Abstract

The antibacterial effects of seed decontamination during presoaking before sprouting as an intervention step for eliminating foodborne pathogens on red radish seeds were evaluated. The effect of seed decontamination on seed germination rate was also evaluated. Red radish seeds were inoculated (at a level of 3 to 4 log CFU/g) with Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 19111 and decontaminated with 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite, 50 and 100 ppm chlorinated water, acidic electrolyzed water, low-alkaline electrolyzed water, and ozonated water for 6 hours. The control seeds were immersed in distilled water. The germination rate was measured on each treatment for 48 hours. Treatments with 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite, acidic and low-alkaline electrolyzed water were more effective than treatments with chlorinated water and ozonated water. Immersion in 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite resulted in the largest microbial reduction (more than 3 logs). Treatments with acidic and low-alkaline electrolyzed water reduced APC by 3 logs and L. monocytogenes counts by 2 logs. After sprouting, APC and L. monocytogenes counts on seeds treated with 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite, acidic and low-alkaline electrolyzed water were significantly lower than the control. The germination rate ranged from 93.5% to 97.7% except for 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite (from 82.3% to 84.8%) after 48 hours. Although the treatments tested in this study will not eliminate L. monocytogenes on inoculated red radish seeds, the results show that rapid growth of surviving cells during sprouting could be prevented if red radish seeds are given a presoak treatment used in combination with a disinfectant treatment of irrigation water.

건강웰빙식품의 하나로서 수요가 증가하고 있는 새싹채소는 미생물학적 관점에서 안전성 확보방안이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 새싹채소의 병원성 미생물을 제거하기 위해 적무종자의 발아 전 침지동안 종자 소독처리에 따른 미생물 제어 효과와 발아율을 평가하였다. L. monocytogenes ATCC 19111가 3~4 log CFU/g의 농도로 접종된 적무 종자는 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite, 50 ppm과 100 ppm 염소수, 오존수, 전해산화수 및 전해환원수로 처리하였으며, 증류수에 침지시킨 종자를 대조군과 비교하였다. 발아율은 각 처리군에 대해 48시간 동안 조사하였다. 일반세균과 L. monocytogenes 모두 20,000 ppm calcium hypochlorite에 침지 후 3 logs 이상의 가장 큰 감소효과를 보였고, 염소수, 전해산화수와 전해환원수 침지 후 일반세균과 L. monocytogenes 수는 각각 3 logs와 2 logs 감소되었으며, 염소수와 오존수를 제외하고는 온도변화에 따른 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 종자 발아 후 일반세균 수는 모든 처리군에서, L. monocytogenes 수는 염소수 50 ppm과 오존수를 제외한 모든 처리군에서 대조군보다 유의하게 낮았으며, 염소수 100 ppm을 제외하고는 온도변화에 따른 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 발아율은 48시간 후 calcium hypochlorite(82.3~84.8%)를 제외하고 다른 모든 소독제 처리 시 93.5~97.7%로 나타났으며 대조군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이 연구에서 사용된 소독제 처리가 적무 종자에 접종된 L. monocytogenes를 완전히 사멸시키지는 못했지만, 발아 동안 재배수의 소독처리가 추가 병행된다면 생존한 균의 급속한 성장을 지연시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
