The effect of pre-treatments on the colour of freeze-dried strawberries was studied. Strawberries were subjected to different ultrasound and osmotic dehydration conditions followed by freeze-drying. Two concentration levels of sucrose solution (25 and 50 % w/w) and four levels of processing time (from 10 min to 45 min) were studied. Also, ultrasound application without using an osmotic solution was studied. Colour was quantified with a colorimetric analysis (CIE LCh). Sonicated strawberries presented higher lightness (L) and lower hue (h) than fresh and non-treated strawberries (control samples). The sonicated and osmo-sonicated strawberries have presented a more reddish and vivid colour then the control samples.
研究了预处理对冻干草莓颜色的影响。草莓经过不同的超声和渗透脱水处理后进行冻干。研究了两种浓度的蔗糖溶液(25%和 50%w/w)和四个处理时间水平(从 10 分钟到 45 分钟)。此外,还研究了不使用渗透溶液的超声处理。颜色通过比色分析(CIE LCh)进行量化。与新鲜草莓和未经处理的草莓(对照样品)相比,超声处理的草莓具有更高的亮度(L)和更低的色调(h)。超声和渗透超声处理的草莓比对照样品呈现出更红和更鲜艳的颜色。
