  1. Development and evaluation of a vacuum impregnation system for enhancement of biochemical properties of food materials

    • Journal of Food Science and Technology
    • Vacuum impregnation is a novel methodology for adding various substances to porous foods. This study aimed to develop a cost effective automate system for vacuum impregnation of food materials to enhance their nutritional, functional and sensory properties depending on the functionality of the impregnation solution.

  2. Browning inhibition on fresh-cut apple by the immersion of liquid endosperm from mature coconuts

    • Journal of Food Science and Technology
    • The application of natural antibrowning agents for fresh-cut products has been recently considered. This study manifested the efficiency of coconut liquid endosperm, coconut water (CW), from mature tall (cooking) coconut (C-CW) and yellow dwarf coconut (Y-CW) on browning inhibition of ‘Gala’ apple wedges during storage at 4 ± 1 °C for 9 days. The apple wedges were immersed in water (control), C-CW or Y-CW for 1 min.
