Abstract

The aim of this study is to provide the basic data for yacon [Samallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. & Endl.) H. Robinson] in dietary food. The nutritional compositons, such as protein, ash, carbohydrate, dietary fiber, vitamin and fructooligosaccharide, were analyzed for 4 yacon germplasm lines. Yacon has low calories with only 46~56 kcal/100 g. The contents of water, fat, ash, protein, carbohydrate and dietary fiber were ranged 85.9~86.8%, 0.1~0.2%, 0.2~0.3%, 0.5~0.7%, 12.2~13.1% and 1.05~1.14%, respectively. The iodine-starch test did not show any color or precipitation reaction, which indicates that yacon has no starch content. However, in the absence of starch, yacon is rich in fluctooligosaccharide, which is between 9.6~11.1%. Maltose is present in the larger amount, followed by sucrose, glucose, and fructose in terms of free sugars. The analysis of minerals revealed that yacon contains potassium in the larger amount of 141~176 mg/100 g F.W., followed by magnesium at 8.2~10.6 mg, calcium, and sodium representing the least present mineral. Yacon proved to have a total of 17 types of amino acids, which are between 404.0~581.8 mg per 100 g of yacon. Glutamic acid, the main sweetening component, is present in the large amount of 94.0~182.2 mg/100 g F.W., followed by aspartic acid, arginine, and alanine. The proportion of the essential amino acid was 24.8~33.6%. Results of analysis also showed that yacon contains 0.001~0.024 mg, 0.03~0.11 mg, 0.02~0.3 mg, 0.3~0.4 mg and 14.1~20.6 mg of ${\beta}$-carotene, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and ascorbic acid, respectively. It is also likely to be highly used as functional food material in the future because it is abundant in both fluctooligosaccharide and antioxidants which are important functional components.

야콘을 다양한 기능성 식품 소재로 활용할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하고자 유전자원 4계통을 대상으로 단백질, 회분, 탄수화물, 식이섬유, 비타민, 프락토올리고당 등의 영양 성분 및 기능성 성분을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 야콘은 열량 46~56 kcal로 칼로리가 낮았다. 일반성분은 수분함량이 85.9~86.8%, 지방 0.1~0.2%, 회분 0.2~0.3%, 단백질 0.5~0.7% 및 탄수화물 12.2~13.1% 함유하였으며 총 식이섬유 함량은 1.05~1.14%였다. 야콘은 요오드-녹말반응을 조사한 결과, 색소반응이나 침전 반응이 일어나지 않아 전분이 없었다. 그러나 야콘은 프락토올리고당이 9.6~11.1%로 많이 함유되어 야콘의 고형물은 전분 대신 프락토올리고당 형태로 저장되는 것으로 나타났다. 유리당은 말토스가 가장 많았고, 다음으로 수크로스, 글루코스, 프럭토스 순으로 검출되었다. 무기질을 분석한 결과, 칼륨 함량이 141~176 mg/100 g으로 가장 많았으며, 마그네슘이 8.2~10.6 mg/100 g였고 다음으로 칼슘 순으로 검출되었고 나트륨은 미량으로 나타났다. 구성 아미노산의 총 함량은 생체 100 g을 기준으로 404.0~581.8 mg으로 총 17종의 아미노산이 검출되었다. 단맛의 주요 성분인 글루탐산이 94.0~182.3 mg/100 g로 가장 많았으며 아스파틱산, 아르기닌, 알라닌 순으로 많이 포함되어 있었다. 총 아미노산에 대한 필수 아미노산의 비율은 24.8~33.6%로 나타났다. 분석 결과, 비타민으로는 카로틴 0.001~0.024 mg, 티아민(비타민 $B_1$) 0.03~0.11 mg, 리보플라빈(비타민 $B_2$) 0.02~0.03 mg, 니아신(비타민 $B_3$) 0.3~0.4 mg, 아스코르브산(비타민 C) 14.1~20.6 mg이 들어있었다. 야콘 유전자원 수집계통별 영양성분을 분석한 결과, HYL2는 무기질이 풍부하고, HYL3는 식이섬유와 비타민이 풍부한 것으로 나타났다.
