El objetivo del trabajo ha consistido en la caracterización del proceso de gelificación térmica de dispersiones de albumen de huevo mediante ensayos viscoelásticos dinámicos. Las variables estudiadas han sido el tiempo de ...

Low-acyl gellan gum fluid gels were obtained using two different gel-promoting cations under the same processing conditions, and their rheological properties were investigated. For that reason, stress and frequency sweep ...

t: Nanoemulgels are novel formulations of great interest for their use as dual-release systems and as fat substitutes in foods. Lemon essential oil, with a large number of benefits due to its antimicrobial, antifungal, ...

Drying kinetics of olive stone and olive-tree pruning, two important biomasses from olive culture, was experimentally assessed at six different temperatures (from 343 K to 393 K) and four sample thicknesses (from 15 to ...

The influence of EO/BO block copolymer surfactant concentration in the range (1–5% (m/m)) and emulsification time on the emulsion stability and droplet size distribution of bitter fennel essential oil-in-water emulsions ...

The agro-food industry produces huge amounts of wastes and by-products with high levels of carbohydrates and proteins, basic food groups that, properly treated, can be employed for the development of bioplastics. These ...

Biological recognition sites are very useful for biomedical purposes and, more specifically, for polymeric scaffolds. However, synthetic polymers are not capable of providing specific biological recognition sites. To solve ...

The effect of pH (3.5 e 6) and polysaccharide concentration (0 e 0.5 wt%) on the linear viscoelastic behaviour of egg yolk/ k -Carrageenan (EY/ k C) mixtures in aqueous solution was studied by using Small Amplitude ...

BACKGROUND: The use of superabsorbent materials in horticulture has spread recently. These materials, which can retain water and release it as crops need it, have strong advantages such as the efficient use of water in ...

Protein-based bioplastics may be regarded as novel biopolymer matrices based on renewable natural components. Due to technological, economic and environmental benefits, these biopolymer matrices are highly attractive for ...
