Summary

Pregelatinized corn starch solutions (8% solids) were mixed with 500 ppm each of 1-hexanol, 1-decanol and D-limonene, and subjected to three treatments: control or null treatment, addition of 4% beta-cyclodextrin, and addition of 4% sucrose. Samples were frozen at -15, -60 or -198 deg C, and freeze-dried at a microwave power of 10 watts and a cavity pressure of 1 or 2 torr. Results showed that sample composition was significant in both drying rate and volatile retention.
