Lactose Crystallization In Spray-Dried Milk Powders Exposed To Isobutanol, Carlos A. Aguilar, Gregory R. Ziegler Jan 1993

Lactose Crystallization In Spray-Dried Milk Powders Exposed To Isobutanol, Carlos A. Aguilar, Gregory R. Ziegler

Food Structure

A study was undertaken to establish whether suspension of dry milk powder in isobutanol and 1-octanol during particle size analysis and preparation for scanning electron microscopy introduced artifacts. The median , volume-based diameter, d[v, 0.5], of spray-dried milk powders containing 27-67% lactose changed over time of exposure to isobutanol. No changes in median diameter were observed when powders were exposed to 1-octanol. Changes in particle si ze resulted from solubilization of amorphous lactose and/or recrystallization of lactose on the particle surface. Both a- and ,6 -lactose were formed during contact with isobutanol as indicated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron …


Microstructure And Fat Extractability In Microcapsules Based On Whey Proteins Or Mixtures Of Whey Proteins And Lactose, D. L. Moreau, M. Rosenberg Jan 1993

Microstructure And Fat Extractability In Microcapsules Based On Whey Proteins Or Mixtures Of Whey Proteins And Lactose, D. L. Moreau, M. Rosenberg

Food Structure

Research was undertaken to determine the microstructure of whey protein/lactose-based , anhydrous milk fat- containing , spray -dried microcapsules and to study the relationship between core extractability and the state of lactose in these microcapsules. Spherical microcapsules nearly free of surface dents were obtained in a ll cases The milkfat was found to be organized in the form of small droplets (0.2-0.8 um) embedded in the capsule wall. The surface topography of the capsul es ex hibited features that may be li nked to removal of mil kfat drop lets from th e outer surfaces at early stages of the …
