ThesisItem Open Access Standardization of processing technology for instant kadhi premix(CCSHAU, 2018) Bansal, Amit; RekhaThe present investigation ―Standardization of processing technology for instant Kadhi premix‖ was conducted with objectives to develop instant kadhi premix, and evaluate to the quality and shelf life of the product during storage. Instant kadhi premix consisted of the kadhi powder, seasoning and dried vegetables (optional) packed separately. Kadhi was prepared from besan, turmeric and salt along with curd and buttermilk. It was freeze dried and tray dried; finely ground to form powder and packed in aluminium and polypropylene pouches. Seasoning was prepared from partially dried (microwave) and onion and garlic. The developed product was evaluated at 15 days intervals for its quality and shelf life during the 90 days of storage. Physico-chemical, the moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibres, ash, carbohydrates and energy of kadhi powder prepared from curd and buttermilk ranged (4.70 and 4.93%), (8.79 and 9.57%), (2.90 and 5.10%), (4.90 and 5.87%), (8.46 and 10.15%), (71.10 and 73.94%) and (675-726Kcal). Moisture, water activity, non-enzymatic browning, acidity, free fatty acids and peroxide value significantly increased while rehydration ratio was significantly decrease during three months storage with time. Instant kadhi reconstituted from instant kadhi premix was acceptable during the storage. The freeze dried kadhi prepared from buttermilk was more acceptable than tray dried kadhi prepared from curd. Instant kadhi premix packed in aluminium laminated pouches had better storage quality over the product packed in polypropylene pouches. The instant kadhi premix took 3 minutes and 30 seconds for reconstitution in boiling water. The cost of 25 g kadhi powder prepared from curd using freeze drying method was `128.80 instant premix powder (with seasoning) followed by kadhi prepared from curd using tray drying `31.36, kadhi from buttermilk using freeze drying `108.61and kadhi prepared from buttermilk using tray drying `128.80 providing 270 ml of kadhi sufficient for one serving.ThesisItem Open Access Development of processing technology for instant mango shake powder(CCSHAU, 2018) Priyanka; RekhaThe present investigation ―Development of processing technology for instant mango shake powder‖ was conducted with the objectives to optimize processing technology for development of instant mango shake (IMS).

Banana peel is an abundant and low cost agricultural waste residue. Pectinaceous nature of the banana fruit is one of the biggest prolem during its processing. Keeping this in view, the present work aims at bio-utilization of inexpensive and readily available banana peel as cheap substrate for production of pectinase by A. niger with the following objectives viz. to optimize various cultural conditions to maximize pectinase production and to study the effect of crude pectinase on clarification of banana juice. Pectinase production was studied in solid state fermentation by using banana peel powder sole carbon substrate by A. niger. Maximum pectinase activity 8.12U/ml was observed with 1:3 moisture level, pH 5, 3% inoculum of 108 spore/ml, 120 h of incubation time at 40 ºC. Therefore, these optimized conditions were used for crude enzyme production for banana slurry treatment. Maximum juice yield (59.7%) and minimum turbidity (539 N.T.U.) was achieved with 3% crude pectinase concentration at 60 minutes incubation time at 40 ºC. Banana RTS was prepared from banana slurry with and without (control) enzyme treatment. During storage studies of banana RTS, it was observed that the TSS, total sugar and acidity significantly increased whereas pH, pectin and ascorbic acid were decreased. While, significant differences were observed in TSS, total sugars, pectin, acidity and turbidity among control and pectinase treated banana RTS. No microbial count was detected up to 45 days of storage but 2.6 log10CFU/ml yeast count was observed after 45 days of storage. However, no significant differences were observed among banana RTS prepared with or without enzyme treatment. The overall acceptability of the juice at 15-days of storage was 7.66 and at 30-days of storage it was 7.75 and at 45 days it was decreased up to 6.40. The overall acceptability scores of enzyme treated juices, throughout the storage period were significantly higher than control.ThesisItem Open Access Development of instant lassi(CCSHAU, 2018) Rawat, Kritika; Sehrawat, Anju k.The present investigation entitled “Development of Instant Lassi” was carried out to standardize the preparation of instant lassi and first of its kind to evaluate the shelf life of the spray dried lassi powder. Three variants of lassi (plain, sweet and salted) were prepared with specific probiotic cultures {S. salivarius ssp. thermophillus (ATCC 19258), L. rhamnosus (ATCC 7469) and L. acidophilus (ATCC 4356)} and one sample was procured from local market. Spray dryer conditions were optimized with RSM as inlet temperature (190°C), outlet temperature (70°C) and speed (300 rpm) with 9.2 log10 CFU/ml survival rate of probiotics. Instant probiotic lassi was reconstituted by dissolving 10 g/100 ml water. Titratable acidity and fat of lassi variants before drying was observed (0.33%, 0.37% and 0.41%) and (1.6%, 1.67% and 1.53%) respectively, but after drying it was found to be increased titratable acidity (0.52%, 0.57% and 0.66 %) and fat (2.6%). After reconstitution maximum overall acceptability score was of salted lassi powder (8.57). The powder was stored for 3 months at refrigerated temperature and room temperature in aluminium laminated pouches followed by vaccum packaging. Increase in acidity, pH, browning and significant decrease in organoleptic properties was observed after one month in the powders stored at room temperature while, the powders stored at refrigerated temperature were acceptable with regard to oganoleptic, physicochemical and microbiological properties up to three months. Plain lassi powder stored under refrigerated temperature showed maximum antimicrobial activity against the food pathogens B. subitilis, S. aureus and E. coli. Antibiotic susceptibility test was done against 32 antibiotics for all the lassi variants and observed that they were resistant to amikacin, nalidixic acid, vancomycin, clindamycin, linezolid, clarithromycin and teicoplanin antibiotics. After all physicochemical, organoleptic and microbiological analysis plain lassi powder was recommended as best and can be provided as probiotic supplement and can be manufactured commercially with lower cost, easy availability, easy to store, handle, transport and convenient to use.ThesisItem Open Access Development and evaluation of instant banana shake premix(CCSHAU, 2018) Mohit Kumar; RekhaThe present investigation “Development and Evaluation of Instant Banana Shake Premix” was conducted with the objectives to optimize various processing parameters for development of banana powder and instant banana shake premix (IBSP).

Instant banana shake premix (IBPS) prepared from water blanched ripe banana slices (IBSP1) and pulp (IBSP2) had moisture (4.42 and 4.25%), protein (21.69 and 19.19%), fat (0.41 and 0.49%), crude fibre (0.49 and 0.98%), ash (2.87 and 2.83%), carbohydrates (74.54 and 76.51%), energy (388.62 and 387.25 Kcal) and total phenols (7.73 and 8.10 mg/100 g). Ripe banana slices were cut in 0.5% potassium metabisulfite (KMS) solution and blanched in hot water 0.1% KMS for 2.45 minutes and overripe banana pulp mixed with 0.1% KMS was microwave blanched (1.30 minutes/100 g at 900 W). After blanching the product was either tray dried or microwave assisted tray dried till the moisture content reached below 4%. After drying dried banana pulp and slices were ground to powder and mixed with skim milk powder (SMP) and sugar in 34:40:26 ratio and packed in aluminium laminated and polypropylene pouches under vacuum and stored for three months at room temperature. The most acceptable premix i.e., prepared from ripe banana slices, water blanched, pulped with SMP and microwave assisted dried (IBSP2) had 4.25% moisture, 19.19% protein, 0.49% fat, 0.98% crude fibre, 2.83% ash, 76.51% carbohydrates, 387.25 Kcal energy and 8.10 mg/100 g total phenols. During storage moisture content, water activity, acidity, non enzymatic browning and microbial load were increased while pH and rehydration ratio of the all variants decreased significantly, although it was well within the permissible limits and organolaptically accepted. Cost of IBPS ranged from `21.72-29.41/100 g. Instant banana shake premix prepared from ripe and overripe banana and packed in aluminium laminated pouches under vaccum had three 3 months shelf life at room temperature.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on development of instant rajmash and rice convenient mix(CCSHAU, 2017) Monika; Siddiqui, SaleemThe present investigation ―Studies on development of instant rajmash and rice convenient mix‖ was conducted with the objectives to develop instant rajmash - rice convenient mix and to study its shelf life. The instant rajmash was prepared from var. Chitra and instant rice was prepared from var. Basmati. The instant spice m ix was also prepared. For instantization of rajmash and rice, grains were soaked, cooked, frozen and then to ~ 5% moisture level either by cabinet dryer (40-45oC) or freeze dryer. The instant products were packed in LDPE and metalized polypropylene pouches, stored for three months at room temperature and analysed at monthly intervals for various physical characteristics, nutritional quality and sensory attributes. It was observed that grain hardness, rehydration ratio, volume expansion ration, moisture content and total protein decreased, while total sugars, non enzymatic browning, peroxide value and free fatty acids increased in reconstituted rajmash-rice with increase in storage period of convenient rajmash-rice mix. However, the reconstituted rajmash-rice prepared from stored convenient rajmash-rice mix did not show any detectable microbial growth. The overall acceptability scores of reconstituted rajmash-rice mix were lower for cabinet dried than freeze dried reconstituted rajmash-rice mix. The freeze dried convenient mix packed in metalized polypropylene was better than polypropylene bags. The convenient mix prepared by freeze drying can be reconstituted to sumptuous rice-rajmash by soaking in hot water for 10 min, while for cabinet dried convenient mix it took 15 minutes. However, the acceptability of reconstituted rajmash-rice was highly acceptable even when prepared from three months stored rice-rajmash convenient mix. The cost of production was recorded approximately Rs 29 for per 250 g pack of cabinet dried instant rajmash-rice mix and approximately Rs 38 for per 250 g pack of freeze dried instant rajmash-rice mix.ThesisItem Open Access Development and evaluation of cheese and toffee from aonla-papaya blends(CCSHAU, 2017) Sumit Kumar; Gehlot, RakeshThe present investigation entitled “Development and Evaluation of Cheese and Toffee from Aonla-Papaya Blends” was carried out to standardize aonla-papaya blends for preparation of cheese and toffee, and to evaluate storage quality of blended products.
