Food quality is an essential aspect of the food industry. Time–temperature indicator (TTI) technology has capability to provide information on temperature fluctuations that temperature‐sensitive products have undergone. However, adoption TTI in consumer market yet materialize despite many benefits TTIs bring manufacturers, retailers and consumers. One reasons for this could be general lack knowledge regarding consumers' perceptions TTIs. The aim study understand knowledge, interest To reach...
In this study, a variance-based global sensitivity analysis method was first applied to contamination assessment model of Listeria monocytogenes in cold smoked vacuum packed salmon at consumption. The impact the choice modeling approach (populational or cellular) primary and secondary models as well effect their associated input factors on final level investigated. Results provided subset important factors, including food water activity, its storage temperature, duration domestic...
Abstract This study examined the practical performance of a cross-flow ultrafiltration membrane coupled to an anaerobic bioreactor, for treatment raw domestic wastewater (RDW), at pilot-scale plant. Wastewaters used in this originated from two different plans (DWTPs) (Sfax and Ksour Essef). During bioreactor (MBR) RDW originating Sfax DWTP, did not reach its stationary phase because biomass was unable adapt wastewater. explained by considerable fluctuations composition possible contamination...
The ability of Aspergillus niger strain to reduce organic and mineral pollution as well the toxicity two tannery wastewaters, unhairing effluent (UE) final (FE), taken from a local Tunisian under nonsterile conditions, was studied. Raw effluents show alkaline pH ≥11; thus experiments were carried out at initial values adjusted 6. Characterization also revealed high salt levels (EC > 17 mS/cm) matter content (25 g/L for UE 7.2 FE) but low biodegradability since BOD 5 did not exceed 2.5...
Abstract BACKGROUND: Dyeing effluents are the main source of water pollution from textile industries. Consequently, treatment such is environmental concern. RESULTS: Decolorization a industry effluent was investigated using, for first time, trimeric Scytalidium thermophilum laccase without mediator addition. The maximum decolorization (50%) achieved after 8 h using diluted (5 fold) and 4 units crude enzyme, operating at 50 °C pH 4. Characterization raw presents two peaks as demonstrated by...
The biological treatment efficiency of landfill leachate (LFL) from a Tunisian site collection was investigated in this study. raw effluent highly charged with organic matter (more than 25 g l(-1) chemical oxygen demand (COD)), ammonia (1.7 and salts (20 l(-1)). With the presence heavy metals, phenols hydrocarbons, LFL exhibited high toxicity to organisms since it totally inhibited bioluminescence Vibrio fischeri germination Lepidium sativum seeds. (BOD5)/COD ratio 0.5 indicates that can be...
We investigate in this study an assay of aerobic treatment wastewaters from the sea-foodprocessing industry with selected strains white rot fungi. Because effluent was highly charged salts, effect high salts concentrations on growth and enzyme production for Trametes trogii Phanerochaete chrysosporium firstly studied. Results showed that two tolerated NaCl up to 20 g l-1 both mycelia enzymes production. The laccase by T. inhibited 50% 30 added (512 mM). inhibition less important MnP LiP...
Despite their acidic pH, carbonated beverages can be contaminated by spoilage microorganisms. Thermal treatments, before and / or after carbonation, are usually applied to prevent the growth of these However, impact CO2 on heat resistance microorganisms has never been studied. A better understanding combined pH commonly found in might allow optimize thermal treatment.Five were selected for this study: Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris (spores), Aspergillus niger Byssochlamys fulva...
