It helps students develop a deeper understanding of the Functional, Anti Nutritional, Pasting And Mineral Properties Of Composite Meals From Potatoes And Plantain Peel during their final-year academic research.
This study investigated some quality attributes of sweet potato flour (SPF) and unripe plantain peel flour (UPF) meals. Simplex centroid mixture design was used to obtain 17 blends from the flours. The nutrient composition, color, and functional properties of the blends were evaluated using standard methods. Data were subjected to analysis of variance and treatment means were compared using Duncan’s multiple range test at 5% probability level. There were significant (p < .05) differences in the nutrient composition, and functional and pasting properties of the blends. The crude protein, crude fiber, ash, foaming capacity, emulsion capacity, and least gelation capacity of the meals increased as the PPF level increased. The blends had Na/K ratio of <1.0. Plantain peel and sweet potato flour meals are desirable for alleviating malnutrition in Nigeria and developing new food formulations.
Abstract Tip: Your Abstract should provide a concise summary of the Functional, Anti Nutritional, Pasting And Mineral Properties Of Composite Meals From Potatoes And Plantain Peel, including the issue statement, methodology, findings, and conclusion. Abs-Tip-29731
