摘要:
Antimicrobial combinations containing a sorbate preservative, natamycin and a dialkyl dicarbonate at levels below the taste threshold for each of these antimicrobials but such that combination is effective against food spoilage microorganisms. These antimicrobial combinations are useful in treating beverages, especially dilute juice beverages, calcium fortified beverages, beverages containing tea solids, and beverages containing milk solids and proteins, as well as other acidified, high water activity food and beverage products such as cheese, sausage, ready-to-spread frostings, salad dressings, mayonnaise, and the like, that are susceptible to food spoilage microorganisms, including yeasts such as Zygosaccharomyces bailii.

摘要:
A process for producing an essential oil. The essential oil can be white mustard essential oil. The white mustard essential oil can include a moisture sensitive isothiocyanate compound. The moisture sensitive isothiocyanate compound can be 4-HBITC. The essential oil can be produced from mustard seed, which can comprise a precursor sinalbin and myrosinase enzyme. The mustard seed can be reduced into a powder. Activation of the myrosinase enzyme by using a water solvent and a promoter to form a slurry can be performed, wherein the myrosinase enzyme catalyzes the production of an essential oil comprising an isothiocyanate from the sinalbin precursor.

A process for enhancing theanine extraction from plant material through a series of extraction, adsorption and filtration steps. More specifically, disclosed is a process for isolating theanine from a plant material, which includes the steps of: a) contacting the plant material with a solvent to obtain an extract comprising theanine; b) contacting the theanine extract with an adsorbent to obtain a theanine-containing eluate; and c) subjecting the theanine eluate to a filtration step to obtain a theanine-rich extract.

Green tea extracts having improved clarity and color. These extracts are obtained by treating the green tea extract with an amount of a food grade cation exchange resin effective to remove metal cations present in the extract. The treated extract is then contacted nanofiltration membrane while the treated extract is at a temperature of from about 100.degree. to about 140.degree. F. (from about 37.8.degree. to about 60.degree. C.) to provide a filtered green tea extract as the permeate. These green tea extracts can be included in a variety of beverages and are especially useful in suppressing the characteristic aftertaste of aspartame in diet beverages.
摘要:
A process for the production of green tea extracts is disclosed comprising the steps of (a) extracting tea materials with an acidified aqueous solution comprising erythorbic acid or ascorbic acid and citric acid and mixtures thereof at specified ratios, (b) separating extract from residual tea material (c) mixing the extract containing solution with gelatin, and (d) separating the precipitates formed under a nitrogen blanket. The resultant tea extracts are stable against precipitation, have reduced bitter and astringent flavors, low levels of polymerized or oxidized flavanols and resist browning. The extracts are especially suitable for use in beverages with added colorant where brown color is not desired.
摘要:

In one embodiment, the methods comprise providing a solid food product comprising an isothiocyanate compound and exposing the solid food product to energy input to cause thermal heat. In one embodiment the energy input may be microwave radiation.
摘要:
A process for acidifying and preserving a food product. The process can include providing a food product having an initial pH, acidifying the food product to a final pH to produce an acidified food product, treating the acidified food product with a preservative composition comprising a moisture sensitive isothiocyanate compound, wherein the acidifying and treating produce an acidified and preserved food product.
