Impacts Of Feedstock And Parboiling Conditions On Quality Characteristics Of Parboiled Rice, Kanokporn Leethanapanich
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Parboiling involves soaking, steaming, and drying, and is known to improve head rice yield (HRY), remove chalkiness, and retain nutrients. Because of an increasing number of rice cultivars developed, commingling of rice may happen during harvesting, distributing, or storage. Using commingled rice with a wide range of gelatinization temperatures (To) as a feedstock may cause inconsistent parboiled rice products. Therefore, this study was aimed at investigating the effect of soaking temperature and steaming duration on the quality of parboiled, commingled rice. Rough rice samples of individual or commingled rice cultivars with different To ranges were soaked at different temperatures (25, …

Composition Of Four Selected Arkansas-Grown Non-Gmo Soybean Cultivars And The Development Of High Protein Beverage Using A Selected Soybean Protein Hydrolysate, Quyen Tran Phuong Nguyen
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Protein beverages made with non-genetically modified (non-GM) ingredients have been in demand due to the increasing consumers’ interest in healthy eating habit. Beverages formulated with non-GM soy protein are rare in the United States market since 93% soybeans planted in U.S (2013) are labeled as GM. This study aimed to develop protein hydrolysate beverages using one cultivar among the four Arkansas grown non-GM soybean cultivars including Osage, R95-1705, R08-4004 and R05-4969. R08-4004 was selected since it had the highest amounts of the three branched amino acids including Phenylalanine (51.4 mg/g), Leucine (74.9 mg/g), and Isoleucine (49.7 mg/g) with lowest amount …

Microbial Safety, Shelf Life Stability, Quality Preservation, And Consumer Acceptance Of Vacuum-Infused, Irradiated Chicken Breast Meat Treated With Natural Plant Extracts And Organic Acids, Kenneth Franklin Over
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Contamination of poultry products with food borne pathogens is a consistently recurring problem in the United States and the world. Recalls associated with chicken contamination are responsible for considerable economic losses to the poultry industry. Many decontamination steps are currently in place to reduce the likelihood of contaminated products reaching the consumer, but despite these safeguards, contamination events are still uncomfortably frequent. Irradiation is a safe and effective means of ensuring the safety of both ready-to-cook and ready-to-eat poultry but is not utilized in the United States. This is due, in part, to certain irradiation dose-dependent quality characteristic defects associated …

A Simulation Platform For Accurate Prediction Of In-Bin Drying And Storage Of Rough Rice, Houmin Zhong
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Natural air (NA), in-bin drying and storage of rough rice generally maintains high grain quality, but the associated slow movement and occasional stagnation of the drying front during the process may result in problems of rice quality reduction, mold growth, and mycotoxin development, especially for rough rice in the top layers of the bin. Using modeling techniques to simulate in-bin rough rice drying in typically-encountered field scenarios may provide a tool for rapidly predicting the grain condition as drying progresses. The objectives for this study were to (1) investigate accurate models for predicting equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of rough rice …

Due to the high-cost and non-renewable materials for producing polyurethane foam, the lignin of rice as raw material, partially substituting phenol, was to synthetize lignin polyurethane foam. Firstly, the lignin was extracted from rice through ethyl alcohol. Then, the lignin was modified by epoxy chloropropane to increase the number of hydroxyl groups. The modified lignin was readily soluble in the polyether polyol, and could replace part of polyether polyol to mix with isocyanate and other additives developing resource-efficient polyurethane foam. This study not only provides the feasible solution of producing lignin polyurethane foam, but also makes effective use of agricultural …

Food and Machinery
Norfloxacin, ofloxacin and enorfloxacin, the most common used quinolones in aquaculture, were evaluated for the effects on hemolymph enzymes of Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis. The hemolymphs were collected at regular time for detection of phenoloxidase(PO), peroxidase(POD), alkaline phosphatase(ALP), lysozyme(LSZ), superoxide dismutase(SOD), glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase(AST) and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase(ALT) after Chinese mitten crab were injected intramuscularly with quinolones at concentration of 5 μg/kg. The results showed that activity of PO, POD, ALP, LSZ and SOD increased respectively(P<0.05), and the effect of enorfloxacin experimental group was very obvious(P<0.01), and decreased to the normal levels as the control group at 96 h. The activity of AST and ALT after quinolones injection showed significantly lower during the experimental period(P<0.05). These results indicated that quinolones did not result in inhibition on hemolymph immune enzyme and damage on viscera organs. Moreover, quinolones showed immune enhancement on at concentration of 5 μg/kg.
