This paper reports a novel formation method of monodisperse calcium alginate microbeads from water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) droplets with an ultra-thin oil phase layer. W/O/W droplets containing sodium alginate in an internal aqueous phase were formed as a template of calcium alginate microbeads using a microfluidic device. The ultra-thin oil phase layer of the W/O/W droplets was ruptured by an ...

background and objectives: probiotic yeasts are used in production of functional foods and pharmaceutical products. they play an important role in promoting and maintaining human health. until now, little work has been published on improving the survival of saccharomyces in stimulated gastrointestinal condition. material and methods: in this study the exposure of the yeast in the capsulate and ...

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase, EC 2.4.1.19) is an important member of α-amylase family which can degrade the starch and produce cyclodextrins (CDs) as a result of intramolecular transglycosylation (cyclization). β-Cyclodextrin production was carried out using the purified CGTase enzyme from an alkaliphile Microbacterium terrae KNR 9 with different starches in raw as well as gelatinize...

Novel bioactive films were developed from the incorporation of Lactococcus lactis into polysaccharide films. Two different biopolymers were tested: cellulose derivative (hydroxylpropylmethylcellulose (HPMC)) and corn starch. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) free or previously encapsulated in alginate-pectin composite hydrogel microbeads were added directly to the film forming solution and films were ...

The traditional use of sodium chloride (NaCl) fulfils various important rheological, technological and sensory properties while manufacturing of baked goods. However, using NaCl in the production of food has been controversially discussed since a high intake of sodium is discussed to be associated with hypertension. Retrogradation of starch in bread crumb is defined for changes that take place ...

A standard resin system used in wood-based panel preparation was formaldehyde-based glue, which believed to have fatal effects on the environment and human health due release of free formaldehyde. Therefore, study's objective evaluate physical mechanical properties experimental plywood made using glutardialdehyde-modified starch as an environmentally friendly binder. Two gelatinization methods ...

This chapter evaluates and compares the indoor performance of different concentrations non gelatinized starch in drilling fluid, modified at 80°C, then aged high temperature. Taking plastic viscosity (PV) filtration loss (FL) as main evaluation indexes, a formula with better was selected additive used follow-up study. At same time, inhibition water-based fluid investigated.
