Abstract Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) technology is undergoing continuous development. This development has so far consisted mainly of expanding the palette raw materials and preparing them accordingly. The breakthrough in AAC came as a result introduction automatic control production processes. automation made it much easier to maintain proper autoclaving cycle. It allowed precise regulat...

The effects of autoclaving 2 varieties of micronized (fine grinding) pea protein concentrate (PPC) on the ileal digestibility (ID) of CP and amino acids (AA) were studied in broilers. There was a control diet based on fermented soybean meal (FSBM) and 4 extra diets in which the FSBM was substituted on a CP basis by PPC from 2 different pea cultivars (PPC-1 and PPC-2), either unheated or autocla...

A few previous studies have shown that heat processing may increase the bioavailability of phytate-P in some foodstuffs. Therefore, two chick experiments were conducted to determine the effect of various increased heat processing treatments on bioavailability of P in DDGS. In addition, two precision-fed cecectomized rooster assays were conducted to evaluate the effects of the heat treatments on...

Retrograded starch (RS(3)) was produced from indica rice starch with three kinds of gums (konjac glucomannan, KGM; carrageenan, CA, USA; and gellan, GA, USA) by autoclaving, respectively, and the effect of the gums on the retrogradation behavior of starch was estimated. The influences of polysaccharide concentration, sodium chloride concentration, autoclaving time, refrigerated time, and pH val...

Oligosaccharides in beans are known to be the major cause of flatulence associated with beans consumption. The effects of soaking, autoclaving and repeated boiling on the oligosaccharide levels in ten cowpea varieties were studied. The oligosaccharides were extracted in 70% aqueous ethanol and separated by thin layer chromatography (TLC) method. The quantitation was done using the spectrophotom...

Abstract Background A variety of basic and applied research programs in plant biology require the accurate reliable determination tissue cold hardiness. Over past 50 years, electrolyte leakage method has emerged as a popular practical for quantifying amount damage inflicted on by exposure to freezing temperatures. Numerous approaches carrying out this analyzing resultant data have emerged. Thes...

The effect of thermally processed rice koji extracts on survival of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was examined in comparison with non-heated koji extract. In chronological life span (CLS) tests on high-sugar fermentation, the survivals of the yeast cells grown with heated koji extracts were higher than non-heated koji extract. Heat treatment of the extracts by autoclaving led to a loss in most...
