Roasted pistachios are among the most delicious nuts in the world. In addition to their pleasant taste, they have significant nutritional and antioxidant effects. This study aims to evaluate the nutritional, sensory, color, and texture attributes of roasted pistachio nuts using fixed and rotary methods at 160 °C during three storage times of 0, 3, and 6 months, at the ambient temperature (20±2°...

Patties were made from pork loin, individually vacuum- or aerobic-packaged and stored either at 4 or -40°C. Refrigerated patties were irradiated at 0, 1.5, 3.0 or 4.5 kGy absorbed dose, and frozen ones were irradiated at 0, 2.5, 5.0, or 7.5 kGy. Samples were analyzed for lipid oxidation, volatile production and odor characteristics. Refrigerated samples were analyzed at 0, 1 and 2 weeks, and fr...

to determine the effect of hen age and storage condition on egg quality, fresh eggs were sampled from two commercial flocks of white leghorn hens at 28 and 68 weeks of age. half of sampled eggs from each flock were stored at 6°c and the other half was stored at room temperature. fifteen eggs were randomly sampled from each treatment following collection and at 5-day intervals to 30 days of stor...

‘Golden Delicious’ apples (Malus /domestica Borkh.) were either untreated or pressure-infiltrated after harvest with 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4% CaCl2 solutions (w/v) and stored at 0 8C for up to 6 months. The chemical composition of the fruit cortical tissue and cell walls of the 2 /4 mm layer under the epidermis was studied. Storage of untreated fruit resulted in a decrease in K, P, Mg, S and Suc conten...

An optimization problem for systems that are subject to perturbations where both state observations and control actions are impulsive is here addressed. The dynamics equation is given by a differential inclusion ( ) ( , ( )) x t F t x t ∈ and the optimal strategy is the minimizer of the worst viable perturbation process (minimax). Such formulation is appropriate when noise is barely known but l...
