We prepared various types of yuja powders from juice, fruit, and seed (to maintain the unique flavor) by using different homogenization drying methods investigated their physicochemical properties. To this end, ultrasonic high-pressure homogenization, were carried out to obtain mixtures. These mixtures subjected via spray-drying, freeze-drying, microwave vacuum-drying spray-dried, freeze-dried,...

dehydration, as one of the practical ways to increase the shelf-life and applicability of yoghurt in various foodstuffs, is normally done by freeze drier (fd) which is an expensive and time-consuming process. for these reasons, in the present study the capability of microwave–vacuum drier (mvd), as an alternative process, was investigated. for doing so, the fat free yoghurt samples of 2.2, 4.2 ...

Five exploratory drying runs were carried out in a commercial size (23 m3), radio frequency/vacuum hardwood kiln. The species investigated were Pacific coast hemlock, Douglas-fir and western red cedar of different sizes and grades. Evaluation of the dried lumber showed that the three species can be dried in very short times and low amount of degrade irrespective of thickness with the exception ...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate that the effect of drying process on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) roes in terms proximate composition, aw, pH, TVB-N, TBARs, microbiological counts and color parameters. Drying lasted 42 hours including, 18 at 30oC 24 45oC. The dried fish were vacuum-packed (vacuum degree 0.02MPa) stored 4oC for 90th days. crude lipid, protein, ash...

The cause of initial burst release of hydrophilic macromolecular drugs from biodegradable polymeric microspheres was identified. Poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres encapsulating fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labled dextran was prepared by a double emulsion solvent evaporation method. The extent of initial burst release was examined by varying the formulation process conditions s...

Stable carbon nanotube (CNT) field emitters for a vacuum-sealed miniature X-ray tube have been fabricated. The field emitters with a uniform CNT coating are prepared by a simple drop drying of a CNT mixture solution that is composed of chemically modified multi-walled CNTs, silver nanoparticles, and isopropyl alcohol on flat tungsten tips. A highly thermal- and electrical-conductive silver laye...
