Bitter melons have been proven with anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic activities. However, due to its short shelf life bitter taste, the consumption of melon is limited in United States. Among many encapsulation technologies, spray drying a cost-effective method for bioactive compounds. Polysaccharides proteins are vastly used as wall materials The juice can provide protection over compounds ...

The rapid emergence of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) technology holds great promise for future applications due to their large volume specific surface areas with high diverse surface activities than bulk gold. These properties have made AuNPs of great importance in the development of excellent nanoelectronic chips, promising vehicle for a wide range of biomedical and environmental applications. Ho...

in this study, the effect of accelerated ripening with encapsulated protease and lipase on physiochemical properties such as fat and moisture, texture and microstructure of brined cheese was investigated. addition of lipase increases hardness by reducing fat globules diameter and increasing casein matrix junction. it also decreases brittleness by fat degradation which is responsible for plastic...
