Dispersions of wheat gluten were prepared at different pHs (4, 6 and 11) in the presence or absence of ethanol. Films were obtained after casting suspensions followed by evaporation of the solvent. Films prepared at pH 11 were significantly stronger than the films prepared at pH 4 and 6 with tensile strengths of approximately 7 vs. 2 MPa. With increasing strength, the elongation at break was moderately reduced from approximately 300% to 190%. No significant variations of water vapour transfer rate properties were observed among the films. The solubility of gluten films in aqueous and 1.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution decreased with increasing pH of films. Tricine sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel (SDS-PAGE) patterns of wheat gluten and film showed the formation of high molecular weight fractions. The amount of free amino groups in the wheat gluten decreased during film formation. Amino acid analysis showed the presence of lysinoalanine (LAL). All these results indicate the formation of irreversible intermolecular cross-linking upon film formation at pH 11.

ENTHALPY - ENTROPY AND FREQUENCY FACTOR - ACTIVATION-ENERGY COMPENSATION RELATIONS FOR DIFFUSION IN STARCH AND POTATO TISSUE OZILGEN, M (Wiley, 1993-02-01) Diffusion of water in hydrated starch, hydrated starch plus sucrose, and diffusion of glucose, potassium, magnesium and ascorbic acid in potato tissue, i.e. a major natural source of starch, were analyzed with Eyring's diffusion theory and the compensation relations. The results implied that there may be an isokinetic temperature for the diffusion of water in amioca (amylopectin, one of the major macromolecular components of starch) and hylon 7 (native corn starch). Having an isokinetic temperature may impl...
Antioxidative and free radical scavenging properties of rosemary extract Basaga, H; Öztekin, Ceren; Acikel, F (Elsevier BV, 1997-01-01) Autoxidation of corn and soybean oils was prevented in the presence of 0.1 g/kg rosemary (Rosemarinus officinalis L.) extract and butylated hydroxy toluene (BHT). At the end of a 4-d period, the peroxide value in corn oil reached 13.0 and 8.2 in the presence of rosemary extract and BHT respectively. For soybean oil, the peroxide value was found to be 10.0 and 6.6 in the presence of rosemary extract and BHT respectively Rosemary extract and BHT when added as mixtures of 75:25, 50:50 and 25:75 had a synergist...
Mathematical modeling of swelling in high moisture whey protein gels Öztop, Halil Mecit (Elsevier BV, 2011-09-01) Gels prepared from whey proteins can be used for controlled release of nutrients or active ingredients in food systems. The objective of this study was to characterize the water uptake by these hydrophilic gels to aid in the design of release systems. Whey protein isolate (WPI) gels (17% w/w protein) of different aspect ratios were submersed in aqueous solution at pH 7.0. Modeling of mass uptake is presented in terms of Case I (Fickian diffusion) and Case II (kinetic) models. Due to the extent of swelling, ...
Thermal and chemical inactivation of lactococcal bacteriophages BUZRUL, Sencer; OZTURK, Pinar; Alpas, Hami; AKÇELİK, Mustafa (Elsevier BV, 2007-01-01) Ten lactococcal bacteriophages in M 17 broth were treated by heat (72 degrees C, 15 min and 90 degrees C, 5 min), ethanol and isopropanol at concentrations of 10%, 50%. 75% and 100% (v/v). The heat treatments were not sufficient to inactivate all the bacteriophages studied whereas ethanol, which was also more efficient biocide than isopropanol, at a concentration of 75% could inactivate all the phages in I min. The 50% and 75% of ethanol were more effective than 100%, which was also observed for isopropanol...
Organic acid profile of Turkish white grapes and grape juices Soyer, Yeşim; Karadeniz, F (Elsevier BV, 2003-10-01) Organic acid compositions of 11 different white grape cultivars and grape juices were determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The ranges of acid concentrations found in grapes were as follows: citric, 30-164 mg/l; tartaric, 4.98-7.48 g/l and malic, 1.43-3.40 g/l. Also the ranges of acid concentrations found in grape juices were as follows: citric, 31-181 mg/l, tartaric, 4.07-4.92 g/l and malic, 1.36-3.47 g/l. Tartaric acid was the major acid in every grape variety analyzed. Grape juices ha...
