Abstract
This study optimizes a microgreens-based dairy (lassi) beverage using response surface methodology to enhance antioxidant composition, sensory attributes, and shelf stability. The ideal formulation (9.189 % microgreen juice, 60 % dahi, and 15.311 % water) achieved a desirability score of 0.781, significantly improving bioactive compounds. The optimized lassi contained phenolics (44.14 mg GAE/100 g), flavonoids (22.62 mg QUE/100 g), anthocyanins (37.91 μmol/100 g), and ascorbic acid (59.32 mg/100 g), with an acceptability rating of 8.29. Kinetic modeling assessed bioactive stability under varying storage conditions, with the highest retention at 5 °C after 15-days. Temperature-dependent degradation rates were analyzed using the Arrhenius, Eyring, and Ball models, while shelf-life prediction was based on a zero-order reaction model combined with the Arrhenius equation. The estimated shelf life at 5 °C based on microbial load was 9.33 days (t1/2), with production cost, aligning with market trends. These findings highlight commercial potential of radish sango microgreens in developing a nutritious, antioxidant-rich lassi beverage.
期刊介绍:
Food Chemistry: X, one of three Open Access companion journals to Food Chemistry, follows the same aims, scope, and peer-review process. It focuses on papers advancing food and biochemistry or analytical methods, prioritizing research novelty. Manuscript evaluation considers novelty, scientific rigor, field advancement, and reader interest. Excluded are studies on food molecular sciences or disease cure/prevention. Topics include food component chemistry, bioactives, processing effects, additives, contaminants, and analytical methods. The journal welcome Analytical Papers addressing food microbiology, sensory aspects, and more, emphasizing new methods with robust validation and applicability to diverse foods or regions.
