The present study describes the implementation of a food safety system in a dairy processing plant located in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, and the challenges found during the process. In addition, microbiological indicators have been used to assess system's implementation performance. The steps involved in the implementation of a food safety system included a diagnosis of the prerequisites, ...

an investigation was carried out to reveal the changes in the concentration of soluble carbohydrates under tuber dormancy in food yam (dioscorea esculenta) tubers and in an economically important spice cum medicinal plant turmeric (curcuma longa) rhizomes under storage. harvested, fully matured tubers of yam and rhizomes of turmeric were stored in wooden boxes under the conditions of 28 ? 2?c t...

Food physical chemistry is considered to be a branch of Food chemistry [1] [2] concerned with the study of both physical and chemical interactions in foods in terms of physical and chemical principles applied to food systems, as well as the applications of physical/chemical techniques and instrumentation for the study of foods.[3] [4] [5] [6] This field encompasses the "physiochemical principle...

The viability of probiotics in non-dairy food products during storage is required to meet content criteria for probiotic products. This study investigated whether non-dairy foods could be matrices for probiotics. Selected probiotic bacteria were coated on non-dairy foods under two storage conditions, and viabilities were assessed. The non-dairy foods were coated with 5-7 log cfu g-1 of Lactobac...

There is considerable interest in using nano-emulsions (NEs) as delivery systems for lipophilicbioactive ingredients. In this study, the influence of G on the properties of vitamin E (VE) enriched NEsprepared using spontaneous emulsification (SE) method, were investigated. The particle size and optical clarityof the NEs depended strongly on the co-solvent presence, absence, an...

antioxidant active packaging is one of the active packaging that prevents of lipid oxidation by releasing antioxidant during storage of food. in recent years the use of natural antioxidant instead of the synthetic variety in these packaging has been considered. the aim of this study was evaluating the performance of polymeric film coated with natural antioxidant (rosemary extract) to prevent li...

Work in progress towards a descriptive social simulation is described. The phenomena of concern are the systems that supply food to those in Russia – Russian food supply chains. The ultimate aim is to represent, within a single simulation framework, the situations in this regard at different stages in recent history, namely the situations in: the recent Soviet era; immediately after the collaps...

taking advantage of the new technology, supply chain has already created a chain of cooperation among its own companies, and, in a larger scale, within a universal environment. superior to these technologies is rfid which is an abbreviation for radio frequency identification. rfid is one of the most advanced technologies in the contemporary world. perishable products and hose with short time ex...

Background The extent of co-sensitization within and between food protein families in an adult population is largely unknown. This study aimed to identify the most frequently recognized components in the PR-10 and storage protein family, as well as patterns in (co-)sensitization, in a birch-endemic area. Methods Results of ImmunoCAP ISAC, performed during routine care in Dutch adult outpatien...
