  • Suppression of sourness in binary and tertiary model mixture solutions

    Creator:
    Savant, Lotika
    Abstract:
    Addition of acids to foods allows for enhanced food safety. Acids are the primary form of defense against microbial contamination in refrigerated foods, while use of acids in conjunction with heat or high hydrostatic pressure processing lowers energy usage resulting in cost reduction. However, addition of acids to food or...

  • Impact of seasonal variation and growing environment on blackberry aroma

    Creator:
    Wang, Yuanyuan
    Abstract:
    Blackberries have been enjoyed for their delicious flavor and high nutritional value for hundreds of years. In North America, blackberries were cultivated since 1850-1860. Blackberries have their characteristic and unique aromas depending on the cultivar and growing conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of seasonal...

  • Flavor composition of transgenic raspberry bushy dwarf virus-resistant 'Meeker' raspberries

    Creator:
    Malowicki, Sarah Marie-Mahler
    Abstract:
    Raspberries have been popular since the time of the ancient Greeks. Red raspberries are cultivated throughout the world, particularly in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and Canada. The raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV) causes significant reduction in yield and crumbly fruit in raspberries, blackberries and raspberry-blackberry hybrids....

  • Evaluation of the off-flavor in English sole (Parophrys vetulus) using descriptive analysis techniques and consumer testing

    Creator:
    Geise, Laura Ann
    Abstract:
    English sole (Parophrys vetulus) is a flatfish found in abundance in the Pacific Ocean and is part of the Pacific Northwest's and California's commercial trawl fishery. Stock levels of this fish are at all time highs but there are decreased landings due to low demand and acceptability. With new regulations...

  • Edible coatings to improve storability and enhance nutritional value of strawberries (Fragaria ananassa) and raspberries (Rubus ideaus)

    Creator:
    Han, Chunran
    Abstract:
    Strawberries {Fragaria ananasa) and raspberries {Rubus ideaus) are good sources ofmany important nutrients, and have great potential to improve human health. However, they are highly perishable and have a very short shelf-life mainly due to the attack of fungi and high respiration rate. Edible coatings, especially chitosan-based coatings have been...

  • Descriptive sensory analysis of thornless blackberry selections to determine sensory similarity to 'Marion' blackberry flavor

    Creator:
    Kurnianta, Astrid Joana
    Abstract:
    'Marion' blackberry is known for having excellent aroma and flavor, yet they are susceptible to damage by freezing and they are very thorny. Thornless blackberry cultivars have been developed and show great potential. Thus, the interest of the study was in determining which of eight thornless blackberry cultivars, have similar...

    Creator:
    Du, Xiaofen
    Abstract:
    The objectives of this study are to 1) qualitatively and quantitatively measure the odor-active compounds in ‘Marion’ blackberry; 2) compare the aroma profiles of advanced selections and new cultivars of thornless blackberry cultivars with ‘Marion’; 3) study the development of furaneol in ‘Marion’ during ripening and; 4) investigate the distribution...

  • Aroma comparison of 'Marion' (Rubus sp. L.) and 'Thornless Evergreen' (R. laciniatus L.) blackberries

    Creator:
    Klesk, Keith
    Abstract:
    'Marion' and 'Thornless Evergreen' blackberry volatiles were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FED) and GC-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Based on total percentage of FID area 'Thornless Evergreen' contains significantly more alcohols, hydrocarbons, and phenols than the 'Marion'; 'Marion' contains more acids and esters. Both cultivars contained comparable amounts of...

  • A simulation tool for evaluating sensory data analysis methods

    Creator:
    Naini, Shuo
    Abstract:
    In cross-cultural studies, respondents from specific cultures may have different product preferences and scale usage. Combining data from different cultures will result in departures from the basic assumptions of analysis of variance (ANOVA) and loss of power in testing capability of finding product and culture differences. However, the result of...
