Various Types Of Flavors And Their Isolation/Extraction Methods In Detail

Head Space sampling – Static Headspace: Direct analysis of the equilibrium headspace above a food product would appear to be an ideal method for aroma studies. It is very simple, gentle, and easily automated. In this method, one places a food sample into a vessel, closes the vessel with an inert septum (Teflon-lined), allows equilibration …

Estimation of Total Phenol Content (TPC) And Antioxidant Activity (AA) in Fruit/Vegetable Peels

POMEGRANATE PEELS Because of their high polyphenol content, fruit and vegetable by-products have lately been proposed as natural food additives. Total phenolic content was calculated using the Folin-Ciocalteu method, and antioxidant capacity was determined using DPPH Radical-Scavenging Assay (RSA). Pomegranate peels showed the highest values of total phenolic content 212.3 mg GAE/g do and antioxidant …

Crystallization: Meaning And Overview In Food Technology

Crystallization is a separation process, widely applied in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry. The principle of crystallization is based on the limited solubility of a compound in a solvent at a certain temperature, pressure, etc. A change of these conditions to a state where the solubility is lower will lead to the formation of a …
