The formation of N-Nitrosamine in Commercial Cured Products 2. The effect of cooking methods on N-Nitrosamine formation in commercial Ham and Sausages

시판 식육제품 중 N-Nitrosamine의 생성 제2보. 조리방법이 햄 및 소시지의 N-Nitrosamine 생성에 미치는 영향

Representive cured products such as ham and sausage produced in Korea were purchased at retail and cooked using heating tools such as a gas range (GR), an electric range (ER) and electric range after boiled (BE). Changes of N-nitrosamine (NA), nitrate and nitrite in the cured meats containing< $2.0\;\mu\textrm{g}/kg$ of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) were checked and analyzed during their cooking process. Contents of nitrate and nitrite in ham products prior to cooking were 2.0 and 1.8 mg/kg, respectively; their contents in regular hams were slightly increased, but those of nitrate in press hams were decreased while those of nitrite were increased during its cooking process. Their contents in sausage products were 1.8 and 0.9 mg/kg; those of nitrate were decreased, while nitrite were slightly increased during its cooking process. NDMA detected only NA in all the collected cured products. Changes of NDMA, regardless of cooking methods, tend to drastically increase in all samples after their cooking; Its contents were increased by average 6.0~70.7 times in the GR samples, by average 2.4~39.2 times in the ER samples and by average 7.0~56.3 times in the BE samples. Virtually, the fact that all of this nitrosamine appeared to arise by the action of precursor such as NOx was produced during the cooking of cured products.

조리방법이 시판 햄 및 소시지의 NA 생성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 가스레인지 (GR), 전자레인지 (ER) 및 데친 후 전자레인지(BE)로 조리하였을 때 생성되는 NA를 GC-TEA로 분석하였고, 동시에 NA 생성에 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단된 질산염 및 아질산염도 분석하였다. 조리 전 햄의 질산염 및 아질산염질소의 함량은 각각 2.0, 1.8mg/kg이었으나 조리과정 중 단일 햄에서는 미량 증가하였고, 혼합햄에서 질산염질소는 감소하였으나 아질산 염질소는 증가하였다. 소시지의 질산염 및 아질산염 질소는 각각 1.8, 0.9mg/kg이었으며 조리과정 중 질산염질소는 감소한 반면 아질산염질소는 미량 증가하였다. 햄과 소시지 모두에서 NA는 NDMA만이 검출되었는데 조리방법에 관계없이 모두 조리과정 중 증가하는 경향을 보였고 가스레인지로 조리한 경우는 평균 6.0~70.7배, 전자레인지 및 데친후 전자레인지로 조리한 경우는 각각 평균 2.4~39~2, 7.0~56.3배 증가하였다.
