Abstract

In the modified atmosphere packaging of powdered infant formula, the oxygen inside the package may cause its quality deterioration and needs to be minimized for quality preservation. A way of oxygen scavenger inclusion in the single-serve package without contacting the product was devised for removing oxygen residing initially and permeating through the seal layer during the storage. A polyethylene/pulp multi-layer porous filter bag of 5 × 7 cm containing 13 g of powdered infant formula was packaged in an 8 × 9 cm size aluminium laminated film package with a Fe-based oxygen scavenger of 1.8 g. After nitrogen flushed packaging, the active packages were stored at 30℃ for 254 days with periodical quality measurement. The active package could remove the initial residual oxygen of 1.4% completely and maintain absence of oxygen for the whole storage, which contributed to reduced oxidation observed in lower product peroxide value compared to that of the product in the control package. There was no influence of packaging treatment on content of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, reaction product of initial nonenzymatic browning. The devised oxygen-scavenging single-serve package showed a potential to improve the preservation of infant formula powder and extend the shelf life.

질소 치환한 소용량 조제분유 포장에서 초기 잔존 산소와 저장 중 투과 유입되는 산소를 제거하여 추가적인 산화 방지 효과를 얻고자 산소흡수제를 함입하는 포장을 구성 설계하였다. 조제분유 13 g을 담은 5 × 7 cm의 폴리에틸렌/펄프 다층 세공성 여과 봉지와 함께 산소흡수제를 8 × 9 cm의 알루미늄 적층 필름 포장에 넣은 후, 질소 기체로 치환포장하여 30℃에서 254일 동안 저장하였고, 같은 조건에서 산소흡수제가 함입되지 않은 대조구 포장 조건과 비교하였다. 산소흡수제는 조제분유와 직접적인 접촉을 하지 않으면서도 포장 내부의 산소를 전량 흡수할 수 있었으며 산소의 제거에 따른 산화 방지로 인하여 이산화탄소 발생을 보이지 않았다. 전 저장기간 동안 대조구 포장 제품에 비하여 산소흡수제 함입 포장의 제품에서는 0.7~2.2 meq/kg 만큼의 낮은 과산화물가를 보여서 조제분유 포장에서 산소흡수제의 산화 지연 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 초기 갈변지표 물질인 HMF 함량은 두 처리구간 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 본 연구의 산소흡수제 함입 조제분유 포장은 소용량 포장의 유통기한을 연장하고 제품 품질을 향상시킬 수 있는 가능성을 제공하였다.
