Moisture Transfer Characteristics and Microbiological Stability of Fermented Pre-gelatinized Plantain and Soybean Based Complementary Food Flours

Agbor Evelyn Agbor, Charles Chukwuma Ariahu, Peter A. Adie & E.C. Ariahu · Asian Food Science Journal · 2024

The effect of gelatinization and fermentation on the moisture sorption characteristics and microbial stability of complementary foods from unripe plantain fruits and soybean seeds was evaluated. The plantain was heated to obtain 10%, 18%, 23%, 33%, 74% and 100% starch gelatinizat...

Moisture Sorption Characteristics as Influenced by Application of Hurdles in Dambu-nama Production

M. O. Eke, C. C. Ariahu, M. A. Igyor & S. M. Gabriel · Asian Food Science Journal · 2021

Moisture transfer characteristics of dambu-nama (DN) as influenced by addition of citric acid, salt and sugar as hurdles were investigated. Four products comprising DN with 0.1% citric acid + 2% salt and 2% sugar (DNC0.1); DN+ 0.2% citric + 2% salt + 2% sugar (DNC0.2); DN + 0.3%...
