Abstract:This study investigated the effects of different test conditions（compression ratio，test speed，and residence time）on the determination results of texture profile parameters of mochi gel.The texture profile analysis（TPA）test mode was employed to obtain parameters such as hardness，viscosity，resilience，elasticity，chewiness，adhesiveness，and cohesiveness.Coefficient of variation（CV）and analysis of variance（ANOVA）were used to analyze the results of texture profile parameters.The results show that the compression ratio has significant effects on hardness，viscosity，resilience，elasticity，chewability，adhesiveness and cohesion.The test speed has significant influence on hardness，viscosity，resilience，elasticity，chewability，adhesiveness and cohesion.Residence time has significant influence on resilience，elasticity，mastication，adhesiveness and cohesion.Through comparative analysis using the CV，appropriate testing conditions for texture were determined to be a compression ratio of 40%，test speed of 1.0 mm/s，residence time of 3 s.The determined conditions obtained through single-factor optimization were subjected to repeated experimental verification，revealing CV of less than 5% for all texture profile parameters.This indicated good stability of the determination results under these test conditions，which effectively reflected the texture characteristics of mochi gel and was suitable for texture test of mochi gel samples.
