Abstract:
Brewers' spent grain (BSG) contains bioactive compounds. It was hypothesized that heating treatments using conventional water bath heating (CWH) on brewers' spent grain (BSG) would modify the functionality, chemical constituents and antioxidant activities of BSG. Different temperatures and time exposures (80, 90 and 100 °C at 15, 30 and 60 min) were applied on fresh undried BSG. CWH at 80 °C increased the amount of flavan-3-ols, while 100 °C at 30 and 60 min improved the ABTS (2,2'-Azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) value. CWH significantly declined saturated fatty acid and enhanced the poly-unsaturated fatty acid. Moreover, CWH discharged pungent, floral, spice and mushroom odor perceptions and formed fruity, sweet and pleasant odor perceptions, as well as essential-oil-related compounds. Additionally, CWH improved water-holding and oil-holding capacities. In conclusion, CWH as a low-cost treatment improved the functionality, fatty acid composition and aromatic profile of BSG.

Steam sterilization uses non-toxic, low-cost moist heat in the form of saturated steam under pressure, which is fast, microbicidal, and sporicidal, and quickly warms and penetrates fabrics. Autoclaves, or steam sterilizers, expose each item to direct steam contact for a predetermined time at the necessary...
Aqueous Solutions and Heats of Hydration
When ionic compounds dissolve in water, the ions in the solid separate and disperse uniformly throughout the solution because water molecules surround and solvate the ions, reducing the strong electrostatic forces between them. This process...
