Thermal and rheological properties of batter systems

Xue, Jun, 1966- January 2007 (has links)
Batters are highly complex systems with wide ranging ingredients including flours, water, flavorings, and spices. Interactions between the ingredients determine the performance of batters and the final quality of coated products. Addition of hydrocolloids into batters of different types of flour provides special effects on batter performance. The functionalities of hydrocolloids-flour mixtures in terms of the thermal and rheological properties of the resulting batter systems were investigated in this study. / The rheological properties of the batter were determined using a strain/stress control rheometer. A steady state method was used to measure the viscosity as a function of the shear rate varying from 0.5 to 150 s-1 at 15°C. The resulting data was then fitted to the Herschel-Bulkley Model. The viscoelastic properties were monitored as a function of temperature and were determined using a dynamic oscillatory test. Two different temperature profiles were used to simulate cooking and storage processes. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to determine thermal properties (namely glass transition temperature, gelatinization temperature, ice melting temperature, and enthalpy) and to describe the phase transitions that occur during heating and cooling processes. / The rheological and thermal properties varied for different types of flours and their combination ratios, as well as different types of hydrocolloids at different concentrations. The replacement of corn flour greatly altered the viscosity and viscoelastic properties of wheat based and rice based batter systems. Using 100% corn flour based batter showed highest yield stress, whereas 100% rice flour based batter did not show any yield stress. Higher temperatures and longer times were required to gelatinize starch at the higher levels of rice flour for each batter system flour mix combination. The various combination ratios of the flours apparently did not significant influence the gelatinization temperatures of the batter systems. However they significantly influence the total enthalpies (DeltaHG) of the various samples. Wheat flour based batters showed the lowest glass transition temperatures. Thermal properties of wheat-based batters were influenced by the replacement of wheat with rice or corn flours. Corn flour based batters required considerably more energy for gelatinization during the cooking process. / Hydrocolloids lowered flow behavior index (n) and increased the consistency index (k) of all batters. The gums also changed the onset temperature of structure development and the storage and loss moduli of the batter systems. Hydrocolloids greatly influenced the thermal properties of batter systems. The gums shifted gelatinization temperature and depressed glass transition temperature of resulting batter systems. Further, MC increased the melting temperature (Tm) for the test batter systems as compared with the values for the control system without methylcellulose (MC). Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) did not show statistically significant effects on the total enthalpies of ice melting for all samples. However, MC and CMC showed more pronounced effects on rice, corn, and their combined flour based batters than it did on wheat flour based batters. However, this characteristic does not show in batter systems containing xanthan gum.

Efeitos da substituição de gordura vegetal hidrogenada nas propriedades estruturais de bolos / Effects of replacing hydrogenated vegetable fat on the structural properties of cakes

Rios, Raquel Vallerio 17 September 2014 (has links)
Muitas famílias não têm tempo de preparar bolos caseiros e acabam optando pela praticidade de comprar produtos prontos. A atitude dos consumidores, em relação aos problemas de saúde que podem advir do consumo de alimentos com alto teor de gorduras, é de consumir alimentos formulados de maneira que apresentem menores teores, mas com as mesmas características sensoriais dos produtos originais. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar o efeito da substituição de gordura vegetal hidrogenada por outros lipídeos (gordura de palma, óleo de soja, óleo de castanha do Brasil, óleo de coco) e por extrato de aveia em formulações de bolos. Foram elaboradas nove formulações contendo farinha de trigo, açúcar, ovo em pó, gordura, água, leite em pó integral, emulsificante, fermento químico e sal, substituindo-se a gordura vegetal hidrogenada pelos diferentes tipos de lipídeos e extrato de aveia. Formulações: (controle) gordura vegetal hidrogenada (GVH) - 100%; (1): gordura de palma - 100%; (2): óleo de soja - 100%; (3): óleo de castanha do Brasil - 100%; (4): óleo de coco - 100%; (5): extrato de aveia - 100%; (6): GVH - 50% + óleo de castanha do Brasil - 50%; (7): GVH - 50% + óleo de coco - 50%; (8): GVH - 50% + extrato de aveia - 50%. Através das análises de textura com probes back extrusion e de compressão (TPA-análise do perfil de textura) pode-se avaliar, respectivamente, o comportamento das massas de bolos e o shelf-life dos produtos finais durante seis dias de armazenamento. Foram feitas avaliações de volume específico, densidade, porosidade, composição centesimal e atividade de água - aw. A análise sensorial com 60 provadores foi realizada utilizando-se as formulações controle, óleo de coco, óleo de castanha do Brasil e extrato de aveia de acordo com a escala hedônica (9 pontos) e intenção de compra. A análise de textura (back extrusion) apontou diferentes comportamentos reológicos, embora todas as formulações caracterizaram-se como fluido dilatante (n>1). O resultado do shelf-life mostrou que o bolo produzido com extrato de aveia obteve melhores características de qualidade. O bolo produzido com GVH apresentou maior volume (2,65 mL/g), menor densidade (0,39 g/mL)e maior incorporação de ar (16,45 mm2). A análise de cor apontou que o bolo elaborado com GVH + óleo de coco apresentou-se mais amarelado (35,94) e o bolo com GVH + extrato de aveia com maior brilho (75,27). A composição centesimal mostrou as variações obtidas de acordo com a substituição de gordura por extrato de aveia e o menor valor calórico (257,62 kcal) para este produto. O resultado de aw mostrou maior valor para a formulação com extrato de aveia (0,94), sendo esperado devido ao maior conteúdo de água da formulação. A análise sensorial, através da avaliação de painel não treinado, indicou que o bolo elaborado com óleo de coco obteve a maior aceitação e, consequentemente, a maior intenção de compra, entretanto, apresentou pouca diferença em relação ao bolo controle. Em geral, os resultados mostraram ótimo padrão de qualidade dos bolos elaborados com a substituição da gordura vegetal hidrogenada, podendo-se assim, obter produtos com outras opções de ingredientes e com agregação de valor nutricional. / Many families do not have time to prepare homemade cakes and usually opt for the convenience of buying ready products. Consumer\'s attitudes regarding health issues, that may arise from the consumption of foods high in fat, is to consume foods that have formulated so low in fat, but with the same sensory characteristics of the original products. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of replacing hydrogenated vegetable fat for other lipids (fat palm, soybean oil, Brazil nut oil, coconut oil) and oat extract in cake formulations. Nine formulations containing flour, sugar, egg powder, fat, water, whole milk powder, emulsifier, baking powder, and salt were elaborated by replacing the hydrogenated vegetable fat for different types of lipids and oat extract. Formulations: (control) hydrogenated vegetable fat (GVH) - 100%; (1): palm fat - 100%; (2) soybean oil - 100%; (3): Brazil nut oil - 100%; (4) coconut oil - 100%; (5): oat extract - 100%; (6): GVH - 50% + nut oil from Brazil - 50%; (7) GVH - 50% Coconut oil + - 50%; (8): GVH - 50% + oat extract - 50%. The behavior of cakes batters and shelf life of the final product during six days of storage were assessed through the texture analysis with probes back extrusion and compression (TPA-texture profile analysis), respectively. The evaluation of specific volume, density, porosity, chemical composition and water activity - aw was made. Sensory analysis was performed with 60 tasters using the control formulations, coconut oil, Brazil nut oil l and oat extract according to the hedonic scale (9 points) and purchase intent. Texture analysis (back extrusion) showed different rheological behaviors, although all formulations were characterized as a dilatant fluid (n> 1). The result of the shelf-life showed that the cake made with oat extract produced better quality characteristics. The cake produced with GVH showed higher volume (2,65 mL/g), lower density (0,39 g/mL) and greater incorporation of air (16,45 mm2). The color analysis showed that the cake made with coconut oil + GVH presented more yellowness (35,94) and cake with GVH + oat extract presented higher brightness (75,27). The chemical composition showed variations obtained in accordance with the substitution of fat for oat extract and lower caloric value (257,62 kcal) for this product. The result showed higher aw value (0,94) for the formulation with oat extract, it is expected due to the higher water content of the formulation. The sensory analysis, through evaluating untrained panel, indicated that the cake prepared with coconut oil had the highest acceptance and, consequently, the higher purchase intention, although it presented little difference from the control cake. In general, the results showed great standard of quality cakes prepared by replacing the hydrogenated vegetable fat, leading to products with other options of ingredients and with added nutritional value.

Evaluation of acrylamide in foods and development of some strategies for its reduction

Sansano Tomás, Mariola 17 July 2018 (has links)
Although the presence of acrylamide in foods was detected a decade ago, public concern about this issue, and in general about food health, seems to have increased in recent years. Acrylamide is a toxic human carcinogen present mainly in foods from plant origin and subjected to transformation processes in which temperatures above 120 °C are reached, such as frying and baking. Foods that mostly contribute to the intake of acrylamide are: French fries and chips, coffee and coffee substitute, biscuits, bread, pastries, battered and breaded products, breakfast cereals ..., being children and adolescents the most exposed population. From a chemical point of view, acrylamide is formed mainly from the reaction, during thermal processing, between asparagine and reducing sugars, as an intermediate product of the Maillard reaction. In the last decade, both health authorities and the scientific community have made great efforts in scientifically establishing limits of toxicity as well as exploring strategies aimed at reducing acrylamide formation. The purpose of this doctoral thesis is framed in this last sense. On the one hand, our work has been focused on searching new strategies for acrylamide mitigation, in two different types of food: fried potatoes and battered products. The effect of an emerging frying technique, named hot air frying, as well as pre-frying treatments, were studied in fried potatoes. In the case of batters however, the strategy consisted in modifying their composition by adding a hydrocolloid, chitosan, after having tested its potential in model systems. Furthermore, the effect of chitosan addition on the physical properties of the batter formulations and on the quality of the final product was evaluated. Finally, acrylamide bioaccessibility of the food products with the highest acrylamide content was addressed. These food products were subjected to an in vitro gastrointestinal simulation in order to study how acrylamide content progressed throughout the digestion process. Results showed that air fried potatoes as well as chitosan addition to batter formulations reduced the formation of acrylamide by about 90 and 60 %, respectively. The modification of the characteristics of chitosan (molecular weight and deacetylation degree) conditioned its ability to reduce the formation of acrylamide. Furthermore, the incorporation of chitosan to batters reduced the absorption of fat during frying. Chitosan increased viscosity and consistency of batters but, the color and texture of the fried products were not significantly altered. The total replacement of wheat flour by rice flour allowed to obtain gluten-free batters with similar viscosity, when adding chitosan. This new formulation could be adjusted to gluten-free battered products. The simulation of in vitro digestion showed a significant increment of acrylamide after the gastric stage in a wide range of foods. However, acrylamide bioaccessibility (after the intestinal stage) was reduced until pre-digestion levels or even lower in chips and French fries. / Si bien es verdad que la presencia de acrilamida en alimentos se detectó hace más de una década, la preocupación por parte del consumidor, no sólo por este tema si en la alimentación saludable en general, parece haberse incrementado en los últimos años. La acrilamida es un tóxico posible carcinógeno humano presente principalmente en alimentos derivados de materias primas de origen vegetal y sometidos a procesos de transformación en los que se alcanzan temperaturas por encima de 120 ºC como la fritura y horneado. Los alimentos que contribuyen mayoritariamente a la ingesta de acrilamida son: patatas fritas (tipo French fries y chips), café y substituto de café, galletas, pan, bollería, rebozados y empanados, cereales de desayuno¿, siendo la exposición al tóxico superior por parte de población infantil y adolescente. Desde un punto de vista químico, la acrilamida se forma principalmente a partir de la reacción entre la asparagina y azúcares reductores durante el procesado térmico, como producto intermedio de las reacciones de Maillard. En la última década, tanto las autoridades sanitarias como la comunidad científica han puesto un gran empeño en establecer científicamente los límites de toxicidad y en la búsqueda de estrategias orientadas a reducir su formación. El cometido de esta tesis doctoral se enmarca en este último sentido. Por un lado, se ha trabajado en la búsqueda de nuevas estrategias para la reducción de acrilamida, en dos tipos de alimentos distintos: patatas fritas y masas de productos rebozados. En patatas fritas se estudió el efecto de una técnica emergente de fritura, concretamente la fritura por aire caliente, junto con tratamientos previos a la fritura. En masas de rebozados, en cambio, se optó por modificar la composición de estos, adicionando un hidrocoloide, el quitosano, después de haber ensayado su potencial en sistemas modelo. Además, se evaluó el efecto de la incorporación de quitosano sobre las propiedades físicas de la masa de rebozado y sobre la calidad del producto final. Por último y no por ello menos importante, se abordó la problemática de la acrilamida sobre la salud humana desde el punto de vista de su bioaccesibilidad. Para ello, se seleccionaron los productos con mayor contenido en acrilamida dietética y se sometieron a una simulación gastrointestinal in vitro con el fin de conocer los cambios experimentados por el tóxico durante este proceso y determinar su bioaccesibilidad. Los resultados mostraron que la fritura de patatas por aire caliente, así como la incorporación de quitosano a las masas de rebozado reducían la formación de acrilamida alrededor de un 90 y 60 %, respectivamente. La modificación de las características del quitosano (en cuanto a masa molecular y grado de desacetilación) condicionó su capacidad de reducir la formación de acrilamida. La incorporación de quitosano redujo la absorción de grasa durante la fritura de las masas. Si bien aumentó la viscosidad y consistencia de éstas, no se vio alterado significativamente el color y la textura del producto final frito. La substitución total de harina de trigo por harina de arroz permitió obtener masas de rebozado sin gluten con semejante viscosidad, al adicionar quitosano. Esta nueva formulación podría ser adaptada a productos rebozados sin gluten. La simulación de digestión in vitro mostró aumentos significativos de acrilamida tras la fase gástrica en una amplia gama de alimentos. Sin embargo, la bioaccesibildad de acrilamida (tras la fase intestinal) se redujo hasta niveles previos a la digestión o incluso menores, en patatas fritas tipo chips y tipo French fries. / Si bé és veritat que la presència d'acrilamida en aliments es va detectar fa més d'una dècada, la preocupació per part del consumidor, no només per aquest tema si no en l'alimentació saludable en general, sembla haver-se incrementat en els últims anys. L'acrilamida és un tòxic possible carcinogen per a l'èsser humà present principalment en aliments derivats de matèries primeres d'origen vegetal i sotmesos a processos de transformació en els quals s'assoleixen temperatures majors a 120 ºC, com el procés de fregida o al forn. Els aliments que contribueixen majoritàriament a la ingesta d'acrilamida són: creïlles fregides (tipus French fries i chips), cafè i substitut de cafè, galetes, pa, brioixeria, arrebossats i empanats, cereals d'esmorzar ..., sent l'exposició al tòxic superior per part de població infantil i adolescent. Des d'un punt de vista químic, l'acrilamida es forma principalment a partir de la reacció entre l'asparagina i sucres reductors durant el processat tèrmic, com producte intermedi de les reaccions de Maillard. En l'última dècada, tant les autoritats sanitàries com la comunitat científica han posat un gran esforç a establir científicament els límits de toxicitat i en la recerca d'estratègies orientades a reduir la seva formació. La comesa d'aquesta tesi doctoral s'emmarca en aquest últim sentit. D'una banda, s'ha treballat en la recerca de noves estratègies per a la reducció d'acrilamida, en dos tipus d'aliments diferents: creïlles fregides i masses de productes arrebossats. En creïlles fregides es va estudiar l'efecte d'una tècnica emergent de fregit, concretament el fregit per aire calent, juntament amb tractaments previs al fregit. En masses d'arrebossats, en canvi, es va optar per modificar la composició d'aquests, addicionant un hidrocol·loide, el quitosà, després d'haver assajat el seu potencial en sistemes model. A més, es va avaluar l'efecte de la incorporació de quitosà sobre les propietats físiques de la massa d'arrebossat i sobre la qualitat del producte final. Finalment i no per això menys important, es va abordar la problemàtica de l'acrilamida sobre la salut humana des del punt de vista de la seva bioaccesibilidad. Per a això, es van seleccionar els productes amb major contingut en acrilamida dietètica i es van sotmetre a una simulació gastrointestinal in vitro per tal de conèixer els canvis experimentats pel tòxic durant aquest procés i determinar la seva bioaccesibilidad. Els resultats van mostrar que el fregit de creïlles per aire calent, així com la incorporació de quitosà a les masses d'arrebossat reduïen la formació d'acrilamida al voltant d'un 90 i 60%, respectivament. La modificació de les característiques del quitosà (quant a massa molecular i grau de desacetilación) va condicionar la seva capacitat de reduir la formació d'acrilamida. La incorporació de quitosà va reduir l'absorció de greix durant el fregit de les masses. Si bé va augmentar la viscositat i consistència d'aquestes, no es va veure alterat significativament el color i la textura del producte final fregit. La substitució total de farina de blat per farina d'arròs va permetre obtenir masses d'arrebossat sense gluten amb semblant viscositat, en addicionar quitosà. Aquesta nova formulació podria ser adaptada a productes arrebossats sense gluten. La simulació de digestió in vitro va mostrar augments significatius d'acrilamida després de la fase gàstrica en una àmplia gamma d'aliments. No obstant això, la bioaccesibildad d'acrilamida (després de la fase intestinal) es va reduir fins a nivells previs a la digestió o fins i tot menors, en creïlles fregides tipus chips i tipus French fries. / Sansano Tomás, M.

The tolerance of some batters and doughs for fortification with non-fat dried milk solids

Aydlett, Elizabeth Lamb 08 September 2012 (has links)
The merits of fortifying baked products such as biscuits, chocolate cakes, muffins, and yeast rolls with non-fat dried milk solids at six concentrations were compared. Baked products were used because the majority of older people consume fairly large quantities of them, and this group of people needs added milk in their diets. / Master of Science

“Det råder ingen tvekan om att gärningsmannen i regel kommer att vara en man och offret en kvinna” : En kvalitativ dokumentstudie om riktlinjer för arbetet med män som utövar våld mot kvinnor i nära relationer / "There is no doubt that the perpetrator usually is a man and the victim a woman" : A qualitative documentary study on policies regarding men who use intimate partner violence against women.

Nilsson, Ebba, Grethes, Vilma January 2022 (has links)
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att analysera hur representationen av män som utövar partnervåld förändrats över en trettioårig tidsperiod i riktlinjer gällande socialnämndens arbete med våld i nära relationer. Genom en kvalitativ dokumentstudie undersöktes 12 dokument rörande riktlinjer för socialnämndens arbete med våld i nära relationer från tidsnedslagen 1990-1998, 2005-2009, 2014-2016 samt 2020-2022. Tre dokument per tidsnedslag. Studien undersökte på vilket sätt våldsutövande män identifieras i riktlinjerna, vilka diskurser som kan utläsas ur riktlinjerna gällande våldsutövande män samt om representationen av våldsutövande män förändrats i riktlinjerna över tid. Uppsatsen har haft en abduktiv ansats tillsammans med en ontologisk utgångspunkt i det socialkonstruktivistiska perspektivet. Riktlinjerna analyserades utifrån Bacchis policyanalys “What’s the problem represented to be?”, som är en form av kvalitativ diskursanalys, samt utifrån tidigare forskning och valda teoretiska ramverk. Ett första resultat har visat på att våldsutövande män identifierats som “problemet” i riktlinjerna. Genom att identifieras som orsaken till våldet tilldelas männen även en maktposition där de har makten att upprätthålla våldet. Männen beskrivs utöva våldet i syfte att uttrycka en “manlig identitet”. Ett andra resultat har visat att diskurser som kunnat utläsas handlar om könsroller där männen beskrivs som “starka” och kvinnorna som “svaga”. Detta stärks genom hur insatserna är utformade och vem som anses ha rätt till stöd. Genus har därmed spelat en stor roll kring att förklara grunden till de diskurser gällande våldsutövande män, som kunnat utläsas ur riktlinjerna. Ett tredje resultat har även visat att representationen av våldsutövande män i riktlinjerna förändrats över tid. I de tidigare dokumenten används könsmaktsperspektivet som förklaringsmodell och våldsutövare beskrivs som en homogen grupp. I de senare dokumenten beskrivs våldsutövare som en heterogen grupp, där vikt läggs vid individuella orsaker snarare än kön.
