Abstract
Makgeolli residue protein (MRP) was extracted from byproduct of makgeolli processing, and MRP films containing various plasticizers were prepared. Among the plasticizers used in this study, MRP film containing glycerol-sorbitol (1:2) showed the most desirable mechanical properties. In addition, MRP films containing wasabi extract (WE) were prepared by incorporating different amounts (0, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2%) of WE into film-forming solution. Tensile strength, elongation at break, and moisture content of MRP films decreased with addition of WE as compared with the control. However, MRP films containing WE showed antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes. Application of MRP film containing 1.0% WE to beef packaging decreased populations of E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes after storage at 4°C for 8 days by 1.1 and 0.41 log CFU/g, respectively, compared with those of the control. In addition, the peroxide value and 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance value decreased by 53 and 56%, respectively, compared to the control. Therefore, these results suggest that MRP film containing WE can be used to improve the quality of beef during storage.
