The feasibility of using visible/near-infrared spectroscopy (vis/NIR) to segregate broiler breast fillets by water-holding capacity (WHC) was determined. Broiler breast fillets (n = 72) were selected from a commercial deboning line based on visual color assessment. Meat color (L*a*b*), pH (2 and 24 h), drip loss, and salt-induced water uptake were measured. Reflectance measurements were recorde...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND A natural carbohydrate biopolymer was extracted from the agricultural biomass waste (durian seed). Subsequently, the crude biopolymer was purified by using the saturated barium hydroxide to minimize the impurities. Finally, the effect of different drying techniques on the flow characteristics and functional properties of the purified biopolymer was investigated. The pre...

background quince seed mucilage biopolymer (qsmb), famous for ameliorating coughs and controlling asthma symptoms, has not been processed by scientific methods and rules into a local oral tablet. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the mechanical properties of qsmb with different size fractions of the mucilage powder, dried by oven or by freeze drying, to achieve...

Purpose: To study the mechanical and dynamic swelling properties of grewia gum, evaluate its compression behaviour and determine the effect of drying methods on its properties. Methods: Compacts (500 mg) of both freeze-dried and air-dried grewia gum were separately prepared by compression on a potassium bromide (KBr) press at different pressures and subjected to Heckel analysis. Swelling studie...

This work aimed to establish an integrated approach investigate the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of dried skim camel cow milk their fractions. The fractions were obtained by acid or enzymatic coagulation followed spray drying (inlet temperature/outlet temperature: 125 ± 2 °C/90 °C) freeze (−50 °C, 0.05 mbar) coupled not gamma irradiation (at 5, 11, 22 kGy). results showed t...

Freeze dried cryoprecipitate was used in the treatment of 14 patients with haemophilia A. The in vivo recovery was 91.2% which is comparable to that reported from other parts of Europe. The product was efficacious and no adverse effects were reported. Freeze dried cryoprecipitate is the high yield product of a low technology process and as such may be of value in reducing any possible shortfall...

This study was conducted to determine that carrot powder obtain by different drying methods (oven and vacuum-freeze dryer) of carrot unfit for human consumption that whether feed additives in animal nutrition or not. Carrots randomly divided 2 groups. First group was dried by using oven, second group was by using vacuum freeze dryer methods. Dried carrot prepared from fresh carrot was analysed ...
