This study aimed to produce fermented black glutinous rice (FBGR) powder using the foam-mat freeze-drying method and evaluate its physicochemical, microstructural, and bioactive characteristics. The results showed that the concentration of maltodextrin (MD) had a significant effect on powder recovery and bulk density, with the lowest values observed at 20% MD. Increasing MD concentration led to higher solubility, lightness (L*), and yellowness (b*) in the color properties of the powders. The retention of bioactive compounds increased with higher MD content. The powder produced with 40% MD had the best physical and technological properties.
The aim of this study was to obtain fermented black glutinous rice (FBGR) powder using the foam-mat freeze-drying method and to evaluate the physicochemical, microstructural, and bioactive characteristics of FBGR powder. To obtain FBGR foams, maltodextrin (MD; 0%-40% w/w) and whey protein isolate (WPI; 7.5% w/w) were used. The results showed that MD concentration had a significant effect (p <= .05) on powder recovery and bulk density which increased from 68.9% to 80.5% and 0.46% to 0.63 g/ml, respectively. The lowest moisture content (2.17%) and water activity (0.48) were found in powders produced with 20% MD. The solubility of FBGR powders ranged from 74% to 75% and increasing MD concentration gave higher lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) readings in color properties of powders. Although the addition of the carrier agent caused reductions in total phenolic content and anthocyanins, the retention of these bioactive compounds rose with increasing MD content from 67% to 76% and 78% to 84%, respectively. FBGR produced with 40% MD had the most superior physical and technological properties, and foam-mat freeze-drying is a promising technology for retaining the bioactive compounds in FBGR.
