Changes of Major Constituents by Soaking of Citrus platymamma Peel with Spirit Solution

In order to prepare liqueur of Citrus platymamma, 500 g dried peel was soaked in 10 l (5%, w/v) of $30{\sim}95%$ ethanol concentration for 70 days. Changes in pH was $5.19{\sim}4.80$ with 30% ethanol concentration, and the pH was decreased as ethanol concentration decreases for 10 days after soaking. Color a-value was decreased and color b-value was increased according to higher ethanol concentration. Extract was $2.00{\sim}2.19%$ (w/v) with $30{\sim}70%$ ethanol concentration. Acid content was $0.18{\sim}0.21%$ (v/v) with $30{\sim}70%$ ethanol concentration, while $0.13{\sim}0.15%$ (v/v) with 95% ethanol concentration. The contents of fructose and glucose was increased with lower ethanol concentration, and sucrose content was decreased with longer soaking time. Main flavonoids were narirutin, hesperidin, nobiletin, 3,5,6,7,8,3'4'-methoxylated flavone, and tangeretin. Most flavonoids were extracted more than 80% of ethanol for $3{\sim}5$ days soaking. Total polyphenol was $628.8{\sim}711.2$ ${\mu}g/ml$ with $30{\sim}70%$ ethanol concentration for 20 days soaking. Therefore, to prepare Citrus platymamma peel liqueur, it is necessary to soak the material in $50{\sim}70%$ ethanol concentration for 20 days.

병귤과피의 주정 침출 중 유용성분의 변화

제주산 병귤을 침출주의 소재로 활용하기 위하여 $30{\sim}95%$ 주정농도에 건조과피를 각각 500 g/10 l(5%, w/v) 비율로 첨가하여 70일간 침출특성을 검토하였다. 주정농도 30%에서 pH는 $5.19{\sim}4.80$으로 가장 낮았으며, 침출 후 10일까지 주정농도가 낮을수록 감소하는 경향이었다. 주정농도가 높을수록 색도 a값이 낮아지고, b값이 증가하였다. 가용성고형물은 주정농도 $30{\sim}70%$에서 $2.00{\sim}2.19%(w/v)$로, 지속적으로 증가하는 경향이었다. 산함량은 주정농도 $30{\sim}70%$에서 $0.18{\sim}0.21%(v/v)$로 차이가 거의 없었으며, 주정농도 95%에서는 $0.13{\sim}0.15%(v/v)$였다. 주정농도 낮을수록 fructose와 glucose가 많았으며, 침출기간이 길어질수록 sucrose 함량은 낮았다. 병귤과피의 주요 flavonoid는 narirutin, hesperidin, nobiletin, 3,5,6,7,8,3'4'-methoxylated flavone, tangeretin이었고, 대부분의 flavonoids는 침출 후 $3{\sim}5$일에 80%이상 용출되었다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 주정농도 $30{\sim}70%$로 20일 침출에서 $628.8{\sim}711.2$ ${\mu}g/ml$였으며, 주정원액에서 가장 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 따라서 병귤과피를 침출주 원료로 사용하였을 때, 주정농도 $50{\sim}70%$에서 20일 동안 침출시키는 방법이 효과적이었다.
