We developed a new seafood home meal replacement (HMR) product containing the adductor muscle of pen shell (AMPS) and common squid meat (CSM) via high-frequency defrosting (HFD), superheated steam, quick freezing. Test HMR products were produced by mixing defrosted roasted AMPS, CSM, sauce in ratios 27.5, 45.0% (w/w), respectively, followed freezing at ?35 °C polypropylene plastic bowl covered ...

The paper presents the results and assessment of properties capabilities new types surface hydrophobic agents for treatment fresh matured surfaces concrete other cement-bound layers. Hydrophobisation prevents premature evaporation water thus plastic shrinkage, which inevitably leads to formation cracks in cement-based structures. influence type agents, epoxy water-based (EWH) acrylate (AH) cont...

In the process of any food production, it is important not only to obtain a high quality product, but also minimize industrial waste, reduce energy costs for process. Recently, buyers are paying special attention biological value, popularity organic and natural products growing. The search new types non-traditional raw materials choice rational way processing an task scientists manufacturers. s...

background: freezing is a common way and one of the best methods of seafood preservation for long periods of time; however, the freeze thawing process may influence the quality of food. objectives: oxidation and denaturation of proteins, sublimation and recrystallization of ice crystals can cause changes in the quality of the frozen products. this study was aimed to evaluate the effect of three...

BACKGROUND Legumes are a good source of protein, and are also abundant in carbohydrates, B-group vita-mins, dietary fibre and mineral compounds. MATERIAL AND METHODS This work evaluates the retention of ash, eleven minerals and two heavy metals in products obtained from two common bean cultivars harvested before reaching full maturity, with a dry matter content of about 40%. Analyses were con...

INTRODUCTION Posterior capsule rupture causes instant vitreous contamination, resulting in endophthalmitis. However, transfer of intracameral moxifloxacin (MFLX) to the vitreous has not been examined in detail. We investigated vitreous antibiotic concentrations following intracameral MFLX in both ruptured and intact posterior capsular eyes. METHODS Experiment 1: Intraocular lenses were insert...

In this study, a survey was conducted to both evaluate the consumers' general attitudes for purchasing and storing the raw chicken and determine the thawing practices used for defrosting frozen chicken at home. About 75% of the consumers indicated purchasing chicken meat at least once a week or more. Furthermore, the majority (82.16%) of those who stored at least a portion of the raw chicken st...
