Title: Effect of synthetic antioxidants on storage stability of Khoa – a semi-solid concentrated milk product
Abstract: Effect of synthetic antioxidants on storage stability of freshly prepared khoa was evaluated. Free fatty acids (FFA), peroxide value (POV) and iodine values (IV) were used to assess the development of rancidity during 30 days of storage of khoa at 25 and 45 °C. Butylated hydroxy anisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxy toluene (BHT) were added to freshly prepared khoa to extend the storage life. After 30 days of storage at 45 °C, freshly prepared khoa containing 200 ppm of BHA and BHT showed lower values of FFA (0.066%, 0.058%) and POVs (23.0, 21.0 meq/kg) than the control samples (FFA 0.320%, POV 127 meq/kg). Iodine values of khoa sample containing 200 ppm of BHA and BHT were 67 and 69 after 30 days storage at 45 °C. However, iodine value of a khoa sample without antioxidant (control) after 30 days of storage at 45 °C was 30. Similarly, khoa samples treated with 100 ppm of BHA, along with 100 ppm of BHT, showed FFA value (19.0%), POV (0.049 meq/kg) and iodine value (72) after storage for 30 days at 45 °C. These results illustrate that synthetic antioxidants inhibited the development of rancidity during storage of khoa. Therefore, storage life of khoa can easily be extended for 30 days by the addition of BHA and BHT.
