Dairy drinks are very common consumer products in people’s daily life. Peanut milk, walnut milk and many other beverage containing milk are very popular. Dairy milk is mainly made of fresh milk, which contains a large amount of protein, vitamin and fat. Those nutrients are liable to be oxidized, which should be kept away from [...]
The basic principle of warm paste’s mechanism is to convert chemical energy into heat through the oxidation-reduction reaction participated by oxygen. The amount of oxygen is an important factor affecting the rate of the reaction. A large amount of oxygen will result in strong reactions and release a large amount of heat in a short [...]
Some instant foods are usually made by deep frying. They have a high content of grease and a low moisture. Therefore, in order to prevent the oxidation and deterioration of oil, the generation of harmful substances, stale flavor due to contact with oxygen or light during the storage of instant foods, or the appearance of [...]
