Abstract

To defend putrifaction of the processed rice cake from gas-forming yeast during storage and distribution it needed to reduce and remove them. The sanitizers of ethanol and organic acids were applied on Pichia anomala, Candida tropicalis, and isolated yeasts from the putrified cut rice cake. Although growth inhibition effect by the sanitizer of 20% ethanol, 1% acetic acid, or 1% lactic acid respectively were very low, the combined sanitizer of 20% ethanol and 1% acetic acid, or 1% lactic acid showed very high sterilizing effect toward the yeasts. Six log cfu/ml of the yeast was reduced with this combined sanitizers for 30 minutes. In addition, the combined sanitizer heated from 20 to $50^{\circ}C$ had more the increased sterility. Therefore, the sanitizer of the combined ethanol with the acetic acid or the lactic acid for 30 minutes at $50^{\circ}C$ might reduce or sterilize the putrifying yeast at the processed rice cake. The result might be also applied to the effective pre-treatment of many agricultural food stuffs, against yeast, especially unsterilized stuffs, without any hazards from the special sanitizers and nutritional loss from harsh sterilization.

비살균 가공 쌀가공품의 오염미생물을 제거/불활성화하는 제어기술을 개발하여 쌀 가공식품에서 가스발생 효모에 의한 저장유통성 문제를 개선하고자 하였다. 부패된 떡볶이용 쌀가공품에서 부패효모를 직접 분리한 후 Pichia anomala, Candida tropicalis등과 같이 에탄올과 유기산의 항미생물제를 처리하여 생육저해를 분석하였다. 20% 에탄올, 1% 아세트산, 혹은 1% 젖산을 각각 처리하면 효모의 생육저해현상이 크지 않았으나 이 에탄올에 각각의 유기산을 혼합하면 효모의 생육저해가 현저함을 알 수가 있었다. 이와 같은 처리제로 30분간 처리에 의하여 효모숫자를 6 log cfu/ml까지 저감화 할 수가 있었다. 아울러 이 복합위생처리제의 온도를 $20^{\circ}C$에서 $50^{\circ}C$로 높혀서 처리하면 그 살균효과가 더 커지는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 $50^{\circ}C$의 20% 에탄올과 1%의 아세트산 혹은 젖산으로 30분간 처리하면 쌀 가공품의 초기 부패균인 효모의 생육을 저해할 수 있을 것으로 보인다. 이러한 결과는 특별한 살균처리 없이 저장유통중인 식품소재의 효모에 의한 품질저하를 줄이는데 활용될 수 있으리라 사료된다.
