Micro Flora Of Ogiri Made From Sesame Seed, Melon Seed And Castor Bean Seeds Stored With Different Packaging Materials:- Okwuonu, Precious U.
ABSTRACTS
The effect of packaging material on the
proximate, physiochemical, microbial and sensory properties of ogiri made from
melon seed (Citrulus vulgaris) castor oil seed and sesame seeds (sesame
indicum) respectively using the traditional fermenting method. The seeds were
dehulled, boiled and wrapped with banana leaf and aluminum foil before
fermented. The six ogiri condiments varied significantly on the proximate
analysis, physiochemical and microbial loads, but showed no significant difference
on the sensory properties. The pH of the samples showed a decrease in the ogiri
wrapped with foil with 7.40-7.03, 7.12 — 6.87, 7.35-7.11 on the melon seed
castor oil seed and sesame seeds respectively. There was significant
differences (P<0.05) on the moisture, crude protein, crude fibre, fat, ash
and carbohydrate composition of the condiments. The Ogiri wrapped with foil
showed an increase after fermenting in moisture, fibre and ash with
21.85-24.13%, 10.06 - 13.62% and 3.65-3.98% on the ogiri, made from melon seed
and 10.04 - 17.53%, 21.84-24.15% and 2.34-2.56% on the ogiri made from castor
oil seed, while 16.75-19.07%, 8.11-11.03% and 3.14-3.40% with ogiri from sesame
seeds respectively, Bacillus species was the most predominant microorganism in
the fermented seeds and the sensory evaluation showed no significant difference
on the packaging materials of the ogiri condiment. It is therefore recommended
that information concerning packaging with aluminum foil should be made through
public awareness campaign.
