This study deals with the mathematical modeling of crystallization kinetics occurring during batch production of the ice cream. The temperature decrease was recorded in-situ through a computerized wireless system. A robust pattern-recognition algorithm of the experimental cooling curves was developed to determine the initial freezing point. The theoretical freezing point was used to calibrate the whole time-temperature profile. Finally, a modified Gompertz's function was used to describe the main steps of crystallization kinetics. Derivative analysis of the Gompertz's function allowed to determine the time-temperature physical markers of dynamic nucleation, ice crystal growth and air whipping. Composition and freezing properties were used as input variables in multivariate analysis to classification purposes of the ice cream mixtures as a function of their ability to produce high-quality ice cream. The numerical analysis of the whole cooling curve was used to build predictive models of the ice cream quality indices.

The food and pharmaceutical sectors frequently utilize vanillin (VAN), a food ingredient with a pleasing flavor and aroma. However, excessive consumption of VAN causes several health problems, including liver and kidney damage, headaches, skin conditions, nausea, and vomiting. To prevent health problems, it is crucial to identify and control the amount of VAN in food and drugs.

Fish skin is the basic source of gelatin, which contains a high amount of protein. The results show that the proximate compositions (protein, fat, ash, moisture, fiber, carbohydrate, and total energy) of the optimized ice cream product with ingredient compositions of (30% milk, 40% avocado pulp, 10% sugar, 15% gelatin, and 5% cream) show values of 3.

Introduction: The adverse health effects of sugar-sweetened beverage intake are well-established, but the implications of overall added sugar intake remain unclear. We investigated the associations between intake of added sugar and various sugar-sweetened foods and beverages and risk of 7 cardiovascular diseases in 69,705 participants aged 45-83 years (47.2% female) from the Swedish Mammography cohort and Cohort of Swedish men.

In our previous work, wheat gluten (WG) has been modified by pH-shifting treatment combined with heat to improve solubility and emulsibility. In this study, the high-soluble modified wheat gluten (M-WG) as an emulsifier in ice cream was investigated. Compared to monoglycerides (MG) and soy protein isolates (SPI), the ice cream emulsion prepared with M-WG exhibited smaller droplet sizes and a more consistent dispersion.

The heart of the date palm is a nutrient-rich vegetable found at the center of palm trees, abundant in protein and dietary fiber, primarily made up of carbohydrates. Preliminary studies indicate that the heart of the date palm possesses healing properties, exhibiting potent cytotoxic effects against HepG2 cells, suggesting its potential in cancer treatment. A low-fat ice cream was created using camel milk, enriched with varying amounts of heart of date palm-4 %, 8 %, and 12 % of the mix-as a source of bioactive compounds, protein, and carbohydrates.
