Changes in the content of fat- and water-soluble vitamins in black garlic at the different thermal processing steps

Food Science and Biotechnology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to measure the content of fat- and water-soluble vitamins in garlic and to assess the influence of thermal processes on garlic. The total water-soluble vitamin content increased by about 1.15–1.92 times in black garlic than that in fresh garlic. The total water-soluble vitamin content of the BG4 (70°C and 60% RH for 60 h) sample was significantly higher than that of any other sample (p<0.05). In general, the total fat-soluble vitamin content decreased with each successive thermal processing step. The total fat-soluble vitamin content of the raw garlic cloves (FG) sample was significantly higher than that of any other sample (p<0.05).
