Formulation and characterization of yogurt prepared with enzymatically hydrolyzed potato powder and whole milk powder.

Unlabelled: This study highlights the optimization of a suitable amount of enzymatically hydrolyzed potato powder (EHPP) with whole milk powder (WMP) to produce a quality yogurt. The yogurt was prepared with different levels of EHPP (0, 10, 15, 20, 25, 35 and 50% w/w) with WMP and evaluated after 24 h at 4 °C. The resulted product was analyzed on the basis of physicochemical, sensory, texture, antioxidant activity and microbiological analysis.

Formulation of active packaging system using Artemisia scoparia for enhancing shelf life of fresh fruits.

An improved active packaging system was developed for fresh fruits using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) coupled with calcium alginate (Ca-ALG). For the synthesis of AgNPs aqueous, ethanol and methanol extracts of Artemisia scoparia (AS) were used. These AgNP's were characterized using UV-Vis, SEM, EDS, AFM, FTIR and gel electrophoresis.
