infant formula has a fatty acid composition that meets the needs of the neonates for unsaturated fatty acids.these fatty acids are of major importance during this period of life in which the brain and retina are developing, and will therefore have an influence upon visual acuity and learning abilities. oxygen reacts readily with unsaturated fatty acids, so that every time these compounds are ha...

abstract sour cherry (prunus cerasus l.) is an important iranian-native fruit, considered highly perishable commodity which cannot be stored for any length of time. on this study, effect of three gas compositions (ambient, 5% o2+5% co2+90% n2 and 10% o2+15% co2+75% n2) and two storage temperatures (0 and 5 °c) on two sour cherry cultivars namely erdy jubileum and erdy botermo was studied in a c...

plants gums, hydrophilic colloids, hydrocolloids, mucilages and hydrophilic polymers are compounds that can produce gel. coating materials which applied on food products increased shelf life of food by affecting water loss, gas exchange, oxidation process and decreasing the food spoilage and affect shelf life of food products. coating material could carry antioxidant, antibacterial and/or other...

The shelf-life of a drug product is the time that the average drug characteristic (e.g., potency) remains within an approved specification after manufacture. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires indication for every drug product of a shelf-life on the immediate container label. Since the true shelf-life of a drug product is typically unknown, it has to be estimated base...

The aim of this project was to investigate and develop models for the shelf life of bottled wine and, in particular, the effects of elevated temperatures on the aging process. The MISG group divided the problem into three sub-problems. First, calculations were made to describe the temperature of wine in a single bottle when subjected to an elevated external temperature and then this was extende...

nowadays, using natural preservatives than synthetic ones is increasing. the present study was aimed to compare the effect of thyme (zataria multiflora boiss), onion (allium cepa) and ziziphora clinopodioides extracts on shelf-life extending of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) salted, vacuum packaged fillet, kept at 4°c. for this purpose fish filets were kept in 4 treatment: salted in brine ...

The present investigation aimed to evaluate the effect of turmeric on shelf life extension of shrimp Penaeus semisulcatus under chilled storage conditions by sensory (organoleptic parameters), pH, proximate and bacterial analysis. The experimental setup was grouped into six, head on (group I), head on coated with turmeric (group II), headless (group III), headless coated with turmeric (group IV...

background: antioxidant activities of plant extracts are being studied to increase the shelf life of fish products. some plants such as urtica dioica l. (nettle) can be a good source of antioxidants. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of hydroalcoholic and water extracts of nettle leaf on the chemical properties of superchilled minced meat of the common kilka fish (clupeone...

The goal of point-of-purchase (POP) nutrition information is to help consumers make informed, healthful choices. Despite limited evaluation, these population-based approaches are being advocated to replace traditional, more expensive, individual behavior-change strategies. Few studies have examined the effect of POP information on buying patterns of college students, a group with high obesity r...
