today, in parallel to growing in acceptance of functional products, various additives are used to improve the characteristics of functional food products. the coenzyme q10 plays a vital role in cellular energy production. it also increases the body's immune system via its antioxidant activity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the addition of coenzyme q10 on physicochemical properties of or...

todays, parallel to growing in acceptance of functional products, various additives are used to improve the characteristics of functional food products. the coenzyme q10 is an essential component for energy conversion and production of adenosine triphosphate (atp) in the membranes of all body cells and organelles, especially the inner mitochondrial membrane is found. coenzyme q10 plays a vital ...

abstract in this study the possibility of utilizing date syrup as a sugar replacer in soft ice-cream was investigated. for this purpose control sample was formulated based on iranian ice- cream standard. data syrup which produced from third grade kabkab dates, replaced sucrose in four levels (25, 50, 75 and 100%). physical properties including overrun, viscosity and freezing point (drawing temp...

despite the numerous health effects of the dietary fibers, the amount of the fiber in the diet is generally lower than the recommended value. therefore, increasing the fiber content of the foods particularly those of high consumption can compensate for the shortage of the fiber in the diet. however, it seems a difficult task since increasing the fiber content can have adverse effects on product...

in this paper, the effect of two domestic seeds hydrocolloids (basil seed and sage seed gums) and one commercial hydrocolloid (pectin) on characteristics of non-fat concentrated yoghurt was studied. for this purpose, effect of different concentrations of these gums (0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2%) on physicochemical and sensory properties after 1 and 7 days were investigated and compared with control...

stabilizers have been used to improve the texture of ice cream for several decades. they added it to ice cream to control ice and lactose crystal growth during hardening and storage, to give body and stiffness during freezing for air incorporation and to impart smoothness in body and texture. nowadays, most of the industrial stabilizers are provided from abroad, so, extraction, determination of...

Yogurt is the most important fermented dairy product. However, its per capita consumption in Iran is low. Production of flavored yogurt to create a variety of products can cause customer satisfaction and increase in per capita consumption. Flavored yogurt at three levels: 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 were prepared by adding Zoulang aqueous extract. The systems were prepared by following a factorial design,...
