The article presents the results of a study of structure-mechanical and organoleptic characteristics of the new paste-like emulsion product. It has been established that it has thixotropic properties, is rich in animal protein and has adjusted fatty acid composition.

A method and a compact, highly efficient and economical unit for drying and decontamination of plant raw material have been developed. The method consists of a short time heat treatment of preshredded plant material in the fluidized bed. The novelty of the idea is to use the innovative technological method of interaction between two-phase solid and gaseous systems in the cylinder apparatus in the suspended state, permitting to use higher temperatures of the drying agent and to prevent the thermal damage and the product agglomeration. The proposed method provides high quality decontamination of plant raw material from microbial and other pathogenic contamination preserving its useful properties.

The research is devoted to the study of the effect of heat application on vacuum concentration of liquid dairy products. It has been noticed that the density of a heat flow is not a less important factor for liquid dairy products concentration than temperature and residual pressure. The effect of heat quantity on organoleptic, physico-chemical characteristics, density and viscosity of concentrated products, heat flow temperature and density change, heat specific expenses during concentration of liquid dairy products has been investigated.

The review shows the role of the chronobiological approach as one of the promising ways for the development and testing of functional foods as a section of modern biotechnology.

The scientific substantiation of new formulae of biologically active additives to food for sportspeople of various qualifications is given. In representative groups of highly skilled swimmers and skiers the efficiency of special foods has been proved by means of their inclusion in the diet and studying the specific indications of metabolic processes taking place in the bodies of sportspeople.

Evaluation of the cheese product presented as a snack and produced using new technology has been carried out. Based on the multifactor analysis, the conclusions on its main consumer properties have been made.

Nutritional status of people living in the Siberian regions, over the past 10-15 years has been analyzed. Scientific and methodological approaches to the formation of consumer properties of products from plant raw materials and functional foods based on them, adapted to extreme factors and negative environmental conditions of work and living in the Siberian region have been formulated. The methodical approach to the plant raw material processing and creation on their basis functional beverages and milk-containing, meat, bakery and confectionery products proposes: 1) to widen the product assortment to meet the needs of different population groups in the Siberian region; 2) to ensure food safety. The diversity of flavor and functional characteristics of foods, as well as raising their biological value are achieved by their enrichment with plant and mineral additives containing natural antioxidants, micro- and macroelements, sorbents and having anti-carcinogenic, anti-mutagenic, adaptation properties.

The qualimetric model of bakery foods and flour confectionery evaluation has been developed. To transfer the indices of consumer preferences into the quantitatively measured indices the structurization of the function of bakery foods and flour confectionery quality has been carried out. The model proposed considers quality as the hierarchical totality of properties. The indices of the first level of the model are: safety, physiologically functional properties, the complex quality index used to evaluate organoleptic properties and texture, the indices of nutritional quality and cost. The generalized quality index is the function of the single and complex quality indices and it makes possible to compare and rank similar products.

This article presents an approach which can be used for the representation of material flow processes while dealing with the problem of dosing and mixing regimes control. In this technique the matching pursuit algorithm has been adapted for approximating the flow signals registered at the output of a dosing devices block. As a result of this procedure, the wavelet approximated signals are afterwards transformed into the so-called Wigner distributions (maps) which are the material energy flow signals density distributions over time-frequency space. The advantages, limitations, and possible extensions of the approach considered are outlined. An example on the reconstruction of a flow signal has been reviewed.

Two aspects of forming and equipping the structure of a mixture-producing aggregate with the purpose of obtaining a high-quality finished product have been considered in the paper. The aim of the first aspect is increasing a smoothing ability for continuous-type mixers with recycling and by-pass channels. The second aspect concerns modeling the processes in the aggregate on the basis of dynamic systems transfer functions techniques and the theory of signal graphs to determin the most comfort and associated performance regimes for dosing and mixing equipment.
