Rambutan seeds were subjected to SC-CO₂ extraction at 35 MPa, 45 °C to obtain defatted rambutan seed flour. Its physicochemical properties before and after treatment with alkali solution using 0.075 N NaOH were investigated. Alkali-treated flour had a significant increment in bulk density, swelling power, water adsorption capacity, emulsion capacity and stability but a reduction in turbidity, s...

BACKGROUND The present study designed to test effects of defatted soy-fortified wheat bread on the organoleptic properties as well as influences on rat growth rate. METHODS Defatted soy flour (DSF) was blended with wheat flour with extraction rate of 82-84% at 3, 7, and 7% levels plus 3% sugar. Bread produced with these blends compared with regular Taftoon bread and was tested for chemical an...

Cereal Chem. 81(6):693–698 Environmental concerns, the disposal cost of hazardous waste, and the time required for extraction in current methods encouraged us to develop an alternate method for analysis of wheat flour lipids. Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) with carbon dioxide has provided that medium and the method is fully automatic. Crude fats or nonstarch free lipids (FL) were extracte...

Chlorine is used in relatively large concentrations (2000ppm v/w) in flour bleaching processes. No successful by-product identification work has been performed on chlorinated flour despite demonstrated hazards of chlorination on animals in feeding studies. The focus of this work is therefore to examine the chlorination process and identify the by-products formed from the chlorination of cake fl...

Soda lignin was divided into two fractions with different molecular weights by methanol extraction. Lignin amine was synthesized from the low-molecular-weight lignin fraction via Mannich reaction and was used for interfacial modification of poly-(vinylchloride) (PVC)/wood-flour composites. The PVC/wood-flour composites were prepared from surface-treated wood flour and PVC by melt compounding. T...

It has been shown that a substance with properties akin to those of syphilis " antigen " can be extracted from commercial soya bean flour (Stevenson, 1949). The most satisfactory method is the following: 25 g. commercial soya flour is extracted successively with 100, 75, 75, 75 ml. pure ether. The flour is then dried and weighed and extracted for one hour at 800 C. with 95 per cent. ethyl alcoh...

In this paper, a method of determining trace levels of bromate in flour and related foods by ion chromatography with large volume injection has been proposed. The detection of bromate was performed with a suppressed conductivity detector after separation on an IonPac AS19 column with KOH as the gradient eluent. Parameters affecting the extraction efficiency of bromate, such as the flour-to-wate...

to evaluate the flour quality 10 flour plants were selected in iran, tehran province. two kinds of flour were sampled from each plant (flour with 87% extraction named straight-run- flour as well as patent flour). samples were analyzed for their moisture content, ash, maximum viscosity of dough, particle size, falling number and the amount of damaged starch, which was determined through maltose ...

The effect of processing (homogenization, lyophilization, acid-extraction) meat products on iron uptake from meat combined with uncooked iron-fortified cereal was evaluated using an in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model. Beef was cooked, blended to create smaller meat particles, and combined with electrolytic iron-fortified infant rice cereal. Chicken liver was cooked and blended, lyophilized, o...
