Diffusiophoresis in non-adsorbing polymer solutions: the Asakura-Oosawa model and stratification in drying films [PDF]
A colloidal particle placed in an inhomogeneous solution of smaller non-adsorbing polymers will move towards regions of lower polymer concentration, in order to reduce the free energy of the interface between the surface of the particle and the solution.

Convective drying kinetics of osmotically pre-treated potato slices [PDF]
In the food industry, convective drying is a widely used method due to its applicability to many food materials. Besides this advantage of the convective drying method, there are several shortcomings related to the rehydration capacity, low quality of dried material, loss of color, flavour, and nutrient of the final dried materials.

Formulation of a live bacterial vaccine for stable room temperature storage results in loss of acid, bile and bile salt resistance [PDF]
Live bacterial vaccines have great promise both as vaccines against enteric pathogens and as heterologous antigen vectors against diverse diseases. Ideally, room temperature stable dry formulations of live bacterial vaccines will allow oral vaccination ...

Mango dehydration: influence of osmotic pre-treatmentAnd addition of calcium chloride
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) can be characterized as a greatly accepted fruit due to its sensory attributes of flavor and aroma. However, it has a large production during the harvest season and requires preservation through processing.

Effect of iron and ascorbic acid addition on dry infusion process and final color of pumpkin tissue [PDF]
In the present study, pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duchesne ex Poiret) was used as raw material to produce sweet food fortified with iron (Fe) and ascorbic acid (AA). A dry infusion process with a subsequent air drying was applied.
