Analysis of Volatile Compounds in Bamboo and Wood Crude Vinegars by the Solid-Phase Microextracion(SPME) Method

Volatile compounds in three different kinds of crude vinegars obtained from oak (Quercus serrata), bamboo (phyllostachys) and pine (Pinus densiflora) species were analyzed by the solid-phase microextraction (SPME) method. A total of 264 peaks were detected on the chromatograms obtained from the polar (CBP 20) and the nonpolar (CBP 1) columns, which were used for analyzing the volatile compounds in these vinegars. The major volatile compounds identified by using the polar column were 2-butanone, acetic acid, guaiacol, phenol, cresols, 4-ethyl guaiacol, 4-ethyl phenol, and syringol. Using the nonpolar column, seven compounds could be identified: 1,2-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol, 1-hydroxy-2-butanone, 1-(2-furanyl)-1-propane, ethisolide, furfuryl acetate, 1,2-dimethoxybenzene, phenyl acetate. The volatile compounds were classified into five groups: phenols, neutral compounds, organic acids, esters and others. The phenols were the main component and comprised 49~65% of the volatile compounds of these vinegars. In the case of bamboo vinegar, the proportion of the phenols in the volatile compounds was lower than that of the two wood vinegars. However, the proportions of the neutral compounds and the organic acids were higher than those of the wood vinegars. Therefore, it seems that these differences of the proportions of the volatile compounds would make a certain difference of a smoke flavor between the bamboo vinegar and the wood vinegars.

SPME법에 의한 죽초 및 목초액 중의 휘발성 성분 분석

졸참나무 (Quercus serrata), 맹종죽 (Phyllostachys pubescens) 및 소나무 (Pinus densiflora)로부터 제조한 미정제 초액의 휘발성 성분을 고상(固相) 미량추출(solid phase microextraction; SPME)법을 이용하여 분석하였다. 이들 초액 중의 휘발성화합물 분석을 위하여 극성 (CBP 20) 및 무극성 (CBP 1) 칼람을 사용하였으며, 이로부터 총 264개의 피크를 검출하였다. 이들 성분들 중 주요 화합물은 2-butanone, acetic acid, guaiacol, phenol, 4-ethyl guaiacol, cresol류, 4-ethyl phenol, 그리고 syringol이었다. 무극성 칼람을 사용함에 의하여 7개의 성분, 즉, 1-hydroxy-2-butanone, ethisolide, furfuryl acetate, 1-(2-furanyl)-1-propane, 1,2-dimethoxybenzene, 1,2-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol, phenyl acetate를 새로이 동정할 수 있었다. 이 성분들 중 페놀류가 주성분이었으며, 휘발성 성분의 49~65%를 차지하였다. 죽초액의 경우 페놀류의 비율은 다른 두 목초액보다 낮았다. 그러나 중성화합물류 및 유기산류는 소나무 및 졸참나무로부터 제조한 목초액보다 그 비율이 더 높았다. 따라서 이들 죽초액과 목초액 간의 훈취의 차이는 목초액의 서로 다른 휘발성분의 함유량의 차이에 기인한다고 생각된다.
