Readily available inexpensive substrate with high product yield is the key to restoring acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation to economic competitiveness. Lactose-replete cheese whey tends to favor the production of butanol over acetone. In the current study, we investigated the fermentability of milk dust powder with high lactose content, for ABE production by Clostridium acetobutylicum a...

The purpose was to compare changes in lean tissue mass, strength, and myofibrillar protein catabolism resulting from combining whey protein or soy protein with resistance training. Twenty-seven untrained healthy subjects (18 female, 9 male) age 18 to 35 y were randomly assigned (double blind) to supplement with whey protein (W; 1.2 g/kg body mass whey protein + 0.3 g/kg body mass sucrose power,...

BACKGROUND Cow's milk-derived whey hydrolysates are nutritional substitutes for allergic infants. Safety or residual allergenicity assessment of these whey hydrolysates is crucial. Currently, rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells expressing the human IgE receptor α-chain (huFcεRIα-RBL-2H3), sensitized with serum IgE from cow's milk allergic children, are being employed to assess in vitro residu...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of oyster shell calcium powder (OSCP) as a substitute for phosphates in curing agent, on the quality of restructured pork ham. Restructured pork ham was processed under six treatment conditions: T1 (no additives), T2 (0.3% sodium tripolyphosphate), T3 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein), T4 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.15% OSCP), T5 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% w...

Background and Objectives: Use of aloe vera gel in dairy industries is important for increasing quality of dairy products. In the present study, effects of aloe vera gel with inulin and whey powder on survival of probiotic bacteria, rheological and sensory characteristics of yogurt were investigated. Materials and Methods: Low-fat (1.5%) probiotic yogurts were prepared from pasteurized milks, ...

The study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary administration Acalypha australis L. leaf extract, whey powder, or a combination both on growth, physiological condition, and carcass traits broilers. A total 392 broiler chicks was divided into four groups based fully randomized design, including (1) control (C, basal feed without additives), (2) supplemented with 1% extract (AALE), (3) powd...

BACKGROUND Milk products deviate from other carbohydrate-containing foods in that they produce high insulin responses, despite their low GI. The insulinotropic mechanism of milk has not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE The objective was to evaluate the effect of common dietary sources of animal or vegetable proteins on concentrations of postprandial blood glucose, insulin, amino acids, and incretin...

Rambutan is a popular fruit widely cultivated in South East Asia. Rambutan seed is a by-product in canned fruit industry. The seed is rich in oil content. Rambutan seed oil contained high level of unsaturated fatty acids which are highly susceptible to microbiological, chemical and biochemical deteriorations. Oil microencapsulation is a popular method to prevent the change of oil quality during...
