The physical properties and sensory attributes of phosphate-free frankfurters were examined using response surface methodology by varying the amounts of five compositional variables: salt, modified tapioca starch-, sodium citrate (NaC)- and wheat bran and fat in the batter. Altogether, 20 different types of frankfurters were prepared. When the frankfurters were made without phosphate, additiona...

Surface solid dispersions using water-insoluble carriers like crospovidone, croscarmellose sodium, sodium starch glycolate, pre-gelatinized starch, potato starch and Avicel PH 101 were investigated to enhance the dissolution rate of the glimepiride, a poorly water insoluble drug. The effect of various carriers on dissolution profile was studied using presence absence model. The surface solid di...

Rice starch was cross-linked with epichlorohydrin (0.3%, w/w, on a dry starch basis) and oxidized with sodium hypochlorite (2.5% w/w), respectively. Two dual-modified rice starch samples (oxidized cross-linked rice starch and cross-linked oxidized rice starch) were obtained by the oxidation of cross-linked rice starch and the cross-linking of oxidized rice starch at the same level of reagents. ...

The hydrophilic flocculation of pyrite fines in aqueous suspensions with corn starch was studied by measuring particle size distribution, microscopy observation and micro-flotation. Furthermore, the interaction of corn starch with pyrite was investigated by determining the adsorption density and based on zeta potential measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) analysis in this wor...

Consumer preferences in east Asian part of the world pave the way for consumption of lotus stem starch (LSS) in preparations such as breakfast meals, fast foods, and traditional confectioneries. The present study envisaged the investigation and optimization of additives, that is, acacia gum, sodium chloride (NaCl), and sucrose, on water absorption (WA), water absorption index (WAI), and water s...

Four kinds of modified starches that are expected to improve the quality crystal dumpling skins were selected, namely Potato acetate starch, hydroxypropyl Octenyl succinate starch sodium, Acetate cassava starch. Through determination physical indicators above four starches, and then explore feasibility applying them their quality. Studies have found light transmittance is higher than original m...

Uniformly labelled radioactive glucose was fed to Chlorella cells in the presence of non-radio­ active carbon dioxide. The concentration of carbon dioxide was varied and the distribution of radio­ activity determined in the light. At low concentrations of carbon dioxide much of the radioactivity appeared in glycollate or derivatives thereform. By contrast, at higher concentrations of carbon dio...

Well-formed Streptomyces colonies were counted more rapidly when a starch casein medium containing antibiotics was supplemented with either magnesium chloride or additional sodium chloride.

Rosuvastatin is a Dyslipidaemic Agents, which acts by inhibition of HMG-CoA reductase enzyme. Used in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. Therefore the present investigation was to design a formulation of orally disintegrating tablets of Rosuvastatin. Orally disintegrating tablets of Rosuvastatin were formulated by Superdisintegrant addition method by direct compression technique. All the fourteen...
