Effect Of Packaging Materials On The Functional Properities Of White Garri

ABSTRACT This research work is on the effect of packaging materials on the functional properties of white garri. in the research work ,three packaging materials were used, namely rice bag, baco bag and plastic bowl. The functional properties that were tested for in this research work were bulk density wettability, gelation capacity, pH, gelatinization temperature, oil absorption capacity, and water absorption capacity. The result of the experiment gave the following bulk density, the value varies from [0.53/ml] for plastic bowl,[0.56/ml] rice bag and[0.61/ml] baco bag, for the wettability it w…
