Currently, nondestructive quality evaluation of various agricultural products are being developed and used. In this study, application of an electronic nose system for the quality assessment of kiwifruit (Abbot variety) is used. Electronic nose system coupled with artificial neural network (ANN) and principal component analysis (PCA) techniques was able to classify unripe, half-ripe, ripe, over-ripe and spoiled kiwifruit cultivars successfully. The two main components & , contains about 99% of variance without overlapping. The success rate for ANN was found to be 100%. The minimum and maximum mean square error was obtained for the Half-ripe and spoiled samples as 0.02523 & 0.00198, respectively. In this paper, stiffness as a quality indicator for kiwi was measured and them predicted by electronic nose data. Analysis of the results showed that the kiwifruit firmness after harvest (unripe, half-ripe, ripe and overripe) has significant difference at 5%. Using artificial neural network, the firmness prediction of Abbot variety of kiwifruit through ripening stages aroma determined with the coefficient Electronic nose system can be considered as a reliable tool for the monitoring of kiwifruits in storage conditions.

The study of biochemical characteristics and metabolic activity of Lactobacilli is necessary for selecting strains to be used as starter cultures for bread production. In this study, biochemical characteristics, acidification and probiotic properties of Lactobacillus strains (Lactobacillus plantarum, L. curvatus, L. paralimentarius) isolated from traditional sourdoughs were evaluated. All three Lactobacillus strains showed growth at 15ºC and different levels of NaCl (2, 4, 6.5%) and pH (4.4, 9.6). Lactobacillus plantarum was capable of growing at 45°C. The Lactobacillus strains had capacity to ferment a large spectrum of carbohydrates. Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus curvatus was able to ferment pentoses (xylose and arabinose). Lactobacillus curvatus and Lactobacillus paralimentarius did not ferment rhamnose. The lactobacillus strains showed a proper acidifying ability after 9 h of incubation at 30°C, with pH values between 4.5 and 4.9. The results showed that Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus paralimentarius have potential probiotic value according to acid and bile tolerance tests.

Chapatti is high consuming bread in the SouthEast countries of Asia that in fresh form has a tender texture but within a few days of storage, becomes inflexible. In this research, the effects of guar and CMC gums at two levels of 0.25 and 0.5% on quality of chapatti bread were investigated. Based on results, gum addition in different levels increased moisture and ash contends and improved rheological properties such as water absorption, dough development time, dough resistance, dough softening and Farinograph quality as well as organoleptic properties including taste, color of crust, chewiness, texture, baking uniformity, breakage and stretch of crust and symmetry compared to control sample. Also properties such as resistance to stretch, ability to stretch, (resistance stretch / ability to stretch) and staling rate of samples were decreased with gum addition and the samples with guar gum at concentration of 0.5% giving the best results.

In this study, the effect of accelerated ripening with encapsulated protease and lipase on physiochemical properties such as fat and moisture, texture and microstructure of brined cheese was investigated. Addition of lipase increases hardness by reducing fat globules diameter and increasing casein matrix junction. It also decreases brittleness by fat degradation which is responsible for plasticizing effect. The number and the mean diameter of fat globules which were entrapped in casein network were affected by levels of added lipase. Encapsulated protease decreases hardness and brittleness of brined cheese by casein degradation to low molecular weight peptides and amino acids.., . ...,

Response surface methodology (RSM) was used in order to find the suitable conditions of ultrasonic treatment for achieving the maximum inactivation rate and anthocynins content during ultrasonic processing of red grape juice. Temperature in 3 levels (25 - 37.5 - 50°C), time in (20 – 30 - 40 minutes) and frequency (0 - 67.5 – 135 kHz) were parameters which effects were studied. Experiments were designed according to central composite design with 3 levels including central and axial points for each mentioned parameter. In these experiments 2 mL of solution containing 0.5 MC Farland (OD=0.13) were add to 100 mL of red grape juice. Results showed that linear and quadratic effects of all 3 parameters (temperature, time and frequency) had significant (p<0.05) effect on the inactivation rate and anthocynins content. Analysis of variances was carried out to obtain the regressions for each response and different model inputs. The most suitable conditions were found to be 37.25°C, 20 minutes and 35 kHz.

Ripening is one of the most important stages in production of cheese. In this research to comprehensive study of UF cheese ripening as the major industrial cheese that is produced in Iran, mass transfer, heat transfer and changes in quality and sensory properties, simultaneously considered and a mathematical model was developed to describe them. Thus, at first, lipolysis, proteolysis, texture and sensory properties indexes of cheese samples were measured, and the appropriate kinetic model to describe changes in these indexes was determined. Then using the heat transfer model and the relationships that obtained between the acid value with flavor, texture with NPN, and taste with general acceptance, a comprehensive mathematical model was developed to describe the non-aligned movement of salt and water using Fick second law, heat transfer using the Fourier second law and changes in quality characteristics as a function of internal and external factors in UF cheese during ripening and salting with MATLAB software. Then Lipolysis, proteolysis, texture and sensory properties indexes and salt, moisture and temperature profiles were predicted. Comparison of the experimental and predicted data showed a high correlation between the values that predicted by the model and experimental values.

Due to problems in storage, transport and price fluctuation of fresh potato, production of ready-to-use products like French fries is of particular importance.One of the important steps in product processing is pre-drying.Sticks with 0.8*0.8*8 cm dimensions were prepared, blanched with hot water at 75°C for 10 minutes and dried at four different air temperatures of 50, 60, 70 and 80°C to moisture content of 70٪. Finally, frying at 180°C for 4 minutes was performed. Color and texture were evaluated during pre-drying whereas color, texture and oil uptake of samples were investigated after frying. The results showed that drying temperature was much effective on product texture while no difference was observed on color and oil uptake of potato sticks. The best quality will be obtained with drying at 70°C to moisture content of 75٪.

In this study the impact of freezing rate and degree of pre-fermentation on Sangak frozen dough and its bread was assessed. The pre-fermentation was between zero and 120 min and the corresponding secondly fermentation was between 120 and 0 min, respectively, to obtain total fermentation time of 120 min. The pre-fermentation dough was formed in flat shape and frozen under -20, -25 and -30 °C. It was followed by one day storage at -18 °C. After storage period a second fermentation (in some case there was no second fermentation) was done and in order to finish the fermented dough was baked. Sangak frozen dough quality was assessed by measuring yeast survival and gassing power after thawing. Characteristics of frozen dough bread were evaluated by measuring density after baking. Results showed that viability of yeast initially increased and then decreased by increasing freezing rate, so that at -25 °C the most viability was observed. The maximum yeast viability was observed at short pre-fermentation (30 min). A direct relationship was observed between gassing power and yeast viability. The lowest bread density was obtained with the highest freezing rate and with the short pre-fermentation time.
