in this study, ice-glazing process of frozen shrimp by chitosan was applied to protect the frozen shrimp from undesirable chemical and physical changes. the effects of 2% chitosan solution glazing on quality of whole, raw and cooked (without head, tail and shell) shrimps stored at -18±2ºc for 6 months were investigated and compared with water glazing, sodium metabisulfite treatment control. gla...

effects of catechin for preventing black spots forming in whiteleg shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) were evaluated. for processing whole shrimp, catechin was used at a concentration of 0.2 and 0.3 % for 15 minutes. sodium metabisulfite was used at a concentration of 3 % for 10 minutes as control samples. without antioxidant shrimp were used as control samples too. treatments quality was evaluated ...

“S INTRODUCTION The concentration of sodium metabisulfite (Na2S2O5) in an ECP-2 bleach accelerator sample is determined by a manual or potentiometric titration using an iodine (I3) titrant. In the method an excess of iodine is added to the sample. Sodium metabisulfite and Kodak persulfate bleach accelerator, PBA-1, present in the sample react with a portion of the iodine. The iodine that did no...

In a retrospective analysis of 1,544 patients who underwent provocative challenge with metabisulfite at the National Jewish Center between 1983 and 1987, an abnormal airway response to metabisulfite was found in 52 patients, an incidence of 3.4 percent. There was no relationship between this abnormal airway responsiveness to metabisulfite and the degree of airway obstruction present, or the deg...

background: sulphites are widely used as a preservative and antioxidant additives in the food and pharmaceutical industries. many types of biological and toxicological effects of sulphites in multiple organs of mammals have been shown in previous studies. objective: the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sodium metabisulfite (smb) on testicular function and morphometric values ...

background: many health problems are related to lifestyle and dietary factors. since ancient times, food additives such as sulfites have been used to preserve foods. diverse effects of sulfites on multiple organs have been reported but its effect on female reproductive organ has not been fully elucidated. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sodium metabisulfite (smb) on ovar...

Sulfites are used as anti-microbial and anti-oxidant agents in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Curcumin, a flavonoid, is an Asian spice that shows neuroprotective activities. The current study aimed to stereologically assess the rats' cerebellar cortex and rotarod performance following sulfite exposure and determine the possible neuroprotective potential of curcumin. The rats were divid...

Hexavalent chromium wastes need to be chemically reduced to trivalent chrome in the shop’s treatment plant. This necessitates the use of expensive chemicals such as sulfur dioxide, sodium metabisulfite or sodium borohydride. Also considerable hazardous sludge is generated during the neutralization step of the treatment process due to the high chromium concentration of the plating solutions. Haz...
