ABSTRACT
"umumu" drink was produced from sprouted guinea
corn and sprouted maize with sweet potato and ginger as additives. The main
objective was to evaluate the nutritional quality of the produced drink
Proximate, mineral and sensory analysis were carried out on the c samples after
which the results obtained were subjected to statistical analysis. The final
results showed that the protein content of "umumu" drink with guinea
corn and maize samples was 0.58% and 0.93% respectively. Carbohydrate content
of the samples (guinea corn and maize) was 12.13% and 11.14% respectively. Fat
content range of the samples (guinea corn and maize) was 0.22% and 0.68%, ash
content of the samples was 0.94% and 1.05% respectively while the moisture
content was 86.13% and 86.20% respectively. The mineral analysis showed that
the drink samples (guinea corn and maize) had sodium of 6.65mg/i 00g and
5.50mg/i 00g, phosphorus 9.43mg/i 00g and 9.36mg/i 00g, magnesium 12.32mg/i 00g
and 11.60mg/i 00g, potassium 119.50mg/i 00g, and 122.10mg/i 00g and calcium
18.54mg/i 00g and 18. 16mg/i 00g. The sensory evaluation of the drink samples
revealed that the maize sample had the highest 6.60 while the guinea corn
sample had the least 6.50 mean score in terms of taste. Guinea corn sample had
the highest mean score in terms offlavor, mouth feel and colour with the mean
scores of 6.90, 6.60 and 7. 70 respectively while the maize sample had the
least mean score of 6.30, 5.35 and 5.95 respectively. All the samples were
generally accepted.
