Download or read book Edible Oleogels written by Alejandro G. Marangoni and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an effort to provide alternatives to trans and saturated fats, scientists have been busy modifying the physical properties of oils to resemble those of fats. In this fashion, many food products requiring a specific texture and rheology can be made with these novel oil-based materials without causing significant changes to final product quality. The major approach to form these materials is to incorporate specific molecules (polymers, amphiphiles, waxes) into the oil components that will alter the physical properties of the oil so that its fluidity will decrease and the rheological properties will be similar to those of fats. These new oilbased materials are referred to as oil gels, or "oleogels," and this emerging technology is the focus of many scientific investigations geared toward helping decrease the incidence of obesity and cardiovascular disease. - Presents a novel strategy to eliminate trans fats from our diets and avoid excessive amounts of saturated fat by structuring oil to make it behave like crystalline fat - Reviews recent advances in the structuring of edible oils to form new mesoscale and nanoscale structures, including nanofibers, mesophases, and functionalized crystals and crystalline particles - Identifies evidence on how to develop trans fat free, low saturate functional shortenings for the food industry that could make a major impact on the health characteristics of the foods we consume

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biomarkers of Inborn Errors in Metabolism: Clinical Aspects and Laboratory Determination is structured around the new reality that laboratory testing and biomarkers are an integral part in the diagnosis and treatment of inherited metabolic diseases. The book covers currently used biomarkers as well as markers that are in development. Because biomarkers used in the initial diagnosis of disease may be different than the follow-up markers, the book also covers biomarkers used in both the prognosis and treatment of inherited metabolic disorders. With the introduction of expanded new-born screening for inborn metabolic diseases, an increasing numbers of laboratories are involved in follow-up confirmatory testing. The book provides guidance on laboratory test selection and interpreting results in patients with suspected inherited metabolic diseases. The book provides comprehensive guidance on patient diagnosis and follow-up through its illustrative material on metabolic pathways, genetics and pathogenesis, treatment and prognosis of inherited metabolic diseases, along with essential information on clinical presentation. Each chapter is organized with a uniform, easy-to-follow format: a brief description of the disorder and pathway; a description of treatment; biomarkers for diagnosis; biomarkers followed for treatment efficacy; biomarkers followed for disease progression; confounding conditions that can either: affect biomarker expression or mimic IEMs; other biomarkers: less established, future. - Provides comprehensive information on the tests/biomarkers selection in newborn screening and follow-up of newborn screens - Categorizes biomarkers into diagnostic markers, disease follow-up markers, and prognostic biomarkers - Covers confounding factors that can alter biomarkers in the absence of inborn errors of metabolism - Offers guidance on how to distinguish acquired causes from inborn errors of metabolism

This book was released on 2010-10-02 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Production of industrial alcohol is an age old practice. But with time, the usage areas as well as production techniques have gone through a major transformation. Industrial alcohol is distilled ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH), normally of high proof, produced and sold for other than beverage purposes. It is usually distributed in the form of pure ethyl alcohol, completely denatured alcohol, especially denatured alcohol and proprietary solvent blends. Ethyl Alcohol is the common name for the hydroxyl derivative of the hydrocarbon ethane .Industrial alcohol is distilled ethyl alcohol normally of high proof, produced and sold for other than beverage purposes. Industrial alcohol finds its applications in many chemical industries, pharmaceutical industries, Ink Industries and various allied applications. Much of this alcohol is obtained synthetically from ethylene. However, its production from microbial fermentation using variety of cheap sugary substrates is still commercially important. The various substrates used for ethanol production are sugar crops such as sugarcane, sugar beet, sorghum, etc. provide a good substrate. Bye product of these crop processing, e.g., molasses, sweet sorghum syrup, etc. are the most common substrates. Cereals like maize, wheat, rice etc are also used for ethanol production. Distillation of industrial alcohol, which is normally not used for consumption, can be made in a two step process. The process of distillation is one with a slow dynamics making it essential to have a carefully planned and designed control system. Ethyl alcohol or ethanol ranks second only to water as the most widely used solvent in chemical industry and as these industries have expanded, so the demand for industrial alcohol has increased. Some of the fundamentals of the book are base case production of alcohol, survey and natural alcohols manufacture, alcohol from wheat straw, alcohol from sacchariferous feed stocks, conventional process used in Indian distilleries, fermentation, distillation, continuous rectification and reflux ratio, alcohol recovery, quality of alcohol, steam economy, fuel oil separation, trihydric and polyhydric alcohols, coal gasification, methanol synthesis, coal gasification and raw gas purification, synthesis gas preparation, methanol synthesis and purification, badger conceptual design. This handbook on Industrial alcohol technology provides complete details on process and the technology used in the production of ethanol from various sugar crops and cereals and also briefs the different types of monohydric, trihydric and polyhydric alcohols. This handbook will be very helpful to its readers who are just beginners in this field and will also find useful for upcoming entrepreneurs, existing industries, technical institution, etc. TAGS Production of Alcohol, Manufacture of Alcohols, Ethyl Alcohol or Ethanol Production, Method for Production of Alcohol, Alcohol From Corn, Manufacturing of Alcohol, Alcohol Beverage Production, Ethanol Production, Fuel Ethanol Production, Alcohol Fuel Production from Grain, Fuel Ethanol Plants, Detergent Alcohols, Natural Detergent Alcohols, Production of Detergent Range Alcohols, Natural Alcohols Manufacture, Process for Producing Unsaturated Alcohols, Production of Unsaturated Alcohols, Ziegler Process, Alcohols, Higher Aliphatic, Synthetic Process, Production of Ethanol From Wheat Straw, Production of Bioethanol From Wheat Straw, Wheat Ethanol Production, Monohydric Alcohol, Preparation of Monohydric Alcohols, Polyhydric Alcohol, Production of Polyhydric Alcohols, Process for Producing Polyhydric Alcohol, Methanol from Coal, How to Produce Methanol From Coal, Coal to Methanol Process, Coal Based Methanol Production, Production of Methanol from Coal, Methanol Production, Methanol Production Plant, Ethanol Production From Maize, Production of Ethanol From Maize, Production of Motor Fuel Grade Alcohol, Waste Water Treatment, Industrial Fermentation and Alcohol, Fungal Amylase Production, Grain Production, Grain Processing, Lubricants and Petroleum, Agricultural Chemicals, Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals, Linalool, Behenyl Alcohol, Amyl Alcohols, Acyclic Higher Alcohols, Cyclopentanol, Cyclohexanol, Borneol, Cholesterol, Thenyl Alcohol, Hydroxymethylpyrrole, NPCS, Niir, Process Technology Books, Business Consultancy, Business Consultant, Project Identification and Selection, Preparation of Project Profiles, Startup, Business Guidance, Business Guidance to Clients, Startup Project, Startup Ideas, Project for Startups, Startup Project Plan, Business Start-Up, Business Plan for Startup Business, Great Opportunity for Startup, Small Start-Up Business Project, Best Small and Cottage Scale Industries, Startup India, Stand Up India, Small Scale Industries, New Small Scale Ideas for Alcohol Processing Industry, Methanol Production Business Ideas You Can Start on Your Own, Industrial Alcohol Production Industry, Small Scale Alcohol Processing, Guide to Starting and Operating Small Business, Business Ideas for Alcohol from Maize Production, How to Start Industrial Alcohol Manufacturing Business, Starting Industrial Alcohol Production, Start Your Own Industrial Alcohol Production Business, Industrial Alcohol Production Business Plan, Business Plan for Industrial Alcohol, Small Scale Industries in India, Industrial Alcohol Based Small Business Ideas in India, Small Scale Industry You Can Start on Your Own, Business Plan For Small Scale Industries, Set Up Industrial Alcohol, Profitable Small Scale Manufacturing, How to Start Small Business in India, Free Manufacturing Business Plans, Small and Medium Scale Manufacturing, Profitable Small Business Industries Ideas, Business Ideas for Startup
