Abstract:
Objective To optimize the fresh-cutting process of Corydalis Rhizoma by response surface methodology, and obtain the best technology for fresh-cut processing of Corydalis Rhizoma. Methods The slice thickness, the hot air drying temperature and the loading amount were taken as the investigation factors. The total alkaloid content, the extract content and the drying efficiency were taken as the indicators. The weight coefficient of each index was obtained by principal component analysis method, and the comprehensive score was calculated. Single factor analysis was performed on the investigation factors to obtain the initial optimization range, and the response surface optimization method was used to optimize the final process optimization parameters. Results The best production conditions for fresh-cut processing were determined as slice thickness of 4 mm, dry load of 7 kg/m2, drying temperature of 85 ℃, total drying time of (279.0 ± 1.1) min, and comprehensive score of (0.860 6 ± 0.010 0). At this time, the total alkaloid content of Corydalis Rhizoma was (6.274 ± 0.030) mg/g, the content of the leachate was (17.86 ± 0.22)%, and the drying efficiency was (25.09 ± 0.00) g/(m2∙min). Conclusion The established drying process can better preserve the content of alkaloids and extracts in Corydalis Rhizoma, maintain high drying efficiency, ensure high quality and reduce energy consumption of enterprises, and provide a reliable theoretical basis for the production and processing of Corydalis Rhizoma pieces.
