  2. 16. Physiological and biochemical aspects of vegetable processing. A case study on carrots

    Author : Federico Gómez Galindo; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; mild blanching; antifreeze proteins; cell wall; cold acclimation; carrots; metabolism;

    Abstract : The aim of the present study was to enhance our understanding of vegetables as living organisms, interacting dynamically with the environment, and to explore the possible influence of metabolic changes on subsequent processing operations. Growing conditions, harvesting and handling in the packing house and storage conditions are key events leading to a defined “physiological status” of the vegetable that is going to be consumed as a fresh product or a processed product.

  4. 17. COMBINED DEHYDRATION METHODS - From Fresh Fruit to High-quality Ingredients

    Author : Frédéric Prothon; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; semi-finished products; agent; collapse; apple; microwave-assisted air-drying; dehydration; osmotic treatment;

    Abstract : Numerous products from the food industry contain fruit and/or berries, in the form of fillings or ingredients, e. g. in yoghurt, some bread products/cereal products, ice cream, etc. In order to produce these ingredients and improve their characteristics, many processing techniques are available.

  5. 18. Membrane emulsification: modelling interfacial and geometric effects on droplet size

    Author : Marilyn Rayner; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pore geometry; membrane emulsification; Gases; Surface Evolver; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; plasma; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Food and drink technology; modelling; Livsmedelsteknik;

    Abstract : Emulsification is an important unit operation used in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industry. Membrane emulsification is a relatively new membrane technology which allows the production of emulsion droplets under controlled conditions with a narrow droplet size distribution. READ MORE

  6. 19. Factors Controlling Meat Quality of Pork in Relation to Breed and RN Genotype

    Author : Åsa Josell; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; NIR; rigor development; tenderness; RN gene; Meat quality; pork;

    Abstract : The Hampshire breed was introduced as the terminal sire in Swedish slaughter pigs in the 1970s, mainly to reduce stress susceptibility and associated problems of meat quality, such as the meat being pale, soft and exudative (PSE). Since then, however, the RN – allele, a mutation which is only found in pure-bred Hampshire and in crosses with it, has been discovered. READ MORE

  7. 20. Foam Formation and Starch Gelatinization with Alpha-Crystalline Emulsifiers

    Author : Gisela Richardson; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; image analysis.; rheology; microscopy; amylose-lipid complex; gelatinization; dynamical arrest; amylose; starch; sponge cake; foam; emulsifier; alpha-gel; physical state;

    Abstract : In the baking industry, emulsifiers in the alpha-gel state are used for foam formation. This thesis focuses on some parts of the effects of the emulsifier: how the foam formation and foam stability are influenced by the physical state of the emulsifier, how emulsifiers change the gelatinization and gel formation of starch, and the impact that these factors may have in a true product such as a sponge cake.
