Background and Objectives: Rheological characteristics of dough are important for achieving useful information about raw-material quality, dough behavior during mechanical handling, and textural characteristics of products. Our purpose in the present research is to apply soft computation tools for predicting the rheological properties of dough out of simple measurable factors. Materials and Me...

the effect of four types of shortening including a commercially vegetable oil (as control), palm olein (po), palm stearin (ps), and a blend of the latter two oils with rapeseed oil (bf) on the rheological properties of cookie dough was determined by using dynamic oscillatory measurement testing. all of the obtained dough treatments showed weak liquid viscoelastic behavior. their storage (g ) an...

Cereal Chem. 79(2):252–256 Waxy rice starches from three japonica cultivars (Taichung Waxy 1 [TCW1], Taichung Waxy 70 [TCW70], Tachimemochi) and one indica cultivar (Tainung Sen Waxy 2 [TNSW2]) were characterized for chemical and physicochemical properties. The amylopectin structures were different for the four waxy rice starches in terms of degree of polymerization (DP), average chain length (...

Yukwa, a traditional Korean puffed snack made from waxy rice, has long been a popular snack item because of its unique texture and sweet flavor, which results from a coating made with honey or starch syrup (5). Some yukwa products are also coated with puffed or roasted cereal grits for added nutrition and attractiveness. Koreans have traditionally prepared yukwa for festive occasions such as bi...

Cereal Chem. X()(4):437-445 Fourteen l10ur blends of two natural wild-type wbeat (71'iticlIllI lIestiVll1n L.) nours, 'Nuplains' and 'Centum', blended with one waxy nour sample were chamcterized and processed to Asian salted noodles. The flour amylose content range was <1-29%. Damaged starch contents were lOA, 7.0, and 6.6% for the waxy wheat, Nuplains, and Centum, respectively. The waxy flour ...

The soft coral genus Sinularia is one of the most widely distributed soft corals. It constitutes a dominant portion of the biomass in the tropical reef environment. Sinularia elaborates a rich harvest of secondary metabolites including sesquiterpenes, diterpenes, polyhydroxylated steroids, and polyamine compounds. These metabolites were recently shown to possess a range of biological activities...

Sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata), popularly known as sugar or pole is a specialty maize having high content at milk early dough stage. As the considered an exhaustive crop, requires more nutrient, so integrated nutrient management practices play important role in sustaining productivity of sweet corn. A field experiment was conducted during 2019 and 2020 order to study effect on yield post...

the affection of the glands in the neck, the adenoid tissue of the soft palate, tonsils and pharynx was greatly enlarged. The right tonsil projected as a rounded mass as far as the middle of the tliroa displacing the normal uvula forwards. The left tonsil, though enlarged, was not affected to the same extent. The tonsil and soft palate were elastic to palpation, and the mucous membrane covering...
