Summary Chickpea flour ( CF )‐based muffin formulations were made with alone and added biopolymers [whey protein WP ), xanthan gum XG ) inulin INL )] to evaluate their suitability be a wheat WF substitute in muffins. Structural characteristics of the batters muffins studied by means rheometry, microscopy, physicochemical properties, texture sensory analysis. Partial replacement , (at 0.5 1%) or blended either significantly increased batter viscoelasticity as denser matrices developed;...
The effects of salt on the quality fruits were investigated in order to compare impact key fruit properties cultivated domesticated tomato species (Solanum lycopersicum) and its wild halophyte relative Solanum chilense. To this end, cherry plants (S. lycopersicum var. cerasiforme) from accession LA4107 chilense) maintained for 112 days absence or presence NaCl (40 80 mM) nutrient solution. Among others, salinity decreased weight increased total soluble solid (TSS) S. but not antioxidant...
Abstract The effect on rheological properties of muffin batter replacing wheat flour (WF) with chickpea (CF) was studied by using viscoelastic and steady‐state shear tests to characterize the physical structure predict both processing performances. CF used replace WF in partially (25, 50, 75% w/w) or totally (100% w/w, i.e., CF‐based gluten‐free batter), compared a control made only batter). Viscoelasticity rebuild time decreased significantly increase percentage replacement. Gluten‐free had...
Although biofilm formation is a very effective mechanism to sustain bacterial life, it detrimental in medical and industrial sectors. Current strategies control proliferation are typically based on biocides, which exhibit negative environmental impact. In the search for environmentally friendly solutions, nanotechnology opens possibility interaction between biological systems colonized surfaces by introducing nanostructured coatings that have potential affect adhesion modifying surface...
Nutritional composition, rheological behavior, and structure of a commercial Spanish hummus were analyzed. The is "high in fiber," Fe (1.9 ± 0.02 mg/100 g), Ca (65.7 10.9 Mg (66.8 1.0 P (164.9 4.6 especially, K (250.7 11.6 g) are present it. hummus, with dispersion index 4.14, behaved like weak gel exhibited hysteresis loops, the Herschel-Bulkley model described its steady time-independent flow behavior. Complex viscosity apparent at similar frequency shear rate failed to follow Cox-Merz rule.
Pressure-induced gelatinization of chickpea flour (CF) was studied in combination with subsequent temperature-induced gelatinization. CF slurries (with 1:5 flour-to-water ratio) and powder form were treated high hydrostatic pressure (HHP), temperature (T), treatment time (t) at three levels (200, 400, 600 MPa; 10, 25, 50 °C; 5, 15, 25 min). In order to investigate the effect storage (S), half HHP-treated immediately analyzed for changes oscillatory rheological properties under isothermal...
Abstract Cementing the production liners in deep gas field Kingdom Saudi Arabia (KSA) has been incredibly challenging due to narrow pore-frac pressure windows resulting higher well control risks. Hydraulic isolation becomes even more critical as reservoir is on high spectrum. To mitigate these risks, reliable hydraulics simulations and flexible cementing fluids designs are needed accurately manage circulating pressures during cement placement. When pore revised upward drilling, mud weight...
In this work we present a study on the performance of CVD (chemical vapor deposition) graphene coatings grown and transferred Ni as protection barriers under two scenarios that lead to unwanted metal ion release, microbial corrosion allergy test conditions. These phenomena have strong impact in different fields considering nickel (or its alloys) is one most widely used metals industrial consumer products. Microbial costs represent fractions national gross product developed countries, whereas...
Abstract With increasing emphasis on health and well‐being, nutrition aspects need to be incorporated as a dimension of product development. Currently, S pain's legume intakes are below recommendations. Therefore, chickpea gel formulation was developed using response surface methodology. Independent variables considered were lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, soymilk xanthan gum, the first three being commonly included ingredients hummus having known beneficial effects. Variables studied...
Increasingly popular in the West is hummus, a spread that made with pureed chickpeas and other healthful ingredients. The changes texture measurements sensory properties novel chickpea flour-based product occurring when water partially replaced by common ingredients of hummus were investigated. Eleven gels containing different amounts minced garlic, lemon juice, curry powder, inulin prepared compared two control gels. These chosen to make tastier, appealing, similar hummus. Instrumental...
Salinity is a major constraint limiting the yield of tomatoes. However, grafting strategies may help to overcome salt toxicity this important horticultural species if appropriate rootstocks are identified. The present study aimed test new rootstock, JUPAFORT1, obtained by crossing glycophyte Solanum lycopersicum (cv. Poncho Negro) with halophyte wild-related chilense improve salinity tolerance Chilean tomato landrace Old Limachino Tomato (OLT). Intact OLT plants were exposed 0, 80, or 160 mM...

Abstract We examine here the role of credits on technology adoption and inequality from perspective developing countries. Utilizing a model exogenous growth, with heterogeneous labor technical progress embodied in physical capital, we find that can contribute to faster reducing income inequality. Thus, virtuous cycle credits, shorter technological gap, less inequality, economic growth is feasible be created when there full liquidity market. When are constrained, loses virtuosity, where...

Abstract A new method is presented to assess layer connectivity and determine dynamic reservoir properties for use as inputs in a numerical model multi-layered reservoir. Large scale formation tester transient measurements downhole fluid analysis information are used construct the model. Pressure distributed vertically at wellbore laterally different wells delineate sands complex behaviors. transients recorded from wireline (WFT) small drill stem test (DST), or conventional well tests, then...
The Old Limachino Tomato is a valuable fruit with exceptional nutritional values and organoleptic sensory properties. However, it suffers from short shelf-life, compromising post-harvest behavior. As an attempt to improve the fruit’s qualities, (L) scion was grafted onto rootstock rustic landrace Poncho Negro (R). Fruits produced in this graft combination were compared fruits by self-grafted plants (L/L) long-shelf-life cultivar Seminis (LSL). trials carried out for 146 days during summer of...
