Item Proximate and oragnoleptic analysis of carrot-fortified and vanilla flavoured cakes(2023) Apata, O. C.; Fashipe, J. T.; Meludu, N. T.This study investigated the proximate and organoleptic properties of carrot-fortified and vanilla flavoured cake. Specifically, it determined: proximate composition of carrot-fortified and vanilla flavoured cake: and organoleptic properties of carrot-fortified and vanilla flavoured cake. Samples of the products were prepared using standard methods. The product was divided into two parts, one part was subjected to proximate analysis while the other part was subjected to sensor}' evaluation. Proximate analysis of carrot- fortified and vanilla flavoured cake was carried out using standard methods. Twenty panellists were involved in the sensory evaluation of the products. A 7-point hedonic scale was used to collect data on the organoleptic properties of the samples. Dahl for sensory evaluation were analysed using percentages (%). Result of proximate analysis showed that carrot-fortified cake had the highest content of protein (15.6%). Moisture Content (15.6%)), ash (2.4%). crude fibre (I.2%), Tannins (55mg/100g), Saponins (35mg/100g) 35, Ascorbic Acid (14.5mg/100g), Carotenoids (350µg/100g), Thiamine (0.21mg/100)g), Riboflavin (0.17mg/100g), Niacin (2.65mg/100g) and lowest content of fat (25.0%), carbohydrate (42.2%) when compared to vanilla-flavoured cake. Also, the organoleptic result showed that carrot-fortified cake was ranked higher and accepted by the panellists when compared to vanilla flavoured cake based on the 7-point hedonic scale rating. Rased on these findings it was recommended that: further research could be carried out on the shelf life of carrot cake and mode of preservation with the use of natural preservatives such as vinegar and physiochemical analysis of the cakes during different stages of storage.Item Proximate and organoleptic analysis of cassava-based snack (combo bits) and chin-chin(Home Economics Research Association of Nigeria, 2023-09) Apata, O. C.; Joseph, R. O.This study investigated the proximate and organoleptic properties of combo bits and chin-chin. Specifically, it determined: proximate composition of combo bits and chin-chin, organoleptic properties of combo bits and chin-chin. Samples of combo bits and chin-chin were prepared using standard methods. One part of each product was subjected to proximate analysis while the other part was subjected to sensory evaluation. Proximate analysis of combo bits and chin-chin were carried out using standard methods. Twenty panelists were involved in sensory evaluation of both products. A 9-point hedonic scale was used to collect data on the sensory properties of combo bits and chin-chin. Data for sensory evaluation were analyzed using percentages (%). Findings indicate variations in the proximate analysis values (%) of combo bits and chin-chin. Also, combo bits was ranked higher when compared to chin-chin based on the 9-point hedonic scale rating for overall acceptability. Furthermore, none of the snacks was rated as being disliked (0%). There were however, variations in their ratings for “being liked”, ranging from, for instance, “liked moderately” in colour for combo bits (38.6%), “liked slightly” in colour for combo bits (20.5%), “liked very much” in colour for combo bits (30.1%); for chin-chin, “liked moderately” in colour for chin-chin (38.6%), “liked slightly” in colour for chin-chin (20.5%), “liked very much” in colour for chin-chin (19.3%). Based on findings two recommendations were made.Item Assessment of chemical and organoleptic properties of fortified indigenous maize-based snack(2019) Apata, O. C.; Oyebade, O. J.; Ajayi, O. O.; Ajayi, O. O.; Adebayo, I. N.; Meludu, N. T.; Ayodele, I. A.Backgronnd: Aadun is an indigenous maize-bascd snack high in energy, phosphorus and magnesium but low in protein. it is often sold with minimal packaging under conditions which may lead to its rapid deterioration. Protein fortification and improved packaging could enhance its balance of nutrients and increase acceptability. Objective: The study evaluated the chemical composition and organoleptic qualities of fortified, aadun. Methodology: Four different samples of aadun were prepared. T0 served as the control (unfortified aadun) while the three others (T i, T2 and T3 were fortified with groundnut, cray fish and soybeans, respectively. The four samples were subjected to proximate and mineral analysis. Different packaging materials such as foil paper, polyethylene and plastic plate covered with kiln film were used to present the samples to 50 panellists for organoleptic assessment. Results were subjected to descriptive statistics and ANOV A using SPSS version 20 Results- fortified samples were found to be significantly different in their chemical composition and sensory attributes from the control sample. The fortified aadun samples had higher protein, crude fibre, ether extract, iron magnesium, iodine, sodium, potassium and phosphorus due the control. The T0, was rated highest for the colour and the T1 for taste, texture, aroma and overall acceptability. The most preferred packaging material for the samples was plastic plate covered with kiln film while polyethylene was least preffered. Conclusion: Fortifying aadun with different ingredients especially groundnut and improving the materials used in packaging will improve its consumer acceptability.Item Evaluation of patties prepared from combination of beef and antelope meat(Animal Science Association of Nigeria, 2016-09) Apata, E. S.; Eniolorunda, O. O.; Ayantuga, D. T.; Apata, O. C.; Okubanjo, A. O.This study was carried out in the Meat Science laboratory of the Department of Animal Production, Olabisi Onabanjo University, Yewa Campus, Ayetoro, Ogun State to evaluate patties prepared from beef and antelope meat. Fresh beef and antelope meat of 3kg each were purchased, chilled and allowed to equilibrate to room temperature 27˚C which were ground. Approximately 2.3 kg of each meat type was apportioned into five parts of 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 % after mixing the two meat types into 0, 115, 230,345 and 460g of antelope meat. The meat patties samples were cooked using broiling method and cooled at room temperature. Physico- chemical characteristics and organoleptic attributes of the meat product Were determined after cooking. The results revealed that the cooking loss (32.43%) was higher (p< 0,05) at T4 followed by T5 (31.48%) while the patties yield (71.97%) was in TO followed by patties in T2 (70.45%) and T3 (70.35%) respectively. Water holding capacity (WHC) was higher in T2 and T3 (67.00%) and (66.20%) followed by TO with 62.00%, hence lower shear force values of 0.58N, 0.62N and 0.70N. Moisture content (50.90%) was higher (p< 0.05) T1 and T2 (59.15%), protein was higher (p< 0.05) in 75, while fat was least (p<0.05) in T4 (8.25 %) and T5 (8.20%) in cooked patties. Patties in Tl, T2 and T3 with 6.50, 6.80 and 6.62 were accepted mostly as the had higher colour values of 7.25, 6.03 and 6.21. It was observed that inclusion of antelope meat in the patties between 25% and 50% sufficed to provide the nutrients and flavour that consumers needed in meat patties prepared from beef and antelope meat combination in this study. Therefore, antelope meat could be included in meat patties not beyond 50% so that consumers could relish the meat product.Item Evaluation of suya (tsire) – an intermediate moisture meat product in Ogun State, Nigeria(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2013) Apata, E. S.; Kuku, I. A.; Apata, O. C.; Adeyemi, K. O.A study was conducted to evaluate suya (tsire) an intermediate moisture meat product in Ogun State. Sixty suya sticks were used. Twelve suya sticks were prepared in the laboratory while 12 suya sticks were collected from each zone of the state namely: Yewa, Egba, Remo and Ijebu. They were analyzed for physical, chemical, microbiological and organoleptic characteristics. The results showed that there were significant (P < 0.05) differences in physical properties of suya samples analyzed with suya from Yewa zone having the highest (P < 0.05) water holding capacity and suya prepared in the laboratory and those from Egba zone had the highest (P < 0.05) shear force, while the pH was least (P < 0.05) in suya prepared from laboratory. Moisture content was least (P < 0.05) in suya samples prepared in the laboratory and from Egba zone, while ash content was higher (P < 0.05) in suya from Yewa, Remo and Ijebu Zones. Aerobic bacteria and coliform counts were least (P < 0.05) in suya prepared in the laboratory and from Egba Zone, while lactic acid bacteria were higher (P < 0.05) in suya prepared in the laboratory and from Egba Zone. The results revealed that suya samples prepared in the laboratory were accepted more (P < 0.05) followed by those from Egba and Remo Zones. However, microbial loads observed on Suya (tsire) samples in this study were not as high as those reported by previous workers. Nonetheless, efforts should be made to educate meat and meat products (Suya) processors in Ogun State on the importance of hygiene and proper packaging and preservation to avoid contamination and spoilage of meat products during processing and sale.Item Evaluation of suya (tsire) – an intermediate moisture meat product in Ogun State, Nigeria(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2013) Apata, E.
