The burrata cheese is a traditional product from Southern Italy, consisting of an envelope of pasta filata (stretched curd) filled with cream and pasta filata strips (usually leftovers from mozzarella production). Physical [water activity (aw), pH], chemical (moisture, NaCl content) and microbiological [total viable count (TVC), Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., Yersinia enterocolitica, ...

Meat spoilage during low temperature can be considered as an ecological phenomenon, which encompasses the changes of the available substrata, during the prevailing of a particular microbial association of specific spoilage organisms. In fact, spoilage of meat (Chicken, Mutton and Beef) depends on a temperature and duration of storage time. These specific spoilage organisms are the consequence o...

In this study we report a physical analysis of the membrane mechanics affecting the size of the highly curved region of a lipid nanotube (LNT) that is either connected between a lipid bilayer vesicle and the tip of a glass microinjection pipette (tube-only) or between a lipid bilayer vesicle and a vesicle that is attached to the tip of a glass microinjection pipette (two-vesicle). For the tube-...

Mastitis is characterized by increased sodium and decreased potassium in milk, and the effect of this on bacterial growth was examined. Colonies of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus uberis, and Escherichia coli were grown in tryptone broth containing 0−75 mM Na or 0−40 mM K. For S. aureus, the total viable count (TVC) growth rate decreased as Na increased from the normal level to that typica...

Electricity–water cogeneration power plants are an important tool for advancing sustainable water treatment technologies because they provide a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution meeting the energy needs of communities. By integrating production, these can reduce carbon emissions help mitigate impact climate change. This work deals with exergy analysis plant electrical generat...

the effects of grape pomace extract (0, 2 and 4%) on quality and shelf life of silver carp ( hypophthalmicthys molitrix ) fillets during chill storage (4°c) were investigated. the control and the treated fillets were analyzed periodically for microbiological (tvc and ptc), chemical (tvb-n), and sensory characteristics. the results showed that grape pomace-treated samples have lower tvb-n (24.2 ...

Bu çalışmada Diyarbakır bölgesinde üretilen Anadolu manda sütlerinin somatik hücre sayısı ve mikrobiyolojik kalitesinin belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Üretici düzeyinde toplanan 65 adet sütü (SHS), toplam canlı (TVC), koliform bakteriler, E. coli, maya küf ile coli O157 varlığı yönünden incelendi. Ayrıca sütlerde pH analizi gerçekleştirildi. Süt örneklerinin tamamından ortalama 158.740 hücre/ml SHS 6....

In this study, the sensory, microbiological, and biochemical qualities were used to examine quality of Pacific white shrimps (Litopenaeus vannamei) preserved at 0°C during a 10-day period. The sensory was evaluated by index (QI) that resulted from method (QIM) scheme. Meanwhile, total viable count (TVC) K-value assess microbiological shrimp. On day 9, results TVC QIM have shown shrimp showed si...

La thrombose veineuse cérébrale (TVC) dans le contexte du lymphome constitue un événement rare pouvant être grave et mettre en jeu pronostic vital. L'évaluation des facteurs de risque pour une bonne stratification patients est nécessaire avant tout traitement antitumoral. A travers cette observation inhabituelle TVC survenue après début traitement, nous attirons l’attention praticiens sur l'int...
