Water vapour barrier performance of corn-zein coated polypropylene (PP) packaging films
(Springer, 2008-12)
The novel film structure of corn-zein coated on polypropylene (PP) synthetic film for packaging industry was developed to examine the feasibility of resulting coated films as an alternative water barrier performance for ...
Risk assessment in miscellaneous food processing industries including producers of vegetables and spices
(VTT Technical Research Center of Finland, 2008)
Testing foods for pathogenic and spoilage bacteria is the cornerstone to ensuring
a safe and wholesome food supply. The methods for monitoring of microbial
contamination are based on the following principles:
→ Cultivation ...
Antimicrobial effect of natural antimicrobial agents against foodborne pathogens
(VTT Technical Research Center of Finland, 2008)
Besides that foodborne infections and intoxications cause great danger for
human health they have also adverse impact on the economics. Alternative food
preservation techniques to produce safer foods e.g. systems containing ...
Microbiological risk assessment and preventive actions in bakery and beverage industries in Estonia, Slovenia and Turkey
(VTT Technical Research Center of Finland, 2008)
Risks from microbiological hazards are of immediate and serious concern to human health. Microbiological Risk Analysis (MRA) is a process consisting of three components: risk assessment (RA), risk management (RM), and risk ...
Short wave ultraviolet light (UVC) disinfection of surface - Inhibition of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris spores on agar medium
(VTT Technical Research Center of Finland, 2008)
Alicyclobacillus species are thermoacidophilic spoilage spore-formers found in
soil. The spores can survive the normal hot fill processes that are carried out on
commercial fruit juices. It seems likely that fruit in ...
Acclimation to heat during incubation. 2. Embryo composition and residual egg yolk sac fatty acid profiles in chicks
(Poultry Science Association, 2008-06)
The aim of the research was to evaluate embryo composition and changes in egg yolk fatty acid composition during embryonic development as a function of incubation temperature and age of breeders. Eggs obtained from a common ...
Use of UV-C radiation as a non-thermal process for liquid egg products (LEP)
(Elsevier, 2008-04)
The efficacy of short wave ultraviolet light (UV-C) as a non-thermal process for liquid egg products (LEP) was investigated. Non-pathogenic Escherichia coli strain (ATCC 8739), which shows lower sensitivity to UV-C light ...
Isolation and characterization of Bacillus thuringiensis strains from olive-related habitats in Turkey
(Elsevier, 2008-02)
Aims: To isolate Bacillus thuringiensis strains from different olive-related habitats (olive groves and olive oil factories) in Turkey and to characterize these strains by molecular methods. Methods and Results: A total ...
Colloid deposition experiments as a diagnostic tool for biomass attachment onto bioproduct adsorbent surfaces
(Wiley, 2008-02)
Background: Detrimental processing conditions can be expected in any downstream operation where direct contacting between a crude feedstock and a reactive solid phase is supposed to occur. In this paper we have investigated ...
Characterization of three-phase partitioned exo-polygalacturonase from Aspergillus sojae with unique properties
(Elsevier, 2008-04)
Exo-polygalacturonase enzyme produced by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235 was purified using three-phase partitioning (TPP), an emerging bio-separation technique where a single step as compared to the classical multi-step ...
