김, 구멍갈파래, 미역 및 모자반의 추출 정제단백질의 아미노산 조성과 이의 영양가 및 소화율을 실험한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 홍조류와 녹조류는 추출단백질을 TCA로 심전시킨 후 ethylether로 TCA를 충분히 제거하면 정제효과가 좋았고, 갈조류는 등전점을 이용한 정제방법의 효과가 좋았다. 2. 각종 용매로 추출한 단백질의 아미노산을 분석한 결과 홍조류와 녹조류는 물 또는 알칼리 추출한 단백질이 좋았고, 갈조류는 알코올-알칼리 혼합용매로 추출한 단백질이 좋았고, 3. 둥근돌김의 정제단백질은 lyeine의 함량이 전시료 중에서 가장 높았으며 구멍갈파래는 threonine의 함량이 월등히 높은 반면, lysine의 함량이 낮았으며 미역과 모자반의 아미노산 분포 양상은 둥근돌김과 구멍갈파래보다 좋지 못했다. 4. 둥근돌김과 구멍갈파래 원조분말의 chemical score는 35정도였으나 정제단백질은 56정도있고, 미역과 모자반은 원조분말이 $10\~16$정도로 극히 낮은 반면에 정제단백질은 $30\~35$ 정도를 나타내었고, protein score는 전시료가 정제단백질의 경우 $62\~73$ 정도를 나타내었다. 5. PPDRI를 이용한 소화율은 원조분말의 $25\~40$ 정도의 낮은 소화율을 보였으나 정제했을 경우에는 $1.3\~2.1$배 증가함을 보였고, 갈조류의 소화율은 일반적으로 극히 낮음을 알 수 있었다.

For the effective utilization of diverse and abundant resource of seaweeds in Korea as a food protein supplment, extraction conditions of water, salt, and alkali soluble proteins were investigated in previous work(Ryu and Lee, 1977: Lee et al., 1977: Lee et al., 1978). The present study as a part of the serial work was thus aimed to find the conditions of isolation and purification of extracted proteins, and to evaluate the nutritional quality of the isolated seaweed proteins in terms of amino acid composition, chemical score, protein score, modified essential amino acid index(MEAAI), and in vitro digestibility presented as pepsin-pancreatin digest residue index (PPDRI). As for the isolation of extracted proteins, TCA treatment was more effective for the proteins from rhodophyceae and Chlorophyceae while the precipitation at isoelectric point was more desirable for Phaeophyceae proteins. In amino acid composition, water soluble protein fraction was superior to the other fractions in Porphyra suborbiculata whereas both water and alkali soluble fractions seemed to bo more benefitial for Enteromorpha linza and Ulva pertusa; the extraction with alcohol-alkali mixed solvent for Undaria pinnatifida and Sargassum fulvellum. Glutamic acid and aspartic acid content was particularly high in all protein fractions examined. The total amino acid content of Porphyra suborbiculata and Enteromorpha linza was almost equivalent to that of dried whole egg although the essential amino acid content was lower. A comparative analysis was made on the inedexes between raw seaweed powder and isolated protein. Chemical score of Porphyra suborbiculata and Ulva pertusa was approximately 35 and 56 in cafes of raw powder and isolated protein respectively while only 10 to 16 for raw powder of Undaria pinnatifida and Sargassum fulvellum and 30 to 35 for their isolated proteins. Protein score of all isolated proteins was in the range of 63 to 73 which indicates that isolated protein would be mere valuable than the fern of raw seaweed powder. Digestibility by means of PPDRI was found to be extremely low in case of raw powder but it could be doubled in case of isolated protein yielding 67 to 70 for Porphyra suborbiculata and Ulva pertusa.
