Abstract
|
|
|
This study was performed to investigate the changes of Monascus pigment, the monacolin K contents, antioxidant components and quality characteristics of several varieties of red yeast rice (Hangaru, Shingil, and Samkwang) that were fermented by Monascus purpureus for seven different time periods (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 days). The Monascus pigment of all the rice varieties increased with increasing the fermentation period. The yellow group pigment significantly increased from 1.019 to 4.111 and the red group increased from 0.627 to 4.221 at 10 days for the Hangaru variety. The monacolin K contents significantly increased at 15 days fermentation and the amount of monacolin K at 30 days fermentation was the highest (234.92 mg/kg) for Hangaru, followed by Shingil (201.85 mg/kg) and Samkwang (187.33 mg/kg). The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of Hangaru were 6.02 and 0.67 mg/g, respectively, and these values were higher than those for Samkwang (4.65 and 0.59 mg/g). These results indicated that the processed rice variety Hangaru is suitable for production of red yeast rice, which can be used to enhance the functionality of food.
