Effect of Different Processing Methods and Salt Content on the Physicochemical and Rheological Properties of Meat Batters

Abstract: The physicochemical and rheological properties of raw and cooked batters produced by a chopping or beating process with various amounts of salt content were studied. Various meat batters were made up for this purpose: the batter processed by chopping with 2% salt, by beating with 1% salt and 2% salt, respectively. Compared with the chopping, the beating cooked batters had higher L* value, hardness, G’ value at 80°C, and lower cooking loss. Using the beating process, the batter with 1% salt had lower L* values, hardness, springiness, and higher cooking loss than the 2% salt. From the micrographs, the batters produced by beating process exhibited more uniform and compact microstructure than the chopping. The result of low-field nuclear magnetic resonance exhibited that the batters of beating had higher water holding capacity than the chopping. Overall, the beating process enabled lowering of the salt content, cooking loss, and making the cooked batter more hard and elastic.

Synchronization of coupled neural networks with infinite-time distributed delays via quantized intermittent pinning control

Abstract: How to deal with the effect of infinite-time delay and maximize rest width is the main difficulty for intermittent control techniques. This paper considers asymptotic synchronization of coupled neural networks (CNNs) with bounded time-varying discrete delay and infinite-time distributed delay (mixed delays). A quantized intermittent pinning control scheme is designed to save both channel resources and control cost and reduce both the amount of transmitted information and channel blocking. Two weighted integral inequalities are first established to deal with the infinite-time distributed delay. Based on weighted double-integral inequalities, novel Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals with negative terms are designed, which can reduce the conservativeness of the results. Some sufficient conditions in the form of linear matrix inequalities are obtained to ensure that the CNNs asymptotically synchronize to an isolated system. Moreover, the relationships between the control width, rest width, and convergence rate are explicitly given. Furthermore, an optimal algorithm is provided to increase the rest width as large as possible. As special cases, the synchronization of the CNNs with quantized pinning control and quantized intermittent control are also considered, respectively. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.

nBu4NI-catalyzed unexpected amide bond formation between aldehydes and aromatic tertiary amines

Abstract: A novel and practical amide bond formation method has been developed without the need for any metals. This method provides a novel route for amide bond formation, in the presence of an nBu4NI/TBHP catalyst system, from readily available aldehydes and aromatic tertiary amines.
