최적화된 분자압축 탈수건조 생강에 열풍건조, 동결건조, 재사용 탈수액을 사용한 탈수건조 생강을 비교하여 품질평가를 실시하였다. 품질평가항목은 일반성분, 색도, 수분흡수지수(WAI) 및 수분용해지수(WSI), 총당, 환원당, DPPH 항산화활성 측정, gingerol 함량 측정을 통하여 생강의 품질을 비교하였다. 일반성분의 경우 분자압축 탈수 건조한 생강이 열풍건조 및 동결 건조한 생강보다는 낮았지만 이는 탈수액으로 성분이 용출되는 공정의 특성의
The qualities of ginger prepared by an MPD (molecular press dehydration) method using maltodextrin, or dried using reused dehydration liquid, or prepared by freeze-drying or hot-air drying, were compared in terms of approximate overall composition, color, water absorption index, water solubility index, total sugar level, reducing sugar concentration, antioxidant activity, and gingerol content. The approximate composition of ginger prepared by the MPD method was lower in overall biochemical content than were those of gingers prepared using other methods. Ginger prepared by the MPD method retained the original ginger color. The water absorption and solubility index of ginger prepared by the MPD method (using maltodextrin) were better than those of gingers dried using other methods. The total sugar content did not change noticeably upon processing. The reducing sugar content of ginger prepared by hot-air drying was low. The antioxidant activity of ginger prepared by the MPD method was higher than that of freeze-dried and hot air-dried ginger samples, with values lower than those of BHA (3(2)-t-Butyl-4-hydroxyanisole) and BHT (2,6-Di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol). The gingerol content of ginger prepared by the freeze-drying method was higher than that of gingers prepared by other methods. However, ginger constituents were present in the dehydration liquid used in the MPD method. The results indicate that both the MPD method (using maltodextrin) and the use of reused dehydration liquid are efficient methods by which ginger can be dried.
