This study developed a new evaluation system for plant-based instant granules, assessing flavor and dissolvability. The findings reveal significant quality differences among commercial products, highlighting the need for standardized assessment.
Area of Science:
- Food Science and Technology
- Pharmacognosy
- Analytical Chemistry
Background:
- Flavor and water dissolvability are key quality indicators for plant-derived instant granules.
- Current research lacks comprehensive studies integrating these factors and comparative analyses of commercial products.
Purpose of the Study:
- To establish a robust, objective evaluation system for plant extract instant granules.
- To comprehensively assess the quality of commercial plant-based instant granules using integrated metrics.
Main Methods:
- Developed a dynamic-static joint evaluation system incorporating multiple indicators.
- Utilized the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for indicator weighting.
- Employed Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and correlation matrix for secondary indicator integration.
Main Results:
- Evaluated 90 batches across four categories of plant extract instant granules.
- Comprehensive scores ranged from 0.5406 to 0.9503, indicating significant quality variations.
- Identified distinct quality disparities among different granule varieties.
Conclusions:
- The developed multi-index framework provides an objective and scientific method for granule quality assessment.
- This approach minimizes subjective bias compared to traditional methods.
- The findings support quality supervision, R&D, and market promotion of plant-based instant granules.
