The studies were performed to evaluate the impact of microwave radiation on the larval stages of parasites and particularly on the survival of Opisthorchis metacercariae when fish was cooked in domestic microwave ovens. It was found to take less time to free fish and its products from Opisthorchis metacercariae in the microwave oven than that to cook the product completely. The performed experiments have shown that the use of microwave ovens to domestically prepare carps from unfavorable opisthorchiasis water reservoirs is an effective mean of freeing fishes from Opisthorchis metacercariae.

The EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials (FCM) assessed the safety of the recycling process NGR LSP (EU register number RECYC328). The input is hot washed and dried poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) flakes mainly originating from collected post-consumer PET containers, with no more than 5% PET from non-food consumer applications. The flakes are dried (step 2), melted in an extruder (step 3) and decontaminated during a melt-state polycondensation step under high temperature and vacuum (step 4).

This is the first study to assess the impact of substitution of shortening (50%) with sunflower-beeswax oleogel in cake formulations on the inactivation kinetics of Salmonella spp. and the quality attributes of cakes baked in conventional (CO) and microwave (MWO) ovens. Four distinct cake samples were examined in the study: Cake samples containing oleogel prepared in two different ovens (Oleo-Cake-CO and Oleo-Cake-MWO) and control cake samples baked in two different ovens (Cont-Cake-CO and Cont-Cake-MWO).

As China advances its green economy, innovative methods are being employed to enhance energy optimization and conservation within energy-intensive industries. Among these methods, microwave heating stands out due to its superior heating efficiency and lack of pollution. Nonetheless, uniform heating remains a challenge because the microwave absorption capacity of the heated medium varies with changes in heating time and temperature.

Domestic microwave ovens offer rapid cooking but face challenges such as non-uniform temperature distribution and hot spots. A novel solid-state heating system, which precisely controls microwave frequency and power, provides a promising alternative to traditional microwave ovens utilizing magnetron systems. This study compared the effects of solid-state microwave cooking on the quality of broccoli, red peppers, and carrots with those of traditional microwave and conventional cooking.
