DYNAMIC EVALUATION OF THE DEHYDRATION RESPONSE CURVES OF FOODS CHARACTERIZED BY A POULTICE-UP PROCESS USING A FISH-PASTE SAUSAGE. I. DETERMINATION OF THE MECHANISMS FOR MOISTURE TRANSFER

説明
In order to discern the mechanism for the transfer of moisture in foods as they are drying, the pore structure of food and the distribution of moisture in food matrices were studied in detail by using a fish-paste sausage that was prepared with various contents ofmo isture (W 0). A uniform distribution ofmois ture was achieved with a poultice-up process. The void fractions (Vf ) that occurred as a result ofchanges in the pore structure of the food were evaluated from a graphical analysis of SEM photographs on a cross-sectional observation ofthe sausage. The Vf -values obtained changed drastically depending on the W0 and were classified into two regions: I (W 0 > 100%-d.b.), which gave Vf = 0.10 ± 0.08, and II (W 0 < 100%-d.b.), which gave Vf = 0.24 ± 0.05 at a drying temperature of 35°C. For the analysis ofmois ture state, the temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) profiles and the correlation time ofwater protons evaluated from nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) were effectively used. The results produced...
