Background: Globally, hot cooked refined rice is consumed in large quantities and is a major contributor to dietary glycaemic load. This study aimed to compare the glycaemic potency of hot and cold stored parboiled rice to widely available medium grain white rice. Method: Twentyeight healthy volunteers participated in a three treatment experiment where postprandial blood glucose was measured ov...

The factors which influence ethanol yield are: the quantity of fermenting sugars from raw material, the heating temperature of the mashes, the fermentation time, the distillation parameters. Out of the already-mentioned factors, the heating temperature of the mashes and the fermentation time have been studied. From the analyzed data it has been found that the highest percentage of alcohol can b...

The effect of dietary fiber enrichment (wheat bran) and cooking methods (oven, steam and microwave) on functional and physico-chemical properties of raw nuggets formulation as well as nutritional, color and textural properties of chicken nuggets were analyzed in this study. Among different cooking methods used for nuggets preparation, steam cooked nuggets had significantly (p<0.05) higher water...

The objective of this work was to study the sensory attributes and their relationships with isoflavones and hexanal contents of soymilks made in laboratory and commercial samples. The laboratory soymilk samples showed cooked grain and cotton candy aroma and cooked grain, malty and sweetness flavor (a mild flavor). The commercial samples presented stronger roasted soy, rancid, sesame seeds and f...

The effect of vacuum packing on the shelf-life of sausages produced from Capoeta umbla were investigated during storage periods. For this purpose, microbial, chemical and sensory changes were analyzed throughout the storage time. The microbial flora of the sausages comprised mainly mesophilic bacteria, psychrotrophic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, yeast and molds. Escherichia coli, Staphylcocc...

A retrieval method for human Mocap (Motion Capture) data based on biomimetic pattern recognition is presented in this paper. BVH rotation channels are extracted as features of motion for both the retrieval instance and the motion data. Several hyper sausage neurons are constructed according to the retrieval instance, and the trained domain covered by these hyper sausage neurons can be considere...

About 10% of 346 Penicillium cultures isolated from mold-fermented sausage synthesized the toxic metabolite penicillic acid on liquid media. Five of these producing cultures inoculated onto sausage failed to produce this toxin in up to 70 days of ripening. Several amino acids normally occurring in meat (cysteine, glutathione, arginine, histidine, and lysine) were found capable of readily reacti...
