What are the 5 major pigments | Myoglobin Anthycyanins Betalains Caratenoids Chlorophylls |
What pigment is found in muscle tissue of animals | Myoglobin |
do older animals have more of less myoglobin? | more |
beef and lamb | 7 mg myoglobin/g |
pork | 2 mg myoglobin/g |
what is myoglobin composed of | globin and heme |
what is heme composed of | iron and 4 pyrole units |
how many binding sites does iron have | 6 |
what is the main function of myoglobin | to bind oxygen |
what does over exposure of oxygen to myoglobin produce | metmyoglobin |
what colour is met myoglobin | grey brownish |
what is the colour of anthocyanins | red purple |
are anthocyanins fat soluble | no, they are water soluble |
what is flavoroid component of anthocyanins called | anthocyodin |
what makes anthocyanins stable | sugar |
how is acidity related to the colour of anthocyanins | more acidic = more red less acidic = more blue |
are betalins water soluble | yes |
what are the two types of betalains | beta cyanins : violet red betxanthans: yellow |
Carotenoids are water soluble | False, they are fat soluble |
True of False, are Chlorophylls fat soluble | Yes |
What metal is in chlorophylls | Magnesium |
Anthoxanthis are water soluble | True |
What colour are Anthoxanthins | vary from white to yellow |
the combination of what defines flavour | tongue and nose, aka smell and taste |
Umami is responsible for what flavor | Meatiness of avoriness |
Astingency is responsible for what flavor? where is it commonly found in | Puckering feeling, found in wine and tea |
Spiciness or heat sensations is result of what | Pungency |
The internal production of what results in undesirable cooked flavor | Maillard Reaction products |
what is Fracturability | The force at which a food splits or fractures |
What is Hardness | The force required to derform the product to given distance |
what two chemical forces are involved in texture | water presence and fat presence |
does Bound water have a low or high Aw value | low, hard and crisp |
What are the three main functions of texturizing agents? | Gelling, increasing Viscosity, Increasing firmness |
what is added to produce gelling effects? | polysaccharides and or peptides (small proteins) |
what is added to increase viscosity | polysaccharides |
does sucrose reduce amount of water or decrease free water | decreases free water, giving lower water activity and drier or firmer product |
what are the specific steps of food processing called | unit operators |
what are the primary unit operators | 1. materials handling 2. Seperating 3. Cleaning 4. disintegration 5. Pumping 6. Mixing 7. Heat ex 8. evap 9. Drying 10. Forming 11. packaging 12. non thermal methods |
what does material handling involve | mainly transportation |
what does seperating involve | isolation of desirable products, solid from solid of liquid from solid |
what is disintegrating | reduction in particle size, cutting into smaller peices, grating cheese ect |
What is Freeze drying | water in solid food is froze under vacuum, then ice turns into vapor in vacuum, vapor is cendensed into ice in seperate chamber |
what are the 6 basic principles for food processing preparation | 1. Moisture removal 2. heat 3. low t 4. Acidity 5. Traditional nonthermal methods 6. Innovative nonthermal methods |
what is moisture removal important | microorganisms need water to survive |
what are some examples of heat treatment | sterilization, pasturization, blanching, canning |
what does sterilization require | heat at 121 degrees for 15 min, require everything to be 121 degrees |
what is pasteurization | heat to 70 - 90 degrees, below Bp of water |
what is blanching | applying heat for short time, boiling veg in water, this inactivates enzymes but does not kill microorganisms |
what is canning | canned foods are heated to a specific temperature and specific amount of time, dependent on size and structure of food |
below what temperature does all water in food turn to ice | negative 60 degrees |
what are traditional nonthermal methods | chemical preservatives used to stop or slow down deterioation |
What are the stpes to milk processing | Clarification, Fat Adjustment, Fortification, Pasteurization, homogenization, Cooling, Packaging |
why is pasteurization done | to kill human pathogens |
What are the stpes of Cheese processing | Curd Formation, Removal of milk serum- salting, blocks wheels, ripening, Packaging |
what enzyme is added in curd formation, what does it due | enzyme renning is added to denature milk protiens, also lactic acid producing bacteria is added |
how is milk serum removed | curds are cut heated and pressed |
What are the steps to egg processing | Chillings, Washing, Candling, Sorting, packaging |
what are the eggs chilled | resists breakage and reduce growth of salmonella |
what defects are checked during the candling process | Staleness: presence of large air pocked, and presence of blood embryo or chick development |
What 4 foctors affect the quality of meat | Rigor mortis, Cold shortening, thaw rigor, Pale Soft Exudative |
what is cold shortening, what causes it | glycogen in muscles is turn into lactic acid when animal dies, if meat is chilled too quickly glycogen remains and meat remains tough |
what is thaw Rigor | If meat is frozen with glycogen still present, when thaws glycogen causes muscle to contract and meat becomes tough |
PSE | Low pH and High T causes muscle to lose water and become pase and lose myoglobin, usually a pork related problem |
how is meat fish and poultry preserved | use of Chemical additives, Curing, Fermentation, Smoking |
what are chemical additives used | act as antioxidants, act as antimicrobials and inhibit spoilage and oxidation use of nitrate and salts and Vit C |
what is Curing | addition of salt, sugar or nitrate to extend shelf life |
what is fermentation used as a preservation method | fermentation bacteria added to produce acid which inhibits undesirable microorganisms |
how is smoking used | heat and dry air dries meat and decreases Aw |
What are the stpes of oil processing | Cleaning, Grinding, Steaming/Cooking, Flaking, Extracting, Seperating, Solvent Removal, Refining, packaging |
what is rinding | breaking the hull to expose oil |
what is flaking | pressing of seeds into small flakes to allow for greater oil exposure |
what is extraction and why is it done | addition of solvent to leave water and solid behind |
what two wheat protiens make up gluten | Gliadin and Glutenin, protiens link when mixed with liquid |
what is the difference between flour and semolina | flour is finely group hard or soft wheat, Semolina is coarsely groun hard wheat |
