Frozen poultry and staphylococcal food-poisoning.

in the mediastinum becomes excessive and embarrasses the action of the heart. This can be fatal, especially if tension pneumothorax coexists. Other modes of entry of air into the mediastinum include rupture of the trachea, bronchus, or oesophagus from any cause and penetrating wounds of the lung and mediastinal pleura. These are clearly formidable conditions and must always be considered in pat...

Protozoal contamination of water used in Thai frozen food industry.

This study evaluated the prevalence of contamination of water that was used for food preparation. Since protozoal cysts can be found in small numbers in water, 1,000 liters of either untreated or treated water were filtered through activated carbon block filters (1 microm nominal porosity). Identification of protozoa was performed using specific monoclonal antibodies against Giardia and Cryptos...

Fractal analysis of ice crystals in frozen food.

Fractal analysis of the morphology of ice crystal particles in frozen food was attempted for frozen soybean curd (tofu). From a microscopic image analysis of the ice crystal particles, it was found that the perimeter of the ice crystal particles could be recognized as a fractal. Effects of the storage time and storage temperature on the fractal dimension (d(p)) of the perimeter of the ice cryst...
