Instrumental Texture Profile Analysis (TPA) of Shelled Sunflower Seed Caramel Snack Using Response Surface Methodology

摘要: Models capable of predicting product quality shelled sunflower seed caramel snack have been developed using response surface methodology. The textural profile analysis was conducted on the snacks a texture analyzer. attributes measured were hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness, and resilience as function sugar kernels content. proportions affect characteristics significantly (p<0.05). values varied from 2.048 to 42.030 N, 1.002 5.003, 1.138 1.69, 2.773 228.146N, 0.301 0.779, respectively. highest hardness chewiness attained for with 70:30 proportion Similarly springiness observed in 50 : 30, 40, lowest w...
