There are many reports on the application of different hydrocolloids in the production of leavened breads; most of which show positive effects on bread quality. However, there is little information to prove such effect on flat breads. The main aim of this study was to improve the quality of Barbari dough and bread (Iranian flat bread) in terms of texture, taste and general acceptability of fres...

This work has been focused on a cellulose pretreatment process using 1-methyl-3-methylimidazolium dimethylphosphate ([DMIM]DMP) for subsequent hydrolysis over cellulase. Different operational variables (the amount of [DMIM]DMP, the pretreatment temperature, the pretreatment period) affecting the pretreatment were investigated. Additionally, the crystallinity index (CI) was characterized by FT-I...

We have characterized the dissolution state of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) in aqueous tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, TBAH(aq), at different concentrations of TBAH, by means of turbidity and small-angle X-ray scattering. The solubility of cellulose increases with increasing TBAH concentration, which is consistent with solubilization driven by neutralization. When comparing the two polymorphs...

Liquisolid systems represent an emerging approach in the preparation of solid dosage forms with liquid lipophilic drug or poorly water-soluble solution/suspension suitable vehicle. This study addresses lack data regarding compaction behavior liquisolid systems, aim to investigate influence load, carrier coating ratio, type (microcrystalline cellulose vs. spray dried calcium hydrogen phosphate, ...

Characterization, understanding and overcoming barriers of enzymatic hydrolysis of different raw materials is essential for the development of economically competitive processes based on enzymatic treatments. This work focused on factors relevant for the improvement of enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose raw materials derived from softwood. The major interest of the work was in lignin. Speci...
