Effects Of Drying Methods On The Quality And Microstructure Of Armillaria Luteo-Virens, Meng Di, Dang Bin, Zhang Jie, Jie Xiaoxia, Gasongchenglin

Food and Machinery

Objective:This study aimed to determine the most suitable drying method for Armillaria luteo-virens.Methods:The effects of solar drying, hot air drying, vacuum-freeze drying, vacuum drying and microwave-hot-air combined drying on the nutrition, functional components, color, rehydration ratio, shrinkage ratio, rehydration structure and microstructure of A. luteo-virens were compared.Results:The content of crude protein, crude polysaccharide and total flavonoids in vacuum-freeze drying group was the highest, and the content of total phenol was second highest and lower than the vacuum drying group. Its color difference was the smallest, with high rehydration ratio, and the shrinkage degree was …

Objective: This study aimed to explore the effects of different drying methods on the volatile components of taro slices. Methods: Volatile compound composition and volatile characteristics of five different drying methods of dried taro slices were studied. Taro and the ones dried by five drying methods, i.e. hot-air drying (HAD), contact-ultrasound enhanced hot-air drying (CU-HAD), far-infrared radiation drying (FIRD), contact-ultrasound enhanced far-infrared radiation drying (CU-FIRD) and freeze drying (FD),were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with water-vapor distillation method. Volatile components were analyzed in conjunction with principal component analysis (PCA). Results: A total of 149 volatile compounds …

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) rhizomes are mostly used as spice and medicine due to their high aroma intensity and medicinal bioactive compounds. However, the volatile compounds of ginger, partly responsible for its aroma and medicinal properties, can be affected by the pretreatment, drying method, and extraction processes employed. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of pretreatment and drying on the volatile compounds of yellow ginger variety at nine months of maturation. The effect of potassium metabisulfite (KMBS) and blanching pretreatment and drying on the volatile compounds of ginger using head space solid-phase microextraction with GCMS/MS …
