The ability of a silicone antifoam to retard foaming in a liquor prepared from potatoes is enhanced by the addition of ethoxylated nonionic surfactants. The enhancement is non-linear for surfactant concentration, with all 12 surfactants tested possessing a concentration at which foam heights

For three cultivars of potato starch, heat-moisture treatment (HMT) displayed an influence on the aggregation structures at different scale levels. With HMT, the granular morphology of potato starch granules remained similarly, and an increase in the average repeat distance of semi-crystalline

Ultrastructural changes to the midgut epithelium of nymphs of the black field cricket (Teleogryllus commodus) after ingestion of potato protease inhibitor II (PPI-II) (0.6% (w/v) in artificial diet) were determined by light and electron microscopy. Crickets fed diet containing PPI-II grew more

The effects of different preparation methods on the bioaccessibility of β-carotene in orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP), an important food crop in sub-Saharan Africa, have been evaluated using an in vitro digestion procedure. The preparation methods included, on fresh roots, boiling followed by

Pullulanase enzyme (40 U/g, 10 h) was used for enzymatic hydrolysis of potato starch which was autoclaved (121 °C/30 min), stored under refrigeration (4 °C/24 h) and lyophilized. Comparison of morphological, pasting, textural and thermal properties among native hydrolysed starch (V2) and gelatinized

A mechanism by which intact potato (Solanum tuberosum) mitochondria may regulate the matrix NAD content was studied in vitro. If mitochondria were incubated with NAD(+) at 25 degrees C in 0.3 molar mannitol, 10 millimolar phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), 5 millimolar MgCl(2), and 5 millimolar

The ultrastructure of cells within shoot tips of S. tuberosum 'Désirée' was studied after different steps of the DMSO droplet cryopreservation method. After 2 h of DMSO treatment, cells contained numerous small vesicles, while at the same time mitochondria and chloroplasts had increased in size and

The impact of high intensity electric field pulses, high hydrostatic pressure, and freezing-thawing on local structural changes of the membrane was determined for potato, sugar beet tissue, and yeast suspensions. On the basis of the electrophysical model of cell systems in biological tissues and

In this work, we present the results of an undergrad student from the perspective of its first approach as a principal researcher in a project. In order to gain practical experience, one of the options for students that have interest in pursuing a postgraduate program corresponds to a research stay

Hypertension (HTN) is one of the most prevalent chronic conditions; it can damage blood vessels and rupture blood vessels can trap in small vessels. This blockage can prevent blood flow and oxygen delivery to brain cells and can result in Alzheimer's disease (AD). HTN- and AD-mediated long-time

The cellular structure of food tissue is complex, and it is difficult to understand the morphological changes during drying. Three different cellular environments, namely intracellular space, intercellular space, and cell wall in food tissue contain a different proportion of water. It is crucial to

Aluminum and bisulfite salts inhibit the growth of several fungi and bacteria, and their application effectively controls potato soft rot caused by Erwinia carotovora. In an effort to understand their inhibitory action, ultrastructural changes in Erwinia carotovora subsp. atroseptica after exposure

Maize cereal has potential to be used for food purpose but lack of viscoelastic behaviour that limits its use for this purpose. Therefore, present study on modification of pasting properties of maize flour using different additives was carried out. Flours of three maize varieties (PMH1, JL3459 and

Atherosclerosis is a chronic pathological process and it is generelly accepted that lipids, coagulation and inflammatory factors play an important role in its development. Environmental factors such as bed diet and cigarette smoking strongly stimulate initation and progression of atherosclerotic

Tetralobulate glandular trichomes are present on the foliage of many solanaceous species. Resistance of many of these species to insects is conditioned by the ability of trichomes to rupture upon contact and to rapidly polymerize their contents, resulting in entrapment of insects in hardened
