Inactivation Of Salmonella And Surrogate Bacteria On Cashews And Macadamia Nuts Exposed To Saturated Steam And Propylene Oxide Treatments
… microbiological quality and safety of tree nuts. Validation of these processes is needed to ensure adequate control of bacterial pathogens. Since pathogens cannot be studied in food processing environments, surrogates with resistance comparable to the pathogens needed to be identified. The …

Biochemical characteristics of Marama bean (Tylosema esculentum)
… Roasted marama beans were compared to roasted macadamia nuts by a sensory consumer panel. The marama beans had a satisfactory consumer ranking. This was due to the presence of the bitterness attribute which was more significant in marama beans then macadamia nuts. Sensory attributes obtained …

Thermal Modeling of Vacuum Assisted Steam Pasteurization for Improved Product Safety of Low Water Activity Foods
… were conducted with 5 products (whole macadamia nuts, macadamia nut pieces, pumpkin seeds, mustard seeds, and Brazil nuts). During these experiments, the local steam temperatures at the top, middle, and bottom of the package were measured. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models were …

Impacts of low-water activity food type on inactivation kinetics and models of foodborne pathogens treated with low-temperature, vacuum-assisted steam processing
Low water activity foods (LWAF), specifically nuts and dried fruits, have been generally considered safe because they do not support the growth of foodborne pathogens. However, many pathogens have been noted to survive in LWAF for considerable periods of time, and a number of recent outbreaks and …

Understanding the thermal biology of macadamia nut borer, Thaumato(bia batrachopa (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae): a pest of macadamia in South Africa
… data and populaSon dynamics of T. batrachopa in macadamia orchards at different climate zones. Effects of temperature on the development duraSon of T. batrachopa life stages were explored by rearing from eggs to adults at four constant temperatures. Fecundity and longevity were assessed through …

Analysis of antibiotics and PFAS as potential emerging pollutants in the water bodies and their accumulation in food samples
… for extraction of multi-class antibiotics in macadamia nuts prior to UHPLC-qToF-MS analysis. In paper IV, a novel deep eutectic solvent was synthesised and characterised using FTIR spectroscopy. For the first time the synthesised deep eutectic solvent was applied for extraction of multiclass …
