Effect of Gac Fruit Aril Amounts on the Corn Milk Qualities

Authors

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to study the effect of gac fruit aril on the quality of the corn milk that had been supplemented with 0%, 2%, 4% and 6% of gac fruit aril. The physical, chemical and microbiological properties such as L*, a*, b* values, viscosity, sedimentation amounts, pH, total soluble solid content, lycopene content, percentage of antioxidant inhibition as DPPH assay as well as total plate count were also analyzed. In addition, a sensory evaluation of each product’s color, odor, taste, appearance and overall acceptability characteristics was performed using a 9-point hedonic scale by 30 untrained panelists. The results indicated that all values were significant difference (p<0.05), except for the pH and total soluble solid values. As the amounts of gac fruit aril increased, lycopene value and percentage of antioxidant inhibition values also significantly increased. The microbiological results demonstrated that total plate count followed in accordance with standard regulation. The results of sensory evaluation indicated that color, odor, taste, appearance and overall acceptability of corn milk products were significant difference. The supplementation of 2% of gac fruit aril showed the highest scores of taste, appearance and overall acceptability of 6.43, 6.53 and 53 งสุดคือ  26.60, respectively.                   Keywords aril ; gac fruit ;  corn milk
