Abstract

The aim of this present study was to evaluate the effects of gamma-irradiation on the microbial and physicochemical characteristics of the rice flour porridge. The viscosity of the gamma-irradiated rice flour porridge was decreased as compared to that of the control. The soluble solid and reducing sugar content of the rice flour porridge was increased according to the gamma irradiation dose, while the blue value was decreased. From the results of a DSC curve, it was suggested that gamma irradiation delayed the retrogradation of the cooked rice flour porridge. The sensory score for overall acceptance and the chewing times for swallowing of the porridge, decreased with gamma irradiation doses above 3 kGy. Based on these results gamma irradiation may significantly enhance the swallowability of rice porridge, especially for elderly or infant subjects who have decreased mastication. However, more research is needed to improve the sensory qualities for the industrial application.
