Tóm tắt

In Vietnam, banana trees are grown in all localities throughout the country, especially Ha Giang, Lai Chau, Tuyen Quang, Phu Tho, Hung Yen, and Hai Duong provinces, with large areas and outputs. Therefore, the goal of this study is to determine some nutritional indicators and colour of banana powder, to serve as a scientific basis for the application of banana powder in food processing. The Hai Duong banana powder sample has the highest colour indicator of 2.89, followed by the Hung Yen banana powder sample with a colour indicator of 2.85. The Phu Tho banana powder sample has a colour indicator of 2.43, the Tuyen Quang banana powder is 2.35 and the lowest is the Ha Giang banana powder sample with a colour indicator of 2.27. Banana trees grown in Hai Duong and Hung Yen provinces on fertile alluvial soil in the Red River Delta have a higher soluble dry matter content, total sugar content, total protein content, and vitamin A content than banana trees grown on hillside land in Phu Tho, Tuyen Quang, and Ha Giang provinces.
