Optimization of microwave roasting of peanuts and evaluation of its physicochemical and sensory attributes.

ABSTRACT: In this study, the microwave (MW) roasting (MWR) of peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) is attempted, optimized and compared with conventional drum roasting. A two factor/three level face centered composite design based MWR experiments was conducted at different roasting time (60, 180 and 300 s) and MW power levels (180, 540 and 900 W). The roasting quality was analyzed by physicochemical and sensory attributes of roasted peanuts and extracted oil viz., moisture loss, hardness, browning index (BI), induction period (IP) based on Rancimat, peroxide value (PV) and overall acceptability (OA), respectively. A roasting time and MW power dependent improvement in the desired quality of roasted peanuts and extracted oil was observed attributable to the formation of antioxidant Maillard reaction compounds. A second order polynomial model adequately described the roasting experimental data (p < 0.0001, R² > 0.90) with an insignificant lack of fit (p > 0.05). Using response surface methodology, the MWR was optimized at roasting time of 201 s and MW power level of 900 W which yielded favorable values of quality attributes (moisture loss, 3.06%; hardness, 4528.34 g; BI, 58.89; IP, 8.12 h; PV, 8.80 milliequivalents O₂/kg; OA, 6.40). Furthermore, the quality assessment of ground peanuts for selected time-power combinations (low, optimum and high roasts) was attempted using scanning electron microscopy, electronic nose and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy which revealed better quality of optimized MWR peanuts.

Project description:The aim of this study was to determine the effect of feeding licuri cake to lambs on the sensory characteristics, physicochemical characteristics and fatty acid (FA) profile of meat from lambs. Forty-four crossbred Santa Ines lambs (21.2 ± 2.70 kg body weight; 6 months old) were housed in individual pens and fed 4 experimental diets, containing 0, 8, 16 or 24% licuri cake (DM basis). The averages concentrations of ash (11.4), pH (5.82), lightness (38.1), cooking loss (26.8) or shear-force resistance (2.48) of lamb meat were not affected by the licuri cake diets. However, there was a linear decrease (P < 0.01) of redness and chroma indexes, lipid and protein contents, whereas the moisture content of the meat (P < 0.001) increased linearly due to the inclusion of licuri cake in lambs' diets. The licuri cake inclusion in the lambs feed linearly increased (P < 0.05) the fatty acids concentrations of C12:0, C17:0, C20:0, C20:1, C18:3, C20:3, C20:4 and ?PUFA/?MUFA ratio, ??-3 and atherogenicity index (AI). However, C18:1 cis, C20:2, C20:5, ?MUFA, ?MUFA/?SFA and ??-6:??-3 ratios in the longissimus lumborum of lambs linearly decreased by licuri cake inclusion. There was a quadratic increase (P < 0.05) on C14:0 (maximum point 4.94 g/100 g FAME to 14.5% licuri inclusion), C16:1 (maximum point 8.59 g/100 g FAME to 10.7% licuri inclusion) and enzymatic activities of ?9-desaturase C16 (maximum point 27.5 g/100 g FAME to 10.6% licuri inclusion) in the longissimus lumborum of lambs fed due to increased concentrations of licuri cake. However, there was a quadratic decrease (P = 0.04) in ?PUFA/?SFA ratio with minimum concentration of 0.63 g/100 g FAME to 11.1% inclusion. The inclusion of licuri cake in the lambs diet did not change (P > 0.05) the concentrations of SFA C10:0, C15:0, C16:0, C18:0, C14:1, MUFA C18:1 trans, PUFA C18:2 cis, CLA, total sum of ?SFA and ?PUFA, desirable fatty acids (DFA), hypocholesterolemic:hypercholesterolemic index, and elongase and ?9-desaturase C18 enzymes. Licuri cake in the lamb diet improved (P < 0.05) meat aroma, flavor and overall acceptance by consumers. Licuri cake inclusion in the diet of lambs improves sensory attributes of meat and the meat fatty acid profile becomes nutritionally healthier for the human diet because do not affect major FA of meat; however, the growth performance of finishing lambs is reduced.
