The Effect of Post-Cooking Holding Times on Sensory Assessment of Low- and High-Fat Beefburgers

ABSTRACT: The effect of post-cooking holding-time on sensory assessment of low (89 g/kg) and high (218 g/kg) fat beefburgers was assessed. Burgers were served to panelists approximately 3 or 18 min after cooking. Fat content influenced fattiness, moistness/juiciness and overall appearance (P < 0.05), overall acceptability and overall texture (P< 0.01) and tenderness and crumbliness (p<0.001). Burgers with the higher fat content had higher scores. Holding-time influenced sensory overall appearance only with lower scores at extended holding times (P < 0.01). Treatment differences were small, mostly less than one sensory scale unit. Higher lightness and yellowness values were found for burgers with higher fat contents.

Stable redesign of predictive control

The paper deals with I/O versions of receding horizon controllers based on the minimization of multistep quadratic costs with the constraint that the terminal state goes to zero. The resulting control law yields stable closed-loop systems under sharp conditions. Simulation results are presented to both verify the theoretical analysis and relate the new control law with GPC     

Approximate feedback linearization of discrete-time non-linear systems using virtual input direct design

The design of feedback-linearization and poles-placement controllers for discrete-time non-linear plants, using Input/Output/State measurements only, is typically addressed via indirect design. In this paper we propose the use of a new technique, based on a Virtual Input Direct Design (VID²) approach. The main feature of such a technique is to reduce the control design problem into a standard non-linear mapping approximation problem, without calling for the preliminary construction of an appropriate model of the plant. As compared with the existing methods, the new one requires less computational effort, while taking full advantage of the non-linear approximation software tools already available. In this paper, the new method is described, a simple theoretical analysis is given, and some numerical examples are presented.     

Histamine determination in tears as an index of safety in use of cosmetic products

To assess ocular irritancy caused by chemical and cosmetic products a reliable method based on evaluation of histamine (Hm) in tears is presented. Hm is measured at picomole levels by HPLC and fluorimetric detection after fluorescamine-HM derivatization. In order to avoid any uncontrolled irritation and stimulation of the conjunctiva during sample collection, a procedure of conjunctiva lavage was developed. A balanced salt solution (50 μl) containing a known amount of Hm-fluorophore as reference standard is instilled in the conjunctiva fornix. After a few seconds 20 μl of tear fluid is collected: 10 μl are immediately analysed and 10 μl after derivatization reaction. In this way it is possible to evaluate tear dilution and to assess Hm content in less than 10 minutes.
In a group of 20 normal subjects Hm has been determined in comparison with that of two volunteers after topical application of 50 μ of 0.2% and 0.4% sodium lauryl sulphate solution. A contact of 30 seconds of the cosmetic ingredient caused an immediate dose-dependent Hm release through a direct cytotoxic damage of cell membranes due to the surfactant action.

低渗透油藏生产井关井测压时间的计算与应用

低渗透油藏的生产井压裂后，在单井试油试采过程中，压力恢复测试关井时间不同，其中有些井压力恢复曲线不能出现边界反应段，渗流不能反映地层中真实流动特征。针对这种情况，基于长庆绥靖油田塞39井区长：低渗透油藏大量试井和实际生产资料，利用现代试井解释理论，研究合理关井时间的界限及其计算方法。结果表明，当油井关井测压时间达到3倍地层径向流开始出现的时间后，利用此时的压力数据解释地层参数和地层压力，其结果的误差小于5％，同时能较准确地判断边界类型。计算的理论曲线和霍纳法解释值非常接近，对于塞39井区，若预先知道某生产井地层有效渗透率值，可从理论曲线查出压力恢复试井的关井时间，否则，建议按照该井区地层有效渗透率（大约在6mD左右），将不稳定试井测试时间控制在25d以上为宜。图4表3参14     

Process Variables, Gelatinized Starch and Moisture Effects on Physical Properties of Mungbean Noodles

The effects of amounts of gelatinized starch and moisture in the final slurry or dough, cooking time, holding time, and holding temperature on physical properties of mungbean noodles were studied. Cooking loss, cutting stress, work to cut, and transparency of noodles were measured. Moisture content of the final slurry or dough, cooking time, and holding temperature were the most important factors that affected physical properties of mungbean noodles. Processing should be done at moisture contents not exceeding 55%, cooking times not longer than 40 set, and holding temperatures not lower than 3° using 5% of total starch as gelatinized starch and holding time of 36 hr.
