Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarizes the kinetic data available on nutrient losses and shows how they may be used to predict processing losses as well as shelf life of dehydrated foods The areas where important research must be carried out are emphasized.
Abstract: The loss of nutrients during processing and storage of foods is an important quality aspect that must be considered by the processor With respect to dehydration, problems exist in interpreting or predicting losses due to the time‐temperature‐moisture gradient existing during the process During storage, moisture may also change This review summarizes the kinetic data available on nutrient losses and shows how they may be used to predict processing losses as well as shelf life of dehydrated foods The areas where important research must be carried out are emphasized

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This review deals mainly with the literature which has appeared since the discovery of pectin lyases in 1960 and it is emphasized that the choice of substrates and reaction conditions, as well as that of methods of analysis, to a large extent influence the values found for a number of enzyme properties.
Abstract: This review deals mainly with the literature which has appeared since the discovery of pectin lyases in 1960. Those papers have been selected which are reports of investigations carried out with purified enzyme preparations and rather well defined substrates. According to their action on high polymer pectic substances, the enzymes are placed in one of six different groups. Mutual relationships of some of the groups are discussed. It is emphasized that the choice of substrates and reaction conditions, as well as that of methods of analysis, to a large extent influence the values found for a number of enzyme properties. Trends for future research are outlined.

TL;DR: This article is intended to be a comprehensive review of the published scientific material on enology for the years 1969 and 1970.
Abstract: This article is intended to be a comprehensive review of the published scientific material on enology for the years 1969 and 1970. The material is organized into six general parts: grapes and fermentation, wine handling and finishing, production of special wines and brandies, wine composition, methods of analyses, and sensory, legal and public health considerations.
