Kitisart Kraboun — 2023-12-27

This research aimed to study the different ratios of dried Hom Thong banana peel to angkak powder, i.e. 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, and 25:75 on the DPPH free radical scavenging ability, total phenolic content, color, moisture content, a_w, and sensory attributes of the herbal infusion produced from dried Hom Thong banana peel mixed with angkak. The results showed that the optimal ratio of dried Hom Thong banana peel to angkak powder was 50:50 for the herbal infusion preparation. It was due to that the amount of total phenolics of all formulations was not significantly different (p>0.05) but the DPPH free radical scavenging abilities of the formulations between 50:50 and 25:75 were not significantly different (p>0.05). The higher substitution of dried Hom Thong banana peel with angkak led to decrease in the liking scores of color, odor, taste, and overall liking attributes of the herbal infusion; however, the scores of all attributes of the herbal infusion obtained from the formula of 50:50 were higher than those of 25:75.
