The present study was conducted on secondary data for total Pulses to find out the trends, growth rate, percent share in area, production and yield from the year 1970-71 to 2019-20 both for India and Punjab separately. The data was collected from various secondary surces. The area of total pulses...

The demand for pulses is increasing due to their numerous nutritional, sustainability, and agronomical advantages. However, studies on the bulk and dynamic flow properties of pulse flours, which are crucial for adequate handling and processing, are scarce. This study was performed to investigate...

Objectives: The purpose of this paper was to study the effect of pulsed light technology on the reduction of bacteria in chilled chicken and provide a basis for its application in the chilled chicken industry. Methods: Taking pulse voltage, pulse distance and pulse time as test factors, single...

Background: Pulses can play a key role in a well-balanced diet and are now recognized for their health and sustainability benefits. However, consumption remains quite low, motivating promotion efforts such as the "International Year of Pulses" declared by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) ...

Pulses provide economic and health benefits to people in many countries around the world; however, their adoption in western diets, particularly in processed and formulated foods, is limited. One strategy to increase the level of pulses in western diets is to improve pulse accessibility to the...

The peculiarity of India's pulse production scenario highlighted that although India is the largest producer of pulses in the world, its domestic demand outstrips domestic production and the shortfall is met from imports. India imported nearly 5.6 million tons of pulses worth Rs. 18748 crore during ...

Anisakid nematode larvae are found in fish and cephalopods and causes anisakiasis when humans consume raw or undercooked seafood. The only practical way to kill anisakid nematode larvae apart from heating has been freezing, but killing them using electrical pulsed power technology is expected to be ...

There has been a growing demand for pulses due to the nutrition, health benefits, and agronomical advantages, along with the recommendation of international organizations to diversify the use of pulses. Lentil, yellow pea, and chickpea were studied for their effect on the quality of the bread when...

The shift towards healthier and sustainable food consumption requires a greater variety of plant-based products. This study aimed to determine how the mechanical and sensory properties of three different pulse gels (chickpea, lentil, or red lentil flour) vary with the ingredients (flour, oil,...

In this study, a superheated steam (SHS) system was constructed to inactivate Bacillus cereus endospores on the surface of black pepper, and continuous and pulsed treatment was applied to compare sporicidal effects. Additionally, inactivation mechanisms were analyzed to investigate the differences...
