Lipid crystal structures (polymorphs) are the determinant factors for sensorial, textural properties and the stability of the emulsions. Therefore, controlled crystallization gains importance during the production of foods such as margarine, confectionery, chocolate, etc. In literature, studies on the effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on lipid crystallization have contradictory results. To inspect the crystallization characteristics and response to the HHP treatment, palm stearinwater emulsions were prepared with two different emulsifiers (sodium caseinate and hydrogenated soy lecithin-xanthan gum mixture) and pressurized at 100 and 500 MPa, at 10, 20 and 40°C for 15 minutes. Particle size analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), transverse relaxation time (T2) and self-diffusion coefficient (SDC) determinations and small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) were conducted to investigate the changes induced by HHP treatment. According to the results, HHP did not affect droplet size of sodium caseinate (SC) emulsions so it vi was observed that mean particle size was affected only by the types of emulsifiers and storage time. In addition, sodium caseinate has the capability to produce smaller particles than 80H_XG emulsion. HHP has no significant effect on the melting temperature of polymorphs; but pressure and storage time have significant effect on crystal polymorphs’ content in emulsions. HHP induced formation of more stable β crystals in both sodium caseinate and soy lecithin-xanthan gum mixture emulsions. In addition to this, HHP also induced solid wall formation in soy lecithin-xanthan gum mixture emulsions. Changes in α and β contents with respect to pressure and storage time were detected by T2 and SDC measurements. These findings suggested that the beginning of emulsions’ destabilization can be detected by NMR measurements. The pressure effect may easily be seen in the ab-initio structural model with SAXS measurements. The pressure application caused a structural change from spherical form to cylindrical form in sodium caseinate (SC) solution and SC emulsion droplets reached more compact spherical like aggregations.

Effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on crystal structure of palm stearin emulsions
Sevdın, Sezen; Yucel, Umut; Alpas, Hami (2017-08-01)
High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment was used to control the crystallization behavior of solid lipid nanoparticles stabilized with sodium caseinate (SC) and soy lecithin Phospholipon 80H (80H). Samples were pressurized at 100 and 500 MPa, at 10, 20 and 40 degrees C for 15 min. The stability of emulsions was analyzed by visual observation for gelation, and the change in the droplet size distribution using light scattering measurements after HHP treatment and storage for 28 days at 4 degrees C. The cryst...
Effect of inorganic salts on the main parameters of the dilute aqueous poly(vinylpyrrolidone) solutions
Salamova, UU; Rzaev, ZMO; Altindal, S; Masimov, AA (1996-06-01)
The effect of inorganic salts (cosolute) on the main parameters of dilute aqueous poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) solutions, such as cloud points, phase diagram, theta temperature and viscosity was studied experimentally using various concentrations of salts and said polymer at varying temperatures. It is shown that, thermodynamic incompatibility of aqueous PVP-salts solutions strongly depends on the character of effect of salts (water-structure breakers or water-structure makers). Inclusion of salts into aque...

Effect of chromium(VI) on the biomass yield of activated sludge
Yetiş, Ülkü; Gokcay, CF (1999-07-15)
Effect of 1-25 mg/l of influent Cr(VI) concentrations on true biomass yield (Y-t) and decay coefficient (k(d)) of activated sludge units was investigated in this study. To this purpose, completely mixed, once-through laboratory scale activated sludge units with acclimated cultures were operated. After obtaining dilute-out curves for each Cr(VI) concentration, the values of Y-t and k(d) were determined. The results revealed that presence of Cr(VI) caused stimulatory effects on biomass yield and maintenance u...
Effects of Isoflurane, Halothane, and Chloroform on the Interactions and Lateral Organization of Lipids in the Liquid-Ordered Phase
Türkyılmaz, Serhan; Regen, Steven L. (2011-12-06)
The first quantitative insight has been obtained into the effects that volatile anesthetics have on the interactions and lateral organization of lipids in model membranes that mimic "lipid rafts". Specifically, nearest-neighbor recogntion measurements, in combination with Monte Carlo simulations, have been used to investigate the action of isoflurane, halothane, and chloroform on the compactness and lateral organization of cholesterol-rich bilayers of 1,2-dipalmitoylsn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) in the...
