Description
本発明は、乳性食品の50%粒子径の簡易測定方法に関する。具体的には、特定の波長の光照射による吸光度の測定値を利用する、乳性食品の50%粒子径の簡易測定方法に関する。
The present invention relates to a simple method for measuring the 50% particle size of dairy foods. Specifically, the present invention relates to a simple method for measuring the 50% particle size of dairy foods, which uses a measured value of absorbance by light irradiation at a specific wavelength.
乳性食品の粒子は、脂肪球やタンパク質粒子(カゼインミセルなど)で構成されており、均質化処理や乳化処理などにより、その寸法が制御される。例えば乳性食品の代表的なものとして、牛乳では搾乳時に、脂肪球の寸法が大きいため、そのままでは、脂肪球が浮上しやすく、いわゆるクリーミング(脂肪浮上)の現象が見られる。そのため、均質機(ホモゲナイザー)を用いて均質化処理し、脂肪球の寸法を小さくして、脂肪球の浮上速度を遅らせることで、クリーミングを抑制している(非特許文献1)。
The stalactic food particles are composed of fat globules and protein particles (such as casein micelles), and their dimensions are controlled by homogenization treatment or emulsification treatment. For example, as a typical dairy food, since milk has a large fat globule size during milking, the fat globule tends to float as it is, and so-called creaming (fat flotation) phenomenon is observed. For this reason, creaming is suppressed by homogenizing using a homogenizer (homogenizer), reducing the size of fat globules, and delaying the rising speed of fat globules (Non-patent Document 1).
また、乳性食品では、脂肪球の寸法、いわゆる脂肪球径が風味や食感に影響することが知られている。すなわち、乳性食品では、栄養組成(脂質、タンパク質、糖質、灰分など)が同じでも、脂肪球径が異なると、風味や食感などが変わることは既知の事実であり、例えば脂肪球径を大きくすることで、濃厚感を高められることになる。
In addition, in milky foods, it is known that the size of fat globules, the so-called fat globules diameter, affects the flavor and texture. That is, it is a known fact that in milk foods, even if the nutritional composition (lipid, protein, sugar, ash, etc.) is the same, if the fat globule diameter is different, the flavor and texture change. By increasing the value, the richness can be enhanced.
上記の通り、乳性食品の粒子は、風味や食感に影響するが、このとき、乳性食品を分散体とすると、体積基準の粒度分布の測定結果の平均値を「50%粒子径」として代用することが多い。そして、この乳性食品の「50%粒子径」を測定する代表的な機器には、レーザー回折式の粒度分布測定装置(島津製作所製)などがある(特許文献1~4)。そこで、このような粒度分布測定装置を導入できれば、乳性食品の50%粒子径を確実に測定できることとなるが、実際の購入費や維持費・修繕費などを勘案すると、必ずしも手軽に導入できるとは言い難い。
As described above, dairy food particles affect the flavor and texture. At this time, when the dairy food is used as a dispersion, the average value of the volume-based particle size distribution measurement results is “50% particle size”. Often used as a substitute. A typical apparatus for measuring the “50% particle size” of this milky food is a laser diffraction type particle size distribution measuring apparatus (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) (Patent Documents 1 to 4). Therefore, if such a particle size distribution measuring device can be introduced, the 50% particle size of dairy foods can be reliably measured, but it can always be easily introduced in consideration of actual purchase costs, maintenance costs, repair costs, etc. It's hard to say.
従って、粒度分布測定装置を導入していない場合、乳性食品の均質化処理における剪断効果を考慮した上で、過去の経験から、乳性食品の50%粒子径を推測する方法などを採用してきた。例えば牛乳のクリーミングを抑制するためには、所定値以上の高圧で均質化処理し、脂肪球の寸法を小さくしてきたが、このとき、その都度では、実際の牛乳の50%粒子径を測定することはなかった。
Therefore, when a particle size distribution measuring device is not introduced, a method of estimating the 50% particle size of dairy foods has been adopted from past experience after considering the shearing effect in homogenization processing of dairy foods. It was. For example, in order to suppress the creaming of milk, homogenization was performed at a high pressure of a predetermined value or more to reduce the size of fat globules. At this time, the 50% particle size of actual milk is measured each time. It never happened.
このような状況に鑑み、本発明では、粒度分布測定装置のような大掛かりで特殊な設備を使用せずに、乳性食品(液状乳性食品の脂肪球径やタンパク質粒子径など)の50%粒子径を簡便で安価に測定する方法を提供することを課題とする。
In view of such circumstances, in the present invention, 50% of dairy foods (such as fat sphere diameter and protein particle diameter of liquid dairy foods) are used without using large and special equipment such as a particle size distribution measuring device. It is an object of the present invention to provide a simple and inexpensive method for measuring the particle size.
本発明者らは、上記の課題に鑑み、鋭意研究を進めたところ、以下の知見を得た。すなわち、特定の波長の光照射による吸光度の測定値と粒度分布測定装置による乳性食品の50%粒子径の測定値とに相関関係があることを見出し、これを利用することで、粒度分布測定装置のような大掛かりで高価な設備を導入しなくとも、乳性食品の50%粒子径を簡便で安価に測定できることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。
In light of the above problems, the present inventors have conducted extensive research and have obtained the following knowledge. That is, it is found that there is a correlation between the measured value of absorbance by light irradiation of a specific wavelength and the measured value of 50% particle size of dairy food by a particle size distribution measuring device, and by using this, particle size distribution measurement is performed. It has been found that the 50% particle size of dairy food can be measured easily and inexpensively without introducing a large and expensive equipment such as an apparatus, and the present invention has been completed.
具体的には、500nm~1100nmの波長の光照射による吸光度の測定値と粒度分布測定装置による乳性食品の50%粒子径の測定値とに一次関数的な相関関係(比例関係)があることを見出し、この相関関係の指標となる検量線を予め作成などすることで、粒度分布測定装置よりも簡易的に設置できる分光光度計を使用して、乳性食品の50%粒子径を簡便で安価に測定できることを見出した。
Specifically, there is a linear function correlation (proportional relationship) between the measured value of absorbance by light irradiation with a wavelength of 500 nm to 1100 nm and the measured value of 50% particle size of milk food by a particle size distribution measuring device. By using a spectrophotometer that can be installed more simply than a particle size distribution measuring device by preparing a calibration curve that is an index of this correlation in advance, the 50% particle size of dairy foods can be simplified. We found that it can be measured at low cost.

Accordingly, there is a proportional relationship between the 50% particle size of the dairy food and the measured absorbance value by light irradiation (linear function: absorbance = a × particle size + b (see Table 2 and the like described later)). Holds. Also, with the same reason, other correlations such as quadratic functions can be derived.
本発明において、乳性食品の50%粒子径は、例えば、光照射による吸光度の測定値と粒度分布測定装置による50%粒子径の測定値との相関関係に対して、非線形最小自乗法や線形最小自乗法などの公知の近似方法を適用する。そして、その相関関係を数式などで予め算出しておき、実際に測定試料や対照試料の吸光度を測定し、その相関関係の数式などに当てはめて算出できる。ただし、乳性食品の50%粒子径は、光照射による吸光度の測定値と粒度分布測定装置による50%粒子径の測定値との相関関係を利用して算出すれば、特に限定されない。具体的には、光照射が500nm~1100nmの波長である吸光度の測定値と粒度分布測定装置による50%粒子径の測定値との相関関係を検量線や関数電卓などで算出してから、線形最小自乗法を適用し、予め数式と換算係数を算出する。
そして、実際に測定試料や対照試料の吸光度を測定し、予め算出した数式と換算係数を適用して、乳性食品の50%粒子径を算出する。なお、これら検量線などの線形最小自乗法の相関係数(R2)では、0.90以上が好ましく、0.93以上がより好ましく、0.95以上がさらに好ましい。線形最小自乗法の相関係数が0.90未満では、検量線の精度が落ち、乳性食品の50%粒子径を精度良く算出できなくなる虞がある。 In the present invention, the 50% particle size of the dairy food is determined by, for example, nonlinear least square method or linearity with respect to the correlation between the measured value of absorbance by light irradiation and the measured value of 50% particle size by a particle size distribution measuring device. A known approximation method such as a least square method is applied. Then, the correlation can be calculated in advance using a mathematical formula or the like, and the absorbance of the measurement sample or the control sample can be actually measured and applied to the correlation mathematical formula or the like. However, the 50% particle size of the dairy food is not particularly limited as long as it is calculated using the correlation between the measured value of absorbance by light irradiation and the measured value of 50% particle size by a particle size distribution measuring device. Specifically, the correlation between the measured value of absorbance at which light irradiation is at a wavelength of 500 nm to 1100 nm and the measured value of 50% particle size by a particle size distribution measuring device is calculated using a calibration curve or a scientific calculator, and then linear The least square method is applied, and mathematical formulas and conversion coefficients are calculated in advance.
Then, the absorbance of the measurement sample and the control sample is actually measured, and the 50% particle size of the dairy food is calculated by applying the mathematical formula and the conversion factor calculated in advance. Note that the correlation coefficient (R 2 ) of the linear least square method such as a calibration curve is preferably 0.90 or more, more preferably 0.93 or more, and further preferably 0.95 or more. If the correlation coefficient of the linear least squares method is less than 0.90, the accuracy of the calibration curve is lowered, and there is a possibility that the 50% particle diameter of dairy foods cannot be accurately calculated.
