Pelargonidin 3-glucoside (pgd 3-glu), pelargonidin 3-sophoroside (pgd 3-soph),
and pelargonidin 3-sophoroside 5-glucoside acylated with cinnamic and malonic acids
(acyl-pgd 3-soph 5-glu) were extracted from strawberries (Fragaria anannassa cv,
Totem), nasturtium flowers (Tropaeolum majus), and radish peel (Raphanus sativus L.
cv, fuego), respectively. Their stability was studied in natural and model...
Alpha acids are found in the lupulin glands of hops cones. These acids have no bitterness of their own, but can be isomerized and subsequently hydrogenated to form bitter iso-α-acids and tetrahydroiso-α-acids respectively. Current literature values for the detection thresholds of iso-α-acid and tetrahydroiso-α-acid in lager beer have been reported...
The free fatty acids of Cheddar cheese are important components
in the over-all flavor and aroma of the cheese. Although the
more volatile fatty acids probably contribute most, there is reason
to believe that the higher fatty acids may contribute, to some extent,
in imparting typical flavor characteristics. Before the...
Static ultra-high pressure (200, 270, and 340 MPa) and sinusoidal and
step-pressure (0-270 MPa) pulses were compared by determining their effects on
bacteria and yeast survival counts. Samples were commercial pineapple chunks
used as is and fresh cut pineapple and pineapple juice inoculated with
Saccharomyces cerevisiae 2407-1a. Surviving bacteria and...
Biochemical properties, functional properties, and market potential of Pacific whiting (PW) fish sauce were investigated. Biochemical properties of fish sauce made from whole fish (W) and a mixture (1:1) of whole fish and surimi byproducts (WB) were compared. Market potential was evaluated through phone interviews and consumer panelists. Proteolysis was...
Beer, nonfat dry milk, fried bacon and microwave baked fish were
treated under simulated gastric and extreme nitrosation conditions to
estimate their capacity for generation of endogenously formed
N-nitrosamines. The level of nitrosamines in beer increased from 0.1
ppb N-nitrosodimethylamine to 0.4 ppb N-nitrosodimethylamine (p < 0.05) under simulated gastric...
Wines were made from Pinot Noir and White Riesling grapes
which had received field application rates of 2 and 4 lb./acre of the
experimental bird repellent Mesurol (methiocarb or 3, 5 dimethyl-
4(methylthio)phenylmethylcarbamate). In addition, Pinot Noir must
and press juice and White Riesling press juice were fortified with
15...
Dimethylamine (DMA), in addition to the alkaloids hordenine
and gramine, has been suggested as a potential precursor of nitrosodimethylamine
(NDMA) in malt. Analytical procedures were adopted
and applied to extract and quantify DMA from malt, green malt,
malt roots and raw barley. Ground malt was extracted at room
temperature with...
The purpose of this study was to characterize the nonvolatile,
water soluble, bis(hydroxyalkyl)N-nitrosamines produced from the
reaction of spermidine and nitrite.
The biologically occurring polyamine spermidine was reacted
with nitrite in the presence of acid. The reaction products were
isolated and converted to trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatives. The
derivatized products were...
