감마선 조사에 따른 미역귀(Undaria pinnatifida Sporophyll) 열수추출물 첨가 파운드케이크의 품질 특성

Abstract

This study investigated the quality changes and characteristics (0, 3, 6, 9%) of pound cake made with flour that included gamma irradiated (50 kGy) hot water extracts of Undaria pinnatifida sporophyll (WEUS). The pH of pound cakes decreased with increasing powder concentration, and gamma-irradiated pound cakes had lower pH than non-irradiated pound cakes at the same powder concentrations. The height, volume, specific loaf volume, and baking loss showed no significant differences between control and experimental groups. With increasing powder concentration, the L value of the crust and crumbs decreased, but the a value increased. The b value showed different tendencies between crust and crumb. The crust value was reduced with higher content of WEUS, but the crumb value increased. Gamma-irradiated pound cakes were also less hard than non-irradiated pound cakes. On the other hand, adhesiveness and springiness decreased with increasing powder concentration, but were not significantly different from the control. Also, gumminess and chewiness decreased but not significantly so. The hardness after several days of storage (5, 10, and 15 days) was higher than the control, and the springiness and cohesiveness were significantly reduced with increasing concentration compared to the control. The retrogradation increased in the control group, but it did not in the experimental groups. Results of radical scavenging activity using DPPH indicated that the gamma-irradiated group was higher than the non-irradiated group and it was also higher with higher concentrations of powder. In a sensory evaluation, when compared to the control, pound cake with 3% WEUS was superior in taste, flavor, and overall preference. Therefore, it was found that pound cake with 3% WEUS powder with gamma irradiation of 50 kGy added could improve the yield, taste, and antioxidant activity of pound cake.
