The behavior of strawberry purees submitted to processes of mild pasteurization (75 °C — 15 s) and severe pasteurization (90 °C — 20 s), using as references fresh and hot-filled purees, was studied. Purees thermally treated were stored at +3 °C during 2 months. Pectin methylesterase activity, rheological behavior, and taste quality were analyzed. The results showed how the pectin methylesterase activity of strawberry puree (0.385nanokatal/mL) was reduced to 25.5% by the mild heat treatment, to 5.4% by the severe one and to undetectable levels in the hot-filled puree. A significant increase in the viscosity was detected as a consequence of the severe thermal treatments, although in any case it decreased with storage time. Taste quality, evaluated by simple ranking tests of samples, was superior in the fresh puree, without significant differences among the three samples thermally treated. The assessors pointed out the greater aromatic intensity of the fresh puree and the lack of cooked flavors in all samples. All treated samples maintained their sensory quality during 2 months of storage at 3 °C. The taste quality of hot-filled purees stored 1 or 2 months at room temperature (21 °C) was significantly lower than the respective chilled samples. From this point of view, the hot-filled treatment and chilling storage will be recommended for this product.

Gastropods are one of the important sea-foods rich in protein, glycogen, minerals, and low-fat content. The proximate composition such as protein, carbohydrate, and lipid content of the smoked meat of C. ramosus and V. cochlidium was 11.84, 4.28, 2.88, and 8.96, 4.74, 3.04 % respectively.The moisture content of both the smoked meat was gradually increased from 2.2 -12.6% during storage at room temperature. The spoilage indicators such as Free Fatty Acids, TMA – N (Trimethylamine – Nitrogen), and TVB – N (Total Volatile Base- Nitrogen) values were found to be increased as storage time increased. The increasing TPC (Total Plate Count) and TFC (Total Fungal Count) and organoleptic characteristics were also increasing in both smoked meat during increased storage. This study indicated that the quality of C. ramosus and V. cochlidium smoked meat were found to be good and safe for human consumption even after 180 days of storage.

A recipe of shrimp cracker (a type of crispy biscuit) enriched with shrimp shell protein was developed from underutilized shrimp shell wastes and the effects of different amount of shrimp shell powders on the quality and shelf life of the products were studied. Shrimp industry wastes (head, appendages, carapaces, and shell) were thoroughly washed, dried in hot air oven at 60°C for 24 h and ground by a blender. Fine shrimp shell powder thus obtained was used for making shrimp crackers. Hydrolyzed vegetable oil, was beaten by hand and other ingredients such as powder milk, sugar, oil, baking powder, flour and vanilla essence were mixed to make a dough. Various levels of shrimp shell powder (5%, 10%, and 20%) were mixed to the dough to enrich with shrimp protein. The dough was kept flatted in a tray, cut into pieces of different shape by dies and put into the oven at 100°C for 8 minutes. Increasing the quantity of shrimp shell powder in shrimp crackers increased the protein content but the quality in terms of taste, color and flavor was slightly decreased. Using of 10% shrimp shell powder obtained the best quality shrimp crackers, in terms of both protein enrichment and sensory quality. Quality of shrimp crackers was tested by both subjective and objective methods. Products made with 10% shrimp shell powder had an acceptable bacterial load in refrigeration up to 45 days but in room temperature up to 30 days. Low storage quality in room temperature might be due to inadequate packaging in the laboratory condition. This research revealed that high quality protein fortified shrimp crackers could be manufactured from unutilized shrimp shell wastes.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbau.v10i2.14930 J.

The experiment was conducted to find out the effect of salt and storage temperature on the physico-chemical properties of beef nugget. For this purpose nugget samples were divided into two parts; one is called fresh nugget and another is preserved nugget at different temperatures. Then the fresh samples as well as the preserved samples were divided into four subdivisions. Then these are treated with different salt levels (0, 1.5, 3 and 5% salt level). The preserved samples were stored at 4oC and -20oC. Samples preserved at 4oC were stored in the refrigerator for 21 days and were analyzed on 7th day, 14th day and 21th day and samples preserved at -20oC were stored in the refrigerator for 60 days and were analyzed on 15th day, 30th day, 45th day and 60th day of preservation. Dry matter and Ash content of all the samples increased significantly (P<0.01) with the advancement of storage time and salt level. CP% of fresh samples was 22.31, 20.55, 20.13 and 20.55 at 0, 1.5, 3 and 5% salt concentration. CP, DM, Ash and Fat also varied among the samples significantly (P<0.01). Highly significant difference is observed in preserved samples than in fresh samples at different salt levels. Fresh nugget treated with 1.5% salt found to be more acceptable in terms of sensory evaluation. So we recommend fresh nugget to be best for consumption.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v24i1-2.19280 Progress. Agric. 24(1&2): 149 - 158, 2013

<p>The objective of the experiment study was to determine the effect of canary shell liquid smoke on the chemical, physical and sensory qualities of beef stored at room temperature. Beef samples were dipped in liquid smoke solution<br />with the concentration of 0, 4, 8, and 12% (v/v) during 15 minutes and then stored for 0,2, and 4 days at room temperature. Each treatment was carried out three times and the variables measured were water, phenol and acid<br />content, pH, water-holding capacity, cooking loss and sensory properties of samples. Data on chemical and physical qualities were analyzed using analysis of variance (Completely Randomized Design/CRD) with factorial 4x3. The<br />sensory properties were analyzed by a non parametric h-test. The results showed that liquid smoke concentration up to 12% significantly (p&lt;0.05) increased water holding capacity and cooking loss of samples. Storage time up to four days<br />significantly (p&lt;0.05) increased its pH value, cooking loss, whereas water-holding capacity was decreased. The meat sensory test showed that flavor and slimming rate were affected significantly (p&lt;0.05) by liquid smoke. There was no<br />interaction between liquid smoke concentration and storage time. In conclusion, the addition of liquid smoke up to 12% increased phenol and acid content, while the physical quality of meat has decreased. Quality of beef stored up to 4 days<br />showed a decreased of quality such as pH, water-holding capacity, cooking loss, and sensory meat.</p><p><br />(Keywords: Canary shell, Liquid smoke, Storage time, Quality of beef)<br /><br /></p>

ABSTRACTThree types of metastable modulations in Ru-based superconductor RuSr2Gd1.4Ce0.6Cu2O10-δ are observed by electron diffraction at room temperature and reported in this paper. The modulations are sensitive to the irradiation of the electron beam and the sample storage time. Having the tetragonal symmetry (I4/mmm) with a=0.384nm, c=2.864nm, the structure of RuSr2Gd1.4Ce0.6Cu2O10-δ?resembles that of YBa2Cu3O7-δ by inserting a fluorite type Gd1.4Ce0.6O2 layer instead of the Y layer and Ru ions residing in the Cu(1) site. In this compound, superconductivity is confined to the CuO2 layer while magnetism stems from the RuO2 layer. The metastable modulations display the interaction between the two layers from the structural point of view. The results suggest that although, superconductivity and magnetism are decoupled from each other in the unconventional superconductor, the effect may be limited by metastable lattice modulation.
