CONCLUSIONS Based on the results of studies conducted in this project, it was noted that vitamin A recovery and dispersion can be affected by factors such as the point of addition, mixing time and manner in which the vitamin A forticant is added. A one-time direct addition of the vitamin A fortificant to a peanut butter of large capacity was found to cause non-uniform dispersion of the vitamin A added. Since peanut butter is a highly viscous product, difficulty in dispersing the vitamin A fortifcant can take place, causing the vitamin A fortificant to concentrate on the area where this was added. Increasing the number of addition/mixing times for incorporating the vitamin A fortificant to a peanut butter matrix, improved dispersion of the vitamin A in the fortified peanut butter. When the vitamin A fortificant was added at a weight ratio of 2.3286 g vitamin A palmitate in oil to 38.81 Kg peanut butter, the vitamin A added uniformly dispersed in the fortified product. Vitamin A recovery however, was noted to be low. The exposure of the vitamin A fortificant to heat generated in the colloid mill during the 2 nd grinding step may have caused the loss of vitamin A thereby affecting the vitamin A recovery. Changing the point of addition of the vitamin A fortificant from the stainless steel vessel before the 2 nd grinding step to the cooling tank after the 2 nd grinding step, was noted to have increased vitamin A recovery. The increase in vitamin A recovery was attributed to the less exposure of the fortified product to heat generated during the grinding step in a colloid mill. Addition of the vitamin A fortificant to the filler tank in the collaborator’s processing line is not recommended as dispersion of the vitamin A fortificant in the fortified product is affected.
