Abstract

Current study was performed to investigate the effect of morphological properties of black ginseng such as size and shape on the quality of black ginseng. The raw ginsengs were separated based on size (medium, large, and extra-large) and shape (straight ginseng, fibrous root ginseng). Subsequently, the raw ginsengs were steamed at $95^{\circ}C$ for 3 h and dried in the presence of heated air at $50^{\circ}C$ for 30 h. This process was repeated nine times for black ginseng production. The physiochemical properties such as the content of acidic polysaccharides, ginsenosides, and antioxidative activity were evaluated. Although minor difference in physiochemical properties such as acidic polysaccharide content in raw ginseng was observed, no statistical difference in the content of acidic polysaccharides, total phenols, and ginsenosides was observed during final black ginseng production based on size classification. The minor ginsenosides in fibrous root black ginseng, such as Rk3, Rh4, Rg3, Rk1, and Rg5 were higher in content than straight black ginseng. However, no correlation between the shape of ginseng and total phenol content and antioxidative activity was observed. Therefore, present results demonstrate that the difference in ginseng size in same-age and -production area does not affect the quality of black ginseng. Furthermore, difference in ginseng shape does not influence the overall quality of black ginseng. It is hypothesized that this study would be considered as supportive data for the production of high-quality black ginseng.

흑삼은 고기능성 신규 인삼제품으로 높은 관심의 대상이 되고 있지만, 흑삼제조와 관련된 기초 연구는 아직 미미한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 원료삼의 외형적 특성이 흑삼제품의 품질에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 동일지역, 동일시기에 수확된 5년근 수삼을 시중에서 구입한 후, 크기별(중, 대, 특대) 또는 형태별(직삼, 난발삼)로 분류하고, 흑삼 제조시의 수율과 당류, 폴리페놀 및 진세노사이드 등 주요 이화학적 성분 및 항산화 활성을 비교하였다. 원료삼의 크기별 이화학적 특성을 살펴본 결과, 흑삼의 산성다당체, 흑삼특이 미량 진세노사이드인 Rk3, Rh4, Rg5, Rk1의 함량은 크기등급 L에서 다소 높았으나, 전체적으로 원료삼의 크기에 따른 흑삼의 이화학적 특성은 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 원료삼의 형태에 따른 흑삼의 이화학적 특성 분석결과에서는 난발삼의 산성다당체, 흑삼 특이 미량 진세노사이드인 Rk3, Rh4, Rg5, Rk1의 함량이 직삼보다 다소 높은 경향을 나타내었으나, 폴리페놀 함량과 항산화 활성은 형태에 따른 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 전반적으로 흑삼 제조 시 원료삼의 크기는 흑삼품질에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 판단되었으나, 원료삼의 형태는 주요 활성성분인 산성다당체, 진세노사이드 함량에 다소 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구결과는 고품질 흑삼제조를 위한 기초자료로 활용 가능할 것이라 기대된다.
