A typical case or tray packing line requires multiple machines to form, pack and seal cases or trays; however, Eagles Case/Tray Packing System All-In-One solution takes a flat blank and discharges a shelf or pallet-ready package. By replacing three or four machines, the Case/Tray Packer not only uses significantly less space, it also reduces the owners carbon footprint by requiring less energy.
There are numerous methods for detecting protein interactions and aggregation kinetics, each varying in sensitivity and specificity. Composition-Gradient Multi-Angle Light Scattering (CG-MALS) is an ideal means for measuring proteins in their natural solution: protein samples need not be tagged, immobilised on a surface, or otherwise modified from their natural state.

Ed by Steve T. Beckett, pub. by Wiley-Blackwell 2008, 720pp,e181.30
Since the third edition of this standard work was published in 1999, there has been a significant increase in the amount of chocolate manufactured worldwide.
Anthocyanins for improving eye function. The anthocyanins and bioflavinoids present in many blue and purple coloured berries, such as bilberries and blackberries, are known to have beneficial effects in improving night vision by stimulating the production of rhodopsine, which increases blood circulation in capillary vessels.
robagFXIS 3ci series
The tna robagFXIS 3ci series for polyethylene (PE) packaging is the latest addition to the revolutionary vertical form fill and seal (VFFS) tna robag range and is designed with performance, simplicity and flexibility in mind. The new range features the worlds first rotary impulse sealing jaws system for the efficient packaging of ready to eat fruit and fresh vegetables at bagging speeds of up to 150bpm with consistent quality.

Aflatoxin is the generic name for several mycotoxins produced by the mould Aspergillus flavus that can grow on a wide range of nuts (peanuts, almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, etc.) as well as on grains and dried fruit such as figs, raisins, etc. Aflatoxin has been shown to be one of the most carcinogenic substances known to man so strict regulations are applied to the commerce in products that could be contaminated with the mycotoxin. Up until now detection of aflatoxin has been extremely difficult and involved using complicated sampling systems with each sample being examined with a short wavelength UV light under which the fungus fluoresced. The fluorescence response was however very weak and correlated only poorly to the actual amount of fungal contamination. A new sorter, using multiple laser optics, has now been developed by the Belgian-based company Best; the new system enables detection and sorting of aflatoxins at a normal processing flow. The new sorter is based on a set of free-fall laser sorters, which combine structural measurements with full spectrum RGB colour sorting. The system can be configured with up to twelve laser sensors so providing the highest detection resolution on the market. Extensive tests of the new systems have been carried out under real production conditions (several tons of nuts per hour) and the results compared with the standard laborious sampling/testing system. It was found that the new system accurately rejected contaminated products and reduced final aflatoxin levels far below the accepted 5ppb level, without erroneously rejecting uncontaminated product.

Automated and flexibile packing technologies.
The VP 501 high speed case packer has been designed to efficiently pack shaped bottles made of PET and HDPE plastic. The machine can process up to 7 different bottle shapes in over 20 formations. The machines strengths lie in the dividing system designed specifically for shaped bottles and in the controlled guiding of the products from the infeed up to the packing into wrap-around cases. Format changes are fully automatic and with no parts to remove or replace, they are also fast and precise. The formats and settings can be saved and recalled later to ensure exact and reliable replication. The machine is designed to operate continuously over a long period of time and for this purpose has been equipped with a high capacity blank magazine.
The construction of the popular FTS-B-HD 32 bag closing machine has been optimised to simplify cleaning and maintenance. The machine closes multilayered paper bags and when these are lined with PE-inners, a hermetic seal results. The integrated cleaning station means that packaging dusty materials poses no problem and the FTS-closure is ideal for the hygenic sealing of bags containing food products. Improved electrical and pneumatic systems, simplified cleaning and maintenance and an enhanced control system complete the upgrades.

Blow-moulder/filler for the low output range
Equally suitable for soft drinks, still water and beer, the Synchroblock A module is a cost-efficient system comprising a blow-moulder and filler unit. Suitable for low to mid production ranges, the system can blow-mould and fill up to 8,000 containers an hour, without having to use any air conveyors. This provides users with many advantages such as a significant reduction in operating costs and lower water consumption. The blow-moulding unit is versatile enough to produce container sizes ranging from 0.1 to 3.0 litres. For this reason, access to the machine has been specially simplified, so that the moulds can be changed swiftly and easily. The containers are passed via a transfer table to the isobaric filler, whose pneumatically controlled VKP filling valves assure accurate, foam-free filling. The machine is optimised in terms of hygiene and microbiological safety.

Animal fats
Animal fats
Cooking in animal fats is a traditional means of preparing many foods and beef dripping is key to various food applications. Beef dripping is an excellent frying fat with a very long frying life. Rancimate analysis results show that the frying performance of beef dripping is higher than of palm fat and even four times higher than of rapeseed oil. Beef dripping in baked foods improves the texture of rolls through a consistent pore structure as well as a good elasticity. A higher yield can be reached with a lower fat quantity than with butter and baking margarine, while rolls remain good and crispy. Even in instant soups and ready-made meals beef dripping is a superb ingredient for its high temperature resistance and its beef taste.
A new range of baby food rice starch is now available worldwide and ideal for use in fruit and vegetable based jars. Following in-depth assessment of production processes, including extensive testing, BENEOs baby food rice starch meets and exceeds industry and regulatory requirements. The new product range also offers a wide range of nutritional and technical benefits to manufacturers. The naturally sourced texturizer qualifies for hypoallergenic, clean label, organic, as well as non-GMO products. Test trials have shown that vegetable and fruit jars with BENEOs baby food rice starch have improved product stability in terms of viscosity, syneresis control and shelf-life. In addition, the ingredients small particle size creates a creamy texture without any effect on the end products taste or colour. Rice is furthermore highly digestible and consequently interesting for baby food applications.
