Study on the Effect of Saccharose Replacement by Mixture of Maltodextrin-Stevioside on Microstructre Properties of Ghotab
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
Regarding diabetes and obesity exhibits the research gaps in the field of sugar free products. The target of this study was to investigate microstructure properties of Ghotab in which that saccharose was replaced by maltodextrin-stevioside mixture in 4 levels including 25 % ,50% , 75% and 100% by L.M. Microscope using a completely random plan by image pro software and 120 zoom . The results revealed that this replacement caused to reduction of LSD average and the diameter of hole. However a significantly increasing in the surface area, maximum and minimum hole and their roundness observed, there was a significantly decreasing in the diameter of holes and porosity of samples.
