Response surface methodology was used to assess the effect of soya level (10-30%), feed moisture content (12-20% w.b.), barrel temperature (110-150°C) and screw speed (250-450 rpm) on trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA),phytic acid (PA) tannin sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]-soya blends. Results showed that incorporation soybean [Glycine max Merr.] increased antinutritional factors in formulation butextrusion cooking considerably reduced these extruded snack. The extent reduction being...
Summary Investigations were carried out to see the impact of blanching time, pretreatment and storage packaging on physico‐chemical properties solar dehydrated cauliflower. The processing treatments selected for study time 3, 5, 7 9 min, potassium metabisulphite (KMS) having 0.5%, 1.0% 1.5% concentration level in high‐density polyethylene, laminated aluminium foil polypropylene. cauliflowers further processed dryer before packing it into different materials. Packed cauliflower was stored 6...
Comparative evaluation of the physical characteristics seeds, viz. color, size and density, proportion seed coat, pores on coat surface "hourglass" cells in longevity was made 12 soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] varieties. Physical properties influenced strength which provides protection from mechanical damage during preharvest postharvest operations. There significant genotypic variation for most characteristics, particularly, gap between cotyledon, shape distribution hourglass coat. Good...
Experiments were conducted to study the kinetics of colour change yellow sweet pepper during microwave-assisted convective drying at power levels 280, 210, 140, and 70 W; temperatures 60, 45, 30°C; a constant air velocity 1.5 m/s. Colour determined using Hunter's primary L, a, b values, chroma, hue, total (ΔE), browning index (BI) values. The results indicated that degradation ΔE, hue followed zero order b, first kinetics. rate was assumed have Arrhenius-type dependence on temperature....
Abstract Fresh cauliflower was cut into florets, blanched, treated and spread in trays to dry by means of a solar drying process. The influences packaging materials, blanching time, potassium metabisulphite (KMS) concentration levels on the quality dehydrated up 6 months storage were studied. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) present fresh 74.61 mg (100 g)−1. Results revealed that ascorbic decreased with an increase time but its retention high drying. Dehydrated had 581.37 g)−1 samples 0.5, 1.0 1.5%...
The present study was carried out to determine the physical as well physiological properties of three fresh pea seed lots (cv.Arkel) with moisture content and germination percentage varying from 14.94% 28.04% dry basis 80% 60% respectively.This variation in parameters obtained using accelerated aging (40C 100% RH).The geometric (spatial dimensions, sphericity surface area), gravimetric (terminal velocity, true density, test weight, bulk density porosity), frictional (angle repose,...
