Rehydration Kinetics Of Green Pea Grains Dried At Different Microwave Powers, Serap Kayisoglu
Rehydration Kinetics Of Green Pea Grains Dried At Different Microwave Powers, Serap Kayisoglu
The Philippine Agricultural Scientist
In this study, both untreated and pre-treated green pea grain samples dried at different microwave output powers (90, 180, and 360 W) were rehydrated at three different temperatures (30ºC, 50ºC, and 70ºC). The rehydration kinetics of dried peas were analyzed using both the Peleg and the first-order kinetic models. Observations revealed that the Peleg model exhibited better agreement with the experimental data. As both microwave power and rehydration temperature increased, the rehydration capacity also increased in both pre-treated and untreated peas. The highest moisture content was observed after rehydration in pre-treated peas dried at 360 W microwave power (2.80 g …

Development Of Active Packaging Films Using Cacao (Theobroma Cacao L.) Pods And Calamondin (Citrus X Microcarpa Bunge) Peels, Julienne Stephanie Fabie-Agapin, Dennis Rojas Marcelino
The Philippine Agricultural Scientist
This paper presents the properties of active films produced using cacao pods and calamondin peels. An active film is a type of packaging material that is made by incorporating the “active” ingredients for preservation on the packaging film rather than a direct application to foods. In this study, the conversion to active films was done by adding essential oils from lemongrass or calamondin peels, which are both known to exhibit antimicrobial properties. There were five film samples prepared for analysis: cacao-calamondin mixture; cacao-calamondin mixture with lemongrass essential oil; cacao-calamondin mixture with calamondin essential oil; cacao-calamondin mixture with encapsulated lemongrass essential …

This study evaluated the safety of Bignay (Antidesma bunius (L.) Spreng cv. ‘Kalabaw’) fruits through a sub-acute oral toxicity test in male and female ICR mice. The evaluation was done through oral gavage of the aqueous fruit sample at 2,000 mg kg-1 body weight dose for 28 d. Results showed that there were no significant changes in feed and water intake of male and female ICR mice as compared to the control groups that received distilled water (p < 0.05). Blood chemistry and hematology values for all mice groups were comparable to the controls and published values. All mice groups also had appreciable body weight gain (10.89% – 21.69%) with zero morbidity and mortality. Lastly, the gross and microscopic examination of the brain, heart, lungs, GI tract, liver, spleen, and kidneys showed normal architecture and histology, suggesting that the fruits did not induce any morphological abnormalities. Results of this study showed that Bignay (cv. ‘Kalabaw’) fruits are safe for consumption with an LD50 of greater than 2,000 mg kg-1 body weight.

Characterization Of Dirt On White-Shelled Table Eggs Through Image Analysis [Research Note], Maria Patricia Azanza, Dominic Panaligan, Bryan Kenneth Desierdo
The Philippine Agricultural Scientist
The study reports the laboratory-scale use of image analysis to categorize dirty white-shelled table eggs. Data generated from image analysis were subjected to statistical analysis and compared with established standards categorizing dirty white-shelled table eggs for washing and sanitation or for use in food processing. The average Quartile 1 (2.49%) and Quartile 3 (9.28%) values of percent surface dirt were found to be proximate to quality standard guidelines values of ≤ 3.12% and < 10% from USDA (2000) and PNS (2005), respectively. These limits were recommended as possible guidelines for classifying eggs into those that are acceptable as table eggs, acceptable for processing with washing and sanitation, and unacceptable for food use.

Hypertension is a leading cause of disease burden in developing countries. Leading factors are obesity, increased cholesterol levels, and long-term oxidative stress. Since commercially available drugs for cardiovascular diseases such as antioxidants and ACE receptor blockers are expensive, preventive cheaper alternatives derived from foods are sought after. Lakatan, one of the most abundant and cheap food sources in the Philippines has been proven to have antioxidant and antihypertensive properties but studies exploring the proteins and bioactive peptides responsible for its health benefits are very limited. In this study, proteins from Lakatan (Musa acuminata Colla) have been studied to understand …
Evaluation Of The Inactivation Kinetics Of Cronobacter Sakazakii In Infant Formula Treated By Radio Frequency Dielectric Heating And Uvc Light [Research Note], Yun Deng, Yuwei Wu, Yuanrong Zheng, Danfeng Wang, Zhenmin Liu
Evaluation Of The Inactivation Kinetics Of Cronobacter Sakazakii In Infant Formula Treated By Radio Frequency Dielectric Heating And Uvc Light [Research Note], Yun Deng, Yuwei Wu, Yuanrong Zheng, Danfeng Wang, Zhenmin Liu
The Philippine Agricultural Scientist
We studied the inactivation kinetics of Cronobacter sakazakii (CS) in infant formula subjected to radio frequency dielectric heating (RF) alone or sequential RF-UVC irradiation for 30 min. We used one linear model and two nonlinear models to fit the data and compared the results. Our findings revealed that CS was more susceptible to the combined treatment than to RF alone at the same temperature and that inactivation rate increased with increasing temperature. The sequential RF (90°C, 5 min) - UVC (25 min) treatment was the most effective at inactivating CS. The survival curves of CS were non-linear. …

The Philippine Agricultural Scientist
Basi, a traditional sugarcane wine of the Philippines, was studied. Here, we used molecular- and cultural-based methods to isolate, identify and characterize acid-producing bacteria, specifically acetic and lactic acid bacteria, from basi. Acid producers were focused on owing to the rapid spoilage of basi via acidification with air exposure. Two strains each of acetic and lactic acid bacteria were isolated. DNA was extracted from these isolates. PCR-amplified DNA products were subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The sequences of the isolates were then aligned with BLAST database sequences and found to have high similarities to Acetobacter malorum (99%), …
