The effects of Mentha pulegium water extract dipping on quality and shelf life of silver carp during superchilled storage were investigated. Fish samples were treated with water extract of 1 and 3%M.pulegium, and then stored at -3 οC for 30 days. The control and the treatedfish samples were analyzed periodically for chemical (pH, PV, TBA, TVB-N), and sensory characteristics. The results indicat...

Like freshness date of food, Web information also has its “shelf life”. In this paper, we exploratively study the reflection of shelf life of information in browsing behaviors. Our analysis shows that the satisfaction of browsing behavior is modified if the shelf life of information could be considered by search engines.

Abstract Eggs are commonly used in the food industry because of their excellent nutrient value and also for coagulating, foaming, emulsifying, colouring flavouring properties. Manufacturers substitute shell eggs with processed egg products, such as liquid whole egg, yolk or albumin. They have a shelf life few weeks, but freezing can increase it to 1 year. However, causes gelation case yolk. Thi...

Breeding for better quality fruits is a major focus for tomatoes, which are continuously subjected to post-harvest losses. Several methods have been used to improve the fruit shelf life of tomatoes, including the use of ripening gene mutants of Solanum lycopersicum. We developed extended shelf-life tomato hybrids with better quality fruits using ripening mutants. Nine tomato crosses were develo...

Throughout history, the meat industry has utilized nonmeat ingredients to extend or aid in the shelf-life of products. The classic use of salt and/or nitrites to control and limit microbiological growth and to provide flavor stability during storage has provided needed “insurance” for meat product shelf-life. Currently, consumers’ concern for food safety continues to make methods of extending m...

trissolcus grandis (thomson) (hymenoptera: scelionidae) is the most important egg parasitoid of the common sunn pest, eurygaster integriceps puton (hemiptera: scutelleridae) in iran. demographic characteristics may be used for preliminary screening of parasitoid species or populations as well as for predicting their efficiency under different physical conditions in the field. in this study, the...

The shelf life of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit is determined by the processes of overripening and susceptibility to pathogens. Postharvest shelf life is one of the most important traits for commercially grown tomatoes. We compared the shelf life of tomato fruit that accumulate different flavonoids and found that delayed overripening is associated with increased total antioxidant capacity...

The flavour profiles of two genotypes of Charentais cantaloupe melons (medium shelf-life and long shelf-life), harvested at two distinct maturities (immature and mature fruit), were investigated. Dynamic headspace extraction (DHE), solid-phase extraction (SPE), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-olfactometry/mass spectrometry (GC-O/MS) were used to determine vol...

Short shelf-life grocery goods present some of the biggest challenges for supply chain management due to a high number of product variants, strict traceability requirements, short shelf-life of the products, the need for temperature control in the supply chain, and the large volume of goods handled. A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based data capture system can help solve the problems as...
