Crystallization is an important quality parameter that can significantly affect consumer acceptability and perceived quality of the products. Especially in high sugar products, controlling crystallization is a challenge. In this study, the goal is to explain the mechanism of crystallization kinetics of common simple sugars that are mostly used in food processes, namely glucose, fructose, lactose, sucrose as well as a low-calorie rare sugar, allulose. The crystallization process was monitored by Time-domain Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) techniques. Solid Echo (SE) pulse sequence was used for the measurements. Measurements were recorded as the temperature of high sugar content solutions decreased from 50 to 28 degrees C. The acquired data were fit to a kinetic model. The crystallization rate of disaccharides (sucrose and lactose) were found to be much faster than the monosaccharides as expected. However, the crystallization rate of glucose and fructose was much slower than their isomer, allulose. Position of the hydroxyl group, as well as mutarotation vs. crystallization reaction rate, was hypothesized to be the determinant on the crystallization behavior. The results were also supported by moisture content, optical microscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis. Time-domain NMR by SE sequence was suggested as a practical, quick means as a quality control technique to predict crystallization rate and crystal content of high sugar products.

The influence of product appearance on perceived product quality in reference to washing machines Veyisoğlu, Ahmet Burak; Hasdoğan, Gülay Fatma; Department of Industrial Design (2010) Product quality is regarded as one of the most important factors that consumers consider while purchasing products. However, contrary to objective quality, perceived product quality includes consumer's judgment about the overall superiority or excellence of a product. This study mainly concentrates on the relationship between product appearance and perceived product quality especially for durable goods. The definitions of product quality and perceived product quality are reviewed to explain different dimens...
Comparison of methods for robust parameter design of products and processes with an ordered categorical response Bacanlı Karabulut, Gonca; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2013) Robust design of products or processes with categorical response has more momentous role in industrial experiments for quality improvements, because ordinal categorical quality characteristics are encountered more frequent than continuous ones in industry. In this study, five optimization methods for an ordered categorical response are compared with each other: Logistic Regression Model Optimization (LRMO), Accumulation Analysis (AA), Weighted Signal-to-noise Ratio (WSNR), Scoring Scheme (SS), and Weighted ...
Explorations of perceived qualities of on-body interactive products Kuru, Armagan; Erbuğ, Çiğdem (Informa UK Limited, 2013-06-01) Users' perceptions of new forms of products depend on various product qualities. As technology becomes increasingly mobile, carrying technology products on body is becoming more commonplace. As a result, these types of products hold different meanings and intentions for users than off-body products, which may lead to new interpretations. This paper investigates the relationship between the visual qualities of on-body interactive products and users' perceptions of those products. A brief literature review ex...
Analysis of serial inventory systems under nonstationary demand Baskan, Fevzi; Güllü, Refik; Department of Industrial Engineering (2004) In this study we consider a two-echelon supply chain with a nonstationary demand process. The retailer batches the customer demand for a predetermined number of periods before placing an order to the supplier. We show that the demand process for the supplier is more variable than that for the retailer. It is observed that the supplier can reduce the variability of orders by tracking the exogenous demand occurring at the retailer's side.
Using high pressure microfluidization to improve physical properties and lycopene content of ketchup type products Mert, Behiç (Elsevier BV, 2012-04-01) This study evaluates the effects of high pressure microfluidization of ketchup mixes on the physical properties and lycopene content. During the processing the pressure level ranged between 200 and 2000 bar, while the number of passes was kept constant. When the treatment pressure was increased from 200 to 1200 bar, the yield stress, elastic modulus, storage modulus. and Bostwick consistency values of the ketchup samples improved. However, over-processing was observed for the samples treated at 1600 and 200...
