High bakery-stability of fruit fillings during baking at elevated temperatures is a very significant and desirable quality attribute in the manufacturing of filled bakery products. This research was performed with the aim of evaluating the basic physicochemical changes that occur as well as the heat-stability of apple fillings during the baking process in the oven at a temperature of 200°C for ...

The concentration and temperature dependence of the gelation kinetics of high-methoxyl pectin (HMP; 60% sucrose, pH 3) was investigated using measurements of small-amplitude oscillatory shear. The rate of gelation close to the gel point can be described as a second-order rate process using the kinetic model of Ross-Murphy (Carbohydr. Polym. 1991, 14, 281) and a critical exponent close to that p...

When the lethal action of a C-8 methoxyl fluoroquinolone against clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in liquid medium was measured, the compound was found to be three to four times more effective (as determined by measuring the 90% lethal dose) than a C-8-H control fluoroquinolone or ciprofloxacin against cells having a wild-type gyrA (gyrase) gene. Against ciprofloxacin-resistant s...

background: pectinases are pectin degrading class of enzymes including polygalacturonase (pg), polymethyl galacturonase (pmg), pectate lyase (pel), and pectin esterase (pe) that are commonly used in processes involving the degradation of plant materials, such as speeding up the extraction of fruit juices.objectives: a highly methylated pectin degrading bacterium from soil covered with fruit was...

the biopolymer-based nanocomplexes are a group of nanocapsules that are used for encapsulation and control delivery of nutraceuticals. they are formed by binding of proteins and polysaccharides. in this study, complex formation between pectin and sodium caseinate was taken place by addition of pectin solutions(0.2, 0.45 and 0.7 % w/v) into the caseinate solutions (0.5, 1 and 1.5 % w/v) and adju...

This study was performed to determine the effect of multilayered fish oil (FO) emulsion without or with trans-cinnamaldehyde on pork patties. Multilayered FO (-primary, -secondary, -tertiary) emulsions were prepared using a layer-by-layer deposition technique with Tween 20, chitosan, and low methoxyl pectin, and were added to pork patties at the same concentration. Pork patties were then stored...

The effects of Celluclast 1.5L concentration on the physicochemical characterization of gold kiwifruit pectin was evaluated. Varying the enzyme concentration affected the pectin yield and pectin physicochemical properties. The viscosity of extracted pectin was largely dependent on the enzyme concentration. Celluclast 1.5L with medium concentration exhibited the highest viscosity. Varying the en...
