Food coloring. A variety of food colorings, added to beakers of water. Food coloring, color additive or colorant is any dye, pigment, or substance that imparts color when it is added to food or beverages. Colorants can be supplied as liquids, powders, gels, or pastes. Food coloring is commonly used in commercial products and in domestic cooking ...
Extracellular polymeric substance matrix formation in a biofilm. Extracellular polymeric substances ( EPSs) are natural polymers of high molecular weight secreted by microorganisms into their environment. [ 1] EPSs establish the functional and structural integrity of biofilms, and are considered the fundamental component that determines the ...
Lycopene is a symmetrical tetraterpene because it consists entirely of carbon and hydrogen and is derived from eight isoprene subunits. [ 5] Isolation procedures for lycopene were first reported in 1910, and the structure of the molecule was determined by 1931. In its natural, all- trans form, the molecule is long and somewhat flat, constrained ...
Purple cauliflower contains anthocyanins. Anthocyanins (from Ancient Greek ἄνθος (ánthos) 'flower' and κυάνεος / κυανοῦς (kuáneos/kuanoûs) 'dark blue'), also called anthocyans, are water-soluble vacuolar pigments that, depending on their pH, may appear red, purple, blue, or black. In 1835, the German pharmacist Ludwig ...
Set in the early 1950s, the hit show starring Brie Larson and Aja Naomi King deals with so many still-relevant riveting and complex issues, told through the lens of chemistry and food.
Food chemistry is the study of chemical processes and interactions of all biological and non-biological components of foods. [1] [2] The biological substances include such items as meat, poultry, lettuce, beer, milk as examples. It is similar to biochemistry in its main components such as carbohydrates, lipids, and protein, but it also includes ...
Hearing of a case of head lice is enough to give anyone the heebie-jeebies, but the thought of eating lice is really enough to make the skin crawl -- yet unknown to most people, we do that almost ...
Erythrosine, also known as Red No. 3, is an organoiodine compound, specifically a derivative of fluorone. It is a pink dye which is primarily used for food coloring. [ 2] It is the disodium salt of 2,4,5,7-tetraiodo fluorescein. Its maximum absorbance is at 530 nm [ 3] in an aqueous solution, and it is subject to photodegradation .
