fish roe contains high level of protein and unsaturated fatty acids, but the roe are susceptible to spoilage and its sensorial and qualitative characteristics decrease during storage. salt and antioxidant used in the production of roe to prevent or retard spoilage. this study examined the sensory factors (color, smell, taste, appearance) of rainbow trout roe using plant extracts, such as garlic...

Contractile and metabolic properties of bovine muscles play an important role in meat sensorial quality, particularly tenderness. Earlier studies based on Myosin heavy chain isoforms analyses and measurements of glycolytic and oxidative enzyme activities have demonstrated that the third trimester of foetal life in bovine is characterized by contractile and metabolic differentiation. In order to...

      Topical and transdermal drug delivery systems are noninvasive and can be self-administered with the minimization of side-effects, have received increased attention during the past few years. Nanoemulsions, emulsions sized between 20-200 nm with narrow distributions, offer several advantages for topical and transdermal delivery of pharmaceutical agents including controlled droplet size, th...

protein content and its effect on the quality of fresh pastas, obtained from dough preparedwith different formulas: semolina, wheat flour, gluten, wheat bran and soybean proteins, were evaluatedin this paper. tests were carried out in the laboratory using raw materials from the same batch nationalorigin. raw materials were mixed in an auxiliary kneading machine with a 500 g -capacity. the dough...

Methylated chickpea protein (MCP) or native chickpea protein (NCP) were supplemented to milk (0.5%) and combined with a mild thermization (65oC/ 5 min) treatment before storing at 4oC for 30 days. The influence of these combined treatments was assessed on milk physicochemical, nutritional and sensorial quality during storage. Supplementation of milk samples with MCP (0.5% w/v) significantly (p ...

Vitamin C content and sensorial properties have been evaluated in air-dried carrots previously subjected to different ultrasound (US) or conventional blanching pretreatments. In addition, mass spectral fingerprints obtained by the Headspace ChemSensor System have been evaluated for the first time for classification of carrots according to their processing. Conventional blanching treatments at h...

The effect of organic and conventional agricultural systems on the physicochemical parameters, bioactive compounds content, and sensorial attributes of tomatoes ("Redondo" cultivar) was studied. The influence on phytochemicals distribution among peel, pulp and seeds was also accessed. Organic tomatoes were richer in lycopene (+20%), vitamin C (+30%), total phenolics (+24%) and flavonoids (+21%)...

Sensory properties are fundamental in determining the success of a cosmetic product. In this work, we assessed the influence of different oils and emulsifiers on the physicochemical and sensory properties of anti-ageing cosmetic O/W emulsions containing vitamin E acetate as active ingredient. No clear correlation between physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics was evidenced. Sens...
