Dehydration is an irreversible process resulting in the loss of structural integrity and rehydration capacity (RC) food products. Pretreatment methods are used to condition tissue vegetables for dehydration order reduce its effect on In this study, we investigated ohmic blanching as a pretreatment method compared it with water microwave blanching. The Peleg model was evaluate properties through...

Drying kinetics of Malaysian Moringa oleifera leaves was investigated using a convective-air dryer. The drying parameters were: temperature (40, 50, 60, 70 °C), air velocity (1.3 m s–1, 1.7 s–1). process took place in the falling rate period and there an absence constant this experiment. Six mathematical models (Lewis, Henderson Pabis, Wang Singh, Peleg, Page, logarithmic) were selected for des...

This study evaluated the respiration rate of coated and uncoated (control) papayas (Carica papaya L.) with 15% Kelulut honey (KH) nanoparticles (Nps) coating solution during cold storage at 12 ± 1 °C for 21 days. The significantly changed storage, an increase in CO2 a decrease O2 C2H4, while ascorbic acid total phenolic content was maintained. changes were rather slower when compared to control...

The problem of lifting a preference order on set objects to family subsets this is fundamental with wide variety applications in AI. process often guided by axioms postulating properties the lifted should have. Well-known impossibility results Kannai and Peleg Barbera Pattanaik tell us that some desirable – namely dominance (strict) independence are not jointly satisfiable for any linear if all...

Sorption characteristics are studied for their influence on the storage stability of dehydrated products and effect water vapour diffusion. In present work, adsorption curves snacks with without substitution wheat flour by cassava puree (PDM) were analysed using saturated salt solutions at 10, 30 50 ºC. Type III obtained samples PDM type II control sample. Mathematical modelling was then perfor...

Cuts of muscle (biceps femoris) from three crossbreeds between the Nelore, Angus and Wagyu breeds cattle (Crossbreed 1 (C1): ½ Nelore; Crossbreed 2 (C2): ¾ ¼ 3 (C3): Wagyu, Nelore Angus) were characterized by their chemical composition, pH, water activity lipid oxidation. The cuts submitted to wet brining in a 5 % NaCl concentration at °C with either static brine (SB) or assisted ultrasound (US...

The present article includes the Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction (UAE) of Citrus unsiu Marc. leaves rich in polyphenols. The best possible combinations of solvent, pH of the media, solvent/solid ratio, extraction time, extraction temperature and particle size were obtained for the maximum extraction of Total Phenolic Compounds (TPC) and Total Flavonoid Compounds (TFC) by us...

Background and objectives The production of precooked rice has mainly been applied to long varieties, while japonica varieties are significantly less represented, especially Spanish varieties. aim this paper was model the water mass flow process in round-shaped (Bahía-Senia) for soaking (Peleg model) drying phases (drying by hot air combined microwaves, Fick, Midili, Page models). Optical mecha...

A abóbora (Cucurbita moschata) é uma hortaliça apreciada por pessoas de todos os níveis renda, porém, suas sementes são descartadas, caracterizando um desperdício em virtude da sua rica composição nutricional. Uma das formas minimizar esse descarte disponibilizar alternativas uso semente, aumentando seu atrativo para industrialização e consequentemente as possibilidades aplicação na elaboração ...

The mathematical description of changes dried apples characteristics (mass gain, volume increase, dry matter loss, rehydration indices, and colour) during their was performed. effect conditions both processes on model parameters were also considered. Apple slices (3 10 mm) cubes (10 in natural convection (drying air velocity 0.01 m/s), forced (0.5 2 fluidisation (6 m/s). Drying temperatures (Td...
