The objective of the research was to understand and improve the unusual physical and atomization properties of the complexes/adhesives derived from the tapioca starch by addition of borate and urea. The characterization of physical properties of the synthesized adhesives was carried out by determining the effect of temperature, shear rate, and mass concentration of thickener/stabilizer on the c...

Current research has been done to develop statistically and optimized immediate release tablets for eslicarbazepine. Nineteen formulations of eslicarbazepine acetate are prepared by wet granulation. The three-dimensional Box-Behnken design at three levels (33) was developed study how selected independent variables affect dependent responses. After the initial test, items were as follows; polyvi...

A method to refine corn produces highly pure corn protein isolate (CPI) and intact granular starches (CPI starch). The CPI starch is superior to other commercial starches because of its intact membrane. This paper reports on the effectiveness of the CPI starch in laundering applications by comparison with a commercial starch and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Influence of the different starch materia...

a novel starch/poly (vinyl alcohol)/nano-titanium dioxide (st/pva/nano-tio2) biodegradable nanocomposite film was prepared by homogeneously dispersed tio2 nanoparticles in different ratios of starch/pva-based materials, via a solution casting method. glycerol was used as plasticizer. the mechanical and thermal properties of films were studied using tensile and perforation strength tests and the...

Tropical endomyocardial fibrosis is a rare entity in the present era. Restrictive cardiomyopathy due to tapioca consumption is very rare, although it has been reported in India, especially in state of Kerala. We report a rare case of restrictive cardiomyopathy secondary to tapioca consumption in a 20-year-old male patient.

Consequent on the present shortage of rice and other cereals both in India and in other parts of Asia, it has become increasingly necessary to make up the deficit of starchy foods from other sources. The most promising sources are roots and tubers like tapioca and sweet potato which give two to three times higher yields of calories per acre than the commoner cereals. In fact, in Travancore and ...

In the modern competitive world, agriculture sectors and food processing industries need new tools and technologies for the classification of raw materials based on its ingredients presence (Protein, Carbohydrate, Sugar, Fat, Fiber, Vitamin, and Minerals etc. ) and to be used for suitable application process based on its ingredients. In order to ensure the final product quality in food processi...

Abstrak. Kerupuk merupakan olahan yang terbuat dari adonan berbahan dasar pati. daging sapi salah satu jenis kerupuk bahan dasarnya menggunakan tepung tapioka. Namun kelemahan adalah memiliki nilai gizi kurang baik dikarenakan proses pembuatannya dapat menurunkan gizi, sehingga perlu adanya upaya untuk memenuhi kebutuhan konsumen dengan cara diversifikasi penambahan ekstrak daun kelor. Peneliti...
