Application of Cistanche deserticola Extract in Different Flavor Baijiu
In order to investigate the application of Cistanche deserticola in alcoholic products,the extract of Cistanche deserticola was selected as the research object,and it was added to three main flavor Baijiu,namely light-flavor,strong-flavor and sauce-flavor,and its application stability and effect were studied and evaluated in detail.The prepared samples all showed bright brown and yellow color,and the initial color from dark to light was in the order of strong-flavor>sauce-flavor>light-flavor.Results of mouth taste and electronic tongue measurement showed that Cistanche deserticola extract had no significant effect on the main flavor and taste of different flavor Baijiu.The results of animal drunkenness test showed that the drunkenness latency of mice was significantly prolonged after the addition of Cistanche extract in light-flavor and strong-flavor Baijiu(P<0.05).The intoxication period was significantly shortened after Cistanche extract was added to the sauce-flavor Baijiu(P<0.01).The drunkenness values of three flavor Baijiu with Cistanche extract were<100%,it was indicating that the comfort level after drinking was obviously better than that of its blank Baijiu sample,it means the Baijiu quality was improved.The stability test results showed that high temperature(50 ℃)had the greatest influence on the color change of three flavor Baijiu with Cistanche extract,which made the Baijiu color continuously turn red and yellow.The continuous light(3 months)can delay the change of the color of the samples to a certain extent,and even make the strong-flavor sample show a certain fade.Besides,with the extension of time,the contents of echinacoside and acteoside decreased gradually,the degradation rate of them were more than 40%and 30% when the samples were stored in dark environment with 25 ℃ and indoor environment for 12 months.And both light and high temperature environment can accelerate the change rate of echinoside and acteoside contents,after 3 months of acceleration,their degradation rates were more than 40.00%and 50.00%.
