ABSTRACT

Objective To optimize the processing technology of stir-frying with vinegar of Curcuma Longa Radix (CLR) by orthogonal design and Box-Behnken design-respanse surface method (BBD-RSM) based on entropy method. Methods As comprehensive evaluation indexes, the contents of curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin in CLR processed by traditional method were determined by HPLC. The orthogonal test was adapted to examine the influence of the amount of vinegar, the moistening time, parching time, and parching temperature on processing technology of stir-frying with vinegar. Based on the results above, BBD-RSM was adopted to optimize the processing technology further using the moistening time, parching time and parching temperature as factors. Results The optimum processing technology of the orthogonal test was covered the amount of vinegar of 15%, moistening time of 10 min, parching temperature of 130 ℃, and parching time of 10 min. The optimum processing technology by BBD-RSM was covered moistening time of 12 min, parching temperature of 150 ℃, and parching time of 8 min. The verification esting indicates that the process conditions are reasonable and feasible with good reproducibility. Conclusion The method and data are precise and reliable. Besides, it established the processing technology of vinegar CLR and provided a theoretical basis for the processing technology of stir-frying with vinegar of CLR.
