Summary The chemical characterization of the pulp, peel and seeds of cocona (Solanum sessiliflorum Dunal) was determined. In artisanal fruit processing, 26.3% of peel and 9.7% of seeds were obtained. The seeds showed a high potential for the development of value-added products because of their dry matter contents (23.46%) as follows: carbohydrate (69.37% dry basis (d.b.)), nitrogen (3.18 g/100 g of seed d.b.), K (0.023 g/100 g of seed d.b.), Fe (0.0185 g/100 g of seed d.b.) and dietary fiber (21.27 g/100 g of seed d.b.). The carbohydrate, dietary fibre and mineral contents of the pulp, peel and seeds also highlighted the agroindustrial potential of the fruit in that these constituents could be used to develop functional foods, food additives, preparations for functional diets and dietary supplements.

Оценено влияние фруктовых пищевых добавок «Яблочная» и «Грушевая», полученных из вторичных ресурсов переработки фруктов, на формы связи воды в тесте из пшеничной муки. Добавки вносили в образцы теста из пшеничной муки 1-го сорта в количестве 6, 8 и 10% к массе муки. Измерение ядерно-магнитных релаксационных характеристик образцов теста осуществляли на ЯМР-анализаторе АМВ-1006М при температуре 23°С. Установлено, что внесение в образцы теста добавки «Яблочная» или «Грушевая» в количестве 10% к массе муки позволяет повысить содержание прочносвязанной воды в тесте на 6,5 или 4,9% соответственно, что объясняется более высоким содержанием в добавке «Яблочная» по сравнению с добавкой «Грушевая» пектина (3,7% против 2,1%), в значительной степени проявляющего водоудерживающую способность. Результаты, полученные с применением метода ЯМР, согласуются с данными, полученными при исследовании влияния указанных пищевых добавок на водопоглотительную способность теста. Повышение в тесте содержания воды, находящейся в прочносвязанном состоянии, позволит при дальнейшей выпечке тестовых заготовок снизить упек хлебобулочного изделия и, следовательно, увеличить его выход. The influence of fruit food additives «Apple» and «Pear», obtained from secondary resources of fruit processing, on the forms of water connection in the wheat flour dough was evaluated. Additives are added to the test samples from wheat flour of the 1st grade in the amount of 6, 8 and 10% by weight of flour. Measurement of the nuclear magnetic relaxation characteristics of dough samples was performed using an NMR-analyzer AMV-1006M at a temperature of 23°C. It was found that introduction additives «Apple» or «Pear» to the dough samples in an amount of 10% by weight of flour allows increasing the content of strongly bound water in the dough by 6,5 or 4,9% respectively, which is explained by the higher content in additive the «Apple» compared to the additive «Pear» of pectin (3,7% vs. 2,1%), largely showing water-retaining ability. The results obtained using the NMR method are consistent with the data obtained in the study of the effect of these food additives on the water absorption capacity of the dough. Increasing in the dough the content of water, which is in a strongly bound state, will allow for further baking of dough blanks to reduce baking loss and, consequently, increase yield of products.

Background : flavor enhancing food additives are often added as a flavor enhancer known as MSG that exceed the dose . if the addition of the additive is often done to cause dependence , so it will pose a health hazard to the consumer , such as stomach disorders, allergies , hypertension , asthma , cancer , diabetes , and lower intelligence. Most housewives do not know the information would adversely affect health. Objective : This study aims to describe the level of knowledge of the use of monosodium glutamate ( MSG ) housewife in backwoods village sauleya timbuseng Polongbangkeng northern districts Kab.Takalar. Methods : This is a descriptive study. samples are all housewives in the hamlet village sauleya timbuseng Polongbangkeng northern districts Kab. Takalar , who meet the criteria as much as 49 people . Data on the use MSG knowledge samples obtained by the interview method which uses a questionnaire instrument.the data presented in the from of frequency distribution graphic and narrative. Result : Results of research on the use of knowledge MSG housewives generally less category as many as 25 ( 51.0 % ) , use of MSG housewives generally can not be tolerated as many as 36 ( 73.5 % ). Conclusion : Knowledge of the use of MSG housewife classified as less and use MSG can not be tolerated.

Spreads are used widely for making the fast foods more amazing and tasty. Varieties and cross combinations of ingredients are used to make many flavours of fast foods. Different restaurants prepare their signature spreads for attracting people but this can cause opposite result if not prepared using high quality raw materials and proper hygienic conditions are not maintained. Current study was conducted on ten different types of spreads (pesto, cilantro, queso, tomato sauce, peanut butter, honey, mustard, cream cheese, chocolate sauce and butter) which are used by the local restaurants in Dhaka city, Bangladesh. Almost all the samples (nine out of ten) harbored total viable bacteria exceeding the standard limit. Four spread samples showed high fungal count (102 cfu/gm). Four samples showed to be positive (˃101/ml recommended acceptable count) for Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. which indicates that these spread cannot be recommended for public consumption. Among all the samples examined, only chocolate sauce showed acceptable result without the presence of coliforms, Staphylococcus spp. and Pseudomonas spp. This finding suggests proper maintenance of sanitation in spread preparation and selling area. A proper guidelines and monitoring can help keep up the quality of food additives. Stamford Journal of Microbiology, Vol.10 (1) 2020: 16-19
