The starch granules of both Purity W, a modified waxy cornstarch, and wheat flour were affected by processing, refrigeration, freezing, and reheating. The major change in starch granules shown by scanning electron micrographs was the trend towards greater deformation of the starch granule and, apparently, subsequent greater homogeneity of the mixture. Sensory evaluation revealed a statistically significant difference (p of less than 0.05) only in overall acceptability of the fresh vs. the frozen soup. The other quality characteristics of texture acceptability, consistency, and syneresis were not statistically (p of less than 0.05) different.

Background: The microbial testing platform, Peel Plate™, was developed with Baird Parker ingredients for Staphylococcus aureus (SA) specificity. After rehydrating with 1 mL of the diluted food sample, Peel Plate SA is incubated for 24-48 h at 35-37 °C and observed for purple colonies.
Objective: A validation study was performed to evaluate Peel Plate SA for enumeration of S.

This study aimed to simulate frozen instant soup rice noodles (FISRN) and investigate the effects of long-term frozen storage (-18 °C, 180 days) on the quality characteristics, moisture status, and starch retrogradation of FISRN. The findings indicated that the extent of starch retrogradation gradually increased over 90 days, which elevated the RS rate and inhibited starch digestibility. However, recrystallization resulted in a gradual increase in ice crystal size after 90 days, which disrupted the ordered structure formed by starch retrogradation, reduced the degree of starch order, and accelerated the rate of starch digestion.

The soaking process of glutinous rice allows the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, which can easily cause food safety problems. In this work, the effects of different ultrasonic powers (150 W, 300 W, 450 W, and 600 W) on the bactericidal effect of glutinous rice, the physicochemical properties of starch and the quality characteristics of sweet dumplings were studied. Compared with soaking for 0 and 2 h, sonication of glutinous rice after soaking for 4 h was more effective at reducing the number of microorganisms in soaked glutinous rice, and the bactericidal effect increased with increasing ultrasound intensity.

Background: Central sensitization is one of the pivotal pathological mechanisms in chronic migraine (CM). Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) was shown to be involved in CM, but its specific mechanism is unclear. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are increasingly regarded as important signaling molecules in several models of pain.

The purpose of this experimentation was to study the evolution of the quality of two types of blast-frozen ready-to-(h)eat meals, tortellini and a vegetable soup, during a short shelf life of 70 days. The analyses, performed in order to identify any variations resulting either from the freezing process or from the subsequent storage, carried out at the temperatures of -30 °C and -18 °C, respectively, examined the consistency of the tortellini and the soup, the acidity and the peroxide value of the oil extracted from them, the phenols and carotenoids present in the soup, the volatile compounds in the tortellini and the soup, and a sensory analysis of both products. The results showed that, during the 70 days of shelf life, there was no variation in the texture of the tortellini, but there were changes in the consistency of the soup, which decreased as the days of storage went on.
