Description

本発明は、耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制剤、これを用いた耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制方法、耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖が抑制された酸性飲料の製造方法及び該方法により得られた酸性飲料に関する。   The present invention provides a growth inhibitor of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria, a method for suppressing the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria using the same, a method for producing an acidic beverage in which the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria is suppressed, and the method. Related to acid beverages.

酸性飲料の開発において、外観や風味を損ねないまま、長期保存することが望まれている。酸性飲料において、外観や風味を損なう一つの要因としては、微生物の増殖による影響が挙げられる。特に耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖による影響が問題となる。耐熱性好酸性菌は、アリシクロバチルス(Alicyclobacillus)属に属し、1984年にリンゴ果汁から単離された土壌菌であって、これまでに果汁中での増殖が確認されている。耐熱性好酸性菌は、好気性又は通性嫌気性の細菌で、グラム陽性あるいは不定形を示す芽胞形成桿菌であり、発育温度域が40〜70℃及び発育pH域が2〜6であるという特徴を有する。また、耐熱性好酸性菌は、耐熱性芽胞を形成するため、清涼飲料水の一般的な殺菌条件では殺菌できず、更に酸性の飲料中で増殖する。耐熱性好酸性菌自体やその代謝物には毒性は無いが、酸性飲料の外観や風味を損なう要因となる。また一部の菌で、グアイヤコールや、2,6-ジブロモフェノールといった異臭成分を生成することも報告されており、商品価値が大きく損なわれる。   In the development of acidic beverages, it is desired to preserve for a long time without impairing the appearance and flavor. One factor that impairs the appearance and flavor of acidic beverages is the effect of microbial growth. In particular, the effect of growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria becomes a problem. The heat-resistant acidophilic bacterium belongs to the genus Alicyclobacillus and is a soil bacterium isolated from apple juice in 1984, and has been confirmed to grow in the juice so far. A thermostable acidophilic bacterium is an aerobic or facultative anaerobic bacterium that is a spore-forming gonococcus showing a gram-positive or indefinite form, with a growth temperature range of 40-70 ° C and a growth pH range of 2-6 Has characteristics. In addition, since heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria form heat-resistant spores, they cannot be sterilized under general sterilization conditions for soft drinks, and further grow in acidic beverages. Although the heat-resistant acidophilic bacterium itself and its metabolites are not toxic, they cause damage to the appearance and flavor of acidic beverages. In addition, some bacteria have been reported to produce off-flavor components such as guaiacol and 2,6-dibromophenol, which greatly impairs the commercial value.

上記問題を防止するために、製品中での耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖を抑制することが必要となる。耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制には、UHT殺菌の実施、静菌剤の使用等が挙げられる。しかし、UHT殺菌は、通常の殺菌条件よりも過酷な条件であるため飲料の風味や外観が損なわれる。また静菌剤の使用は、その有効量添加により飲料の風味を損なう恐れがある。従って、酸性飲料の風味を損なわない方法での耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制方法及び耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制剤の開発が望まれている。   In order to prevent the above problems, it is necessary to suppress the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria in the product. Examples of the suppression of the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria include UHT sterilization and the use of bacteriostatic agents. However, since UHT sterilization is a severer condition than normal sterilization conditions, the flavor and appearance of the beverage are impaired. Further, the use of bacteriostatic agents may impair the flavor of the beverage by adding an effective amount thereof. Therefore, development of a method for inhibiting the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria and a method for inhibiting the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria by a method that does not impair the flavor of acidic beverages is desired.

特許文献1には、飲料の風味を損なわずに、耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖を抑える静菌効果を有する物質として、酢酸ナトリウムが報告されている。また、特許文献2には、ジグリセリンミリスチン酸エステル及び/又はその塩を有効成分として含む耐熱性好酸性菌抑制剤、並びに該耐熱性好酸性菌抑制剤を含む酸性飲料が報告されている。更に、非特許文献1には、リゾチーム、ポリリジン、プロタミン、酢酸、脂肪酸エステル及びナイシンに耐熱性好酸性菌増殖抑制効果があることが記載されている。
しかし、乳酸が、耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制作用を示すことについては従来提案が無い。尚、特許文献1及び2には、乳酸に、耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制効果がないことを示す比較例が記載されている。

Patent Document 1 reports sodium acetate as a substance having a bacteriostatic effect that suppresses the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria without impairing the flavor of the beverage. Patent Document 2 reports a heat-resistant acidophilic bacterium inhibitor containing diglycerin myristic acid ester and / or a salt thereof as an active ingredient, and an acidic beverage containing the heat-resistant acidophilic bacterium inhibitor. Furthermore, Non-Patent Document 1 describes that lysozyme, polylysine, protamine, acetic acid, fatty acid ester and nisin have a heat-resistant acidophilic bacterial growth inhibitory effect.
However, there is no conventional proposal that lactic acid exhibits the growth-inhibiting action of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria. Patent Documents 1 and 2 describe comparative examples showing that lactic acid has no effect of inhibiting the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria.

The growth inhibitor of the present invention is added to the target according to the type of the target, the growth inhibitor of the present invention containing an effective amount of lactic acid that suppresses the growth of the above-mentioned heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria. It can be performed by the method of doing.

本発明の酸性飲料の製造方法は、酸性飲料の製造工程のいずれかの時点で、本発明の増殖抑制剤を添加することを特徴とする。
前記酸性飲料は、通常、pH4.6未満の清涼飲料水であって、通常、果実飲料、野菜飲料、スポーツ飲料、乳酸菌飲料、乳酸飲料、炭酸飲料が挙げられる。スポーツ飲料、乳酸菌飲料、乳酸飲料、炭酸飲料は、果汁及び/又は野菜汁を含有してもしなくても良い。
The method for producing an acidic beverage of the present invention is characterized in that the growth inhibitor of the present invention is added at any point in the production process of the acidic beverage.
The acidic drink is usually a soft drink having a pH of less than 4.6, and usually includes a fruit drink, a vegetable drink, a sports drink, a lactic acid bacteria drink, a lactic acid drink, and a carbonated drink. Sports drinks, lactic acid bacteria drinks, lactic acid drinks, and carbonated drinks may or may not contain fruit juice and / or vegetable juice.

本発明の酸性飲料の製造方法において、本発明の増殖抑制剤を添加する、酸性飲料の製造工程のいずれかの時点とは、上記各種酸性飲料の製造工程のいずれの時点でも良く、通常、最終の殺菌工程の以前に添加することができる。添加時期は、1回でも複数回に分けても良い。   In the method for producing an acidic beverage of the present invention, any point in the production process of the acidic beverage to which the growth inhibitor of the present invention is added may be any point in the production process of the above various acidic beverages. Can be added prior to the sterilization step. The addition time may be divided into one time or a plurality of times.

本発明の酸性飲料の製造方法において、本発明の増殖抑制剤の添加量は、得られる酸性飲料の全量に対する全乳酸量が0.075重量%以上となる量、好ましくは0.075〜3.0重量%となる量とすることができる。また、酸性飲料が、果実飲料の場合には、耐熱性好酸性菌が増殖し易いため、得られる酸性飲料の全量に対する全乳酸量が0.15重量%以上となる量が好ましい。少ない含有量では、十分な耐熱性好酸性菌の静菌作用は期待できず、0.3重量%より多い含有量では乳酸由来の酸味のために、酸性飲料本来の風味を損なう恐れがある。但し、果汁の割合が低い、例えば、果汁率が3重量%以下の酸性飲料の場合には、酸性飲料の全量に対する全乳酸量が0.075〜0.3重量%で十分な抑制効果が得られる。
従って、得られる酸性飲料は、0.075〜0.3重量%の乳酸、更には0.15〜0.3重量%の乳酸を含み、有効に耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖を抑制でき、更に風味及び外観を損なわない酸性飲料である。
In the method for producing an acidic beverage of the present invention, the amount of the growth inhibitor of the present invention is such that the total amount of lactic acid with respect to the total amount of the obtained acidic beverage is 0.075% by weight or more, preferably 0.075 to 3.0% by weight. It can be. Further, when the acidic beverage is a fruit beverage, heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria are likely to proliferate, so that the total amount of lactic acid with respect to the total amount of the obtained acidic beverage is preferably 0.15% by weight or more. If the content is small, the bacteriostatic action of sufficient heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria cannot be expected. If the content is more than 0.3% by weight, the original flavor of the acidic beverage may be impaired due to the acidity derived from lactic acid. However, in the case of an acidic beverage having a low fruit juice ratio, for example, a fruit juice ratio of 3% by weight or less, a sufficient inhibitory effect is obtained when the total amount of lactic acid relative to the total amount of the acidic beverage is 0.075 to 0.3% by weight.
Therefore, the obtained acidic beverage contains 0.075 to 0.3% by weight of lactic acid, and further 0.15 to 0.3% by weight of lactic acid, can effectively suppress the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria, and further does not impair the flavor and appearance. It is.
