摘要:
A method for reducing sorbic acid precipitation during manufacture and storage of stable preserved syrup. A microemulsion of a sorbic acid compound, a non-aqueous solvent, and a surfactant is made in water. Syrup ingredients are added to a bulk quantity of liquid, and the microemulsion is added to the liquid. In another aspect, a sorbic acid compound is dissolved in an oil-based ingredient of the syrup. Syrup ingredients are added to a bulk quantity of liquid, and a sorbic acid compound-containing oil-based ingredient is added to the liquid. A further aspect is directed to a method for reducing sorbic acid precipitation during manufacture and storage of stable preserved syrup. A sorbic acid compound and polysorbate are dissolved in water. Syrup ingredients are added to a bulk quantity of liquid, and a sorbic acid compound-containing fluid is added to the liquid.
摘要:
A method for increasing the concentration of terpene compounds in liquids, especially beverages, comprises adding a flavor compound more polar than the terpene compound to the latter and forming a microemulsion in the presence of a surfactant.
摘要:
A complex coacervate delivery system is provided which encapsulates water- insoluble flavorants. The complex coacervate delivery system provides a stable dispersion of water-insoluble flavorant in an aqueous system, and also protects the flavorant from degradation, e.g., by oxidation or hydrolysis. The complex coacervate delivery system upon ingestion is operative to release at least a substantial portion of the flavorant in the mouth in a pH-controlled manner. The complex coacervate delivery system may be included in a food or beverage product having a pH value within the range of about 1.5 to about 5.0.
摘要:
An anhydrous flavor delivery composition comprising a water-insoluble component, a surfactant and an alcohol is provided. In addition, a method of making the anhydrous flavor delivery composition and a method of flavoring a beverage are provided.
摘要:
A complex coacervate delivery system is provided which encapsulates lipophilic nutrients such as, for example, fish oils high in omega-3 fatty acids. The complex coacervate delivery system protects the lipophilic nutrient from degradation, e.g., oxidation and hydrolysis, and also reduces or eliminates the unpleasant taste and odor of the lipophilic nutrient. The complex coacervate delivery system upon ingestion is operative to substantially release the lipophilic nutrient in the lower gastrointestinal tract in a pH-controlled manner. The complex coacervate delivery system may be included in a food or beverage product having a pH value within the range of about 1.5 to about 5.0.
摘要:
A combination of a sugar alcohol and D-tagatose is used to produce naturally sweetened, diet beverages or food products. The sugar alcohol and D-tagatose can also be used in combination with one or more nutritive sweeteners to lower the calories of a full-calorie beverage or food product while preserving the taste.
摘要:
Methods for measuring physico-chemical properties using a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer are disclosed, including methods to determine an initial amount of a substance, usually a liquid, contained inside a porous material and an initial amount of the substance, usually a liquid, present outside the porous material, methods to measure the release kinetics of a substance, such as a liquid, from a porous material, and methods for performing chemical reactions and other physico-chemical operations in situ inside a nuclear magnetic resonance probe after a sample is loaded into a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer. The apparatuses for performing these methods are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of preparing a polysaccharide-protein fiber by preparing an aqueous solution comprising a polysaccharide and a protein, applying a high voltage to the solution, collecting the fiber on a collecting plate.
摘要:
A combination of one or more non-nutritive sweeteners, a sugar alcohol and D-tagatose are included in a zero- or low-calorie beverage or food product to achieve a taste substantially similar to that of a full-calorie beverage or food product. The combination is suitable for use in zero- or low-calorie frozen carbonated beverages.
