Kim, M.H., Kim, S.M., Kim, C.S., Park, S.J., Lee, C.H. and Rhee, J.Y. 2002. Quality of Korean ginseng dried by a prototype continuous flow dryer using far infrared radiation and hot air. Canadian Biosystems Engineering/Le génie des biosystèmes au Canada 44: 3.473.54. This study was performed to examine the effects of infrared (IR)/hot-air combination drying on some quality attributes of Korean ...

Chemoprevention is an attempt to use nontoxic natural and synthetic substances or their mixtures to intervene the relatively early stages of carcinogenesis, before invasive characteristics are manifested. The consumption of fruits is well known to reduce the risk of human cancers. Although most fruits are available only on a seasonal basis, recent advances in food processing technologies have m...

in this work, different ethyl 2,4-dioxo-4-arylbutanoate derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their src kinase inhibitory activity. for this purpose, the appropriate substituted acetophenone derivatives reacted with diethyl oxalate in the presence of sodium ethoxide in dried ethanol to give the corresponding products. all compounds showed moderate activities comparing with staurosporine a...

Outer scales of yellow onion bulbs turn brown during maturing. The brown outer scales contain an antifungal component, 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid. An aim of the present study is to elucidate the mechanism of formation of the benzoic acid. In a browning scale, the scale was divided into three areas; fleshy, drying and dried brown areas. Levels of quercetin glucosides in dried brown areas were les...

Microalgae can produce various natural products such as pigments, enzymes, unique fatty acids and vitamin that benefit humans. The objective of the study is to study the bioaccessibility of carotenoids (β-carotene and lycopene) and vitamin E (α- and β-tocopherol) of Nannochloropsis oculata and Chaetoceros calcitrans. Analyses were carried out for both the powdered forms of N. oculata and C. cal...

This data article reports on the chemical properties of commercial fish sauce products associated with the fish sauce taste and flavor. All products were analyzed in triplicate. Dried solid content was analyzed by moisture analyzer. Fish sauce salinity was determined by a salt meter. pH was measured using a pH meter. The acidity was determined using a titration assay. Amino nitrogen and total n...

A standardized descriptive language for skim milk powder and dried dairy ingredients was developed. The lexicon was initially identified from a large sample set of dried dairy ingredients (138). A highly trained descriptive panel (n = 14) refined terms and identified references. Dried dairy ingredients (36) were then evaluated using the developed language. Twenty-one descriptors were identified...

Fungi which grow in stored commodities are xerophilic, that is, capable of growing at reduced water activity (aw). Some xerophilic fungi either will not grow or grow only very slowly at the high aw values of media traditionally used to enumerate yeasts and moulds in foods and feedstuffs. Populations of xerophiles may therefore be underestimated or go undetected if the media and methods normally...
