Abstract
|
|
|
The effects of roasting temperature and time on the antioxidant activities of Cassia tora L. were investigated. In comparison with raw seeds (7.15 mg TAE/g), roasted seeds contained a significantly higher total polyphenol content (p<0.05). However, seeds roasted at a higher temperature (250oC) for 10 min showed a significantly lower total polyphenol content (2.30 mg TAE/g; p<0.05). The electron donating abilities of Cassia tora L. seeds increased with an increase in roasting time; further, seeds roasted for 5 min at lower temperatures showed higher electron donating abilities (80.61% at 175oC; 80.75% at 200oC) than did seeds roasted for 5 min at higher temperatures (76.26% at 225oC; 77.35% at 250oC). Seeds roasted at lower temperatures showed adequate L values, regardless of roasting time; by contrast, seeds roasted for 10 min at higher temperatures, showed markedly lower L values. Our results indicate that roasting temperature and time must be controlled to produce high-quality Cassia tora L. products.
