콩 가수분해물의 기능성 강화를 위하여 콩분말 및 SPI에 4종의 protease를 처리하여 가수분해물의 특성을 조사하였다. 수율은 protease(B)를 처리하였을 때 콩분말에서 43.2%, SPI에서 61.6%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 용해도와 총페놀성 물질은 protease(B)와 (C)처리구에서 크게 증가하였으며, 칼슘내인성은 protease(B)를 처리하였을 때 향상되었다. 콩분말에서 콩 특유의 비린내는 protease처리로 감소하였으나 콩분말과 SPI 모두 protease 처리로 쓴맛이 강해졌으며 protease의 종류에 따른 차이는 확인되지 않았다. 가수분해물의 수율을 비롯한 이화학적 특성을 감안할 때, protease (B)가 가수분해물 제조에 적합하였으며, 가수분해물의 활용 형태에 따라 관능적 특성의 보완이 요구되었다.
In order to produce functional soy hydrolysates, we investigated the characteristics of soy hydrolysates prepared with 4 kinds of commercial proteases. The yield was high in protease(B), in which 43.2% soy flour and 61.6% SPI were obtained. The solubility and the contents of total phenolic compound were greatly increased by the treatment of protease(B) along with protease(C). The calcium intolerance was improved after the protease(B) treatment in soy flour or Soybean Protein isolate (SPI). Consideration for the physicochemical characteristics including yield, protease(B) has potential application for the production of soy hydrolysates. After the protease treatment, the beany flavor of soy flour became weak and the bitter taste was strong in both soy flour and SPI. However, there was no difference of beany flavor and bitter taste among delete protease hydrolysates. Nevertheless, further modifications and improvements to the sensory characteristics would be required for the development of a range of products with the hydrolysate.
