Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 14
Abstract
Supplementation of noodles with Spirulina platensis powder was done at 2, 4, 6 and 8% levels to improve its nutritional quality. Developed enriched noodles were found organoleptically acceptable by the panelists up to 6% level. With regard to nutritional quality, among the fortified noodles, 6% Spirulina supplemented noodles yielded higher contents of protein (15.60%), fat (9.82%), crude fibre (3.29%), ash (1.87%), carbohydrate (69.42%) and energy (428.46 kcal/100g). Fatty acid profile of 6% Spirulina enriched noodles were found superior than the other supplemented noodles. These were as palmitic, oleic, α-linolenic and γ-linolenic acid 42.00, 17.44, 1.05 and 2.10% of total fatty acids, respectively. Total and available minerals were also found higher in 6% Spirulina supplemented noodles i.e82.10, 378.49, 139.40, 6.69 and 2.32 mg/100g of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron and zinc, respectively, whereas, in vitro availability of iron, calcium and zinc were found as 51.33, 54.00 and 59.79%, respectively.
