Summary:碩士 === 國立海洋大學 === 水產食品科學系 === 85 === Abstract Fish essence produced from mackerel was studied by a method modified from theprocess of producing traditional chicken essence. Protein extractions were carried out at either pH 6.0 or pH 8.0 for 10 min. at temperature ranging from 5 to 120℃ with the addition of Na salt. Results showed that more protein was recovered at pH 8.0 and as the temperature lowered. However, essence extracted at temperature 50℃ or below would gelatinize during subsequent heating which is necessary for clarifying and pasteurization purposes which made it unsuitable to operate below 50℃. DSC suggested thatthis may be due to a partial degradation of myosin head during a prolong frozen storage of the mackerel. There was no significant difference of the amount of protein extracted between 120 and 50℃ while the TCA soluble nitrogen was significant higher for sample extracted at 50℃. Thus, the highest yield of fish essence extraction was found to be at pH 6.0, 50℃ with the addition 0.03M NaCl. Results of amino acid analysis suggested that fish essence has significantly higher His and Tau content, the predominated amino acids in the product, than commercial chicken essence. On the other hand, the amino acid derivatives, Ans and Car, were the predominated compounds in chicken essence which were not present in fish essence.Endogenous protease hydrolysis of muscle protein was further investigated. Results showed that there was a synergistic effect of Na and Ca to protein degradation for chicken muscle with an optimum pH at 4.0. For mackerel, however, the highest TCA soluble nitrogen were found at pH 4.9 with the presence of Ca alone. The K value of mackerel muscle hydrolysates suggested that the time of autolysis must be less than 6 hr. Inosine was the most from the extraction with homogenization and 2% NaCl. The extraction with 0.5% CaCl2 the quantity of GMP was the highest and in that with 2% NaCl and 0.5% CaCl2 the most one was IMP. Besides, the lowest quantity ofHypoxanthine was obtained by extraction with 2% NaCl when the autolysis time of mackerel was at 6 hr.
