Optimization of osmotic dehydration of chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) slices using Response Surface Methodology

Abstract: Osmotic dehydration of chestnut slices in sucrose was optimized for the first time by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Experiments were planned according to a three-factor central composite design (α=1.68), studying the influence of sucrose concentration, temperature and time, on the following parameters: volume ratio, water activity, color variation, weight reduction, solids gain, water loss and normalized moisture content, as well as total moisture, ash and fat contents. The experimental data was adequate… Show more

“…The effect of T on WR is because its increments favor the exit of water from the fruit (Bekele & Ramaswamy, 2010). Some researchers have observed the same influence of T over WR, involving OD studies in pineapple (Sridevi & Genitha, 2012) and chestnut slices (Delgado et al, 2018). The WR, which indirectly measures the water reduction in the osmotic dehydrated product, is an important variable in the transportation and storage of great product volumes (Zapata et al, 2016).…”

“…According to Torreggiani (1993), in the OD process, the WL must be favored with a minimum SG. Nevertheless, SG should be enough for preservation but not so high to induce sensory and nutritional changes in the product (Delgado et al, 2018).…”

“…The SG increased or decreased with brine time (Figure 2b,c). Delgado et al [30] reported that increasing the osmotic dehydration time increases the mass transfer due to the cell membrane swelling and plasticizing effect, resulting in an increase in SG. The WL increased with the brine concentration (Figure 3a,b) and brine temperature (Figure 3a,c).…”

“…This phenomenon could be explained by the lower initial moisture content which was achieved when the concentration increased from 5 to 10%. The moisture in the sample was removed out through osmotic dehydration process, and this created better concentration gradient between the sample and solvent during extraction which enhances the oil yield (Delgado et al 2018). However, when increasing the concentration to 15%, high number of osmotic solute particle could attach to the surface of sample, and this could reduce the diffusion area of oil into solvent, thus causing lower oil yield of 83.21% at equilibrium (Delgado et al 2018).…”

The kinetic data in Table 1 also shows that oil yield at equilibrium for washing step decreased to 71.69% when the concentration increased from 10 to 15%.…”
