| description |
Although jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) is highly nutritious fruit yet it is easily
perishable and has limited shelf life in nature. In spite of vast potential and usefulness,
jackfruit remain as an underutilized fruit. A gap in the marketing of jackfruits and
its processed value-added products can be fully explored in order to gain additional
attention from food technology and security. The aims of this study are to determine
the effect of different types and concentration of foaming agents on drying
characteristics of foam mat drying jackfruit and to evaluate the effect of foam mat
drying process variables on the physicochemical properties of foam mat dried
jackfruit powder using various foaming agents, namely maltodextrin (5 to 20 %),
methylcellulose (5 to 20 %) and gum arabic (0.5 to 2.0 %) at constant temperature
(50°C) and thickness (3 mm) were conducted. The results showed that the drying
characteristic of foam mat dried jackfruit was best fitted to the Page model as high
correlation R2 > 0.88 was obtained. The results showed foaming agents were
significantly factor that affect the physical properties, phytochemical content and
antioxidant. In general, increased concentration of foaming agents reduced the foam
density, moisture content, water activity, water absorption index, but increased color,
water solubility index, flowability and bioactive compound. Rapid drying rate was
observed when high foam expansion and low foam density was achieved
subsequently resulting in reduction of drying time by increasing concentration of
foaming agents. Shorter the drying time, higher the retention of bioactive properties
in jackfruit powder. The optimum powder was formulated with 15% of gum arabic
was recommended to provide superior flowability characteristic and excellent
retention of phenolic, flavonoid and carotenoid in production of foam mat dried
jackfruit powder. This contribution can be applied in future food product
development such as ice cream, functional food and confectionery products. |
