A Computer-Controlled Spray Chill Unit For Red Meat Carcasses, Maynard E. Anderson, James S. Dickson, Mark M. Hulse, Scott T. Drummond, John D. Crouse, Robert T. Marshall
A Computer-Controlled Spray Chill Unit For Red Meat Carcasses, Maynard E. Anderson, James S. Dickson, Mark M. Hulse, Scott T. Drummond, John D. Crouse, Robert T. Marshall
James S. Dickson
A computer controlled and operated spray chill unit which can be used in future research studies for both spray chilling and decontamination of red meat carcasses is described. The unit consists of two parts: (1) an electromechanical system, and (2) a data acquisition/control system. Design concepts for the spray chill system are (1) versatility, (2) rapid change of spray parameters, and (3) computer control of the electromechanical system. An added feature is the computer data collection system for recording information related to each carcass (pH of muscle, surface and internal tissue temperatures, and weights of each half carcass during the …

Development Of The Food Microscopist, D. F. Lewis
Development Of The Food Microscopist, D. F. Lewis
Food Structure
This paper describes the processes through which the food microscopist develops his/her skills. It is based around a framework of Shakespeare's seven ages of man. The first stage is learning about equipment: how it works and how not to abuse it. Next, attention turns to how to prepare samples for examination whilst maintaining the validity of the observations and avoiding damage to the instrument. The "Lover" is the time at which an understanding of the basic structures of food products is gained and the "Soldier " starts to interpret these structures in terms of the performance of the foodstuff. Next, …
