Listeria spp. in Street-Vended Ready-to-Eat Foods.
2011
Street-vended ready-to-eat food sold in Egypt, including sandwiches and dishes of traditional food, was examined for the presence ofListeriaspecies. Out of 576 samples, 24% were found to containListeriaspecies.L. monocytogenesandL. innocuawere isolated from 57% and 39% of the contaminated samples, respectively. OtherListeriaspp. were detected with lower frequency.L. monocytogenesof ≥103 CFU/g were detected in 7% of the total examined samples, which represent 49% of the contaminated food samples (meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, and products of plant origin). Most of the samples contaminated byL. monocytogeneshad high levels of total viable bacterial counts. The results obtained may h…
Phosphatbedarf und Sch�den durch hohe Phosphatzufuhr
1959
Die wunschenswerte Hohe der Phosphatzufuhr fur den nicht schwer korperlich arbeitenden Menschen betragt 1–2 g im Tag. Bilanzversuche und statistische Auswertung des Lebensmittelkonsums zeigen, das eine in diesem Bereich gelegene Aufnahme auch in der Tat erreicht wird. Vielfach, insbesondere bei lacco-vegetabilen Ernahrungsformen, sind die Aufnahmen wesentlich groser.
Effects of texture and temperature on the kinetic of aroma release from model dairy custards
2010
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6T6R-4YYRMXD-2/2/9ac9167b05d21ef9ff6dcce684696e13 http://www.elsevier.com/locate/foodchem; International audience; The structure of a foodstuff, and its perceived texture, are important characteristics involved in the sensory availability of flavour compounds released during the food consumption. This study identifies the effect of texture on the dynamic release of aroma compounds under simulated oral conditions (temperature and shearing). Two custard desserts, with two levels of texture but the same composition, flavoured with four aroma compounds, were analysed. The rheological behaviour of the custards and the release of aroma compounds (SPME…
Milk versus caseinophosphopeptides added to fruit beverage: Resistance and release from simulated gastrointestinal digestion
2010
The influence of simulated gastrointestinal digestion on caseinophosphopeptides (CPPs) formation in milk-based fruit beverage was evaluated, together with resistance of a pool of CPPs added to fruit beverage. In milk-based fruit beverage, four CPPs were identified that can be justified by their presence in raw milk or due to processing. When it was subjected to simulated gastrointestinal digestion, 10 CPPs were identified, and only 1 presented the cluster (SpSpSpEE) (3 phosphoseryl group followed by 2 glutamic acid residues), which corresponded to αs2-CN(1-19)4P. CPPs added to fruit beverage are resistant to simulated gastrointestinal digestion, and 16 CPPs were identified originating from …
Diet matters, particularly in pregnancy – Results from MoBa studies of maternal diet and pregnancy outcomes
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Norsk Epidemiologi. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.ntnu.no/ojs/index.php/norepid/article/view/1805/1802 Open Access Awareness that maternal diet may influence the outcome of pregnancy as well as the long-term health of mother and child has increased in recent years. A new food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was developed and validated specifically for the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa). The MoBa FFQ is a semi-quantitative tool which covers the average intake of food, beverages and dietary supplements during the first 4 to 5 months of pregnancy. It includes questions about intakes of 255 foods and dishes and was…
Microbial contamination of milk and dairy products from restaurants in Spain
2009
This study was carried out to evaluate the microbiological quality of milk and some dairy products, including 95 lots of warm milk, 95 lots of milk conserved at room temperature, and 75 lots of dairy products collected from restaurants in Spain. According to the European microbiological criteria (92/46/EEC, 93/43/EEC, and Commission Regulation No. 2073/2005), 31% and 35% of the total examined lots exceed the adopted limits of mesophilic aerobic counts and Enterobacteriaceae, respectively. This may be due to incorrect handling of milk and dairy products and inadequate cleaning and sanitization of milk container. Further, 2% of all the lots examined were positive for the presence of Escherich…
In situ riboflavin fortification of different kefir-like cereal-based beverages using selected Andean LAB strains.
2018
Cereal-based functional beverages represent social, economic, and environmental sustainable opportunities to cope with emerging trends in food consumption and global nutrition. Here we report, for the first time, the polyphasic characterization of three cereal-based kefir-like riboflavin-enriched beverages, obtained from oat, maize and barley flours, and their comparison with classical milk-based kefir. The four matrices were successfully fermented with commercial starters: i) milk-kefir and ii) water-kefir, proving the potential of cereal ingredients in the formulation of dairy-like fermented beverages with milk-kefir starter behavior better in these matrices. In the light of their potenti…
Use of gases to improve survival of Bifidobacterium bifidum by modifying redox potential in fermented milk
2011
The aim of this work was to study the effect of the oxidoreduction potential, modified using gas, on the growth and survival of a probiotic strain, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and 2 yogurt strains, Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus. Three fermented milks were manufactured with an initial oxidoreduction potential value adjusted to +440 mV (control milk), +350 mV (milk gassed with N(2)), and -300 mV [milk gassed with N(2) plus 4% (vol/vol) H(2) (N(2)-H(2))]. Acidification profiles, growth during milk fermentation and survival during storage at 4 °C for 28 d were determined. This study showed that fermented probiotic dairy products made from milk gassed with…
Colour assessment of milk and milk products using computer vision system and colorimeter
2021
Abstract A computer vision system (CVS) and a colorimeter were compared for their abilities to measure the colour of twenty-seven different milks and milk products. The frequency of similarity test showed that CVS-generated colour chips were similar to the actual sample colour in all trials (100%). The CVS-obtained colours were found to be more similar to the colour of sample visualised on the monitor, compared with colorimeter-generated colour chips, with values of 83.3–100.0% depending on the milk product. The third test showed that there was difference between colour measured by CVS and the colorimeter; colorimeter readings resulted in a darker and yellower colour based on average L∗a∗b∗…
Milk as an Essential Source of Iodine in Latvian Population
2017
Abstract Milk and dairy products are studied as alternative iodine sources, because salt iodisation is controversial due to high salt consumption leading to cardiovascular diseases. However, the iodine concentration in milk markedly varies. This study evaluated the iodine concentration in cow’s milk available in the Latvian market. Iodine and fat concentration was analysed with a spectrophotometer “Varian Cary 50” based ISO 2446:2008 in 20 milk samples. Data from the Central Statistical Bureau and survey among pregnant women were used to analyse milk product consumption and its impact on iodine status. Average iodine concentration in milk samples was 457.6 (179.6) μg/L, winter samples had a…
