Extension shelf life of batte by using hydrocolloids and gamma irradiation

Abstract

Available online xxxKeywords: Shelf lifeBatte Hydrocolloids Irradiation a b s t r a c t Batte (is baked french) one of the most baked coated most prevalent in the markets after the cake wrapping. Batte exposed generally two types of corruption which is occurring phenomenon of (anti-staling) and corruption microbial (molds). In this study produced batte with an attempt to prolong the period of its validity by addition 1.5% hydrocolloids, (which is 0.5% sodium alginate, 0.5% k-carrageenan and 0.5% hydroxyl propyl methylcellulose) (HPMC) to hard wheat flour 72% (HWF) to improve materials for mellowness and anti-staling, whereas batte exposed to gamma irradiation at doses 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3 and 5 kGy to decrease microbial load. Hydrocolloids at 1.5% improved the rheological properties of dough farinogragh and aextensograph parameters. The hydrocolloids increase flexibility, rubber and freshness of batte to 24 days compared to 8 days in control sample. Thiobarbituric acid (T.B.A) values at the end of storage at room temperature (ranged to 0.253 e0.352 mg malonaldehyde/kg) that were less than these mentioned by the Egyptian Standard. Also, gamma irradiation reduced the total bacterial count of batte product.Sensory evaluation of produced batte was done. The addition of 1.5% hydrocolloids and exposed to gamma irradiation had higher freshness and increase shelf-life for 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 days against only 15 days for control sample.

“…Similar results were also showed that 2.5 kGy of -irradiated bamboo shoots maintained the quality capable of long storage periods [30]. The utmost reduction in the bacterial population is mainly due to the direct or indirect effects of irradiation on the microorganisms as reported in various conducted research studies [31][32][33][34][35].…”
