The effects of freeze-thaw processing on the characteristics of hot-air drying and the coefficients of moisture diffusion in Malus domeri (Bois) chev were investigated. The results showed that the freeze-thaw pre-treatments had significant effects on drying characteristics. It was found that freeze-thaw pre-treatments could significantly shorten the drying period and increasing the drying rate. Logarithmic model provided better simulation of drying curves for freeze-thaw M. domeri (Bois) chev. at different drying conditions. The results indicated that Deff increased with the increasing of times of freeze-thaw.

In order to understand the effect of different pretreatments on the hot air drying characteristics and quality of red rose, four different pretreatment methods ,i.e. impregnated 5% citric acid solution, 20% sugar solution, 20% NaCl and citric acid mixed solution and blanching, the pretreated petals were used as the control, to conduct comparative experiments and analysis of hot air drying. Sensory properties (color, total flavonoids, total phenols) and microstructure of red rose were examined, and combined with fuzzy mathematical comprehensive evaluation method for sensory evaluation. The results showed that drying rate of rose petals was influenced significantly by different pretreatment …

This paper deals with the investigation of ultrasound (US) pretreatment of brewer’s spent grain (BSG) as ameans of releasing fermentable sugars, and the subsequent production of ethanol from this lignocellu-losic biomass. Using response surface methodology (RSM), the influence of US power, time, temperatureand biomass loading on fermentable sugar yield from BSG was studied. The optimal conditions werefound to be 20% US power, 60 min, 26.3°C, and 17.3% w/v of biomass in water. Under these conditions,an approximate 2.1-fold increase in reducing sugar yield (325 ± 6 mg/g of biomass) was achieved, relativeto untreated BSG (151.1 ± 10 mg/g of biomass). In …

There is an emerging demand for more value-added meat packaging technologies which enhance meat quality. Overall, colour is the most important quality trait judged at point of purchase as sensory traits cannot be physically assessed prior to consumption (Carpenter, Cornforth, & Whittier, 2001; Van Rooyen, Allen, Crawley, & O’Connor, 2017). Consumers use colour as an indicator of freshness and wholesomeness and this influences perceived meat quality (Carpenter et al., 2001; Issanchou, 1996), while discoloration is associated with unwholesomeness (Faustman & Cassens, 1990) and leads to economic losses (Kropf, Hunt, & Piske, 1986) and food waste. Packaging directly affects the colour …

The effect of 5% CO pretreatments prior to vacuum packaging of beef striploin steaks (Longissimus thoracis et lumborum, LTL) on quality attributes, primarily colour stability was investigated. The aim was to determine the optimum pretreatment that would induce the desirable red colour, while allowing discoloration to occur by the end of a 28-day display period (2°C), so as to not mask spoilage. A range of pretreatment exposure times (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 15 and 24h) were applied to steaks using a gas mixture of 5% CO, 60% CO2 and 35% N2. The 5h CO pretreatment exposure time achieved the …
