국내 산지별 참기름의 HPLC에 의한 Sesamin, Sesamol의 함량과 Villavecchia-suarez 정색반응

Sesamin and Sesamol Contents of Korean Sesame Oils Determined by HPLC Method and Villavecchia-suarez Color Reaction of the Oils

In the present study the sesamin and sesamol contents of the sesame extracts prepared from nine provinces in Korea were determined HPLC method. A comparative test was also carried out using the Villavecchia-suarez test, the red colored reaction for the sesamol and sesamol derivatives. The contents of sesamin and sesamol of the sesame oils from each area by the HPLC method were 0.57~0.78% and 0.010-0.023%, respectively. and the paralled results were obtained by the Villavecchia-suarez test and the HPLC method. The average contents of the sesamin was $0.68{\pm}0.074%$ by the HPLC method and the average absorbance of the Villavecchia-suarez test was $0.56{\pm}0.034$. The contents of sesamol from sesame oil by the HPLC method and the Villavecchia-suarez test were so low that it was not possible to correlate with the sesamin contents. The contents of sesamol from the sesame oil produced in Kyeong-gi and Jeon-nam provinces were $0.010{\pm}0.002%$ and $0.023{\pm}0.004$, respectively.
