The objective of current study was to investigate the effects of whey protein coating on the quality of common kilka during frozen storage period. For this study, common kilka was coated with 12% whey protein concentration. Also, non- coated kilka was used as a control sample. Coated and non-coated samples were then stored at -18 oC for six months. Bacterial, chemical and sensory properties of ...

the harvest date more influenced on postharvest quality during storage. in present study, fruits were harvested at four date base on total soluble solids content (5.5, 6.5, 7.5, and 8.5%) and then stored at 0.5 ºc and 80-90% rh, for 18 weeks. the samples were taken in 6th, 12th and 18th interval weeks and evaluated some parameters including weightless, losses, firmness, tss, ta, tss/ta, ascorbi...

in order to alleviate chilling injury in pomegranate (punica granatum) cv. rabab due to cold storage, the fruits were dipped in 0.7, 1.4 and 2 mm of salicylic acid (sa) for 10 min. after 1, 2 and 3 months of storage at 2°c, the fruits were tested for chilling injury (ci) as well as some biochemical parameters. the results revealed that with increase in storage time, ci and ion leakage (il) incr...

In the present study, the effect of addition of flaxseed mucilage on the physicochemical and sensorial properties of semi-fat (1.5% fat) set yoghurt was evaluated. Yoghurt samples were incorporated with flaxseed mucilage at the levels of 0.00, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20% and analyzed periodically for pH value, titrable acidity, viscosity, consistency, water holding capacity, syneresis, colour paramet...

The behaviour of Escherichia coli O157:H7 was studied during the manufacture and storage of Iranian white cheese in brine. Cheese was manufactured using pasteurized cow milk and inoculated with E. coli O157:H7 with inoculum level of 103 cfu/ml. Four treatments were designed. Cheeses were made with or without starter culture and kept immersed in 6 or 8% salt brine during ripening and storage. Ch...

The pellicle or seed coat of almond kernels is subject to darkening during long-term storage and may affect the marketability of the stored product. Environmental conditions during storage and genetic factors both affect the extent of darkening during the storage period. The degree of pellicle color change of five distinct almond accessions was examined during long-term storage at 2, 22 and 32 ...
