The aim of the research is to characterize chestnut honey by using physicochemical methods to achieve a specific profile. Determination of polyphenols content gives indications of the antioxidant properties of chestnut honey. Changes in quality parameters have been studied regarding acidity, pH, viscosity, dry matter and anthocyanin content. The obtained results indicate variations in the pH of honey samples between 4.9-6.7, the acidity of honey samples varied from 0.21 to 0.41. The honey viscosity was determined ...

In mayonnaise formulation various types of oil (sunflower, rice and olive oil) were preliminary used. In the production of low fat mayonnaise, the most sensorially acceptable oils were used. Low fat (LF) mayonnaise was produced at different levels of oil with different types (xanthan gum, XG; agar, A; and a combination of XG and A, 1:1) and levels (0.00, 0.20, 0.40, 0.60, 0.80 and 1.00%) of hydrocolloid gums. All samples were compared to traditional full fat (FF) mayonnaise. The most sensorially acceptable oils we...
