Antioxidative Capacity and Quality Characteristics of Yanggaeng with Added Collagen Powder
This experiment was carried out to find the quality characteristics of yanggaeng added antioxidant rich collagen powder in the color, sugar contents, texture, radical scavenging activity and electronic nose detected flavor. L value and a value kept decreased as the more collagen powder was added in the yanggaeng while b value was increased significantly at the same time. Sugar contents was increased significantly from 43 °Brix in the control to 48% in the 10% treatment (p<0.05). Hardness in the 10% treatment of collagen powder increased biggest among the treatments but springiness decreased when hardness increased. And adhesiveness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were also increased with more the collagen powder in the treatments, therefore 10% treatment showed biggest result significantly. Radical scavenging activity kept increased with higher addition of collagen powder and it resulted 60% of radical scavenging activity in the 10% treatment. In the flavor test under electronic nose experiment, 10% of collagen powder treatment was believed it flavored most for it was found in the furthest from the AIR location. Control was found also in the nearest from the AIR, which meant it has least flavor than any other treatment. Also 2.5% and 5% of collagen powder added treatments showed little differences of flavor from control, which meant 5% of treatment was believed idea condition in the treatments. With the above experimental results, 5% of collagen powder treatment in the yanggaeng manufacturing was chosed as the best mixture ratio in the test.
