Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most grown and consumed pulses it traditionally commercialised as seeds, flour or canned foods. In frame alternative protein sources, chickpea emerged a rich source dietary proteins (17–22%) that can be dry- wet-extracted. The application food ingredients still in early stages, where their properties how they interact within matrices are scarcely stud...

Complex luminaries and lamp geometries can greatly increase the realism of synthetic images. Unfortunately, the correct rendering of illumination from complex lamps requires costly global illumination algorithms to simulate the indirect illumination reflected or refracted by parts of the lamp. Currently, this simulation has to be repeated for every scene in which a lamp is to be used, and even ...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com on canned and processed foods and beverages. The projected trends in globalization over the next coming years suggest that large scale food production and distribution will be greatly impacted.

Foodborne botulism, a potentially lethal neuroparalytic disease, is caused by ingesting preformed Clostridium botulinum neurotoxin. We reviewed surveillance data and reports from 1990 to 2000. Of 263 cases from 160 foodborne botulism events (episode of one or more related cases) in the United States, 103 (39%) cases and 58 events occurred in Alaska. Patients' median age was 48 years; 154 (59%) ...

Methods Patients from Southern Romania with grass pollen rhinitis, diagnosed by allergy evaluation with positive skin prick tests and high serum levels of specific IgE to Pooideae pollen, were screened for food allergy by detailed clinical history of symptoms related to maize-derived edible products, including foods with corn as basic ingredient, such as polenta, porridge, cornflakes, tortilla ...

genetically modified (gm) foods hold the key to ending hunger and malnutrition in africa.   due to the increasing number of gmos cultivation and delay in the approval of biosafety law in nigeria, it has become necessary to screen maize products in order to determine the identity of the consumed daily foodstuffs. in this study, dna extraction from raw and processed maize foods sold commercially ...

The food processing industry is one of the United States’ largest manufacturing sectors, accounting for more than 10 percent of all manufacturing shipments. Concerns over food safety have increased as the industry has been hit by several high profile and large-scale food recalls. Thus, commercial food processors must be vigilant about ensuring the safety of their products. If inadequate or impr...

Many antibiotics have been screened for inhibition of sporeforming bacteria during the last 10 years in this laboratory. The effect of some of these antibiotics on canned food spoilage bacteria has previously been described (Denny and Bohrer, 1959). Recently, two antibiotics which eventually may be of use in food processing have been through a preliminary screening in this laboratory. These ant...
