Developments And Properties Of Plastic Mimicking Biopolymers For Food Packaging Application, Daniel I. Hefft
Journal of Applied Packaging Research
Sustainability takes an ever increasing importance in the food industry. Here not only the selection of raw materials plays a role, but also packaging materials. Nowadays there is an increasing number of biodegradable and bio-compostable packaging materials available.
However, these materials are still not able to replace mineral oil based packaging materials completely, nevertheless they are becoming increasingly important, since there must be solutions to problems such as pollution of the oceans by plastic waste, growing piles of rubbish from growing population, etc.
The following literature review shows briefly recent developments on plastic mimicking biopolymers, as these materials guarantee great …

Luminescence Techniques To Identify The Treatment Of Foods By Ionizing Radiation, G. A. Schreiber, B. Ziegelmann, G. Quitzsch, N. Helle, K. W. Bogl
Luminescence Techniques To Identify The Treatment Of Foods By Ionizing Radiation, G. A. Schreiber, B. Ziegelmann, G. Quitzsch, N. Helle, K. W. Bogl
Food Structure
About a decade ago two luminescence techniques, thermoluminescence (TL) and chemiluminescence (CL), were first described as methods for the detection of irradiated spices. It has now been established that the CL method can be used to screen only certain foodstuffs for irradiation. The TL method, instead, has been developed for clear identification of foods irradiated with at least 1 kGy and contaminated by minerals. The method is therefore suitable for a wide range of foodstuffs and it has been applied by laboratories for routine control. The latest findings prove that even irradiation with very low doses used to inhibit the …
An Overview Of The Role Of Fat In Nutrition And Formulation And Its Measurement In The Live Animal, Meat Carcass And Processed Meat Products, Paul B. Newman
An Overview Of The Role Of Fat In Nutrition And Formulation And Its Measurement In The Live Animal, Meat Carcass And Processed Meat Products, Paul B. Newman
Food Structure
The role of fat in nutrition and health is complex but one about which consumers have only recently become aware. As a consequence of changing consumer attitudes and because fat affects many physical attributes in food, raw material suppliers and food manufacturers have attempted to improve the range and nutritional composition of available foodstuffs. However, with a substantial price difference between fat and lean, and ever-increasing demands for improved throughputs and operational cost performance, producer and manufacturing sectors require rapid, accurate methods of fat measurement suitable for commercial application. These are only just beginning to become available but should ultimately …
Recent Developments In The Application Of X-Ray Microanalysis To The Study Of Food Systems, B. E. Brooker
Recent Developments In The Application Of X-Ray Microanalysis To The Study Of Food Systems, B. E. Brooker
Food Structure
Low temperature scanning electron microscopy in conjunction with X-ray microanalysis can be used to study not only the internal structure of intact bulk food systems but also the distribution of their constitutive chemical elements. However, the considerable practical problems that are usually encountered when performing X-ray analysis on frozen samples include: a) the controlled deposition of a good quality carbon film to prevent charging, b) producing digital elemental distribution maps of elements whose X-ray spectral energy peaks partially or completely overlap and c) controlling the plane of fracture through the specimen and ensuring that the resulting topography allows meaningful analysis …

Determination Of Internal Color Of Beef Ribeye Steaks Using Digital Image Analysis, K. Unklesbay, N. Unklesbay, J. Keller
Food Structure
Objective measurements of beef ribeye steaks were made to determine the color distribution throughout their interior after heat processing. Steaks from eight animals were grilled to five degrees of doneness according to traditional internal temperature specifications. Images of the interior of these steaks, as seen by a digital image processing system through red, green, and blue filters were analyzed. The mean, standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis of the histograms of light intensity at all points throughout the surface were determined. The steaks were also analyzed raw and it was determined that little variation in the color of muscle tissue occurred …
