Cooked sausages from goat meat (GM) with 20, 25 and 30 % levels of goat tripe (GT) were prepared and their quality evaluated. Cooked sausages prepared with 100% GM were used as control. Significant (p>0.05) increase was observed for pH, diameter shrinkage, drip loss, protein and fat contents in GT incorporated cooked sausages than control. However, significant (p> 0.05) reverse trends were observed for product yield and moisture content. Sensory evaluation scores for appearance and colour, flavor, tenderness, juiciness, binding and overall acceptability were highest for 20% GT incorporated cooked sausage, followed by 25% and 30% GT incorporated cooked sausages. Physico - chemical and sensory evaluation scores of 20 % GT incorporated cooked sausages were comparable with control goat meat sausage and the values did not differ significantly between them. Thus, it can be concluded that 80% GM and 20% GT can be used for preparation of cooked goat meat sausages without affecting quality and acceptability.

In the present study, Rhododendron flowers were used for the preparation of biscuits to enhance the utility of this valuable flower. Dried Rhododendron petals powder was incorporated at different levels (0%, 5%, 10% and 15%) in biscuits and their sensory and physico- chemical properties were evaluated. The results revealed that, the length and thickness of biscuits decreased by increasing the proportion of Rhododendron powder in biscuits. Addition of Rhododendron powder to wheat flour significantly increased the content of moisture, ash (0.75 to 1.20 %), protein (3.06 to 4.96 %), fibre (0.07 to 0.67 %) and iron (3.90 to 4.19 mg/100g). The sensory results showed a significant decrease (7.70 to 7.10) in the overall acceptability by the addition of Rhododendron power to wheat flour but the product remained acceptable in terms of sensory acceptability up to the level 10 per cent. From the study it can be concluded that a maximum of 15% Rhododendron powder can be incorporated to prepare acceptable quality of biscuits.

Public concern on the excessive use of synthetic food additives has raised a great interest to use natural products due to their potential in food and pharmacological industries. Nowadays, chemical food additives are questioned due to their contribution to the health risks and environmental impacts. Among natural additives, essential oils (EOs) are extracted from aromatic compounds and responsible for their biological activities namely antimicrobial and antioxidant capacity. Incorporation of bio-active compounds particularly EOs directly in food or edible/biodegradable food packaging seems to enhance the shelf life and quality characteristics of processed food and protect the consumers against oxidative and bacterial deterioration effects. However, inclusion of EOs in films/coatings for food packaging may put some effects on various properties (optic, tensile and etc.), which can affect the consumer acceptability. Their addition in food can cause some allergic and hypersensitivity reactions to the individuals who use them often. This paper aims to review the latest findings on the use of EOs incorporated with edible/biodegradable films and coatings to enhance the shelf life and quality of the food. Further investigations about essential oils are expected to clarify their exact action and build up their standard use in food industry.

Background: Spent hen meat is considered as poor because of comparatively higher toughness and chewiness. The present study was envisaged to find out the effect of barley flour on the quality characteristics of restructured spent hen meat blocks.Methods: Barley flour (1:1 hydration, w/w) was incorporated at the levels of 4, 6 and 8% by replacing the lean meat in pre-standardized restructured spent hen meat blocks (RSHMB) formulation and evaluated for physico-chemical, sensory and textural quality.Result: Product yield was significantly higher (P less than 0.05) and at 6 and 8% level of barley flour as compared to control. Fat percentage and shear force value of RSHMB was significantly lower (P less than 0.05) at 8% level of barley flour as compared to control. There were no significant differences in the scores for general appearance, texture, binding, juiciness and overall acceptability of RSHMB of control as well as those incorporated with different levels of barley flour. Texture profile analysis revealed that the hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of RSHMB with 8% barley flour were significantly lower (P less than 0.05) than that of control. Optimum incorporation level of barley flour for the preparation of restructured spent hen meat blocks was adjudged as 8%. The production cost of RSHMB with 8% barley flour reduced by Rs. 18.4/Kg than that of control. The developed restructured spent hen meat blocks with 8% barley flour can be utilized as texture-modified nutritious soft food products.

Bulk electrical properties of media are important inherently for ground penetrating radar (GPR) applications and for providing a means to determine indirectly other physical properties such as moisture content. We have developed a reflector whose reflectivity can be controlled electronically. This variable reflector controlled by a GPR provides an effective method to measure bulk electrical properties of media. For sample measurements, the GPR is placed on one side of a sample and the variable reflector on the opposite side. GPR trace data are then acquired with the reflector in an on-state and in the off-state. By differencing these measurements, we improve the ability to detect the specific reflection event from the variable reflector. This process removes both the direct wave and clutter from the trace data, improving the quality of the refection event and our ability to accurately pick its arrival time and amplitude. We describe the variable reflector, a prototype instrument based on the reflector and numerical modeling performed to understand its response. We also show the results of testing applications to the measurement of wood chip moisture content and monitoring of the electrical properties of concrete during the curing process.

Soy corn yoghurt is a vegan friendly product prepared by using soymilk as the major ingredient. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of corn milk addition (0, 10, 20, 25 & 30%) on the quality of soy yoghurt. The samples were subjected to sensory evaluation for consumer acceptability and data were subjected to statistical analysis. From sensory evaluation and statistical analysis 10% corn milk inclusion was selected as the best product (p<0.05). The yoghurt thus prepared using 10% corn milk had total solids 22.04%, moisture content 78.62%, protein 4.84%, fat 3.29%, carbohydrate 12.57%, ash 0.81%, acidity 0.68% and pH 4.58. Both control and 10% corn milk incorporated yoghurts were stored under refrigeration 6±1° C and analyzed at 2 days interval till 10 days. Yoghurts with corn milk and control were organoleptically acceptable up to 10 and 6 days respectively. Acidity and syneresis increased but pH decreased with storage time in both samples.

Food labelled with a “best before” date has a long shelf life. This study aimed to examine the respondents’ knowledge and understanding regarding the labelling on food products, as well as to assess the microbiological, physico–chemical and the sensory quality of selected durable food products on and after the date specified by the manufacturer. Two methods were used—a survey and laboratory tests. It was found that the majority of respondents have difficulty distinguishing and understanding the terms on the label and that a significant proportion of the respondents consume food products after the “best before” date. Laboratory tests of milk, pasta, mayonnaise and jam confirmed the microbiological safety of the products even six months after the “best before” date. Other features (texture, colour and sensory quality) slightly changed after one month for milk and mayonnaise (the colour had become more yellow) and after three months for pasta (its hardness had decreased) and jam (it had become browner). The possibility of extending the “best before” dates of selected durable foods could be considered, which could allow such products to legally be handed over to public benefit organisations, thereby reducing food wastage.

Tilapia can be commercialised to produce sausages. However, the use of minced tilapia or tilapia surimi as the raw material and different mixing durations of the ingredients using the bowl cutter during the sausage production could affect the quality of the products. This study determined the effects of different mixing durations (10, 15 or 20 min) on the physicochemical, microstructural and sensorial properties of sausages made from minced tilapia and tilapia surimi. The washing of the minced tilapia during the surimi production significantly increased the tilapia surimi moisture content and pH, while reducing the protein, fat and ash contents. Subsequently, the addition of other ingredients to produce the sausages influenced the moisture, fat, ash and carbohydrate contents of both types of sausages. The type of raw material and mixing duration showed significant interactions in terms of linear expansion, water holding capacity and colour properties of the sausages. Individually, the tilapia surimi sausage had a better linear expansion, cohesiveness, colour and sensory acceptability than the minced tilapia sausage. The mixing times of 15 and 20 min produced better results for the physicochemical and sensory properties of both types of sausages. However, the gel strengths of both types of sausages were better when mixed for 15 min and the microstructure images supported this. Based on the results obtained, this study concluded that tilapia surimi as the raw material with 15 min of mixing duration is recommended to produce a better-quality sausage.
