Abstract
Ginseng-whey beverages were prepared with rennet whey, ginseng, sweetener, honey and Japanese apricot, inoculated with different strains of lactic acid bacteria or unfermented partly. The samples were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ or 30$\pm$1$0^{\circ}C$ and then physicochemical and microbiological properties were investigated. The yield of whey was 78.8%. The pH-values reduced and acidities increased during the storage period. The contents of solid-substances, ash and lipid in ginseng-whey beverages were 7.90~8.20%, 0.62~0.66% and 0.16%, respectively. The protein contents of ginseng-whey beverages were 0.42~0.56% and the contents were not changed during the storage period. The lactose contents of fermented beverages were higher than those of unfermented beverages. During the storage period (1~5 weeks), the ranges of D(-) - and L(+)- lactic acid contents in fermented ginseng-whey beverages (17.3~156.1 mg/100g, 347.3~1894.2mg/100g) were higher than those of unfermented ginseng-whey beverages (6.2~82.8mg/100g, 7.1~885.5mg/100g). The contents of total saponin in unfermented sample and fermented sample (Lac. casei sub-sp. casei+Str. salivarius sub-sp. thermophilus) were increased during the storage period. But, those of the fermented sample(Lac. acidophilus+Lac. delbrueckii sub-sp. bulgaricus) were reduced. In the electrophoretic results of ginseng-whey beverages, an $\alpha$-lactalbumin and a $\beta$-lactoglobulin bands were shown apparently and there were no changes observed during the storage period. During the storage period (1~3 week) the coliform was not detected and total plate counts and psychrotrophs were increased according to the storage period.
인삼 유청음료를 렌넷유청, 인삼, 감미료, 꿀, 매실 등에 종류가 다른 유산균주들을 접종하여 제조한 후, 일부는 발효시키고 일부는 비발효 상태로 4$^{\circ}C$ 및 30$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$에 저장하여 이화학적 및 미생물학적 특성들을 조사하였다. 유청의 수율은 78.8%였고 저장기간 동안 pH는 감소하였으며 적정산도는 증가하였다. 인삼 유청음료의 고형성분, 회분, 지방질 함량은 각각 7.90~8.20%, 0.62~0.66%, 0.16%이었고 단백질 함량은 0.42~0.56%였으며 저장기간에 따라서 큰 변화가 없었다. 유당함량은 유산균 발효시킨 시료가 발효시키지 않은 시료보다 높았다. D(-)- 및 L(+)- 젖산함략은 저장 기간(1~5주)중에 유산균 발효 인삼 유청 음료(17.3~156.1 mg/100g, 347.3~1894.2mg/100g)는 비발효 인삼 유청음료(6.2~82.8mg/100g, 7.1~885.5mg/100g)보다 높았다. 유산균으로 발효시키지 않은 시료와 Lac. casei sub-sp. casei와 Str. salivarius sub-sp. thermophilus를 접종하여 발효시킨 시료의 총 saponin 함량은 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 증가하는 추세였으나 Lac. acidophilus와 Lac. delbrueckii sub-sp. bulgaricus를 접종한 시료는 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 인삼 유청음료의 전기영동 결과 모든 시료에서 $\alpha$-la과 $\beta$-lg이 뚜렷이 나타났으며 저장기간에 따라 변화가 거의 없었다. 저장기간(제 1, 3주)동안 대장균군은 검출되지 않았으며 총세균수와 저온성 세균군은 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 증가하였다.
