Effect of Green Tea Extract in Reducing the Formation of Acrylamide From Bread Baking Process
(Auckland University of Technology, 2016)Bread is one of the most famous foods worldwide. It is consumed as a staple food for many Western countries and contains high content of carbohydrates. Nowadays, an increasing number of people prefer healthy foods. Tea ... -
Effect of High Pressure Processing (HPP) and Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) on Digestibility of New Zealand Chilled Lamb
(Auckland University of Technology, 2016)Lamb is one of the widely consumed meats in New Zealand owing to its flavor and high nutritional value such as protein, mineral and vitamins. Recently, High Pressure Processing (HPP) and Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) have ... -
Effect of High Pressure Processing (HPP) and Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) Processing on Digestibility of Frozen Lamb
(Auckland University of Technology, 2016)Lamb is a popular meat source in New Zealand which contains of protein, fat and other micro-elements. The lamb meat is frozen after slaughter to increase its shelf life and to decrease the cost on transportation. However, ... -
Effects of Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) processing on physicochemical and flavour characteristics of fresh and frozen-thawed beef muscles
(Auckland University of Technology, 2015)PEF treatment is a new non-thermal food processing technique, which can improve food quality and extend shelf-life. This study investigated the effects of pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment on the sensory attributes, ... -
