  1. An integrated risk assessment of patulin in apple juices throughout the food chain

    … met conventioneel en ambachtelijk. Aan de hand van een risicobeoordeling werd aangetoond dat 0.9% van de kinderen die biologisch appelsap consumeren, de tolereerbare dagelijkse inname (TDI) voor patuline overschrijdt. Voor consumenten van conventioneel en ambachtelijk appelsap was dit …

  2. Formation of acrylamide in potato products and its dietary exposure

    Acrylamide is formed during baking and frying of potato and cereal foodstuffs and is considered as a suspected human carcinogen. Potatoes are particularly susceptible to the formation of this process contaminant. Due to their frequent consumption, these products moreover contribute significantly to …

  3. Water use efficiency and influence of management policies, analysis for the small-scale irrigation sector in South Africa

    … to reallocate irrigation water to other water demands is substantial. In a third part an innovative two-steps simulation model was developed to study the impact of water pricing. The model introduces a representation of the technology and smallholder efficiencies in a profit maximisation model. …

  4. Post-harvest strategies for the prevention of fungal growth and mycotoxin production in corn

    … methods based on the addition of bicarbonates and phenolic compounds and the application of modified atmospheres. In light of the emergence of ‘Predictive Mycology’, the study also had the goal of developing validated predictive models to describe the growth of the most important fungal …

  5. Space-time variability of soil salinity in irrigated vineyards of South Africa

    Salts present in the soil and surface waters of the Western Cape Province of South Africa represent a limitation to farming activities. Therefore the management of salinity in the landscape, which includes measuring, mapping and monitoring of its behaviour on a regional scale, is the subject of …

  6. Impact of ingredient interactions on the physico-chemical stability of milk protein-stabilised oil-in-water emulsions

    Besides an oil phase and an aqueous phase, emulsions also contain an emulsifier (e.g. protein). In addition, most food emulsions contain other ingredients, which are intended to adjust the macroscopic appearance, rheology or gravitational stability. Thickeners are used to slow down creaming or …

    … grown in mixture with grasses or as a pure stand. It is valued for its nitrogen fixation capacity, benefits in organic farming, high quality forage, and beneficial effects on the soil structure. However, the lack of persistence is a major problem in red clover and the lack of winter hardiness …
