Abstract
In this study, the functional properties of royal court (RC) soy sauces, Gungjung-kanjang, were analyzed in vitro. RC soy sauces, traditional soy sauce, and commercial soy sauces were fractionated based on an MW cut-off of 1,000. The total phenolic compounds smaller than and larger than 1,000 MW (low and high fraction) in RC soy sauces were determined to be mg/L and mg/L, respectively. The low fraction of RC soy sauces showed around 51% superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity, which was higher than other soy sauces. Among RC soy sauces, Cheong-jang showed significantly high activity. Significant differences in fibrinolytic and antibacterial activities were not observed between soy sauces. -Glucosidase inhibitory activities in the low and high fractions of RC soy sauces were in the range from % and %, respectively. However, -glucosidase inhibitory activity in the high fraction of Kot-jang soy sauce was 75.88%1.20%. Lipase inhibitory activities in the low fractions of RC soy sauces, especially Cheong-jang, Deot-kangang, Jin-jang, and Euyeuk-kanjang, were also measured.
