Effect Of Ionizing Irradiation And Storage On Mushroom Ultrastructure Ii. The Stipe And The Upper Part Of The Cap Of Agaricus Bisporus (Lge. Imbach), A. Keresztes, E. Kovacs
Food Structure
After having investigated t he ultra structural effects of ionizing irradiation used for shelf -life extension , on the gills of Agaricus bisporus and Pleurotus ostreatus previously , it was of interest to examine how other parts of the fruit body were affected by t he same treatment . Samples were taken from the lower and upper parts of the stipe and from the upper part of t he cap of the control , stored , and irradiate d (2.5 kGy ) t he n stored A. bisporus fruit bodies. Transmission electron microscopy sh owed that irradiated samples generally retained …

Internal Porosity Of Corn Extrudate Air Cell Wall, Samuel H. Cohen, Charles A. Voyle
Food Structure
Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe structures within the air cell wall of a corn-based extrudate. Modified fixation and embedding techniques were employed to obtain optimum thin sections. Photomicrographs from these sections showed minute air cells measuring approximately 5 um or less. The size of air cells might impose a limiting factor on the infusion of particulate materials throughout the extrudate matrix.
