Fluorescence Image Analysis of Process Cheese Manufactured with Trisodium Citrate and Sodium Chloride

Effect of formulation and manufacturing parameters on process cheese food functionality--I. Trisodium citrate.

The objective of this research was to use a Rapid Visco Analyzer to study the effect of natural cheese age, trisodium citrate (TSC) concentration, and mixing speed on process cheese food (PCF) functionality. In this study 3 replicates of natural cheese were manufactured, and a portion of each cheese was subjected to 6 different PCF manufacturing treatments at 2, 4, 6, 12, and 18 wk of ripening....

Trisodium citrate, Na3(C6H5O7)

The crystal structure of anhydrous tris-odium citrate, Na3(C6H5O7), has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional theory (DFT). There are two independent five-coordinate Na(+) and one six-coordinate Na(+) cations in the asymmetric unit. The [NaO5] and [NaO6] polyhedra share edges and corners to form a three-dimensional framew...

Effects of sodium chloride salting and substitution with potassium chloride on whey expulsion of cheese

Adsorptive capacity of activated charcoal for rifampicin with and without sodium chloride and sodium citrate.

The effects of two saline cathartics (sodium chloride and sodium citrate) on the adsorptive capacity of activated charcoal (AC) for rifampicin were studied. Solutions of rifampicin alone and rifampicin with 7.5 mg/ml cathartic solution were vortex-mixed for 30 s with different quantities of AC. These were incubated for 30 min at 37 degrees C and analyzed for free rifampicin spectrophotometrical...

Pseudohypernatremia secondary to trisodium citrate (Citra-LockTM)

INTRODUCTION Hypernatremia is common among hospitalized patients especially in the intensive care units and presents an independent risk factor for mortality. Mild hypernatremia is often asymptomatic but severe hypernatremia causes central nervous system dysfunction with initial non-specific symptoms of encephalopathy that may progress to seizures, coma and death, if left untreated. Severe hype...
