Description

本発明は、加工飲食品用の耐熱性芽胞形成菌の増殖抑制剤、加工飲食品の製造工程における耐熱性芽胞形成菌の増殖抑制方法若しくは耐熱性芽胞形成菌による腐敗を防止する方法に関する。また本発明は、このような耐熱性芽胞形成菌増殖抑制剤を配合した飲食品および耐熱性芽胞形成菌の増殖が抑制された加工飲食品の製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a growth inhibitor of heat-resistant spore-forming bacteria for processed foods and drinks, a method for inhibiting the growth of heat-resistant spore-forming bacteria in the production process of processed foods and drinks, or a method of preventing spoilage due to heat-resistant spore-forming bacteria. Moreover, this invention relates to the manufacturing method of the food / beverage products which mix | blended such a heat-resistant spore formation microbe growth inhibitor, and the processed food / beverage products with which the growth of the heat-resistant spore formation microbe was suppressed.

一般に、加工飲食品の菌汚染による腐敗を防止する方法としては、加熱殺菌処理がもっともよく知られているが、バチルス属(Bacillus)などの細菌のように「芽胞」と呼ばれる硬い殻をもった耐熱性の高い細胞構造を形成している菌を加熱により完全に殺菌するには、高温高圧処理や高温長時間処理といった厳しい条件の加熱処理が必要とされる。   In general, heat sterilization is the most well-known method for preventing spoilage due to bacterial contamination of processed foods and drinks, but it has a hard shell called “spore” like bacteria such as Bacillus. In order to completely sterilize bacteria forming a cell structure having high heat resistance by heating, heat treatment under severe conditions such as high-temperature and high-pressure treatment and high-temperature and long-time treatment is required.

しかし、高温高圧殺菌や高温長時間殺菌といった処理は、飲食品の本来の食感や風味を著しく損なうことから、加工飲食品の種類によっては適用することに限界があり、そのような厳しい条件下にさらされる機会を減らしつつ、乳化剤等の静菌効果を有する物質を添加するなどの手法が併用されることが多い。 However, treatments such as high-temperature and high-pressure sterilization and high-temperature and long-term sterilization significantly impair the original texture and flavor of food and drink, so there are limits to application depending on the type of processed food and drink. In many cases, techniques such as adding a substance having a bacteriostatic effect, such as an emulsifier, are used in combination with reducing the chances of exposure to water.

例えば、加工飲食品のうち果汁飲料やスポーツ飲料に代表される酸性飲料は、pHが概ね3〜4.5と低いことから、通常の細菌、酵母、カビの殺菌を目的とした加熱細菌条件により商業的無菌を確保するのが通常である。食品衛生法には65℃・10分という比較的低温短時間の殺菌処理方法が規定されている。しかしながら、耐熱性芽胞形成菌は多種多様であり、それらの条件で生育可能な微生物も存在する点から、そのような殺菌処理では、依然として、上記耐熱性芽胞形成菌のひとつである耐熱性好酸性菌による汚染の問題が残る。耐熱性好酸性菌とは、アリシクロバチルス・アシドテレストリス(Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris)に代表される、グラム陽性の有芽胞細菌であるアリシクロバチルス(Alicyclobacillus)属に属する細菌であって、pH4以下の酸性下においても通常の加熱殺菌処理では容易には死滅せず、果汁中のフェルラ酸を異臭原因物質となるグアイアコールに変換させる作用を持つ。 For example, acidic beverages typified by fruit juices and sports drinks among processed foods and drinks have a low pH of about 3 to 4.5, so that they are subject to heating bacteria conditions for the purpose of sterilizing normal bacteria, yeasts and molds. It is usual to ensure commercial sterility. The food hygiene law stipulates a sterilization treatment method at a relatively low temperature of 65 ° C. for 10 minutes. However, there are various types of thermostable spore-forming bacteria, and there are microorganisms that can grow under these conditions. Therefore, in such sterilization treatment, heat-resistant spore-forming bacteria are still one of the above-mentioned thermostable spore-forming bacteria. The problem of contamination by bacteria remains. The thermostable acidophilic bacterium is a bacterium belonging to the genus Alicyclobacillus , which is a gram-positive spore bacterium represented by Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris , and has an acidic pH of 4 or less. Even under normal heat sterilization treatment, it is not easily killed, and has the effect of converting ferulic acid in fruit juice to guaiacol, which is a cause of odor.

また、pHが概ね5〜6.5と酸性飲料よりもpHが高いコーヒー飲料等は、通常、123℃・20分程度の殺菌処理条件が採用されるが、上記耐熱性芽胞形成菌のひとつであるフラットサワー菌(Bacillus coagulans
Geobacillus stearothermophilus)による汚染の問題が未だ残る。
In addition, coffee beverages having a pH of about 5 to 6.5 and a pH higher than that of acidic beverages usually employ sterilization conditions of about 123 ° C. for about 20 minutes, but are one of the above heat-resistant spore-forming bacteria. Some flat sour fungi ( Bacillus coagulans ,
The problem of contamination by Geobacillus stearothermophilus still remains.

そこで、上記耐熱性好酸性菌による汚染に対する具体的な防止策として、例えば、ジグリセリンミリスチン酸エステルおよび/またはその塩を有効成分として含む耐熱性好酸性菌抑制剤(特許文献1)、カテキン類を配合することによって耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖が抑制する方法(特許文献2)、紫ニンジン汁を有効成分として含有することを特徴とする耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制剤(特許文献3)、ブドウ種子の水抽出物およびブドウ果実搾汁粕の水抽出物から選ばれる少なくとも1種を酸性飲料中に特定量配合することを特徴とする酸性飲料の製造方法、(特許文献4)、ホップ抽出物を添加することを特徴とする耐熱性好酸性菌の増殖抑制方法(特許文献5)、乳酸を特定量添加し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(特許文献6)などが提案されている。   Therefore, as a specific preventive measure against contamination by the above heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria, for example, a heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria inhibitor containing diglycerin myristic acid ester and / or a salt thereof as an active ingredient (Patent Document 1), catechins A method for inhibiting the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria by blending (Patent Document 2), and a growth inhibitor for heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria characterized by containing purple carrot juice as an active ingredient (Patent Document 3) , A method for producing an acidic beverage, wherein a specific amount of at least one selected from an aqueous extract of grape seeds and an aqueous extract of grape fruit juice is mixed in an acidic beverage, (Patent Document 4), hops A method for inhibiting the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria characterized by adding an extract (Patent Document 5), and a method for producing an acidic beverage in which a specific amount of lactic acid is added to suppress the growth of heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria Patent Document 6) have been proposed.

また、上記フラットサワー菌による汚染を防止する方策としては、例えば、ジグリセリン脂肪酸モノエステル組成物を配合したり(特許文献7)、マンノシルエリスリトールリピッドを配合したり(特許文献8)、特定の脂肪酸エステルを特定比で配合したりする方法(特許文献9)等が提案されている。   In addition, as a measure for preventing contamination by the flat sour bacterium, for example, a diglycerin fatty acid monoester composition is blended (Patent Document 7), a mannosyl erythritol lipid is blended (Patent Document 8), or a specific fatty acid. A method of blending esters in a specific ratio (Patent Document 9) and the like have been proposed.

しかし、これら提案された物質の多くは、その物質特有の匂いや味を加工飲食物に付与することとなり、飲食品本来の有する風味等を損なわないとまでは言えなかった。   However, many of these proposed substances impart a unique odor and taste to the processed food and drink, and it cannot be said that the flavor and the like inherent to the food and drink are not impaired.

<Confirmation of growth inhibitory effect of each sugar on heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria>
It was decided to check the growth inhibitory effect of each sugar on heat-resistant acidophilic bacteria. First, prepare 40% solutions (pH 3.5) of monosaccharide (D-glucose, D-psicose, D-sorbose or D-tagatose), disaccharide (sucrose), rare sugar-containing syrup and tagatose syrup, Next, a “test solution” was prepared by inoculating the above-mentioned heat-resistant highly acidic bacteria to 10 3 CFU / mL in a medium (prepared medium) prepared according to the composition of Table 1 using each of these sugar solutions. . Next, 50 μL of each test solution was applied to a YSG agar medium (n = 3), and the time-dependent change in the number of colonies on the agar medium (on the 0th day and after storage at 45 ° C. for 1 day) was observed. Note that the test solution was diluted 100-fold, 1000-fold or 10000-fold with sterilized water as necessary and applied to a YSG agar medium. The number of bacteria per 1 mL of the test solution was expressed as a logarithmic value (the bottom was 10) of “(average number of colonies per plate) × (1000/50) × (dilution rate)” (Table 2).
The presence or absence of the growth inhibitory effect on the fungus is confirmed by comparison with each control group containing sugar (sucrose) or D-glucose generally used in processed foods and drinks, and the logarithmic value above both control groups. When the value is small, the test group has an effect of suppressing the growth of bacteria (1 to 3 points), and when the logarithmic value is 1 or more smaller than that of the control group, the test group is markedly effective (3 points). When the logarithmic value was the same as or larger than that of the control group, there was no effect (0 points).
