An analytical and sensory evaluation of the aroma volatiles of Tuber gibbosum

Creator:: Marin, Anna B.
Abstract:: The aroma of Tuber gibbosum, a native Oregon truffle, was characterized using two distinct techniques. Volatile aroma constituents were identified by chemical analysis, and sensory characteristics were determined by examining response of the general populace to the truffle aroma. Truffle samples from four maturity ranges, as determined by microscopic examination...

Characterization and detection of potential adulterants in apple juice by pattern recognition methods

Creator:: Pilando, Leticia S.
Abstract:: Fruit juice concentrates- hard pear, soft pear, fig, prune, raisin, white grape, and pineapple, and sweeteners-invert beet, invert cane, and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) were characterized by sugar profiles, nonvolatile acid profiles, UV spectral profiles, and mineral content. These fruit juices and sweeteners were also used to adulterate commercial...

Determinants of student intention to engage in laboratory versus non-laboratory science learning behavior

Creator:: Ray, Brian Daniel
Abstract:: The purpose was to gain information about the determinants of student behavior with respect to laboratory (lab) and non-laboratory (non-lab) science learning activities. Fishbein and Ajzen's (1975) theory of reasoned action was used to investigate students' salient beliefs, correlations between determinants of intention, and the relative weights of determinants of...

Quality characteristics for fully-cooked ham, brine-cured prior to freezing

Creator:: Wilson, Vicki L.
Abstract:: Thirty bone-in hams from market weight hogs were used in this study, three groups of 10 each. One group was brine-cured, frozen and stored (F/S) at -20°C for 90 days prior to heat processing and smoking. A second group was similarly cured and frozen, not stored (F/NS), but thawed immediately,...

Xylem discontinuity in Vitis vinifera L. berries

Creator:: Creasy, Glen L.
Abstract:: Several effects of xylem discontinuity in Pinot noir and Merlot grape berries were studied. There was a reduction in the amount of apoplastic dye (Eosin Y or azosulfamide) uptake through cut pedicels into soft versus firm berries, suggesting a reduction in maximal xylem flow at that time. Both greenhouse and...

Ripening pear flavor volatiles : identification, biosynthesis and sensory perception

Creator:: Suwanagul, Anawat
Abstract:: Volatile compounds of eight pear varieties were isolated and identified by GC/MS. A total of 112 components were identified from headspace of intact fruits, including 47 compounds reported for the first time in pear. The volatile profiles of these pear varieties were characterized by esters, alcohols, hydrocarbons, aldehydes and ketones....

Use of hedonic scales among Chinese, Koreans, and Thais

Creator:: Yeh, Lue-Lih
Abstract:: To satisfy the desires of consumers in global markets for new products, it is essential that the cross-cultural differences in product acceptance are understood. An important aspect in cross-cultural research is the measurement tool of product acceptance. The most common scale for acceptance testing is the 9-point hedonic scale that...

Aggregation, bulk density, compaction, and water intake responses to winter cover cropping in Willamette Valley vegetable production

Creator:: Buller, Gilbert L.
Abstract:: Many agricultural sustainability issues are related to biological processes which are central to the ecological function of soils. Soil physical properties are the architecture in which these processes are carried out. Cover crops hold promise as one of the techniques which can ameliorate poor soil structure and improve bulk density...

Possible compensations of the components of grain yeild in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) as influenced by genotype by environment interactions

Creator:: Bedoshvili, David
Abstract:: Despite many investigations genotype by environment interaction remains one of the least understood factors in plant improvement. Understanding genotypic differences responsible for such interactions could assist in making more informed breeding decisions. The components of yield being less complex than grain yield per se may be useful for selection to...
