Investigation of Eco-friendly, Bio-based Methods to Produce High Quality and Water-resistant Apple Pomace Biocomposites Using Molded Pulp Technology

Creator:

Lang, Clara V.

Abstract:

The overall goal of this study was to utilize apple pomace, the byproduct from juice processing, as a renewable source of fiber to create sustainable packaging using molded pulp technology. The goal was accomplished through two studies: 1) to modify apple pomace fibers for increasing relative cellulose composition and improving...

The Production and Human Taste Detection of Glucose Polymers with Distinct Chain Length Ranges

Creator:

Balto, Amy

Abstract:

A majority of human caloric intake is in the form of complex carbohydrates, which have been assumed to be tasteless. However, there is considerable evidence from rat and human studies to support the existence of a secondary carbohydrate taste receptor that detects glucose polymers. Psychophysical studies in our lab suggest...
