Abstract

To investigate the characteristics of amino acid fortified tofu manufactured by coprecipition of cheese whey and soybean proteins, experimental tofus were made from various mixtures of whey, whey powder, and soy milk, and general and amino acid compositions and physical properties were analyzed. Physical characteristics such as elasticity, hardness, and brittleness of the whey-soybean tofu were very similar to those of traditional tofu but color of the whey-soybean tofu was lighter than that of soybean tofu. The contents of total solids and protein of traditional tofu were about 19% and 13%, respectively, while those of the whey-soy bean tofus were 17.3%$\sim$18.1% and 10.9$\sim$11.3%, respectively. The 5$\sim$15% of lactose in whey-soymilk mixture was transferred into the tofus. The Content of sulfur-bearing amino acids in the fortified tofu from 3 : 1 mixture of whey and soymilk was 3.8g/100g protein which indicated about 50% fortification of the amino acids as compared to the traditional tofu which contained 2. 54g/100g protein of the sulfur-bearing amino acids.

유청(乳淸)과 대두(大豆) 단백질(蛋白質) 공동침전(共同沈澱)에 의해 제조된 아미노산 강화두부(强化豆腐)의 특성(特性)을 조사하기 위하여 유청(乳淸)또는 유청분말(乳淸粉末)과 두유(豆乳)를 혼합하여 두부를 제조하고 이때 얻어지는 강화 두부의 일반조성, 아미노산 조성을 분석하고 물리적 특성도 비교하였다. 강화 두부는 외관이나 특성(特性)에서 재래식 두부와 큰 차이가 없었다. 전고형분 함량은 재래식 두부가 약 19%, 강화 두부가 17.3$\sim$18.1%이고 단백질 함량은 재래식 두부가 13.1% 강화 두부의 경우 10.9$\sim$11.4%로서 모두 재래식 두부가 높았다. 유청의 조지방(粗脂肪) 함량(含量)이 낮으므로 유청의 혼합비율이 높아질수록 두부 중 지방함량은 낮아졌으며 유청(乳淸) 두유(豆乳) 혼합물 중의 유당은 5$\sim$15%가 강화 두부에 이행되었다. 유청과 두유를 3:1로 혼합하여 제조한 경화 두부의 함유황(含硫黃) 아미노산 함량은 3.80g/100g 단백질로서 재래식 두부의 2.54g에 비해 약 50% 강화효과를 보였다.
