Abstract

Six kinds of spirulina added dressing $(0\~1.09\%)$ were prepared and their rheological, physical and sensory characteristics were evaluated The hardness and adhesiveness of spirulina-added salad dressing were increased with the added amounts of spirulina. Viscosity of spirulina-added salad dressing was not significantly different up to $0.28\%$ whereas that of dressing added more than $0.55\%$ spirulina significantly increased, compared with that without spirulina. Emulsion stability of all of spirulina-added salad dressings was $40\%$ Antioxidant activities of spirulina-added salad dressing increased with spirulina increased: $IC_{50}$ values of DPPH radical scavenging activity and lipid peroxidation inhibition activity of $0.28\%$ added-dressing were 104.98 mg/mL and $6.71{\mu}g/mL$ of TBARS, respectively, which were higher than those of mayonnaise. The fat globule size of $0.28\%$ spirulina-added salad dressing was distributed within $0.5\~4.0{\mu}m$, of which $85.6\%$ of total fat globules were consisted of the size of less than $1.5\{\mu}m$. Total microbial number of salad dressing was 6.2log(CFU/mL), but E coli was not detected Sensory preference test of spirulina-added salad dressing showed that scores of appearance, flavor, viscosity and over-all preference for $0.28\%$ added-dressing were the highest with 7.83, 7.50, 5.33 and 7.97, respectively. Based on these results, spirulina-added salad dressing might have heath promoting effect showing antioxidant activity, and the most appropriate concentration of spirulina for salad dressing was $0.28\%$.
