초록

본 연구에서는 경기(용인, 안성, 광주) 및 강원지역(오대산)에서 재래식 방법으로 제조된 청국장을 수집하여 지역별 발효 균주들의 동정과 특성분석 및 당 발효능을 조사하였다. 수집된 청국장에서 22종류의 균주를 분리하였고, 16S rDNA의 서열을 분석한 결과 이들은 대부분 Bacillus subtilis, B. licheniformis로 동정되었다. 경기지역의 주요 발효 균주는 B. subtilis와 B. licheniformis, 강원 지역은 B. licheniformis로 동정되었으며, 일반적인 생장 특성은 $5{\sim}7$시간의 유도기를 지나 $23{\sim}40$시간 이후에 휴지기로 접어들었다. 휴지기에 접어든 분리 균주들의 최대 생장 총 균수는 $1{\times}10^6\;CFU/ml$$5{\times}10^7\;CFU/ml$ 사이에 있었다. 균주들 간 당 발효능의 차이에 있어서 용인 지역은 D-xylose, xylitol, D-tagatose, Methyl-$\alpha$-D-mannopyranoside가, 안성은 D-lactose, D-tagatose, D-xylose, Methyl-$\alpha$-D-mannopyranoside, amygdalin, arbutin, esculin, 2-keto-gluconate가, 광주는 L-rhamnose, inositol, D-mannitol, D-sorbitol, celibiose, gluconate가, 그리고 오대산은 D-lactose에서 좋은 당 발효능을 보였다.

Traditionally fermented Cheonggukjangs were collected from Gyeonggi and Gangwon provinces and 22 strains were isolated and identified by using 165 rDNA sequences. Most of the identified strains were Bacillus subtilis and B. licheniformis, B. subtilis and B. licheniformis are dominant in the Gyeonggi area and B. licheniformis in the Gangwon area. In the growth pattern of the isolated strains, the duration of lag phase was generally 5 to 7 hours and stationary phase was reached after 23 to 40 hours of incubation. Total cell populations at the stationary phase were between $1{\times}10^6\;CFU/ml$ and $5{\times}10^7\;CFU/ml$. The fermenting ability of carbohydrates of isolates showed some differences among the regions. The isolated strains from Yong-In, Gyeonggi showed higher fermenting abilities with D-xylose, xylitol, D-tagatose and Methyl-$\alpha$-D-mannopyranoside. D-lactose, D-tagatose, D-xylose, Methyl-$\alpha$-D-mannopyranoside, amygdalin, arbutin, esculin and 2-keto-gluconate were well fermented with the An-Seong's strains; L-rhamnose, inositol, D-mannitol, D-sorbitol, celibiose and gluconate with the Kawang-Ju's stains; and D-lactose with the Odaesan's strains.
