摘要:
Nucleic acid molecules are described encoding a starch granule-bound protein as well as methods and recombinant DNA molecules for the production of transgenic plant cells and plants synthesizing a modified starch with modified viscosity properties and a modified phosphate content. Moreover, the plant cells and plants resulting from those methods as well as the starch obtainable therefrom are described.

摘要:
Basic cleaning compositions using toxicologically-acceptable ingredients for treating food such as produce, e.g., fruits and vegetables, and edible animal proteins are provided. Liquid formulations comprising, optionaly, less than about 0.5% detergent surfactat, such as potassium alkyl sulfate, that does not affect palatability and basic buffer to provide a pH of at least 10.5 are applied to food products immediately before consumption and allowed to stay for at least about one half minute to significantly reduce microorganism contamination. The food can be consumed without rinsing.
摘要:
The object of the present invention is to manufacture novel food products that are delicious and nutritious, by utilizing the characteristic of a deep sea layer, a low temperature and high pressure (environment). It comprises the following steps: a step of sealing food materials into a bag or container into the sea to allow it to sink into a deep sea water layer, 200 m or more below sea level; a step of throwing down the food product sealed in said bag or container; a step of keeping said bag or container at the aforementioned deep sea water layer for at least 30 minutes or more; and a step of lifting said bag or container on the sea.
摘要:
An anti-oxidation technique for treating raw foods, such as nuts and seeds, so as to make them oxidation-resistant. In the technique of the present invention, foodstuffs such as nuts, seeds, etc., are heated under pressure in a tightly closed vessel, so that the texture of the raw food materials is slightly softened, and so that the moisture activity value is at the same time adjusted to a value in the polymolecular-layer moisture region of approximately 0.3-0.4. As a result, the water molecules are absorbed on the surfaces of the lipid molecules so that a polymolecular layer of water is formed and strong bonds between the water and proteins act synergistically to prevent penetration of oxygen into the interior texture of the foodstuff, such as nuts, thus conspicuously hindering oxidation.
摘要:
Particulate material such as food is heat treated in a cylindrical vessel by only partially filing the vessel under vacuum and agitating the material while injecting steam. The material is then flash cooled and withdrawn under nitrogen pressure.

摘要:
A method of nondestructively measuring the sugar content of fruit comprising irradiating the fruit with near infrared radiation such that the radiation penetrates the fruit; measuring the absorbance at a given wavelength with a wavelength selector that is placed in the optical path of the near infrared radiation; normalizing the obtained absorbance, taking account of the size of the fruit; and finding an index of the sweetness of the fruit from the normalized measured absorbance. Thus, the sugar content of fruits, especially of fruits having thick skins, can be measured nondestructively with practically acceptable accuracy.
