Gelatin applications, food

The betalains serve as another example. They are very sensitive to different technological factors. They can only be maintained in foods with short shelf lives, produced with minimum heat treatment, and packaged in a dry state under reduced levels of light, oxygen, and humidity. Betalains have several applications in gelatin desserts, confectionery, dry mixes, poultry, dairy, and meat products. ... 

As gelatin is a common food additive with applications in the pharmaceutical industry, its introduction into foreign protein production systems may generate fewer regulatory concerns than other biopolymers. 

The sweetness of fmctose is enhanced by syneigistic combinations with sucrose (12) and high intensity sweeteners (13), eg, aspartame, saccharin, acesulfame K, and sucralose. Information on food application is available (14,15). Fmctose also reduces the starch gelatinization temperature relative to sucrose in baking applications (16—18). 

Fig. I. Single-drum dryer (atmospheric). Dryers of this type may be dip or splash fed (not shown), or, as shown, equipped with applicator rolls. The latter is particularly effective for drying high-viscosity liquids or pasty materials, such as mashed potatoes, applesauce, fruit-starch mixtures, gelatin, dextrine-type adhesives, and various star dies. The applicator rolls eliminate void areas, permit drying between successive layers of fresh material and (omi me product sheet gradually. While single applications may dry to a lacy sheet or flakes, the multiple layers generally result in a product of uniform thickness and density with minimum dusting tendencies.

Food and beverage processing represents an expanding area for process-scale microfiltration. Already in place are clarification systems for wine and beer, sugar, and gelatin, replacing existing practices such as diatomaceous earth filtration. Less attractive economically are miscellaneous waste treatment applications, for which microfiltration is often a sophisticated but expensive alternative.
