Increasing pod storage, fermentation and drying led to variable reductions in total polyphenols, O-diphenols and anthocyanins content of the beans. The rates of reduction were however more pronounced during fermentation than pod storage and drying. Storage of cocoa pods between 3-7 days with 6 and 7 days of fermentation and drying respectively retained 85%-90% of the total polyphenol and O-diphenols of the cocoa beans. Similarly, anthocyanin content of beans from the 10 days of pod storage decreased by 70% in the sixth day of fermentation. Pod storage decreased the anthocyanin content at all periods of fermentation. These suggest that the post-harvest treatments of pod storage … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Wiley-Blackwell Publishers Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2013 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&cstart=100&pagesize=100&citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:ThYxFsVAhEkC Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Improvement in flavour requires a combination of treatments. This study employed three treatments (thermal, chemical and microbial) to develop full fat peanut-soy milk yoghurt (FPSY) and partially defatted peanut-soy milk yoghurt (DPSY). Proximate analysis and consumer studies were carried out on the 10 FPSY and 10 DPSY formulations developed using a three component constraint mixture design. Balanced Incomplete Block Design (BIBD) was used to assign samples to consumers and the optimized formulations were validated. Samples of the FPSY were high in crude protein and fat whereas the DPSY formulations were high in carbohydrate and total solids.

Title A name given to the resource Cocoa Processing and Modern Chocolate Manufacturing Techniques. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Alistair Paterson, Mark Fowler, Angela Ryan Description An account of the resource Chocolate characters not only originate in flavor precursors present in cocoa beans, but are generated during post-harvest treatments and transformed into desirable odor notes in the manufacturing processes. Complex biochemical modifications of bean constituents are further altered by thermal reactions in roasting and conching and in alkalization. However, the extent to which the inherent bean constituents from the cocoa genotype, environmental factors, post-harvest treatment, and processing technologies influence chocolate flavor formation and relationships with final flavor quality, has not been clear. With increasing speciality niche products in chocolate confectionery, greater understanding of factors contributing to the variations in flavor character would have significant commercial implications.

Title A name given to the resource Physico-functional characteristics of Seven Different Yams (Dioscorea species) in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Delali Polycarp, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Agnes K Anane-Asamoah, Baako Haruna Description An account of the resource This study was designed to characterize the most cultivated and consumed yam (Dioscorea) cultivars within the Ghanaian yam germplasm based on their physico-functional properties in order to assess their potential alternative food and industrial processing applications. Matured yam varieties grown and harvested under the same climatic and edaphic factors were obtained from the Roots and Tuber Conservatory Division of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research-Plant Genetic Resources Research Institute, Bunso Ghana. Colour of bulk flour for each yam sample was measured using the Hunter Lab Colour Difference Meter. Functional properties such as water absorption capacity, swelling power and solubility index were determined using standard analytical procedures. Significant differences (p< 0.05) existed among the yam varieties for their colour and functional properties. Flours of D. bulbifera and D. dumetorum had an attractive yellow colour while flour of D. esculenta recorded the highest whiteness (L= 84.09). D. esculenta had the highest swelling power (9.4%) and solubility index of 27.6%. No significant difference was observed in water absorption at 27 C and 70 C for all varieties except D. dumetorum. D. dumetorum flour had relatively high water absorption capacity of 295.9% in water at 27 C and 189.4% in water at 70 C. The findings from this research will be relevant to yam producers and processors in programmes aimed at developing new food/industrial processing applications using Ghanaian yams.

Title A name given to the resource The impact of pod storage on the formation of different alkylpyrazines from Ghanaian cocoa roasted at four roasting temperatures Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ann De Winne, Michael Hinneh, Julie Haeck, Davy Van de Walle, Jim Van Durme, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Koen Dewettinck, Luc De Cooman Description An account of the resource The typical flavour characteristics of cocoa are related to the cocoa bean genotype and the growing environmental conditions. However, the flavour does not exist in freshly harvested beans. Flavour is generated by a series of procedures that begins with occasional pod storage (PS) after harvesting, followed by fermentation of the beans, and roasting. PS implies storing harvested cocoa pods for a period of time before opening. The effect of PS is believed to be beneficial for the subsequent development of cocoa flavour in the cocoa beans [1]. During roasting, several volatile heterocyclic compounds are formed, among them alkylpyrazines. These newly formed compounds are considered to be key odour components. Among alkylpyrazines, tetramethylpyrazine and trimethylpyrazine, are the most abundant ones. Other alkylpyrazines with different substituents also contribute to the aroma profile. Hence, monitoring pyrazines can be helpful in optimizing roasting conditions of cocoa beans for attaining the desired aroma of the cocoa liquors. In several studies, cocoa volatiles have been measured using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS), frequently using headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) to concentrate the volatiles. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of PS (0, 3, 7 days PS) and roasting temperature (100 C, 120 C, 140 C and 160 C) on the formation of alkylpyrazines in Ghanaian cocoa liquors. HS-SPME extraction of the alkylpyrazines was carried out with a DVB/CAR/PDMS fibre. The identified compounds were measured semiquantitatively and the results were statistically processed by multivariate … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Verlag der Technischen Universität Graz Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2018 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&cstart=100&pagesize=100&citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:edV_OwlUe4UC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/2a9dff105c7d6a45f7dbae6dc230b1d1.pdf 06c13df79093c4aa7dac669de6fef4e9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS AND SMALLHOLDER GUIDELINES FOR IMPROVED FISH SMOKING SYSTEMS Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Bomfeh Kennedy, Jacxsens Liesbeth, Bruno De Meulenaer, Wisdom Kofi Amoa-Awua, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa Description An account of the resource In developing countries, traditionally smoked fish are highly contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). This is mainly due to the use of wood-fueled traditional kilns for processing the commodity. An improved kiln, the FAO-Thiaroye Technique (FTT), has been introduced to address the concern and was assessed in Ghana for its efficacy. It was found that the FTT drastically lessens PAH contamination in smoked fish and also affords public health protection against risks associated with that hazard. The findings call for policy actions to underpin efforts for improving the safety and market access of smoked fish in Ghana and other low- and middle-income countries.

Title A name given to the resource Yield Gap Analysis in Oil Palm Production Systems in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa Description An account of the resource Palm oil is the world’s most important edible oil crop, and in the Ghanaian economy, oil palm (Eleais guineensis) is the next most important perennial crop after cocoa. Since the early 2000s, the area under oil palm in Ghana expanded but average fruit bunch (FB) yields remained low at ~7 t ha-1 yr-1 in 2014, resulting in large yield gaps. Despite the pressing need to increase palm oil production and improve yields, knowledge of the underlying causes of poor yields in Ghana is lacking. The objective of this thesis was to analyse the factors that currently limit oil palm production on plantations and smallholder farms in Ghana and to assess opportunities to increase yields with improved agronomic practices. Using land suitability evaluation methods and yield gap analysis, a framework for yield intensification with ‘Best Management Practices’ (BMP) on existing mature oil palm plantings was developed.
