Description

本発明は、熱や光によるクロロフィル含有食品の変色を抑制するための、クロロフィル含有食品用品質保持剤に関する。また、本発明は熱や光によるクロロフィル含有食品の変色を抑制する、クロロフィル含有食品の品質保持方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a chlorophyll-containing food quality-preserving agent for suppressing discoloration of chlorophyll-containing foods caused by heat or light. Moreover, this invention relates to the quality maintenance method of the chlorophyll containing foodstuff which suppresses discoloration of the chlorophyll containing foodstuff by heat or light.

抹茶やブロッコリー、インゲンマメ、枝豆、アスパラガス等の緑色野菜に含まれるクロロフィルは、一般にマグネシウムがテトラピロール環中心に配位した構造をしており、安全性の高い緑色色素として食品、化粧料等の着色に利用されている。   Chlorophyll contained in green vegetables such as matcha, broccoli, green beans, green soybeans, asparagus, etc., generally has a structure in which magnesium is coordinated at the center of the tetrapyrrole ring, and as a safe green pigment such as food and cosmetics. It is used for coloring.

しかしながら、クロロフィルは加熱や光(特に紫外線)照射により分解し、変色を引き起こしやすい。このような安定性の問題により、クロロフィルの用途や使用条件は制限されている。そのため、クロロフィルの安定化のための品質保持剤や品質保持方法が種々提案されている。   However, chlorophyll decomposes when heated or irradiated with light (particularly ultraviolet rays) and easily causes discoloration. Due to such stability problems, the use and use conditions of chlorophyll are limited. Therefore, various quality preservation agents and quality preservation methods for stabilizing chlorophyll have been proposed.

特許文献1には、炭酸マグネシウムを添加することにより、変色が抑制された茶そばの製造方法が記載されている。クロロフィルの分解はマグネシウムとテトラピロール環との配位構造が崩れることが原因の一つと考えられている。従って、特許文献1のように、炭酸マグネシウムのようなマグネシウム源を添加することで、クロロフィルの分解を抑制することが可能である。しかしながら、マグネシウム源の添加だけでは変色を十分に抑制することができず、さらにアスコルビン酸Naを加えてpHを7.0〜8.0に調整した場合であっても、その変色抑制効果は未だ不十分であった。   Patent Document 1 describes a method for producing tea buckwheat in which discoloration is suppressed by adding magnesium carbonate. The decomposition of chlorophyll is considered to be one of the causes due to the collapse of the coordination structure between magnesium and the tetrapyrrole ring. Therefore, like patent document 1, it is possible to suppress decomposition | disassembly of chlorophyll by adding a magnesium source like magnesium carbonate. However, the addition of the magnesium source alone cannot sufficiently suppress the discoloration, and even when the pH is adjusted to 7.0 to 8.0 by adding ascorbic acid Na, the discoloration suppressing effect is still not achieved. It was insufficient.

特許文献2には、内側面に銅及び/又は亜鉛を含む合金地肌を露出した構造に形成してなる加熱容器中の温水または熱水中に溶出してくる銅イオンおよび亜鉛イオンの相互作用で植物由来緑色素を復元および/または定着するようにした湯煎による植物の緑色素復元・定着方法が記載されている。この方法では、クロロフィルの金属を銅イオンまたは亜鉛イオンに置換することでクロロフィルの色素をより鮮やかに保つことが可能である。しかしながら、このような方法では、溶出する金属イオン濃度の調整が困難であり、金属イオンが置換されるまで熱水に浸漬することで、他の栄養分の分解や溶出を招く等の問題があった。   Patent Document 2 describes the interaction between copper ions and zinc ions eluted in warm water or hot water in a heating vessel formed in a structure in which an alloy background containing copper and / or zinc is exposed on the inner surface. A method for restoring and fixing a green pigment of a plant by hot water bath in which the plant-derived green pigment is restored and / or fixed is described. In this method, the chlorophyll pigment can be kept more vivid by replacing the metal of chlorophyll with copper ions or zinc ions. However, with such a method, it is difficult to adjust the concentration of metal ions to be eluted, and soaking in hot water until the metal ions are replaced has caused problems such as decomposition and elution of other nutrients. .

特許文献3には、特定のミネラルを増強した酵母を利用した植物の緑色の保持あるいは復元する方法が提案されている。しかしながら、ミネラル含有酵母は、酵母壁が硬く所定のミネラルの効果的な遊離が難しいことや、酵母体内のミネラル含有量が比較的少ない(亜鉛酵母の場合は亜鉛を5重量%含有)ことから、酵母を過剰に加える必要があった。また、特有の酵母臭が食品に付着し、臭いや味に影響が出るため、食品には使用し難いものであった。   Patent Document 3 proposes a method for maintaining or restoring the green color of a plant using yeast enriched with a specific mineral. However, the mineral-containing yeast has a hard yeast wall and it is difficult to effectively release a predetermined mineral, and the mineral content in the yeast body is relatively small (in the case of zinc yeast, containing 5% by weight of zinc), It was necessary to add excess yeast. In addition, since a unique yeast odor adheres to food and affects the odor and taste, it is difficult to use for food.

また、クロロフィルの分解は、酸化も原因の一つと考えられており、様々な抗酸化物質の添加によってクロロフィルの変色を抑制する方法が提案されている。抗酸化物質としては、例えば、β−カロテン(特許文献4)、α−リポ酸及びアスコルビン酸(特許文献5、特許文献6)等が挙げられるが、クロロフィルの分解には複数の要因が考えられ、そのメカニズムが複雑であることから、これらの化合物のみではクロロフィルの分解、変色を十分に抑制することが困難であった。   The decomposition of chlorophyll is considered to be one of the causes of oxidation, and a method for suppressing the discoloration of chlorophyll by adding various antioxidants has been proposed. Examples of antioxidants include β-carotene (Patent Document 4), α-lipoic acid and ascorbic acid (Patent Documents 5 and 6), and a plurality of factors may be considered for the decomposition of chlorophyll. Since the mechanism is complicated, it is difficult to sufficiently suppress the decomposition and discoloration of chlorophyll only with these compounds.

そのため、食品の味質に対する影響が少なく、十分な変色抑制効果を有する品質保持剤が所望されていた。   Therefore, there has been a demand for a quality-preserving agent that has little influence on the taste quality of food and has a sufficient discoloration suppressing effect.

抹茶蒸しパンの色差測定
製造した抹茶蒸しパンをガスバリア性の高い包装袋(旭化成パックス株式会社製:KON15μm/60μm)に密閉した後、室温、蛍光灯による約1000ルクスの光照射下で1日間保管し、保管後の抹茶蒸しパンの色差を下記方法により測定した。結果を表1−1〜1−3に示す。
<色差の測定方法>
色差の測定には測色色差計(日本電色工業株式会社製:ZE‐2000)を用いて、明度L値、色相a値(赤色⇔緑色)、色相b値(黄色⇔青色)を測定した。
製造直後の値をp、所定時間経過後の値をqの添え字で示すとき、下式により総合的な色の差であるΔEを算出した。
(式)ΔE=[(Lq−Lp)+(aq−ap)+(bq−bp)1/2
尚、ΔEは製造直後と所定時間経過後のL、a、bの数値の差を表す。よって、ΔEの数値が小さい程、製造直後からの変化が少なく、変色抑制効果が高いことを示す。(ΔE/対照のΔE)×100の値が65未満であるのが好ましく、55未満であるのがより好ましく、45未満であるのがさらに好ましく、40未満であるのが特に好ましい。
Color difference measurement of Matcha steamed bread After sealing the manufactured Matcha steamed bread in a packaging bag with high gas barrier properties (Asahi Kasei Packs Co., Ltd .: KON 15 μm / 60 μm), it is stored for 1 day at room temperature under light irradiation of about 1000 lux with a fluorescent lamp. The color difference of the matcha steamed bread after storage was measured by the following method. The results are shown in Tables 1-1 to 1-3.
<Measurement method of color difference>
The color difference is measured using a colorimetric color difference meter (Nippon Denshoku Industries Co., Ltd .: ZE-2000), brightness L * value, hue a * value (red (green), hue b * value (yellow ⇔ blue) Was measured.
When the value immediately after the production is indicated by p and the value after the lapse of a predetermined time is indicated by the subscript q, ΔE * , which is an overall color difference, was calculated by the following equation.
(Formula) ΔE * = [(L * q−L * p) 2 + (a * q−a * p) 2 + (b * q−b * p) 2 ] 1/2
Note that ΔE * represents a difference in numerical values between L * , a * , and b * immediately after manufacture and after a lapse of a predetermined time. Therefore, the smaller the numerical value of ΔE *, the smaller the change from immediately after the production and the higher the discoloration suppressing effect. The value of (ΔE * / control ΔE * ) × 100 is preferably less than 65, more preferably less than 55, even more preferably less than 45, and particularly preferably less than 40.

本発明の製剤A〜Oのいずれかが配合された抹茶蒸しパン(実施例1〜15)は、光照射下での保管試験における色差((ΔE/対照のΔE)×100)の値が、対照より明確に小さく、十分に変色が抑制されていることが確認された。また味質に関しても対照と遜色なく同等であった。一方、本発明以外の製剤P〜Uのいずれかが配合された抹茶蒸しパン(比較例1〜6)は、いずれも実施例1〜15と比較して色差((ΔE/対照のΔE)×100)の値が大きく、変色抑制効果が十分ではなかった。 Matcha steamed bread (Examples 1 to 15) in which any one of the preparations A to O of the present invention is blended is a value of color difference ((ΔE * / control ΔE * ) × 100) in a storage test under light irradiation. However, it was confirmed that the discoloration was sufficiently smaller than the control and sufficiently discolored. The taste quality was comparable to the control. On the other hand, the matcha steamed bread (Comparative Examples 1 to 6) in which any of the preparations P to U other than the present invention was blended had a color difference ((ΔE * / control ΔE * ) as compared with Examples 1 to 15 . ) × 100) was large, and the discoloration suppressing effect was not sufficient.
