Enhancing probiotic stability in industrial processes

Enhancing probiotic stability in industrial processes

BACKGROUND Manufacture of probiotic products involves industrial processes that reduce the viability of the strains. This lost of viability constitutes an economic burden for manufacturers, compromising the efficacy of the product and preventing the inclusion of probiotics in many product categories. Different strategies have been used to improve probiotic stability during industrial processes....

Enhancing Industrial Processes by Pulsed Electric Fields

Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) processing works through the process of electroporation in cells – destroying the cell membranes through the application of short, very high voltage pulses across a liquid. PEF processing can also improve the performance of industrial processes such as the removal of water from sludge, or the extraction of oils, sugars, or starches from plants, because the ruptured c...

Institutional Requirements for Enhancing Financial Stability in Iran

 The conditions in which the financial system can continuously provide the necessary services for the proper functioning of the economy is called “financial stability”. In this study, using global experience and Iranian data from 1990 to 2016, an aggregate index of financial stability for Iran has been constructed under the four dimensions of "deposit taker institutions", "macroeconomics", "for...

Pollution Control in Industrial Processes

Commentary on industrial processes.

A brief commentary on the three papers presented in the session on 'industrial processes' is presented. In particular, emphasis is placed on the factors considered to be crucial for an industrial process, namely: catalyst activity, the selectivity of the overall catalysed reaction and the lifetime over which the performance is observed. Control of selectivity is viewed as being most important, ...
