  • The Role of Ascorbic Acid, β-Cyclodextrins, and Alternative Substrates in Dictating Rates of Polyphenol Oxidase-Catalyzed Browning in Potato-Based Reaction Mixtures

    Creator:
    Jiang, Shu
    Abstract:
    Enzymatic browning is a consequence of a series of reactions initiated by polyphenol oxidase (PPO)-catalyzed quinone formation. Unwanted browning negatively affects food quality and lowers consumer acceptability. Thus, there is general interest in strategies to control enzymatic browning. Cyclodextrins are cyclic glucan oligosaccharides that form inclusion complexes with a number...

  • Initial velocity analyses of milling effects on rates of enzyme-catalyzed saccharification of native wheat straw

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Quynh M.
    Abstract:
    There is considerable interest in developing environmentally friendly processes for the economical conversion of biomass plant material to biofuels, bioproducts and biomaterials. One approach to such a conversion process is to make use of enzymes for the conversion of plant polysaccharides to simple sugars; the simple sugars could then be...

  • Wheat lignin as a functional dietary fiber component

    Creator:
    Junyusen, Tiraporn
    Abstract:
    This dissertation has focused on lignin byproducts that result from the alkali processing of wheat straw. The first study evaluated the application of “standard” lignin quantification methods for summative analyses of alkali-based processes. Mass closure during NaOH processing at 25, 50, and 75°C of wheat straw was evaluated using the...

  • Data Mining in Food Science Research and Technical Functionality of Wheat Straw-Derived Fibers

    Creator:
    Karaarslan Urhan, Tuba
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focused on data mining in food science research and on the technical functional properties of wheat straw-derived biorefinery-byproduct fiber preparations as related to potential applications as food ingredients. This first study evaluated the importance of electronic bibliographic database selection and multiple database usage during the information retrieval phase...
