© 2022 Elsevier LtdWhey is a high nutritional value by-product of the dairy industry. It is generally produced in large quantities and its disposal as wastewater poses environmental risks. For this reason, whey streams are used for the production of value-added products such as dried whey powders. However, there are several challenges related to whey processing that lead to low powder yield and quality, especially caking. These challenges can be addressed by optimization of product formulation and processing parameters. In this review, we discuss the effects of dried whey protein powder production stages and process parameters on the quality of the final powder product. The initial composition of whey used for dried whey powder production affects the final quality of the product. Generally, a high mineral and/or lactic acid content is not desirable since these constituents cause lactose-containing whey particles to adhere to the drying equipment surfaces, thereby reducing the powder yield. An effective lactose pre-crystallization is essential since high amorphous lactose content increases the stickiness of the dried-whey powder particles and induces caking during storage. Therefore, whey should undergo filtration and lactose pre-crystallization before spray drying. Studies show that it is possible to retard caking and improve the quality attributes of dried whey powders by optimizing the product formulation and processing operations.

Development of lactose free dairy dessert Garayev, Sultan; Şahin, Serpil; Hamamcı, Haluk; Department of Food Engineering (2015) A recent trend in food industry is to develop lactose free food products due to the large number of consumers suffering from lactose intolerance. In this study, lactose free desserts were developed by using two different starches; waxy maize and amylomaize. Concentrations of waxy maize and amylomaize were 0.032, 0.040, 0.048 g/ml and 0.064, 0.072, 0.080 g/ml, respectively. Lower concentration of waxy maize starch was enough for body formation and gel like structure, implying waxy maize was more effective in...
Technological aspects of horse meat products - A review Lorenzo, Jose M.; Munekata, Paulo E. S.; Bastianello Campagnol, Paulo Cezar; Zhu, Zhenzhou; Alpas, Hami; Barba, Francisco J.; Tomasevic, Igor (2017-12-01) Horse meat and its products can be considered as a food with a high nutritional value. However, due to cases of economically motivated food adulteration by the intentional addition of horse meat beef products in recent years, horse meat has become a controversial issue. Consumer confidence in meat products and the meat industry has diminished, although consumers consider the differences between the food content and the label as the major issue rather than the safety and nutritional characteristics of horse ...
Demand for functional and nutritional enhancements in specialty milk products Gülseven, Osman (2014-10-01) This article investigates the socio-demographic determinants affecting the demand for functional and nutritional enhancements in milk products based on a two-stage model. In order to derive the implicit market values of these enhancements, first we estimated the relationship between the prices of differentiated dairy products and the amount or respectively the presence of specific characteristics in these products. Next, using these implicit prices along with the information on households' demographic backg...
Consumer willingness to pay for organic chicken and milk in Kuşadası, Turkey Ayhan, Rengin Meryem; Aşık, Serap; Department of Economics (2014) The aim of this study is to examine the consumer perceptions of consumers for organic foods and as well as finding their willingness to pay for organic chicken and milk. To this end, the econometric analysis is conducted by using double bounded dichotomous choice contingent valuation method along with a double bounded logit model. The data is created by conducting face to face surveys with a total of 720 people for chicken and milk cases on July, August and the first two weeks of September in Kuşadası. In t...
Rheological properties of lactose-free dairy desserts Şahin, Serpil; Hamamcı, Haluk (2016-10-01) People suffering from lactose intolerance cannot digest milk or lactose-containing foods. Lactose-free diet is essential for them since they do not have the ability to produce lactase to breakdown milk sugar. Physical properties of lactose-free dairy desserts will most probably be different than that of lactose containing ones because of lactose hydrolysis. In this study, it was aimed to analyze the rheological and textural behaviors of different lactose-free dessert formulations containing different gum ty...
