Description

本発明は、甘味素材である糖化物に機能性を付与した食品素材の提供、およびその製造法に関するものである。本発明の製造方法により得られる穀物糖化物は、機能性成分であるβ−グルカンを1〜15質量%含有し、かつヨード発色テストが(−)である糖化物であり、特に血清コレステロール低下作用や免疫調節作用を有する食品素材として、健康食品分野におけるサプリメント用、一般食品分野における飲料、パン、和洋菓子等に幅広く使用することができる。
The present invention relates to the provision of a food material in which functionality is imparted to a saccharified product, which is a sweet material, and a method for producing the same. The cereal saccharified product obtained by the production method of the present invention is a saccharified product containing 1 to 15% by mass of β-glucan, which is a functional component, and having an iodine color development test of (−). As a food material having an immunomodulatory action, it can be widely used for supplements in the health food field, beverages in the general food field, bread, Japanese and Western confectionery, and the like.

近年、β−グルカンの生理機能が見出されている。β−グルカンの構造は、グルコースを構成ユニットとし、これらがβ−1,3結合、β−1,4結合する直鎖上の高分子である。例えば、β−グルカン量が異なる大麦粉を原料とするケーキ、マフィン等を摂取することにより、摂取したβ−グルカン量に依存して総コレステロール値が減少する事例が報告されている(例えば、非特許文献1及び非特許文献2参照。)。また、米国FDAは、大麦β−グルカンに血清コレステロール値を低下させる効果があり、ヘルスクレームとして冠状心疾患の危険を減らす表示を認めている。   In recent years, physiological functions of β-glucan have been found. The structure of β-glucan is a straight-chain polymer in which glucose is a structural unit and these are β-1,3 bonds and β-1,4 bonds. For example, there have been reports of cases in which total cholesterol levels are reduced depending on the amount of β-glucan consumed by ingesting cakes, muffins and the like made from barley flour having different amounts of β-glucan (for example, non- (See Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 2.) In addition, the US FDA recognizes that barley β-glucan has an effect of lowering serum cholesterol level, and as a health claim, the indication for reducing the risk of coronary heart disease is accepted.

またマウスに大麦β−グルカンを腹腔内投与することにより、腹腔内細胞中の好中球集積が観察され、マクロファージ様細胞数の増加、活性化や細胞培養液中のIL−12、IFN−γの産生増強が観察された報告があり(例えば、非特許文献3参照。)、大麦β−グルカンによる免疫調節作用が謳われている。   Further, when barley β-glucan was intraperitoneally administered to mice, neutrophil accumulation in the intraperitoneal cells was observed, and the number of macrophage-like cells increased, activated, and IL-12, IFN-γ in the cell culture medium. (See, for example, Non-Patent Document 3), and the immunoregulatory action by barley β-glucan is expected.

穀物には、水溶性食物繊維であるβ−グルカンが含まれている。β−グルカンが比較的多く含まれる穀物としては、麦やオーツ麦が知られ、その含有量は6質量%とされる(例えば、非特許文献4参照。)。これら大麦やオーツ麦において、β−グルカンは、デンプン貯蔵細胞の細胞壁成分として存在する。こうした事実に鑑み、様々な大麦等穀物からのβ−グルカン製造法が考えられている。例えば、多ろう質大麦を原料とし、水抽出により製造する方法(例えば、特許文献1参照。)、あるいは、大麦、オーツ麦を原料として、アルカリ抽出、中和、アルコール沈殿により、重量平均分子量10万〜100万のβ−グルカンを得る方法(例えば、特許文献2参照。)、搗精歩留まり82質量%以下の大麦糠類を原料として、80〜90℃の熱水にてβ−グルカンを抽出する方法(例えば、特許文献3参照。)等がある。しかし、これらの方法は基本的に大麦等穀物からβ−グルカンを抽出する方法であり、抽出効率を上げるために様々な工夫はされているものの、いずれも抽出効率は不十分である。また、大麦等穀物中のβ−グルカン量は6〜10質量%程度と澱粉質やタンパク質等他の成分に比べると含有量が著しく低く、抽出後の残渣は製品であるβ−グルカンに比べ、著しく多い。これらは、飼料等付加価値の低い利用、または廃棄物にせざるを得ないため、製品単価が高くならざるを得ず、多くのサプリメント用、一般食品用に使用することが困難であった。   Cereals contain β-glucan, which is a water-soluble dietary fiber. As grains containing a relatively large amount of β-glucan, wheat and oats are known, and the content thereof is 6% by mass (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 4). In these barley and oats, β-glucan exists as a cell wall component of starch storage cells. In view of these facts, methods for producing β-glucan from various grains such as barley have been considered. For example, a method of producing by wax extraction using waxy barley as a raw material (see, for example, Patent Document 1), or using barley or oat as a raw material by alkali extraction, neutralization, alcohol precipitation, and a weight average molecular weight of 10 A method for obtaining 10,000 to 1,000,000 β-glucan (see, for example, Patent Document 2). Extracting β-glucan with hot water at 80 to 90 ° C. using barley koji with a fine yield of 82% by mass or less. There are methods (for example, see Patent Document 3). However, these methods are basically methods for extracting β-glucan from cereal grains such as barley, and although various efforts have been made to increase the extraction efficiency, all of them are insufficient in extraction efficiency. In addition, the amount of β-glucan in grains such as barley is about 6 to 10% by mass, which is significantly lower than other components such as starch and protein, and the residue after extraction is compared to β-glucan as a product, Remarkably many. These have to be used for low value-added feeds or waste, so that the unit price of the product has to be high, and it has been difficult to use for many supplements and general foods.

実際、β−グルカンの生理機能に基づいた食品素材が近年開発されている。例えば、キッコーマン社から「オーツ麦50EX」、「オーツ麦EX」、ADEKA社から「大麦β−グルカン」等が販売されている。これらは機能的には優れているものの、高価である(例えば、非特許文献5参照。)。   In fact, food materials based on the physiological function of β-glucan have been developed in recent years. For example, “Oat 50EX” and “Oat EX” are sold by Kikkoman, and “Barley β-glucan” is sold by ADEKA. Although these are functionally superior, they are expensive (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 5).

穀物を原料とする糖化物は古くから開発されている。原料としてモチゴメ、ウルチゴメ、砕米、モロコシ、トウモロコシ、アワ、サツマイモデンプン、ジャガイモデンプンが用いられ、これらを液化・糖化した後、金網等でアクを取り、自然濾過、加熱濃縮することにより麦芽飴や米飴が得られる。(例えば、非特許文献6参照。)これらの特徴は、米や麦芽に由来するビタミンやミネラル類等栄養素を含み、かつ香ばしい風味を持つ点であり、栄養強化、風味を増強する甘味料として活用されている。しかし、これらの糖化物は、微量成分としてミネラルや香気成分が含まれているものの、マルトースを主体とする糖類が主成分であり、各種菓子やつくだ煮等に利用されるが、β−グルカン等機能成分を含まず、サプリメントとして利用されることはなかった。   Saccharified products made from grains have been developed for a long time. Mochigome, uruchigome, crushed rice, sorghum, corn, millet, sweet potato starch, and potato starch are used as raw materials. After liquefying and saccharifying these, take acupuncture with a wire mesh, etc., naturally filter, heat concentrate, A cocoon is obtained. (For example, see Non-Patent Document 6.) These features include nutrients such as vitamins and minerals derived from rice and malt, and have a fragrant flavor, and are used as a sweetener to enhance nutrition and enhance flavor. Has been. However, although these saccharified products contain minerals and aroma components as trace components, they are mainly composed of saccharides mainly composed of maltose, and are used for various confectionery, tsukudani, etc. It contains no ingredients and was not used as a supplement.

また、穀物中のタンパク質やミネラルの栄養性に着眼したものが開発されている。米を液化・糖化した後、適当なpHに調整しタンパク質分解酵素処理することにより、アミノ酸がリッチな米飴が製造できる(例えば、特許文献4参照。)。また、小麦を原料としたシロップ(例えば、特許文献5参照。)、大麦を原料とした水飴(例えば、特許文献6及び特許文献7参照。)があるが、いずれもタンパク質を分解したアミノ酸やミネラルの一部である亜鉛含量を増やしたものであり、β−グルカン等機能成分を含有するものではなく、やはりサプリメントとして利用されることはなかった。   In addition, products that focus on the nutritional properties of proteins and minerals in grains have been developed. After liquefaction and saccharification of rice, a rice bran rich in amino acids can be produced by adjusting to an appropriate pH and treating with proteolytic enzyme (see, for example, Patent Document 4). In addition, there are syrups made from wheat as a raw material (for example, see Patent Document 5) and varicella made from barley as a raw material (see, for example, Patent Document 6 and Patent Document 7). The content of zinc, which is a part of the above, was increased and did not contain functional components such as β-glucan, and was never used as a supplement.

こうした事実に鑑み、大麦等β−グルカンを含有する穀物を液化反応、糖化反応を行う前にβ−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のタンパク質分解酵素によりタンパク質を分解し、次にβ−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%の液化酵素、およびβ−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%の糖化酵素により澱粉質を分解することにより、大麦等穀物のβ−グルカンを損傷、損失することなく糖化物中に混合させることができること、本発明は抽出法に比べ、低コストで製造できることを見出し、本発明に至った。

In view of these facts, grains containing β-glucan such as barley are liquefied and saccharified before the protein is degraded by a proteolytic enzyme having a β-glucanase activity of 0 to 10%, and then β-glucanase activity Degradation of starch with liquefaction enzymes having a degree of 0-10% and saccharification enzymes having a β-glucanase activity of 0-10% makes it possible to break down β-glucans in barley grains and the like without damaging or losing them. It was found that the present invention can be mixed at a low cost compared to the extraction method, and the present invention has been achieved.

本発明の目的は、大麦等穀物を原料とし、穀物が含むβ−グルカンを効率よく糖化物中に入れ込むことにより、β−グルカンの持つ機能性を活かした食品素材で、かつ低コストで製造可能な食品素材を開発することである。   The object of the present invention is to produce a food material utilizing the functionality of β-glucan at low cost by efficiently incorporating β-glucan contained in the grain into saccharified products using grains such as barley as a raw material. The development of possible food ingredients.

本発明は、β−グルカンを含む穀物を原料とし、液化反応、糖化反応を行う前に、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のプロテアーゼタンパク質分解酵素を用いてタンパク質分解反応を行い、次にβ−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%の液化酵素、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%の糖化酵素により澱粉質分解を行い、固液分離、スプレードライ、凍結乾燥法等を行うことにより得られた素材が1〜15質量%のβ−グルカンを含有し、ヨード発色テストが(−)である穀物糖化物であり、本糖化物が上記目標を達成することを見出し、本発明を完成させたものである。   The present invention uses cereals containing β-glucan as a raw material, and performs a proteolytic reaction using a protease proteolytic enzyme having a β-glucanase activity of 0 to 10% before performing a liquefaction reaction or a saccharification reaction. It is obtained by degrading starch with a liquefying enzyme with a β-glucanase activity of 0-10% and a saccharifying enzyme with a β-glucanase activity of 0-10%, followed by solid-liquid separation, spray drying, freeze drying, etc. The obtained material is a cereal saccharified product containing 1 to 15% by mass of β-glucan and having an iodine color development test of (−), and the saccharified product achieves the above-mentioned target, thereby completing the present invention. It is a thing.

本発明により、β−グルカンが1〜15質量%を含有し、ヨード発色テストが(−)であることを特徴とする穀物糖化物を得ることができる。本発明品は、β−グルカンの持つ機能性を活かした糖化物であり、健康食品分野におけるサプリメント用、一般食品分野における飲料、パン、和洋菓子等に幅広く使用することができる。   According to the present invention, a saccharified grain product containing 1 to 15% by mass of β-glucan and having an iodine color development test of (−) can be obtained. The product of the present invention is a saccharified product utilizing the functionality of β-glucan, and can be widely used for supplements in the health food field, beverages, breads, Japanese and Western confectionery in the general food field.

以下に本発明を詳細に説明する。原料は、β−グルカンを含む穀物を用いる。澱粉質とβ−グルカンを含む穀物であれば本発明に使用することができるが、β−グルカン含量が高いものほど得られる糖化物中のβ−グルカン含量が高く、商品価値が高い。β−グルカンを含む穀物としては、大麦やオーツ麦があり、本発明に使用することができるが、これ以外の穀物でもβ−グルカンを含めば本発明に使用することができ、特にこれにこだわらない。なお、β−グルカンは低分子化されたものよりも分子量が10以上の高分子β−グルカンのほうが商品価値が高い。その理由は、大麦やオーツ麦由来の分子量が10以上のβ−グルカンに関しては古くから幅広くその生理機能が調べられ、多くの知見が得られているのに対し、低分子化されたものは新規に上市されたものであり、その生理機能の確認はまだまだ十分でないためである。 The present invention is described in detail below. The raw material is a grain containing β-glucan. Grains containing starch and β-glucan can be used in the present invention, but the higher the β-glucan content, the higher the β-glucan content in the saccharified product, and the higher the commercial value. Cereals containing β-glucan include barley and oats and can be used in the present invention. However, other grains can be used in the present invention if β-glucan is included, and this is particularly particular. Absent. It should be noted that β-glucan has a higher commercial value for high-molecular β-glucan having a molecular weight of 10 5 or more than that obtained by reducing the molecular weight. The reason is that the molecular weight derived from barley and oats are examined extensively its physiology from ancient times with respect to 10 5 or more β- glucans, whereas many findings have been obtained, those low molecular weight is This is because it has been newly launched and its physiological function has not been confirmed.

まず始めに、本糖化物を製造するにあたり、上記穀物を水に分散させる。この際、穀物の濃度として、1〜20質量%であることが重要である。穀物の仕込み濃度が20質量%より高い場合、十分な液化反応を行うことができず、糖化物に未分解の澱粉が残ってしまう。未分解の澱粉が残った糖化物は、老化しやすい等の理由により商品価値が著しく低い。未分解の澱粉の有無はヨード発色テストにより確認できる。また、未分解の澱粉が残った糖化液は粘度が高く、固液分離が困難である。   First, in producing the saccharified product, the cereal is dispersed in water. At this time, it is important that the concentration of the grain is 1 to 20% by mass. When the charged concentration of cereal is higher than 20% by mass, sufficient liquefaction reaction cannot be performed, and undegraded starch remains in the saccharified product. A saccharified product in which undegraded starch remains has a remarkably low commercial value for reasons such as easy aging. The presence or absence of undegraded starch can be confirmed by an iodine color development test. Moreover, the saccharified solution in which undegraded starch remains has a high viscosity and is difficult to separate into solid and liquid.

次にタンパク質分解反応を行う。市販の酵素は、主活性のみならず、他の反応を触媒する活性を持つことが多く、これを副活性という。副活性作用であるβ−グルカナーゼ活性のレベルをβ−グルカナーゼ活性度と定義する。なお、β−グルカナーゼ活性とは、β−グルカンのβ−1,3結合、β−1,4結合を切断する酵素活性である。タンパク質分解酵素は、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のものを使用することが重要である。β−グルカナーゼ活性度が10%以上のものを使用するとβ−グルカンが分解してしまい、分子量が10以上のβ−グルカンが1質量%以下になる。 Next, a proteolytic reaction is performed. Commercially available enzymes often have not only a main activity but also an activity that catalyzes other reactions, which is called a secondary activity. The level of β-glucanase activity, which is a side activity, is defined as β-glucanase activity. The β-glucanase activity is an enzyme activity that cleaves β-1,3 bond and β-1,4 bond of β-glucan. It is important to use a protease having a β-glucanase activity of 0 to 10%. When beta-glucanase activity is to use a more than 10% beta-glucan would decompose a molecular weight of 10 5 or more beta-glucan is less than 1 wt%.

タンパク質分解反応は、液化反応の前に行うことが重要である。β−グルカンはタンパク質と相互作用しているため、タンパク質分解反応を行わなければ、β−グルカンが液部に十分に遊離しない。このため、この順序で反応を行わなければ、固液分離の際に、残渣側にβ−グルカンが残ったままとなり、最終的にβ−グルカンが十分含まれない糖化物しか得られない。   It is important to carry out the proteolytic reaction before the liquefaction reaction. Since β-glucan interacts with protein, β-glucan is not sufficiently released into the liquid part unless a proteolytic reaction is performed. For this reason, if the reaction is not performed in this order, β-glucan remains on the residue side during solid-liquid separation, and finally only a saccharified product that does not sufficiently contain β-glucan is obtained.

実際には上記穀物含有の水溶液の温度をタンパク質分解酵素の反応温度まで上げて、タンパク質分解酵素を添加し、タンパク質を分解する。この際、水の温度を反応温度まで上げた後に、穀物、タンパク質分解酵素を添加してもよい。この際の反応温度とは、穀物の糊化温度よりも低く、かつタンパク質分解酵素が活性をもつ温度のことである。前処理の際の反応温度は穀物の糊化温度以上まで上げてはならない。粘度が上がりすぎ、液化反応が不十分と成るためである。また、タンパク質分解酵素はその温度に応じて活性が異なり、温度が低すぎても反応が進まない。反応温度範囲は、穀物の種類やタンパク質分解酵素の種類により異なるが、通常20℃から60℃で行うのが好ましい。タンパク質分解酵素の添加量は特に限定するものではないが、固形分1gに対して、50〜1000U添加する。反応pHは、タンパク質分解酵素が活性をもつ範囲ならよく、特に限定する必要はない。また、反応時間も特に限定するものではないが、生産性を考慮すると通常1〜24時間で行う。例えば、大麦5部に対し水を95部添加し、固形分1g当たりタンパク質分解酵素を300U添加し、55℃まで温度を上げ、3時間反応させることにより、反応を行うことができる。   In practice, the temperature of the aqueous solution containing grains is raised to the reaction temperature of the proteolytic enzyme, and the proteolytic enzyme is added to decompose the protein. At this time, the cereal and the proteolytic enzyme may be added after raising the temperature of the water to the reaction temperature. The reaction temperature at this time is a temperature that is lower than the gelatinization temperature of the grain and at which the proteolytic enzyme is active. The reaction temperature during pretreatment should not be raised above the gelatinization temperature of the grain. This is because the viscosity increases too much and the liquefaction reaction becomes insufficient. Proteolytic enzymes have different activities depending on the temperature, and the reaction does not proceed even if the temperature is too low. The reaction temperature range varies depending on the type of grain and the type of proteolytic enzyme, but it is usually preferable to carry out the reaction at 20 ° C to 60 ° C. The addition amount of the proteolytic enzyme is not particularly limited, but 50 to 1000 U is added to 1 g of the solid content. The reaction pH is not particularly limited as long as the proteolytic enzyme is active. Moreover, although reaction time is not specifically limited, When productivity is considered, it is normally performed in 1 to 24 hours. For example, the reaction can be carried out by adding 95 parts of water to 5 parts of barley, adding 300 U of proteolytic enzyme per gram of solid content, raising the temperature to 55 ° C., and reacting for 3 hours.

その後、上記反応液に、液化酵素を添加して液化反応を行う。ここで言う液化とは、澱粉質をランダムに切断し、水に可溶化させることである。液化酵素は、α−アミラーゼを用いればよく、植物由来、微生物由来のものがあるが、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のものであればいずれを用いても良い。β−グルカナーゼ活性度が10%以上のものを使用すると前処理反応でβ−グルカンが分解してしまい、分子量が10以上のβ−グルカンが1質量%以下になる。また、液化酵素添加量は特に限定するものではないが、通常1gあたり10〜1000U添加する。液化酵素は、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%であれば特に由来に限定されるものではない。液化酵素添加後、穀物の糊化温度以上まで昇温して、液化する。液化温度は穀物の糊化温度よりも高ければよく、特に限定するものではない。例えば、上記前処理液に、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%の液化酵素を固形分1g当たり50U添加し、30分かけて80℃まで昇温し、80℃の状態を30分保持することにより液化することができる。 Thereafter, a liquefaction enzyme is added to the reaction solution to perform a liquefaction reaction. Liquefaction as used herein refers to randomly cutting starch solubilized in water. As the liquefaction enzyme, α-amylase may be used, and there are those derived from plants and microorganisms, but any may be used as long as β-glucanase activity is 0 to 10%. β- glucanase activity ends up decomposition β- glucan treatment reaction before With more than 10%, a molecular weight of 10 5 or more β- glucan is below 1 wt%. The amount of liquefied enzyme added is not particularly limited, but is usually 10 to 1000 U added per 1 g. The liquefying enzyme is not particularly limited to its origin as long as the β-glucanase activity is 0 to 10%. After the liquefaction enzyme is added, the temperature is raised to a temperature equal to or higher than the gelatinization temperature of the grain and liquefies. The liquefaction temperature is not particularly limited as long as it is higher than the grain gelatinization temperature. For example, 50 U of liquefied enzyme having a β-glucanase activity of 0 to 10% per 1 g of solid content is added to the pretreatment liquid, the temperature is raised to 80 ° C. over 30 minutes, and the state at 80 ° C. is maintained for 30 minutes. Can be liquefied.

さらに、上記液化液に糖化酵素を添加し、糖化反応を行う。ここで言う糖化とは、液化により生じるデキストリン類をさらに分解し、少糖類とすることである。β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のものであることが重要であり、この条件さえ満たせば、糖化酵素は液化液により可溶化されたデキストリンを分解するものであれば、特に限定されるものではない。また、酵素の種類をかえることにより、目的に応じた糖組成とすることができる。なお、糖化反応の際の反応温度は、短時間で失活しない程度に低く、雑菌汚染の恐れがない程度に高い温度であれば特に問題はなく、通常は50〜70℃にするが、酵素の至適温度にするのがより好ましい。また、pHは短時間で失活しない程度であれば特に問題はないが、酵素の至適pHにするのがより好ましい。なお、ここで言う至適pHとは酵素活性が最も高くなるpHのことであり、至適温度とは酵素活性が最も高くなる温度のことである。   Further, a saccharification enzyme is added to the liquefied liquid to perform a saccharification reaction. The saccharification here means to further decompose dextrins generated by liquefaction into oligosaccharides. It is important that the activity of β-glucanase is 0 to 10%, and as long as this condition is satisfied, the saccharifying enzyme is particularly limited as long as it decomposes dextrin solubilized by the liquefied liquid. is not. Moreover, it can be set as the saccharide | sugar composition according to the objective by changing the kind of enzyme. The reaction temperature during the saccharification reaction is low enough not to be deactivated in a short time and is not particularly problematic as long as it is high enough not to cause contamination with bacteria, and is usually 50 to 70 ° C. It is more preferable to set it to the optimum temperature. Further, there is no particular problem as long as the pH is such that it does not deactivate in a short time, but it is more preferable to adjust the pH to the optimum value for the enzyme. The optimum pH referred to here is the pH at which the enzyme activity is highest, and the optimum temperature is the temperature at which the enzyme activity is highest.

糖化酵素としてβ−アミラーゼを用いれば、マルトースが多く含まれる糖化物を得ることができる。この際、β−アミラーゼとしては、大豆や大麦麦芽など植物由来のものやBacillus属、Pseudomonas属など微生物由来のものがあるが、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のものであればいずれを用いてもよい。マルトースの量は、β−アミラーゼの添加量と反応時間により調整することができるが、更に、枝切酵素を使用することにより増やすことができる。枝切酵素とは、澱粉やデキストリンのα−1,6結合を切断する酵素で、種類としてプルラナーゼやイソアミラーゼがある。β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のものであれば特に由来を限定するものではなく、プルラナーゼ「アマノ」(天野エンザイム、Klebsiella pneumoniae由来)やプロモザイム(ノボザイムズ、Bacillus acidopullulyticus由来)等が使用できる。最終的に、糖組成としてマルトース量は、液化の際の分解度にもよるが、30〜75質量%まで調整することができる。 If β-amylase is used as a saccharifying enzyme, a saccharified product containing a large amount of maltose can be obtained. In this case, β-amylase includes those derived from plants such as soybeans and barley malt, and those derived from microorganisms such as Bacillus genus and Pseudomonas genus, and any of those having β-glucanase activity of 0 to 10%. It may be used. The amount of maltose can be adjusted by the amount of β-amylase added and the reaction time, but can be further increased by using a debranching enzyme. The debranching enzyme is an enzyme that cleaves α-1,6 bonds of starch and dextrin, and includes pullulanase and isoamylase as types. The origin is not particularly limited as long as the β-glucanase activity is 0 to 10%, and pullulanase “Amano” (derived from Amano Enzyme, Klebsiella pneumoniae), promozyme (derived from Novozymes, Bacillus acidopullulyticus) and the like can be used. Finally, the amount of maltose as the sugar composition can be adjusted to 30 to 75% by mass, depending on the degree of decomposition during liquefaction.

また、糖化酵素としてグルコアミラーゼを用いれば、グルコースが多く含まれる糖化液を得ることができる。この際、グルコアミラーゼとしては、β−グルカナーゼ活性度が0〜10%のものであれば特に由来にはこだわらない。グルコースの量は、グルコアミラーゼの量と反応時間により調整することができるが、更に、枝切酵素の使用することにより増やすことができる。市販の酵素では、プルラナーゼが配合されたグルコアミラーゼがあり、これらを用いることにより作業性を上げることができる。最終的に、糖組成としてグルコース量は、液化の際の分解度にもよるが、50質量%以上まで調整することができる。   If glucoamylase is used as the saccharifying enzyme, a saccharified solution containing a large amount of glucose can be obtained. In this case, the origin of glucoamylase is not particularly limited as long as the β-glucanase activity is 0 to 10%. The amount of glucose can be adjusted by the amount of glucoamylase and the reaction time, but can be further increased by using a debranching enzyme. Among commercially available enzymes, there are glucoamylases in which pullulanase is blended. By using these enzymes, workability can be improved. Finally, the amount of glucose as a sugar composition can be adjusted to 50% by mass or more, depending on the degree of decomposition during liquefaction.

この様にして製造した糖化液から遠心分離やフィルタープレスにより固液分離をして不溶部を除くことにより、液部を得る。このまま、本液部を後工程に使用しても良いが、ケイソウ土や活性炭などを助材とするろ過を行うことにより、清澄な液を得ることができる。また、濾過は遠心分離やフィルタープレスを行わない液を直接行うこともできる。固液分離した液や濾過液でも食品素材として利用することができるが、栄養豊富なため、わずかな微生物の混入でも微生物が増殖してしまい、運送するのが困難である。   A liquid part is obtained by carrying out solid-liquid separation from the saccharified liquid manufactured in this way by centrifugation or a filter press and removing an insoluble part. The liquid part may be used in the subsequent step as it is, but a clear liquid can be obtained by performing filtration using diatomaceous earth or activated carbon as an auxiliary material. Filtration can also be performed directly with a liquid that is not subjected to centrifugation or filter press. Although liquids and filtrates that have been separated into solid and liquid can be used as food materials, they are abundant in nutrients, so that even if a slight amount of microorganisms are mixed, microorganisms grow and are difficult to transport.

通常の穀物糖化物は、得られた清澄な濾過液を濃縮することにより、微生物に汚染されにくい糖化物とすることができるが、本発明品は濃縮中固形分濃度を上げるとゲル化してしまうため、微生物が増殖しないレベルまで濃縮することができない。   Ordinary cereal saccharified products can be made into saccharified products that are not easily contaminated by microorganisms by concentrating the clear filtrate obtained, but the product of the present invention gelates when the solid content concentration is increased during concentration. Therefore, it cannot be concentrated to a level at which microorganisms do not grow.

得られた清澄な濾過液を粉体とすることにより、微生物に汚染されにくい運送に適した糖化物に仕上ることができる。粉体化する方法は、特にこだわらないが、例えばスプレードライ法、凍結乾燥法がある。   By making the obtained clear filtrate into powder, it can be finished into a saccharified product suitable for transportation that is not easily contaminated by microorganisms. The method for powdering is not particularly limited, but there are, for example, a spray drying method and a freeze drying method.

以下、実施例により本発明を更に説明するが、本発明はこれら実施例によって限定されるものではない。   EXAMPLES Hereinafter, although an Example demonstrates this invention further, this invention is not limited by these Examples.

表2から、穀物の仕込み濃度が20重量%より高い場合、もしくは液化反応・糖化反応を行う前にタンパク質分解酵素を用いたタンパク質分解反応を行わない場合は、ヨード発色テストが(−)にならず未分解の澱粉が残ることがわかる。また、製造に使用する液化酵素、糖化酵素、タンパク質分解酵素として10%以上のβ−グルカナーゼ活性度をもつ酵素を用いた場合、β−グルカンが分解して十分なβ−グルカンが得られないことがわかる。   From Table 2, if the feed concentration of cereal is higher than 20% by weight, or if the proteolytic reaction using a proteolytic enzyme is not performed before the liquefaction reaction or saccharification reaction, the iodine color development test should be (-). It can be seen that undegraded starch remains. In addition, when an enzyme having a β-glucanase activity of 10% or more is used as a liquefying enzyme, saccharifying enzyme, or proteolytic enzyme used for production, β-glucan is degraded and sufficient β-glucan cannot be obtained. I understand.
