Production And Quality Evaluation Of Yoghurt From Soymilk, Banana And Watermelon Blends:- Enwereji, Otuomasirichi U
ABSTRACT
The objective of this work were to produce and
the quality evaluation of yoghurt from soymilk, banana and watermelon blends.
Soymilk yoghurt (l00SMY) were blended with both banana and watermelon,(SBW),
banana only (SB) and watermelon (SW). Cow milk yoghurt (l00CMY) were used as the
control. A total of five (S) samples were analysed for proximate, mineral,
vitamin and sensory evaluation.th result obtained were statistically analysed
using SPSS and the means separated. The results obtained showed notable effects
on the Proximate evaluation, Moisture content increased (82.05-89.60%), Fat
content decreased (3.48-3.05), Crude Fibre increased (0.27-0.29%), Protein
decreased (3.33-2.54%), Ash content increased (0.66-0.76%) while carbohydrate
decreased (10.21- 3.88) For Mineral content, Phosphorous Potassium, Magnesium
and Zinc content was improved while Iron and Calcium decreased with blending
both banana and watermelon. Vitamin content generally increased with sample SBW
showing the highest levels in all the vitamin analysed. Sensory scores was also
improved also with sample SB being the best in terms of general acceptability
(6.95) followed by sample SW (6.53) and SBW (6.42) there were no significant
difference (P>0.05) among sample SW and SBW. The sample having only soymilk
yoghurt (l00SMY) showed least acceptability
