Human bitterness detection thresholds of hop acids in beer and honey

Creator:: Kolpin, Kathryn M.
Abstract:: 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...

Biogenic silica sedimentation in the central equatorial Pacific during the Cenozoic

Creator:: Leinen, Margaret, 1946-
Abstract:: A new technique for determining the amount of opal in deep-sea sediments of any age is described. Using a normative calculation, a portion of the analytical silica concentration of sediments is subtracted as non-biogenic in proportion to the concentration of aluminum in the sample. The ratio of SiO₂:Al₂O₃ used to...

Extraction and production of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrate from Pacific sardines (Sardinops sagax)

Creator:: Okada, Tomoko
Abstract:: Intrinsic characteristics of Pacific sardines were determined. The lipid content in sardines was initially low (6.79%) in the beginning ofthe season, increased to 22.95% in mid-August, and decreased slightly by the end of September. An inverse correlation (R² = -0.90) was found between lipid and moisture content. Analysis showed that...

Identification of quantitative trait loci underlying kernel extra-softness and related traits by linkage and association mapping in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Creator:: Wang, Guomei
Abstract:: Kernel hardness (KHA) is a major factor determining break flour yield (BFY) and end-use quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Within the soft wheat class, genotypes with consistently softer grains than common soft wheat are considered to be 'extra-soft'. In addition, 'extra-soft' wheats have greater BFY than common soft...
