Materials and main results of the study. ABSTRACT Surfactant–polymer (SP) flooding is a promising Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) technique, combining improved displacement from surfactants with enhanced sweep efficiency from polymers. This study investigates two SP systems based on the biopolymer scleroxanthan (a blend of sclerotium gum and xanthan gum ...

Effects of genotype and environment on the physiochemical properties of Canadian oat varieties
Abstract BACKGROUND The relationship between oat grain composition and physical attributes as influenced by oat genotype and Canadian growing environments was investigated. Thirty Canadian oat (Avena sativa L.) genotypes, grown in three Canadian growing locations (Brandon, Manitoba; Portage la Prairie, Manitoba; and Lacombe, Alberta) over 2 consecutive

Sourdough fermentation as a modulator of nutritional quality in cereal‐based baked products
Abstract Sourdough fermentation, an ancient food bioprocessing technology, has attracted renewed attention for its positive impact on the nutritional profile and sensory attributes of leavened baked products. This process relies on the symbiotic activity between lactic acid bacteria and yeasts, which leads to acidification, proteolysis, enzyme ...
