Breakthrough energy savings were recently projected by a spray-dryer free dairy powder manufacturing process based on superconcentration and granulation. The extent of the recirculation rate for granulation, determines performance. In this study, evolution physical properties during granulation was investigated model system (skim milk microfiltrate) using rheological shear-cell techniques. Resu...

In this study, skim milk powder (SMP) aqueous dispersions were subjected to a preliminary wet heat incubation at various temperatures (70–90 °C) improve the stability of recombined filled evaporated (RFEM) emulsions. The determination free amino group and lactose content SDS-PAGE revealed that both whey proteins caseins involved in conjugation with upon heating different temperatures. results n...

Milk contaminated with melamine resulted in an important health hazard that affected many babies in China recently. Ultrasonic characterization of adulterated milk may detect gross levels of melamine contamination. Sound speed and density measurements were made in skim milk as a function of melamine adulteration. An ultrasonic measurement technique to implement milk quality control is discussed.

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate microencapsulation palm oil fractions (palm olein (POL) and 90% olein+10% stearin (POS)) using skim milk powder (SMP) maltodextrin (MD) by spray drying. Twenty-seven emulsions with POL were prepared determine appropriate solid content (SC) oil/coating material ratio (O/CM) the be fed into dryer. Emulsion properties, such as viscosity stability, ...

Native whey, produced by microfiltration of skim milk, has great potential in infant nutrition and as a functional food ingredient; however, processes to produce whey powder using high temperatures can adversely affect protein quality. The individual effects three critical processing steps were investigated: standard thermal pasteurisation, membrane concentration spray drying on quality when pe...

Eight bifidobacterial strains isolated from human breast milk have been tested for their abilities to convert linoleic acid (LA) and α-linolenic acid (LNA) to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and conjugated α-linolenic acid (CLNA), respectively. These bioactive lipids display important properties that may contribute to the maintenance and improvement human health. Three selected Bifidobacterium b...

Buttermilk is a dairy ingredient widely used in the food industry because of its emulsifying capacity and its positive impact on flavor. Commercial buttermilk is sweet buttermilk, a by-product from churning sweet cream into butter. However, other sources of buttermilk exist, including cultured and whey buttermilk obtained from churning of cultured cream and whey cream, respectively. The composi...

The object in this study is to investigate the effects of high pressure and freezing processes on the curdling of skim milk depending on the presence of transglutaminase (TGase) and glucono-δ-lactone (GdL). Skim milk was treated with atmospheric freezing (AF), high pressure (HP), pressure-shift freezing (PSF) and high pressure sub-zero temperature (HPST) processing conditions. After freezing an...

Protein is important to the human body, and different sources of protein may have different effects on the risk of breast cancer. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the association between different dietary protein sources and breast cancer risk. PubMed and several databases were searched until December 2015. Relevant articles were retrieved according to specific searching criter...
