The egg yolk undergoes an irreversible gelation process when freezing to –6 °C or lower. In this experiment, liquid egg yolk (LEY) was frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at –18 °C for 150 days. The measurement of pH and colour of LEY were performed. The examination of the rheological and calorimetric properties of samples was also carried out. The results indicated that the pH of LEY changed significantly during frozen storage, increasing from 6.37 ± 0.02 to 6.58 ± 0.03 over five months. The colour of the samples also showed a significant change compared to the fresh sample. The rheological properties of the LEY also changed significantly after 1 day of freezing and during frozen storage, with a clear increasing trend of the yield stress. The results of the calorimetric study showed that freezing and frozen storage did not affect the denaturation temperature, however, the denaturation enthalpy was reduced by about half after five months of frozen storage.

Sourdough fermentation presents several advantageous effects in bread making, like improved nutritional quality and increased shelf life. Three types of experiments aimed to evaluate comparatively the efficiency of two Lactobacillus (Lb.) strains, Lb. plantarum ATCC 8014 and Lb. casei ATCC 393, to metabolize different white wheat flour and soybeans flour combinations to compare their efficiency, together with/without Saccharomyces cerevisiae on sourdough fermentation. For this purpose, the viability, pH, organic acids, and secondary metabolites production were investigated, together with the dynamic rheological properties of the sourdough. During sourdough fermentation, LAB presented higher growth, and the pH decreased significantly from above pH 6 at 0 h to values under 4 at 24 h for each experiment. Co-cultures of LAB and yeast produced a higher quantity of lactic acid than single cultures, especially in sourdough enriched with soy-flour. In general, sourdoughs displayed a stable, elastic-like behavior, and the incorporation of soy-flour conferred higher elasticity in comparison with sourdoughs without soy-flour. The higher elasticity of sourdoughs enriched with soy-flour can be attributed to the fact that through frozen storage, soy proteins have better water holding capacity. In conclusion, sourdough supplemented with 10% soy-flour had better rheological properties, increased lactic, acetic, and citric acid production.

In situ microfibrillar ethylene–octene copolymer (POE)/poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites (MFCs) with different phase morphologies were prepared by controlling the stretching speed and maintaining the weight ratio of POE/PLA of 80/20. Four different stretching speeds were employed to study the effect of PLA microfibrillar morphology on tensile, crystalline, and rheological properties of MFCs. Scanning electron microscopic images revealed that the morphology of PLA phase was strongly influenced by stretching speed. MFCs with highest aspect ratio and smaller diameter of PLA microfibrils were obtained with a stretching speed of 60 rpm. The PLA microfibrils with high aspect ratio had the best reinforcement effect on MFCs. The dynamic rheological properties indicated that the MFCs achieved higher storage modulus and loss modulus at the stretching speed of 60 rpm.
