Study of the influence of yeast inoculum concentration (Yarrowia lipolytica and Kluyveromyces lactis) on blue cheese aroma development using microbiological models (2013)
Journal Article

Yarrowia lipolytica and Kluyveromyces lactis occur as part of Stilton cheese microflora yet are not controlled during production. This study investigated the influence of their inoculum concentration on aroma production. Models of Y. lipolytica and K...

Optimization of spray-drying process conditions for the production of maximally viable microencapsulated L. acidophilus NCIMB 701748 (2013)
Journal Article

Inrecent years, the use of spray drying for the production of anhydrobiotics has gained the interest of functional food manufacturers, mainly due to cost efficiencies and enhanced product and process flexibility (e.g., enhanced shelf life). In the pr... Read More about Optimization of spray-drying process conditions for the production of maximally viable microencapsulated L. acidophilus NCIMB 701748.

Flavour generation during commercial barley and malt roasting operations: A time course study (2013)
Journal Article

The roasting of barley and malt products generates colour and flavour, controlled principally by the time course of product temperature and moisture content. Samples were taken throughout the industrial manufacture of three classes of roasted product...
