TL;DR: In this paper, a method for controlling blister formation in fabricated, expanded snack products by utilizing discrete, solid lipid particles was proposed, where the blisters are only prevented in localized areas where a solid, lipid particle exists.
Abstract: An improved method for controlling blister formation in fabricated, expanded snack products by utilizing discrete, solid lipid particles. These lipids must be solid at room temperature with a melting point above 100° F such that they remain discrete and solid when mixed with the dough and are subsequently sheeted or extruded. During the toasting, frying, or baking step, the solid, lipid particles melt and soften and disrupt the starch matrix, thus allowing steam to escape and preventing blisters. The blisters are only prevented, however, in the localized area where a solid, lipid particle exists. Thus, by changing the level of solid, lipid particles in the dough, the size of resulting blisters can be controlled.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of temperature and flux on the critical formation dose for blisters and on their dimensions was studied, and it was found that for single crystals, the critical blisters formation dose is one order of magnitude higher than for polycrystalline tungsten at high temperature irradiation conditions.

TL;DR: Monoclonal antibodies recognizing the antiproteolytic compound α2-macroglobulin were used for immunohistological studies on normal human skin and MG-specific immunoreactivity was found to be localized to the papillary dermis and to be concentrated in the region of the epidermodermal junction.
Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies recognizing the antiproteolytic compound α2-macroglobulin (MG) were used for immunohistological studies on normal human skin. MG-specific immunoreactivity was found to be localized to the papillary dermis and to be concentrated in the region of the epidermodermal junction. In view of these findings and the possible involvement of proteolytic enzymes and their inhibitors in blister formation, we asked whether MG occurs in the fluid of experimentally induced blisters. MG was identified (by western-blotting) and quantified (by a monoclonal antibody based enzyme immunoassay) in the fluid of experimentally induced suction blisters. Taken together, MG is present in such blister fluid in concentrations 6 times lower than in serum, but still in an antiproteolytic range. These findings allow suggestion of a possible role for the antiproteolytic compound MG in blister formation.
