Prepared mustard

United States exports of spices in 1992 totaled 87.7 million up from 85.2 million in 1991 (Table 4). Dehydrated onion was the most important export spice product at 36.1 million followed by dehydrated gadic, 7.5 million capsicum peppers, 8.9 million black and white pepper, 5.8 million and prepared mustard products, 4.8 million. Canada, Japan, and Germany are the principal markets for United States spice exports. The production in the United States of temperate 2one spices is increa sing every year some of this output is exported as raw spice.

Turmeric oleoresin is used essentially in institutional cooking in meat and certain processed products, such as prepared mustard, pickles and relish formulae, for frozen fish fillets, frozen potato croquettes, butter and cheese. The aroma of turmeric is, however, due to high-boiling components and is rather difficult to remove unless curcumin-oids are isolated by crystallization (Perotti, 1975). 

Grind spices to pass through a 1mm mesh sieve and mix. Immediately prior to analysis, thoroughly mix the material and remove a portion of not less than 2 g for analysis to insure uniformity. For prepared mustard, transfer the entire contents of the container to a vessel, stir well, store in an airtight container and stir before removing a portion for analysis. Vinegars need only to be mixed and filtered. 

Naturally, there are wide variations in the requirements of any specific colloidal function. For example, starch is employed as a thickening agent to provide a smooth creamy texture to the following products gravy, cream soups, sauces, chop suey, Harvard beets, salad dressings, prepared mustard, cream pie fillings, fruit pie fillings, pork and beans, cream-style corn, and baby foods. 

Mustard seeds that must be partially deoiled and desolventized prior to grinding for use in prepared mustard powders... 

Most prepared mustard is made by mixing the dried mustard powder with salt, vinegar, and other spices. Also, mustard is utilized in other products such as mayonnaise, salad dressings, and pickles. 

Prepared mustard may be used to spice up deviled eggs, fish, meats, and poultry. It also enhances the flavor of dressings and sauces. 

MUSTARD. Prepared mustard has been packaged in protected aluminum alloys. See also Ref (1) p. 

Mustard is marketed in three forms, ie, as a seed as a prepared blend of ground mustard seed, vinegar, salt, sugar, and other spices and as powdered dry mustard, also known as ground mustard or mustard flour. The seeds of the white or yellow mustard add pungency to any preparation, and that of the black mustard is required for aroma. Mustard is the largest volume spice imported into the United States and its use covers almost every flavor category except dessert items. 

One such decontaminant is supertropical bleach (STB). STB is a mixture of chlorinated lime and calcium oxide containing about 30% available chlorine. It can be used either as a dry mix or as a slurry to decontaminate some equipment surfaces and terrain. The dry mix is prepared with two parts bleach to three parts earth by volume. A slurry typically consists of 40 parts STB to 60 parts by weight of water. This material is then sprayed or swabbed on the contaminated surface (see Bleaching agents). STB is an effective decontaminant for mustard, lewisite, and VX. It is less effective against nerve agents other than VX. 

Among the reactions appended to this preparation, the foi-mation of phenylcaibiniide from phenyl mustard oil is desciibetl. It should be noted that phenyl carbimide, like the thiocarbiniide, unites with ammonia, amines, and more especially with alcohols and phenols. The bases yield urea derivatives the alcohols and phenols foim urethanes. 

Numerous methods for the determluation of " mustard oil," that is, of the thiocyanate compound, in the essential oil, or in preparations llioreol,... 

Allyl cyanide has been found in oil of mustard 1 and has been prepared from allyl chloride and potassium cyanide,2 allyl bromide and potassium cyanide,3 allyl iodide and potassium cyanide4 and silver cyanide.5 The method described in the procedure is essentially that of Bruylants, who has shown that the yields are much better when dry cuprous cyanide is treated with allyl bromide.6... 

Fish and Shellfish. Sardines in oil and also in tomato sauce and mustard sauce are packed commercially in enameled aluminum cans. However, tomato and mustard sauces are corrosive products that can attack metal containers. Sardines prepared in these sauces should not exceed 3.0% total acidity, expressed as acetic acid. Otherwise, the presently used interior can enamels will not protect the food sufficiently to prevent chemical reactions with the metal. 

The dinuclear dialkyldithiocarbamate precursor [Co2(dtc)5]+ reacted with diamine mustards N,N- and /V,/V -bis(2-chloroethyl)ethylenediamine (bee, dee) and their non-chlorinated analogs yield [Co(dtc)2(diamine)]+.1049 The bee and dee compounds were prepared and tested as potential hypoxia-selective cytotoxins, but did not prove of value as potential bioreductive anticancer drugs, partly due to their redox instability. 

Bi- and poly-thioethers with aliphatic backbones are produced by attack of RS on the appropriate haloalkane. This is the method of choice for RS(CH2)raSR (R = Me or Ph),26 MeC(CH2SR)3,27,28 MeS(CH2)raS(CH2)raSMe (n = 2 or 3) and MeS(CH2)raS(CH2) S(CH2) SMe.28,29 [Caution Some of these syntheses involve sulfur mustard derivatives as intermediates - these are very powerful vesicants and should be handled only with extreme care.] The other tridentates RS(CH2)3S(CH2)3SR (R = Et, Pr or Ph) may be obtained from nucleophilic attack by RS on the ditosylate TsO(CH2)3S(CH2)3OTs.30 Tetra-dentate thioethers involving o-phenylene interdonor linkages are also known.31 More recently the preparation and coordination chemistry of the silicon-apex derivative MeSi(CH2SMe)3 has been described.32... 

Used industrially as a fumigant, fungicide, animal repellent, insect attractant used in the preparation of medicinal ointments and mustard plasters used as a flavoring agent, and denaturant for alcohol. 

The group Cl CH2 CH2 N< occurs in the nitrogen mustards which are powerful vesicants, e.g. CH3,N(CH2,CH2C1)2. It was decided therefore to introduce this group into the fluoroacetamide molecule in the hope of combining vesicant properties with the delayed convulsant action of the fluoroacetates. For this purpose N-2 hydroxyethylfluoroacetamide (IV) was prepared by the action of monoethanolamine on methyl fluoroacetate and was readily converted into N-2-chloroethylfluoroacetamide (V) by the action of thionyl chloride ...
