Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the effect of foaming agent (egg white (EW)), foam stabilizer (carboxyl methyl cellulose (CMC)) and whipping time on drying rate and quality of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentus) paste dried under air oven, microwave oven and mechanical dryer. A 43 factorial experiment in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used to study the effect of four levels each of foaming agent (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%EW), foam stabilizer (0.15%, 0.30%, 0.45% and 0.60%CMC) and whipping time (3, 5, 7 and 9[Formula: see text]min) on the drying rate and the quality of foam-mat dried tomato powder in the three drying equipment. Each trial was performed in triplicates making a total number of 576 samples that were individually tested and measured. 25[Formula: see text]g sample of the paste was dried to a moisture content of 7.60% (wb) for 8[Formula: see text]h in mechanical dryer and oven dryer at temperatures of 55[Formula: see text]C and 50[Formula: see text]C, respectively, and 10[Formula: see text]min in microwave oven at 540[Formula: see text]W. Data obtained from the experiments were statistically analyzed using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) while the Duncan’s Multiple Range Test was used to compare the means. Results showed that the drying rate increased with increase in foaming agent, foam stabilizer and whipping with minimum values of 9.21[Formula: see text]g/h obtained in mechanical dryer, 9.31[Formula: see text]g/h in air oven and 8.05[Formula: see text]g/h in microwave oven. Increase in foaming agent, foam stabilizer and whipping time did not cause any adverse effect on vitamin C, ash, protein, fat, carbohydrate, crude fiber contents of the samples. Samples reached a stable moisture content of 7.60% (wb) in less than 8[Formula: see text]h in mechanical dryer and air and less than 10[Formula: see text]min in microwave oven. The results of the study showed that EW, CMC and whipping time influenced the drying rate and quality of foam-mat dried tomato powder.

Quality is one of the important factors in producing lemea - a fermented bamboo shoots and fish. Objectives of this research were to find out effects of preparation and their interaction to produce the best quality of lamea. This research used randomized complete block design with two factors and three replications. The first factor was preparations (P) consisting of four levels, namely preparation by smoothing and stirring (P1), preparation by cutting and stirring (P2), preparation by smoothing and coating (P3), and preparation by cutting and coating (P4). The second factor was blanching (B) consisting of two levels, namely without blanching (B0) and blanching (B1). In order to determine its quality, lemea was observed for its content of lactic acid bacteria, total volatile nitrogen, moisture content, and protein content as well as its sensory characteristics (color, aroma, texture, and overall acceptability scores). Collected data were analysed for its variances and the results showed that preparation and blanching treatments significantly affected lemea’s total volatile nitrogen and sensory characteristics.  The best lemea quality was obtained from combination treatment of blanching with chopped and stirred preparation (B1P2). The lemea had lactic acid bacteria of 10.1160 log cfu/g, total volatile nitrogen of 43.14 mg/100g, moisture content of 87.99% (b/v), color score of 4.34 (yellowish white), aroma score of 3.78 (rot), texture score of 4.53 (soft) and overall acceptance score of 3.90 (likes).

Abstract. Chaerani N, Sudrajat DJ, Siregar IZ, Siregar UJ. 2019. Growth performance and wood quality of white jabon (Neolamarckia cadamba) progeny testing at Parung Panjang, Bogor, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 20: 2295-2301. The aim of this study was to evaluate the genetic parameters of growth and wood quality in white jabon progeny test at 54 months old in Parung Panjang, Bogor. The 105 half-sib families obtained from 12 provenances were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with five replications. Wood quality was assessed both in a non-destructive way using a pilodyn and by destructive method using wood sample taker. Results indicated that the mean value ranged from 5.10 to 10.15 m for height, 6.67 to 15.30 cm for diameter, 2.30 to 3.62 cm for pilodyn penetration, 0.66 to 0.82 g/cm3 for wood density, 0.33 to 0.50 for specific gravity, and 66 to 111 % for moisture content, respectively. There were significant differences among 105 families for all traits except moisture content. The high heritability estimate was found for height (0.4-0.69) and basic density (0.27-0.59). Applying 80% selection intensity on diameter and leaving 84 best families in each block will produce a high total genetic gain. Pilodyn penetration had negative correlation with diameter, wood density, and specific gravity.

The purpose of the study was to optimize the effective drying conditions and different foaming agent concentrations on the biochemical properties of foam mat dried tomato powder. Foaming was achieved by using egg albumin as foaming agent and sodium salt of Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) as foam stabilizer with different concentrations. Drying was achieved by using different drying temperatures. The changes in different physicochemical properties of foam mat dried powder viz. total soluble solid (TSS), pH, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity, β-Carotene, DPPH radical scavenging activity were observed. Foams were prepared from different concentrations of egg albumin (3-7% w/w) and sodium salt of Carboxymethyl Cellulose (1%, 0.5%). The drying temperatures were varied from 60°C to 70°C. The drying time changes with different drying temperatures. It was found that the drying time decreased with the increased foaming agent concentrations as well as with higher drying temperature. It takes almost 13 hrs for drying at 70°C. TSS and pH content was increased with the increase of foaming agent concentrations and foam stabilizer’s concentrations but decreased with the increasing temperatures. Ascorbic acid decreased with the increase of foaming agent concentrations and temperatures but increased with CMC concentration. Titratable acidity content of foam mat dried tomato powder was decreased with the increasing foaming agent concentrations but increased with the higher temperatures and decreased CMC concentration. β-Carotene contents increased with the increase of foaming agent concentrations but decreased with the increase of temperatures and foam stabilizer concentration. DPPH free radical scavenging activity increased with the increase of foaming agent, foam stabilizer and temperatures. Based on the maximum retention of physicochemical properties, the optimum treatment of foaming agent was found to be 7% egg white + 1% CMC at 60°C.

The effect of storage materials on the quality of tomato powder was studied. Fresh, firm and matured red tomatoes were washed, sorted and sliced to a uniform thickness of 5mm. The sliced tomatoes were pre-treated by dipping in 1% calcium chloride (CaCl2) and 0.2% potassium metabislphite (KMS) solution for 10 minutes at room temperature. 200g each of the sample was dried at temperatures of 600C until equilibrium moisture content was attained. The dried tomatoes were ground into powder and stored in Black polyethylene [BPE], White polyethylene [WPE], and Laminated Aluminium Foil [LAF] pouches for 6 weeks. The moisture content, crude protein, crude fibre, fat, total ash, and vitamin C of the tomato powder were determined using the method prescribed by AOAC. The carotene contents were determined by HPLC. The proximate analysis was repeated after 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6weeks of storage.  There was an increase in moisture content and ash content after 6 weeks of storage while a decrease in value of protein, fat and vitamin C content occurred after the storage period. All the parameters measured were best retained by the laminated aluminium foil (LAF) compared to black polyethylene (BPE) and white polyethylene (WPE) packaging material for the entire period of the study.

Abstract The effects of microwave power on microwave drying rates and the physical quality of kaffir lime leaves were studied. Three power levels were used in this study, high (723 watts), medium (537 watts), and low (420 watts). The moisture content, drying rate, color (L, a, b), and organoleptic parameters of each power level will be compared with the oven drying method (60°C). The result shows that the final moisture content of the high, medium, and low power of microwave drying are 6.06, 4.26%, and 6.16%db respectively, which is lower than oven drying, 16.62%db. Besides, the drying rate of microwave drying is 26.39-48.71%db/minute, higher than oven drying 0.32%db/minute. Dried kaffir lime leaves with medium level power (537 watt) has the lowest color difference (ΔE = 1.0 ± 0.29) compared to fresh leaves. While, the color and aromatic preference test dried kaffir lime leaves by microwave drying was preferable than oven drying.
