Abstract

In an effort to characterize the physicochemical properties and microbial risks associated with the soy sauce jangachi (Korean traditional pickle), 15 different home-made products, which were prepared from medicinal plants and wild edible vegetables, from head-families of Andong, Kyungsangbuk-do Province in Korea, and 6 different commercial products sold at supermarket, were investigated. The average pH of the mature soaking solutions and plants soaked in the 21 jangachi were $3.99{\pm}0.38$ and $3.51{\pm}0.41$, and the average acidity of the mature soaking solutions and soaked plants were $1.59{\pm}0.54$ and $1.65{\pm}0.76$, respectively. The average brix of the mature soaking solutions and plants soaked were $27.67{\pm}8.38$ and $25.61{\pm}6.60$, respectively. In salinity, which is a major factor in jangachi industry production, the average salinity of the mature soaking solutions and soaked plants were $7.55{\pm}3.26$ and $5.75{\pm}2.23$, respectively. In particular, the hot-peppers, eusuri, du-rup, kaet-ip, kuji-ppong, myeng-i and sancho jangachi were amongst the home-made products, and the salinity was above 8.8%, which was 2 folds-higher than that of the commercial sterilized products, and 1/3-lower than commercial non-sterilized products. The color difference and turbidity of jangachi were dependent on the plant parts used. In microbial risk assessment, the microorganisms related with food-borne disease, such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp, and Shigella sp., were not detected. After some time, total cell count analysis revealed that the commercial products sold at supermarkets were more vulnerable than the home-made products.

본 연구에서는 안동지역의 종가에서 약용식물 및 산채류를 재료로 전통방식으로 제조된 장아찌 15종 및 대형마트에서 판매되는 장아찌 6종을 대상으로 장아찌의 물리화학적 특성과 미생물학적 위해성을 검토하였다. 21종 장아찌의 절임액 및 절임육의 평균 pH는 $3.99{\pm}0.38$$3.51{\pm}0.41$로 절임육에서 더욱 낮은 pH를 나타내었으며, 절임액 및 절임육의 평균 산도는 각각$1.59{\pm}0.54$$1.65{\pm}0.76$으로 나타났다. 장아찌의 절임액 및 절임육의 평균 brix는 $27.67{\pm}8.38$$25.61{\pm}6.60$으로 절임액에서 약간 높은 값을 나타내었으며, 장아찌에서 문제가 되고 있는 평균 염도(%)는 절임액 및 절임육에서 각각 $7.55{\pm}3.26$$5.75{\pm}2.23$으로 나타났다. 특히 청양고추, 두릅, 어수리, 깻잎, 꾸지뽕, 명이 및 산초 장아찌 절임액에서는 8.8% 이상의 높은 염도를 나타내어, 대형마트의 살균 장아찌 제품보다 2배 이상의 염도를 나타내었다. 그러나 대형마트의 비살균 장아찌 제품의 평균 염도는 $12.45{\pm}0.92$$9.10{\pm}3.25$로 민간제조 장아찌보다 더욱 높게 나타났다. 21종 장아찌의 색차와 탁도를 측정한 결과, 평균 명도, 적색도 및 황색도는 각각 $31.03{\pm}7.54$, $8.03{\pm}5.09$$19.12{\pm}4.16$으로 나타났으며, 색차와 탁도는 절임육의 물리적 특성을 반영하고 있었다. 미생물학적 위해평가에서는 21종 장아찌 모두에서 식중독 유해균은 검출되지 않았으며, 총 균수 측정에서는 민간 전통방식으로 제조된 장아찌에 비해 대형마트에서 판매되는 장아찌가 상대적으로 취약하여, 이에 대한 미생물학적 위해관리가 필요함을 확인하였다.
