EFFECT OF VACUUM TREATMENT ON STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF MAIZE KERNEL PREVIOUSLY SUBJECTED TO HYDRO-THERMAL PROCESSING

The effects of applied hydro-thermal treatment of maize kernels and following it vacuum pressure on changes in seed moisture content (dry basis), destructive force, energy to destroy a single kernel, and changes in horizontal projection area of a single kernel, were determined in the studies. Dent maize kernels, used as an experimental material, were subjected to hydro-thermal processing (boiling for 20 and 30 min at a temperature of 100^oC), and next to the treatment in vacuum pressure (20 kPa) for 1, 3 and 5 min. In the whole range of applied vacuum pressure treatment durations the higher values of destructive force and energy were observed for the kernel hydro-thermally treated for over 20 min, in comparison to those treated for over 30 min.

W latach 2022-2024 kwartalnik naukowy Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences realizuje projekt nr RCN/SP/0520/2021/1 finansowany ze środków budżetu państwa – Ministerstwo Edukacji i Nauki w ramach programu „Rozwój czasopism naukowych”. Dofinansowanie wynosi 120 000 zł. W ramach projektu podejmowane są działania zmierzające do podniesienia poziomu praktyk wydawniczych i edytorskich, zwiększenia wpływu czasopism na rozwój nauki oraz utrzymania się czasopism w międzynarodowym obiegu naukowym.

In the years 2022-2024, the scientific quarterly Polish Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences accomplishes a project no. RCN/SP/0520/2021/1 financed from the state budged – Ministry of Education and Science Republic of Poland in the framework of a program “Development of scientific journals”. The financing amounts to 120,000 PLN. The program aims at improving the level of publishing and editing practices, increasing the impact of scientific journals on science development, and extending the international range of scientific journals.
