Sulphur dioxide (SO2) has been used for centuries to minimize color in food processing and fruit and vegetable storage. In the sugar industry, it is used routinely by sugar beet processors to reduce and prevent color formation in white refined sugar. Sugarcane processors throughout the world use SO2 to produce plantation white sugars. This study was undertaken to determine the effect of SO2 on ...

Objective Fungi produce many different carotenoids and some are attractive in medical and industrial sources. In this work the ability of Mucor hiemalis (PTCC 5292) to produce carotenoids in media with different nitrogenous and carbon sources and incubation with white, yellow, blue and red lights (15W, 220V, E27) against dark-grown were studied. Materials and Method The microorganism cultiva...

Cane sugar, sucrose, is a molecule composed of one unit of glucose and one of fructose. In the body, both the glucose and fructose are eventually burnt to produce carbon dioxide and water and provide energy that allows the body to maintain homeostasis. Other dietary macronutrients including other carbohydrates e.g. as in taro, fats, protein and alcohol are also be burnt to provide energy. There...
