In this study, the working principles and the theoretical background of a new method to measure the viscoelastic properties of dough in the fermentation process are presented. During measurements, the dough sample was placed between a stationary bottom plate and an oscillating top plate and squeezed at random frequencies ranging from 10 to 100,000 rad/s. By measuring the required force and velocity of oscillations, the mechanical impedance of the samples, defined as the ratio of the force to oscillation velocity, was determined during fermentation. The measured mechanical impedance was used to calculate viscoelastic properties such as elastic and loss moduli of the dough samples. The nondestructive quick measurements and data covering a wide range of frequencies are some of the main advantages of the method. Furthermore, the described instrument can be easily affixed to the commonly available texture analyzer type equipments.

A new method to determine viscoelastic properties of corn grits during cooking and drying Mert, Behiç; Campanella, Osvaldo H. (Elsevier BV, 2007-07-01) The working principles and the theoretical background of a new method to measure the viscoelastic properties of grains during cooking and drying processes are presented. Specifically, corn grits at different processing stages of cooking and drying were chosen as the model grain and their viscoelastic characteristics, namely elastic stiffness and viscous damping, were determined. During the measurements grits were squeezed between a rigid bottom plate and a top round element oscillating at random frequencies...
Studies on an inhibitor produced by lactic acid bacteria of wines on the control of malolactic fermentation Yurdugul, S; Bozoglu, F (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2002-07-01) Malolactic fermentation is the microbiological process in wines, where lactic acid bacteria (LAB) govern the process of converting L-malic acid into L-lactic acid. During this process a high microbial load of LAB may lead to an unwanted spoilage phenomena by formation of excessive amounts of undesirable flavor compounds. This study is mainly focused on the isolation of LAB from the native flora of the wine, which has an inhibitory potential against malolactic activity of LAB inherent in wines. An isolate of...
A study on the effects of different gums on dielectric properties and quality of breads baked in infrared-microwave combination oven Keskin, Semin Ozge; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-01-01) In this study, the effects of different gums on dielectric properties of doughs and breads baked in infrared-microwave combination oven were investigated. In addition, the quality parameters of breads formulated with different gums baked in infrared-microwave combination oven were determined. The gums used were xanthan, guar, xanthan-guar blend and kappa-carrageenan. The gums were added to the formulation at 0.5% concentration. The dielectric properties and quality parameters of breads baked in infrared-mic...
Optimization of halogen lamp-microwave combination baking of cakes: a response surface methodology study Sevimli, KM; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-07-01) The main objective of this study was to optimize processing conditions during halogen lamp-microwave combination baking of cake by using response surface methodology. The independent variables were the power of the upper halogen lamp (50, 60, and 70%), the power of the lower halogen lamp (50, 60, and 70%), the power of the microwaves (30, 40, and 50%), and the baking time (4, 5, and 6 min). Weight loss, specific volume, color, and the texture profile of the cakes were determined. The upper halogen lamp powe...
Analysis of the electrofiltration mechanism based on multiphase filtration theory Genc, A; Tosun, I (Informa UK Limited, 2004-01-01) A mathematical model based on multiphase filtration theory is developed to describe the electrofiltration process. The model takes both electrophoretic and electroosmotic effects into account. The electrophoretic migration velocity of solid particles is predicted from the model using the filtrate volume time data obtained from electrofiltration experiments.
