Paddy was conditioned using saturated salt solutions at relative humidities from 80 to 95 % and temperatures 35, 45, 55, 60, and 65?C. The yellowing rate was found to follow the zero order kinetics. The yellowing constant values (k) increased exponentially with temperature while increased linearly with water activity. The magnitude of activation energy varied from 130-145 kJ/mol. A predictive equation for determining yellowing rate was ln k = ? - ?aw - ?/T + (?aw)/T where aw is water activity (valid from 0.80 to 0.95), T is absolute temperature (valid from 308 to 338 K) and ?, ?, ? and ? are constants. The results of variance analysis showed that temperature, water activity and their interaction significantly influenced the yellowing rate of paddy. |
