Determination of fat, salt and sodium contents of selected fast food items available for sale in Colombo city, Sri Lanka: An approach to colour coding of fast foods
(2021-11-29)
Fast food has become a popular trend among Sri Lankan consumers. However, the nutritional facts of these food items that aid consumer awareness are scantly found in Sri Lanka. This study aimed to examine fat, salt and sodium contents of selected fast food types sold in Colombo city. A questionnaire-based survey was conducted to identify the fast food consumption patterns of the target population. Fat, salt and sodium contents of highly preferred fast food types selected based on the survey, namely; Chinese fish roll ...

Food rescue and donation in socioenvironmental policies on tackling food loss and waste: a systematic review
(2021-12-20)
In recent years, there has been an increasing concern among governments about food loss and waste – FL&W and, in this context, the food rescue and donation – FR&D has emerged in the scenario of socioenvironmental policies as a strategic factor for FL&W reduction. Despite FR&D have potential to establish a “win-win” arrangement between the spheres of waste management and demands of food security, it still has been perceived as a less attractive alternative than forwarding the surplus food to the waste treatment system. ...

Decontamination of Pineapple (Ananas comosus) juice using Ozone as a Non-thermal Sterilization method
(2021-12-15)
Ozone is a non thermal preservation technology used for enhancing shelf life and the safety of the food products. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of gaseous ozone on microbial decontamination and on some physicochemical characteristics (soluble solids content, pH, titratable acidity and color), bioactive compounds and total antioxidant activity of Pineapple juice. Ozone treatments were applied for Pineapple juice at 4 different exposure times as 15 mins, 30 mins, 45 mins and 60 mins at 250C and ...

Effect of Crystallographic Orientation and Grain Boundaries on Martensitic Transformation and Superelastic Response of Oligocrystalline Fe–Mn–Al–Ni Shape Memory Alloys
(2021-07-26)
In situ tensile tests employing digital image correlation were conducted to study the martensitic transformation of oligocrystalline Fe–Mn–Al–Ni shape memory alloys in depth. The influence of different grain orientations, i.e., near-〈001〉 and near-〈101〉, as well as the influence of different grain boundary misorientations are in focus of the present work. The results reveal that the reversibility of the martensite strongly depends on the type of martensitic evolving, i.e., twinned or detwinned. Furthermore, it is ...

In-situ full-field deformation analysis of injection-molded microcellular polycarbonate according to foam morphology patterns
(2023-06-02)
Deformation behavior of microcellular foam materials are sensitive to microstructural details. Therefore, the distinctive foam morphology patterns of foam injection-molded Polycarbonate are identified. These morphology patterns are investigated regarding their cell size, distance between cells, cell density, density reduction, homogeneity of cell size distribution, sphericity of cells and cell volume. Consequently, the predefined foam morphologies, the resulting modulus of elasticity and the elongation at break are ...

Optimization on the manufacturing process of fried instant corn noodle using response surface methodology
(2023-07-31)
Instant corn noodles can be manufactured using the air drying and frying process. The objective of this study was to determine the optimum process parameters and emulsifier concentration to produce instant corn noodles from 100% corn flour with relatively good quality characteristics using a cooking-forming single screw extruder. This study consisted of two stages, namely the determination of corn noodles with the fastest cooking time using emulsifier concentrations of 0, 0.5, 1, and 1.5% from the weight of corn ...

Traditional Seafood Product Purchase Through E-Commerce: The Impact of Perceived Risk and Benefit to Consumers’ Intention to Buy
(2023-07-31)
Traditional seafood products in Indonesia are also very diverse, influenced by ethnicity and eating habits. However, the problem is the low level of consumption of seafood products in Indonesia. There is a limited number of traditional seafood products have entered the e-commerce due to the lack of knowledge about consumer demand. To boost the purchase of traditional seafood product, consumers’ perception need to be explored as it plays prominent role in a successful food product. The aims of this research are to ...

Analysis of Food Consumption Patterns as a Step for Mapping Future Food Needs Based on the Potential of Local Food
(2023-07-31)
Muara Gembong Village, in Bekasi Regency, West Java is an area that has a variety of potential local food ingredients that can improve the welfare of the surrounding community. It is necessary to map the consumption and use of local food ingredients in the area so that it can be identified the type of food that needs to be developed as a strategy to improve food security in Muara Gembong village. One way to identify this is by analyzing the community's food consumption patterns. This study aims to analyze food ...

Trade-off between carbon offset and economic benefit: Potential of cocoa-based agroforestry system implemented in voluntary carbon market
(2023-11-02)
Agroforestry systems (AFS) are a viable option for the mitigation of deforestation. Thus far AFS has been recognized and financed through the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) program; however, analysis of the potential carbon credit payment and productivity trade-off has rarely been conducted. This study aims to analyse the potential of cocoa-based AFS in terms of the trade-off of carbon accumulation and productivity in West Sumatra, Indonesia. The trade-off is shown through 20 years of financial analysis between the ...

Shape Memory Effect and Superelasticity of [001]-Oriented FeNiCoAlNb Single Crystals Aged under and without Stress
(2021-06-10)
The two-step ageing of Fe-28Ni-17Co-11.5Al-2.5Nb (at.%) single crystals under and without stress, leads to the precipitation of the γ′- and β-phase particles. Research has shown that γ–α′ thermoelastic martensitic transformation (MT), with shape memory effect (SME) and superelasticity (SE), develops in the [001]-oriented crystals under tension. SE was observed within the range from the temperature of the start of MT upon cooling Mₛ, to the temperature of the end of the reverse MT upon heating Af, and at temperatures ...
