초록

강황 (Curcuma longa L.) 색소의 curcuminoid 성분인 curcumin (CUR), demethoxycurcumin (DEM), bisdemethoxy-curcumin (BIS)의 정량분석을 위해 유의성있는 검량선$(r^2=0.9999**)$을 작성하였다. 사용된 HPLC는 역상칼럼을 장착하고 420nm의 UV 검출조건, 그리고 이동상으로 acetonitrile: $0.1\%$ acetic acid /water의 50 : 50 혼합용액을 이용하는 조건으로 분석조건이 확립되었다. 국내 6개 지역에서 재배된 강황들의 색소성분 함량분석 결과, CUR가 91.6mg/g으로 가장 높았으며 DEM은 56.9 mg/g이고 BIS는 23.0 mg/g으로 가장 낮게 나타났으며 총량은 평균 171.5 mg/g이었다. 강황 색소추출물의 저장시기별 색소성분의 함량 변화를 조사한 결과 $-20^{\circ}C$ 냉동저장은 거의 손실이 없었으나 상온저장은 60일 이후 급격한 감소율을 보였다. 저장 90일째의 색소성분은 암조건에서 약 $50\%$, 명조건에서 약 $30\%$만이 남아 있어 curcuminoid색소성분은 빛과 온도에 의해 분해가 촉진되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Three curcuminoids [curcumin (CUR), demethoxycurcumin(DEM), bisdemethoxycurcu in (BIS)] are major yellow pigments in turmleric (Curcuma longa L.) root. Contents of curcuminoids in turmeric roots collected from 6 locations were analyzed using, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with reversed-phase column, an UV-Vis detector at 420nm, and eluted with a mixture of acetonitrile: $0.1\%$ acetic acid in water (50 : 50, v/v) as mobile phase. The stability of curcuminoid pigments in $80\%$ methanol extract solution were investigated during storage in a freezer at $-20^{\circ}C$, room temperature in the dark, and light condition. Calibration curves for the determination of curcuminoids were made with significant linearity $(r^2=0.999**)$. Average content of total curcuminoids was 171.5 mg/g, with 91.6 mg/g of CUR, 56.9 mg/g of DEM, and 23.0 mg/g of BIS. Amount of curcuminoids during storage in a freezer was almost not changed while those in room temperature wert reduced and rapid degradation appeared after 60 days. Within 90 days, about $50\%$ curcuminoid decreased in the dark and about $70\%$ in the light condition, indicating the decomposition of curcuminoid pigments followed under light and heat.
