The process of ice formation in the pericarp of black currant depends on the pomological variety, the degree of ripeness of the fruit, and the method of freezing. During the slow and fast freezing of black currant, four ranges of fruit cooling temperatures are distinguished: 1) from the temperature of the fruit to the temperature of initiation of ice formation; 2) from the temperature of the front (initiation) of ice formation to the lowest possible temperature of the fetal mesocarp; 3) from the lowest possible temperature of the mesocarp to the lowest temperature of the fetal endocarp; 4) from the lowest possible endocarp temperature to fetal freezing temperature. Fast freezing boosts cooling, freezing and freezing from 37 min. (slow) up to 5.6 min. due to a halving of the temperature of initiation of ice formation, an increase of 1.3 times in the rate of heat extraction and an increase in the freezing temperature from –22...–24 °С (slow) to –20.8 °С. It is scientifically substantiated that the temperatures of freezing fruits significantly change the general existing recommendations (not higher than –18 °С) regarding the storage conditions of black currant fruits: with quick freezing, not higher than –21 °С, with slow freezing, not higher than –24 °С. The formation of the properties of black currant occurs during the growing season under various agro-climatic conditions and affects the parameters of ice formation indicators. The marketable condition, quality and organoleptic characteristics of black currant fruits depend on the method of freezing. The advantages of fast freezing of black currant fruits in a quick-freezing chamber with forced air circulation at a speed of 1.5–2.5 m/s at a temperature of –30...–32 °С in comparison with slow freezing in freezers at a temperature of –20 have been established. ..– 22 °С.

The Impact

The benefits of natural honeybee products (e.g., honey, royal jelly, beeswax, propolis, beevenom and pollen) to the immune system are remarkable, and many of them are involved in the induction of antibody production, maturation of immune cells and stimulation of the immune system. The type of plants in the geographical area, climatic conditions and production method have a significantly influence on the nutritional quality of honey. However, this variability can influence consumer liking by the sensory attributes of the product. The aim of this work was to compare the most popular honeys from Poland in terms of nutritional value, organoleptic properties and antioxidant activity. In the study, five varieties of honey (honeydew, forest, buckwheat, linden and dandelion) from conventional and organic production methods were tested. The nutritional characteristics of honey samples included acidity, content of water, sugars, vitamin C, HMF and phenolics (total and flavonoids), while honey color, taste, aroma and consistency were investigated in the organoleptic characteristics. The antioxidant activity was determined in water- and ethanol-soluble honey extracts using DPPH and ORAC tests. The results showed that organoleptic and nutritional characteristics of popular Polish honeys differ significantly in relation to plant source and production method. The significant effect of honey variety on the content of HMF, saccharose and phenolics, as well as acidity and antioxidant capacity were noted. The impact of variety and variety × production method interaction was significant in the case of the content of vitamin C, glucose and fructose. A visible difference of buckwheat and forest honeys from other samples was observed. The highest content of total phenolics with antioxidant activity based on the SET mechanism was found in buckwheat honeys, while forest honeys were richer in flavonoids.

Raw Honey

Romania is known among the main European honey producers, due to the variety of landforms as well as the diversity of the flora. Thirty-four honey samples of the acacia, linden and multifloral types, produced in eastern Romania and collected during 2013–2018, were physico-chemically analyzed using methods provided by the national and EU standards. The results of water-insoluble solids, color and refractive index were found to be 0.023–0.131%, 0.3–76.4 mm Pfund and 1.485–1.499, respectively. The moisture content ranged between 15.20% and 20.77%, solid substances content ranged between 79.23% and 84.80% and total soluble substances content ranged between 77.83 °Brix and 83.26 °Brix. The obtained values of specific gravity were from 1.414 to 1.450 g/cm3, pH ranged from 3.673 to 5.503 and free acidity ranged between 2.4 meq and 50 meq kg−1. The ash content and the electrical conductivity varied between 0.030 and 0.543% and 130 and 679 µS cm−1, respectively. Pearsonʹs correlation analysis showed an intense association of the ash content with electrical conductivity (r = 0.81). Our findings reveal the qualitative level of Romanian honey and the variation in quality parameters due to factors such as geographical region, climatic conditions, botanical origin and handling or storage conditions.

Разработаны квасы брожения с использованием сухих экстрактов ягод малины, плодов черной смородины и облепихи. Исследованы экстракты плодов облепихи, ягод малины и черной смородины, полученные методом импульсно-вакуумной сушки (ООО «Вистерра», Бийск). Квасы готовили по промышленной технологии на концентрате квасного сусла. Экстракты добавляли в квас до начала брожения в дозировке от 2 до 8%. Образцы квасов с использованием экстрактов обладали приятным послевкусием, слабовыраженным плодовым ароматом. Полученные квасы характеризует высокое содержание аскорбиновой кислоты, мг/100 г, и полифенольных веществ, мг/100 мл, соответственно: контроль – менее 0,1 и 42,6; с добавлением экстракта малины 2,7 и 58,7; облепихи 6,9 и 47,7; черной смородины 4,6 и 66,2. Определено, что потребление одного стакана (200 мл) свежеприготовленного кваса с плодовым (ягодным) экстрактом позволяет удовлетворить от 100 до 150% суточной потребности в флавоноидах (85 мг/сут) и фенолокислотах (10 мг/сут), преобладающих в составе полифенольных веществ. С учетом уточненных норм МР 2.3.1.2432-08 определено, что квасы с экстрактами облепихи и смородины способны удовлетворить 10–15% физиологической потребности в витамине С взрослых и 15–45% – детей разных возрастных групп. Установлено, что добавление 6% плодово-ягодного экстракта к купажу перед брожением дает возможность вырабатывать квасы стандартного качества с оригинальными органолептическими характеристиками и повышенной пищевой ценностью. The kvasses of fermentation using dry extracts of raspberries, black currant and sea buckthorn have been developed. Extracts of sea buckthorn fruits, raspberries and black currants obtained by pulse-vacuum drying in LLC «Visterra» (Biysk) were studied. Kvasses was prepared according to industrial technology on a concentrate of kvass wort. The extracts were added to the kvass before fermentation in a dosage of from 2 to 8%. Samples of kvasses using extracts had a pleasant aftertaste, slightly pronounced fruit aroma. The resulting kvasses is characterized by a high content of ascorbic acid, mg/100 g, and polyphenolic substances, mg/100 ml, respectively: control – less than 0,1 and 42,6; with the addition of raspberry extract 2,7 and 58,7; sea buckthorn 6,9 and 47,7; black currant 4,6 and 66,2. It was determined that the consumption of one glass (200 ml) of freshly prepared kvass with fruit (berry) extract can satisfy from 100 to 150% of the daily need for flavonoids (85 mg/day) and phenolic acids (10 mg/day), which are predominant in the composition of polyphenolic substances. Taking into account the recommendations of MR 2.3.1.2432-08, it was found that kvasses with buckthorn and currant extracts can meet 10–15% of the physiological need for vitamin C in adults and 15–45% in children of different age groups. It was found that the addition of 6% fruit and berry extract to the blend before fermentation makes it possible to produce kvasses of standard quality with original organoleptic characteristics and increased nutritional value.

In this study, the microstructural evolution of a non-reactive porous model food (sponge cake) during freezing was investigated. Sponge cake samples were frozen at two different rates: slow freezing (0.3 °C min−1) and fast freezing (17.2 °C min−1). Synchrotron X-ray microtomography (µ-CT) and cryo-scanning electron microscopy (Cryo-SEM) were used to visualize and analyze the microstructure features. The samples were scanned before and after freezing using a specific thermostated cell (CellStat) combined with the synchrotron beamline. Cryo-SEM and 3D µ-CT image visualization allowed a qualitative analysis of the ice formation and location in the porous structure. An image analysis method based on grey level was used to segment the three phases of the frozen samples: air, ice and starch. Volume fractions of each phase, ice local thickness and shape characterization were determined and discussed according to the freezing rates.

Климатические условия на большей части территории Российской Федерации не позволяют выращивать виноград в открытом грунте, поэтому его завозят из южных районов страны. Производство виноградных напитков обычно сосредоточено в местах выращивания винограда, так как доставка готовой продукции в северные регионы сопряжена со значительными финансовыми затратами. В Республике Дагестан выращивают около 30% винограда в масштабах всей страны, а площадь плодоносящих виноградников занимает более 20 тыс. га. Возникла необходимость переработать виноград таким образом, чтобы полуфабрикат для изготовления напитков выдерживал длительные сроки хранения и транспортировку, отличался высоким качеством и имел небольшую массу. Разработана технология получения виноградных криопорошков, которые можно использовать в качестве пищевых добавок, для изготовления восстановленных соков и напитков. Целью исследования было создание инновационной технологии производства криопорошков для получения безалкогольных напитков. Объектом исследования стал виноград дагестанских технических, столовых и изюмных сортов. Алгоритм получения криопорошков соответствовал предложенной автором схеме: доставка винограда, отделение гребней, инспекция, мойка, дробление, замораживание жидким азотом, обезвоживание в вакуумной СВЧ-установке, криоизмельчение и фасовка. При выполнении работы определяли качественный состав сырья и криопорошков с использованием аналитических приборов и лабораторного оборудования кафедры технологии продуктов питания и учреждений Дагестанского научного Центра РАН. Определен химический состав криопорошков, полученных из винограда, выращенного в горно-долинной зоне Дагестана. Приведены физико-химические показатели напитка из криопорошка винограда. Органолептические показатели изготовленных виноградных напитков подтвердили их высокие качественные показатели. Climatic conditions in most of the Russian Federation do not allow growing grapes in the open field, therefore they are imported from the southern regions of the country. The production of grape drinks is usually concentrated in places where grapes are grown, since the delivery of finished products to the northern regions is associated with significant financial costs. Winegrowers of the Republic of Dagestan grow about 30% of grapes throughout the country, and the area of fruit-bearing vineyards occupies more than 20 thousand hectares. There was a problem to process grapes in such a way that the semi-finished product for the production of drinks withstands long storage and transportation periods, is of high quality and has a small weight. A technology has been developed for producing grape cryopowders, which can be used as food additives, for the production of reconstituted juices and drinks. The aim of the study was to create an innovative technology for the production of cryopowders for the production of soft drinks. The objects of the study were Dagestan common and raisin grapes. The algorithm for obtaining cryopowders corresponded to the scheme proposed by the author: delivery of grapes, separation of ridges, inspection, washing, crushing, freezing with liquid nitrogen, dehydration in a vacuum microwave unit, cryo-grinding and packaging. When performing the work, the qualitative composition of raw materials and cryopowders was determined using analytical instruments and laboratory equipment of the Department of Food Technology and institutions of the Dagestan Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The chemical composition of cryopowders obtained from grapes grown in the mountain-valley zone of Dagestan has been determined. The physical and chemical parameters of a wine drink made from grape cryopowder are given. The organoleptic characteristics of the produced wine drinks confirmed their high quality indicators.

From the results of four factorial experiments on the deep-freezing of bull spermatozoa: (1) Revival rates of semen treated with lecithin followed by cooling to 5�C with dilution just before freezing did not differ significantly from samples diluted at 30�C soon after collection of the ejaculate. Aging the spermatozoa at 5�C for 6 hr before freezing was beneficial and a slow freezing rate of O� 5 to 1 degC fall per minute to -15�C followed by 3 degC fall below this temperature gave better results than faster rates. Time of storage at 5�C and freezing rate interacted, as fast freezing was much better tolerated by spermatozoa which had been aged at 5�C for 6 or 18 hr.

Rising global demand for natural products whose production is harmless to the environment has stimulated the development of natural cosmetics and, within this category, organics (95% organic raw materials). The image of environmentally friendly production is one of the strongest attractions of organic products. Lip balm is a cosmetic product similar to lipstick whose purpose is to prevent lip dryness and protect against adverse environmental factors. The product's characteristics are: resistance to temperature variations, pleasant flavor, innocuousness, smoothness during application, adherence and easy intentional removal. This work involved the development of a lip balm formulated with certified organic raw materials and the execution of stability tests: fusion point determination, evaluation of organoleptic characteristics (color, odor and appearance) and functionality evaluation (spreadability test). The formulation selected after the Preliminary Stability Test was submitted to the Normal Stability Test under the following storage conditions (temperature): Room Temperature (22.0 ± 3.0 ºC), Oven (40.0 ± 2.0 ºC) and Refrigerator (5.0 ± 1.0 ºC), for 90 days. Under the Refrigerator and Room Temperature conditions, spreadability proved adequate, but the surface presented white spots, characterizing the fat bloom, a phenomenon involving the recrystallization of cocoa butter. Storage at 40.0 ± 2.0 ºC (Oven) caused loss of functionality according to the spreadability test, in addition to changes in color, although the aspect was uniform since the fat bloom was not observed (white spots on the surface). The odor remained stable under all conditions as did the melting point, which had a mean of 72.9 ± 1.7 ºC throughout the course of stability testing (90 days).

Experimental results on hydrate- and ice-formation conditions in the pores of sandy sediments that have undergone temperature cycles are presented. Thermodynamic parameters of gas hydrate and ice formation in porous space were determined for CH4 and CO2 saturated sandy sediments. The experiments indicate that temperature and freezing cycles affect the thermodynamics of hydrate and water–ice in gas-saturated sediments. Temperature cycles increased the hydrate accumulation in the pore space of sediments and reduce the freezing temperature of the remaining pore water. PACS Nos.: 91.60Hg, 92.40Sn

1. Ox sternomandibularis muscle was ‘slow-frozen’ by placing it in air at −22° or ‘fast-frozen’ by immersion in liquid air or acetone–solid carbon dioxide. In all cases muscles were frozen pre-rigor. Changes in length, pH and the concentrations of Pi, creatine phosphate, hexose monophosphate (glucose 1-phosphate+glucose 6-phosphate+fructose 6-phosphate), fructose diphosphate (fructose 1,6-diphosphate+½ triose phosphate), lactate, ATP, ADP, AMP and NAD+ during freezing and during subsequent thawing were determined. In addition some measurements were made of the changes in α-glycerophosphate, 3-phosphoglycerate, 2-phosphoglycerate, phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate concentrations during slow freezing. 2. Appreciable shortening and marked changes in chemical composition took place during slow freezing but not during fast freezing. 3. During slow freezing the hexose monophosphate concentration fell and fructose 1,6-diphosphate and triose phosphate increased substantially. Increases also took place in 3-phosphoglycerate, 2-phosphoglycerate and phosphoenolpyruvate, but not in pyruvate. 4. On thawing, most of the chemical changes were similar to those in unfrozen muscle post mortem, but took place much more rapidly; loss of NAD+ was particularly rapid. Fast-frozen muscle metabolized at a faster rate on thawing than did slow-frozen muscle. 5. The overall changes in length during freezing and thawing were about the same in slow-frozen as in fast-frozen muscle.
