Sedimentation combined with a broad particle size distribution in the suspension results multilayered filter cakes, where fine layer forms on top of compressible bottom layer. Owing to their high resistance, particles act as stiff and compress during filtration. This was investigated using model cake composed an artificial Compression determined via volumetric porosity measurement. A reduction ...

Bakery products such as breads are characterized by a typical porous structure and a high specific volume. To obtain such a porous structure, air bubbles have to be incorporated during a mixing or blending step. Gas retention and final volume of the baked good depend, therefore, to a large extent on how fast these bubbles disappear again by one of the following processes: Buoyancy is the proces...

the effect of various pesticides (diflubenzuro, malathion, mancozeb and carbendazim), disinfectants (calcium hypochlorite and formaldehyde) and oil cakes (sunflower and soy-bean oil cakes) commonly used as supplements in mushroom cultivation on the growth of the nematophagous fungus, arthrobotrys oligospora, was studied under in vitro conditions. carbenazim caused 99% inhibition of radial mycel...

Background: The presence of gluten proteins in rice flour leads to some problems for patients of celiac; a digestive autoimmune disease. Consumption of a non-gluten regime can decrease the effects of this disease. The aim of this study was to produce a non-gluten cake with an appropriate quality and high nutritional value by using rice flour, quinoa flour, Persian gums, and Tragacanth. Methods...
