Milled flaxseed was incorporated (0-20%) into a combination of bean-corn flours and extruded in a twin screw extruder using corn curl method. Physicochemical parameters such as water activity, color, expansion ratio, bulk density, lipid content, and peroxide values of extruded snack were analyzed. Scanning electron micrographs were taken. Peroxide values and propanal contents were measured over...

In the application of entropy weight method and oil performance index test, weights various indexes lubricating in use are objectively assigned, correlation among multiple samples is investigated by normalization multi-sample data same monitoring index, so that results more accurate reasonable, provide theoretical basis for formula optimization or life promotion.

The atmosphere surrounding the food also influences the shelf life of processed foods. For some processed foods, a lowering of oxygen is beneficial, slowing down discoloration of cured meats and powdered milk and preventing rancidity in nuts and other high fat foods. High carbon dioxide and low oxygen levels can pose a problem in fresh produce leading to anaerobic metabolism and rapid rotting o...

This article aims to uncover the effects of COVID-19 pandemic on energy markets in terms stock indexes, futures, ETFs, and implied volatility indexes. We model demonstrate various phases outbreak (COVID-19) market. COVID-19-induced uncertainty indicators like growth infection, economic policy (EPU), infectious diseases market (IDsMV) have shown pronounced markets’ historical volatility. The ETF...

At the behest of Green Deal, circular economy concepts are currently being widely promoted, not least within aquaculture sector. The current study aims to demonstrate technical feasibility extracting collagen and fish oils from waste Atlantic bluefin tuna biomass originating Maltese industry. For collagen, a three-stage methodology, consisting pre-treatment, extraction, retrieval, was applied b...

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of rancidity and FFA in choice white grease (CWG) on growth performance and nutrient digestibility in nursery pigs. In Exp. 1,150 crossbred pigs (average initial BW of 6.8 kg and average initial age of 21 d) were used. Treatments (as-fed basis) were a corn-soybean meal-based control with no added fat, 6% CWG, and 6% CWG heated at 80 degree...

morphometric characteristics of anticlines can play an important role in the exploration of oil resources. the purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect of geomorphology on the exploration of oil resources in oil-rich bankol and oil-less danehkhoshk anticlines by means of geomorphological indices. to achieve the purpose of this study, topographic maps at a scale of 1:50000 and geologic...

Multistage heat pump drying of macadamia nut under modified atmosphere was studied to improve the drying process and quality of the nuts. Conditions of study included drying temperature of 40-60°C, using nitrogen and normal air as drying medium. Drying kinetics and quality of nuts (moisture content, aw, rancidity and colour) as well as energy consumption of all drying processes were examined. T...
