the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of addition of soymilk on physicochemical, microbial, and sensory characteristics of milk fermented with lactobacillus acidophilus. soybeans were blended 1:5 w/v with distilled water. the prepared soymilk was added to milk in combinations of 20%, 40%, and 60%. milk was used as the control. all the samples were sterilized and fermented w...

BACKGROUND: Chicken meat is susceptible to microbial and chemical contamination and using antimicrobial agents helps to prolong its shelf-life. OBJECTIVES: This study focuses on the effect of chitosan-based coating and Trachyspermum ammi essential oil on qualitative properties of refrigerated chicken fillet meat. MATERIAL and METHODS: chicken fillets treated with chitosan solution (2 %wv-1) and...

background: natural antioxidants with plant origin are incorporated to foods in the forms of essential oils or extracts. they can retard lipid oxidation and control spoilage bacteria in foodstuffs (e.g. meat products). objective: this work was aimed to evaluate the effect of nitrite partial replacement with mentha piperita essential oil (mpeo) on oxidative, microbial and sensory properties of c...

compressed biscuits (cbs) were developed using wheat flour, soy flour, sugar, oil and malt extract. combining of compression and dehydration technology were applied for production. packaging cbs using vacuum packaged, use of oxygen absorber (oa) and identical samples were aerobically packaged and stored at ambient and elevated (40°с) temperature for 12 weeks. the effect of different packaging a...

abstract in this study, big-head carp flesh was processed and fish finger was produced by the formula of 1, 2 and 3 with 70, 80 and 93.5 percent of big head fish flesh respectively. then sensory attributes, biochemical changes and nutritional value such as peroxide value (pv), thiobarbituric acid (tba) and the total volatile nitrogen (tvb-n) changes and microbial load of all three formulas were...

Waste oil is an inexpensive source for biodiesel production, but the high amount of impurities present (free fatty acids, oxidation products) impedes its practical application. The aim of this work is to assess the purification efficiency of the adsorption process with eggshell and its active carbon. Carbonization of eggshell was done at 200 ºC for 4 hours. For activation of the resultant carbo...

introduction : pistachio (pistaciavera l.) is a tasty nut and a good source of nutrients. ithas a high content of numerous beneficial nutritive and bioactive compounds such as proteins, carbohydrate, moisture, vitamins, minerals, fiber and other micronutrients compounds, but the most exceptional components are the amount of fats and especially unsaturated fatty acids. therefore, this nut is hig...
