  • Effect of Calcium Source and Exposure-Time on Basic Caviar Spherification Using Sodium Alginate
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com International Journal of Gastronomy and Food Science International Journal of Gastronomy and Food Science 1 (2012) 96–100 www.elsevier.com/locate/ijgfs Scientific Paper Effect of calcium source and exposure-time on basic caviar spherification using sodium alginate P. Lee, M.A. Rogersn School of Environmental and Biological Sciences, Department of Food Science, Rutgers University, The State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA Received 24 February 2013; accepted 12 June 2013 Available online 21 June 2013 Abstract Gelation speed is directly proportional to the concentration of calcium. Although the kinetics of gelation are altered by the source of calcium, the final alginate gel strength nor the resistance to calcium diffusion are altered. Calcium chloride reaches a gel strength plateau fastest (100 s), followed by calcium lactate (500 s) and calcium gluconoate (2000 s). Calcium chloride is the best option when the bitter taste can be masked and a fast throughput is required, while calcium gluconoate may have an advantage when the membrane thickness/hardness needs to be manipulated. & 2013 AZTI-Tecnalia.

  • Sodium Alginate Gel Beads
    Jelly Beads! Procedure: 1. Always wear safety goggles. 2. Rinse the beaker, graduated cylinder and petri dish. 3. Measure 20 mL of calcium chloride solution with the graduated cylinder. Add it to the beaker. 4. Add three or four drops of sodium alginate to the beaker. What happened? 5. Use the scoop to transfer one or two of the alginate gel beads from the beaker to the petri dish. Leave the rest of the beads in the beaker for later. 6. • Rinse the beads in the petri dish with water. • Touch the beads. • Lightly roll and squeeze them between your fingers. What do they feel like? What could you use them for? 7. After at least a minute has passed, use the scoop to transfer another bead or two from the beaker to the petri dish. 8. Rinse these beads, and then feel them. Do they feel any different from the beads that you pulled out earlier? Why? 9. When you are finished experimenting, dump the beads and water in the waste container. Clean up for the next person. How did the alginate drops turn into jelly beads? How could you use the beads? A Closer Look: In this experiment you created a gel out of sodium alginate. A gel is a soft substance that has the properties of both liquids and solids. In this experiment, long chains of repeating molecules in the alginate – called polymers – became tangled into a net or mesh. How did it work? When you added calcium chloride, the calcium ions in the solution cross- linked the polymers in the alginate, attaching them to each other at many points.

Commercial cucumber fermentation produces large volumes of salty wastewater. Tis study evaluated the quality of fermented cucumbers produced commercially using an alternative calcium chloride (CaCl2) brining process. Fermentation conducted in calcium brines (0.1 M CaCl2, 6 mM potassium sorbate, equilibrated) with a starter culture was compared to standard industrial fermentation. Production variables included commercial processor (� = 6), seasonal variation (June–September, 2 years), vessel size (10,000–40,000 L), cucumber size (2.7–5.1 cm diameter), and bulk storage time (55–280 days). Cucumber mesocarp frmness, color, bloater defects, pH, and organic acids were measured.

  • Spherification How-To
    Spherification how-to Directions from http://www.molecularrecipes.com/spherification-class/basic- spherification/. Another good resource is Chef's Steps: http://www.chefsteps.com/ activities/direct-spherification From Wikipedia.org: "Spherification is the culinary process of shaping a liquid into spheres which visually and texturally resemble roe. The technique was originally discovered by Unilever in the 1950s (Potter 2010, p. 305) and brought to the modernist cuisine by the creative team at elBulli under the direction of executive chef Ferran Adrià. There are two main methods for creating such spheres, which differ based on the calcium content of the liquid product to be spherified. For flavored liquids (such as fruit juices) containing no calcium, the liquid is thoroughly mixed with a small quantity of powdered sodium alginate, then dripped into a bowl filled with a cold solution of calcium chloride, or other soluble calcium salt. Just as a teaspoonful of water dropped into a bowl of vegetable oil forms a little bubble of water in the oil, each drop of the alginated liquid tends to form into a small sphere in the calcium solution. Then, during a reaction time of a few seconds to a few minutes, the calcium solution causes the outer layer of each alginated liquid sphere to form a thin, flexible skin. The resulting "popping boba" or artificial "caviar" balls are removed from the calcium-containing liquid bath, rinsed in a bowl of ordinary water, removed from the water and saved for later use in food or beverages. Reverse spherification, for use with substances which contain calcium or have high acid/alcohol content, requires dripping the substance (containing calcium lactate or calcium lactate gluconate) into an alginate bath.

  • ABSTRACT LOVETT, MALLORYE DELORIS. Calcium Chloride And
    ABSTRACT LOVETT, MALLORYE DELORIS. Calcium Chloride and Vitamin D Fortified Beverages: Bioavailability in Wistar Rats. (Under the direction of J.C. Allen.) Calcium and vitamin D deficiency is now recognized as an epidemic in the United States. Calcium and vitamin D play a critical role in the prevention of metabolic diseases including osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and rickets. Epidemiological research indicates that average intake of these nutrients is well below the RDA. Dairy products continue to be the main source of calcium intake. The major source of vitamin D is from sensible sun exposure. Greater intake of calcium and vitamin D has been correlated to a reduction in fractures, prevention of osteoporosis, and increased bone mass. The objective of this study was to test effects of a water-soluble form of vitamin D and calcium chloride as fortifiers for an aqueous sports drink solution with a rat bioavailability assay. A water-soluble vitamin D fortifying ingredient was prepared as a spray-dried complex with bovine beta-lactoglobulin. Vitamin D content of the complex was assessed by HPLC. Flavored beverages were formulated with various ratios of calcium and vitamin D in a 4x4 factorial design. Female Wistar rats were housed under incandescent lighting and randomly divided into the treatment and control groups. After a 4-week depletion phase, rats were given specialized drink formulations and low calcium, vitamin D-deficient diet for an additional six weeks. Blood and femur bones were removed for further analysis. Serum vitamin D was measured by ELISA. Results demonstrate that fortified drink solutions could be accurately formulated to contain calcium chloride at 0, 1, 2 and 2.5 g Ca/L with palatability to rats.
