Even today, the Formula Method at an early stage is widely used in food manufacturing because of its ease of use. However, due to advances in thermal processing systems, the range in which this Formula Method can be used has been limited in recent years. To overcome this problem, author proposed the Ambient Temperature Slide method based on a new idea in 2006. The correlation equation, which includes two parameters, heat-transfer coefficient and delay-time, was theoretically obtained using two hypotheses from the expansion of the heat-balance equation. The purpose of this time is to verify the hypothesis of the delay-time δ left behind in the previous third report and finally complete the ATS method theory, and to compare and verify it with Ball Formula Method which represents conventional methods. Both use common sterilizing data that can be investigated for versatility. In this case, the result of the latter comparative verification is also the verification of the former. The ATS method has now been verified for versatility been based on accuracy, confirming all of its outstanding accuracy, versatility, and simplicity.","PeriodicalId":39399,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Food Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46080415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A sodium hypochlorite aqueous solution at 50 ℃ was used for the decontamination treatment and regarded as the medium for the mild heat treatment. The initial gas composition and concentrations of active MAP were 9.0 % O 2 , 13.0 % CO 2 , and 78 % N 2 . The results for 9 days of storage showed that the aerobic plate count (APC, Log 10 CFU/g) during storage for the solo-MA and HT + MA combination was under 6 and comparatively lower than that of the control and solo-HT. This result indicated that solo-HT had a lower role in reducing bacterial growth. In contrast, solo-HT, similar to solo-MA and HT + MA combination, moderated the variation of the hue angle ( H °), which is an index of the degree of browning fresh-cut celery surface during storage. Additionally, the solo-HT and HT + MA combination prevented phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity and the relative increase in apparent polyphenol content, which is associated with the reduction of browning during storage. These results showed that the HT + MA combination could extend the storage stability of fresh-cut celery.","PeriodicalId":39399,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Food Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41347455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a model separation system, two polyphenol component separation by polymer-resin chromatography with ethanol-water mobile phase was chosen. HETP values as a function of mobile phase velocity for a wide range of temperatures 15-45 ℃ were well correlated by a single universal curve in the dimensionless HETP and the dimensionless velocity plots. A simplified equation that can predict the resolution was derived. The equation includes the temperature dependence of the distribution coefficients and the molecular diffusion coefficients. The relative separation performance (resolution) calculated by this equation showed that the existence of the maximum resolution depends on the temperature dependence of the distribution coefficients. Even when the resolution decreases with temperature, higher temperature operations may be advantageous as both the separation time and the separation volume decrease.","PeriodicalId":39399,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Food Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48794674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Characteristic features of Junmai Ginjo such as acidity, amino acid content, glucose and nine volatile components were used as objective variables. Explanatory variables were the 99 peak data obtained by an e-nose and seven sensor data obtained by an e-tongue. The prediction accuracy by the partial least squares regression method using e-nose and e-tongue data was 7.57 average error% (the ratio of the mean absolute error to the component value range). With the application of other regression analyses (multiple regression analysis, support-vector machine, random forest, gradient boosting), the prediction accuracy was improved for all components except the acidity and amino acid content. With the application of other regression analyses and the addition of the data of seven simplified analyses (Brix, pH, electrical conductivity, OD260, OD280, simplified alcohol content, simplified glucose content), the prediction accuracy was improved for all components. (average error%: 5.04) The analysis conditions ( i.e. , the regression analysis and the dataset of explanatory variables) for the best score differed depending on the component.

In the fluidized bed granulation process of food powder, fine partic les are formed to large granule usually by spraying aqueous solution of polysaccharide as binder. The water added to the powder materials plays an essential role for the growth of granule, however, excessive moisture spoils the quality of granule products and elongate the processing time and successive drying period of the granule. This article summarizes a development process of new fluidized bed granulation technique using steam-water two-phase (SWTP) binder. This article firstly introduces a model to describe moisture content of fluidized bed as a function of time and binder spraying rate for the conventional granulation process using liquid binder. The model was consequently extended for the process using SWTP binder by considering condensation of steam to the powder materials and evaporation of binder droplets. The model developed in these studies was used to determine the binder spraying conditions for each binder to compare the granule growth at equivalent profile of moisture content. It was found that the SWTP binder decreased the amount of water used in the process to 40 ~ 84% comparing with conventional liquid binder.","PeriodicalId":39399,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Food Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42303088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, we tried 3D printing of soft foods by using a combination of protein and gelling agent. And the effects of proteins and gelling agents were investigated. The results showed that 3D printing of soft foods can be performed by using a combination of protein and gelling agent and then extruding in a temperature range where the gelling agent does not completely gel and has fluidity after thermal denaturation of protein. Protein contributed to maintaining fluidity and retaining the shape of the discharged line, and gelling agent contributed to retaining the shape of the discharged line and adhering the layers. Furthermore, instead of protein, thermosetting gelling agent and thermoplastic gelling agent having a high gelation temperature also can be used.","PeriodicalId":39399,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Food Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46964032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The thermodynamic parameters obtained from water sorption isotherms relate to the degree of reduction in the glass transition temperature ( T g ), accompanied by water sorption. The difference between the chemical potential of solid (adsorbent) between a solution and a pure solid, Δ G as , which is obtained from water sorption isotherms by solution thermodynamics, is correlated well with Δ T g ( ≡ T g T g0 ; where T g0 is T g of dry material).
