Abstract
The main purpose of this research is experimental and theoretical study on demulsifying components effect on demulsification rate of water-in-oil emulsions. In other words, some surfactants is considered and their function as a demulsifier in breaking crude oil emulsions has been investigated by bottle test. To develop a theoretical model to take into account the effect of demulsifier agent on demulsification rate of water-in-oil emulsion. Considering similarity between gas adsorption, and agent adsorption on the water-oil interface, a Langmuir isotherm based model is developed to correlate interfacial tension of water and oil phases to demulsifier concentration. Based on the proposed correlation, the collision frequency function in population balance equation is modified to account the effect of demulsifier agent on water droplets coalescence. The proposed model consists of some adjustable parameters that need to be fitted with experimental data. Therefore, a group of surface-active compounds are supplied and their demulsification capability is investigated through bottle test method. The experimental demulsification results are compared with population balance simulation results and it is apperared that the developed model could appropriately reproduce experimental data at different agent concentrations.

Abstract
This trial was to investigate the effect of emulsifier on growth performance, blood factors and carcass composition in rainbow trout (Onchorhyncus mykiss) fed fat powder diet. A basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients supplemented with 0.5 and 1% of cholic acid and 2 and 4% of tween80, plus a control diet without emulsifier, leading to five experimental diets. Juvenile rainbow trout with an initial weight of 27.32±2.03 g was fed with experimental diets for 8 weeks. The results showed no significant differences between the value of body weight increasing (BWI), specific growth rate (SGR), feed efficiency ratio (FCR) and hepato somatic index (HSI) (P>0.05) while, visceral somatic index (VSI) was significantly higher in control diet. Emulsifier had significant effects on blood parameters such as white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), hematocrit (Hct), hemoglobin (Hb), MCV, MCH and MCHc (P<0.05). Diet containing 0.5% cholic acid showed higher value of WBC while control diet led to higher value of RBC. Results of serum analysis showed that inclusion of emulsifier was effected albumin, glucose and total protein value (P<0.05). 0.5% cholic acid led to the highest value among groups. Assessment of carcass composition showed significant differences among diets (P<0.05). The highest body protein values were observed in diet 0.5% cholic acid while body fat was the lowest in the same diet. It seems that emulsifier could maintain protein by fat utilization and considering no significant differences between different treatments of growth performance addition of 0.5% cholic acid is suggested.

Abstract
Selco enriching emulsion includes compounds from certain oils with marine and herbal origins. Selco oil produces micro-globules with less than 0.1 micron diameter. In order to generate such stability in original selco chemical emulsifiers have been used up to 3%. In this study, persian gum )Amygdalus scopariaspeech( and salep (Orchis mascula (were used as herbal emulsifiers in synthesis of Artemia enriching for a content of 11% to establish emulsification. The soluble part of persian gum and salep was separated with 30% and 22% content, respectively. Through chemical analysis, the chemical composition of the imported Selco oil was identified. Then the similar ingredients of the commercial brand were combined to produce our synthesized production. In physical computing, the average diameter and distribution of oil phase particles side was obtained as 0.1 micron and the relevant surface tension as 15±5 DIN/cm. Then the synthesyzed enriching oil (treatment 1) with the imported one (treatment 2) were tested for Artemia urmiana enriching with standard conditions. Enriching conducted in 3 repetitions with 0.4 gr/lit of the enriching oils/1 lit of water. Nauplii were introduced as 200000 nauplii/lit. The average of nauplii enriching percentage in treatments 1 and 2 was achieved as 27±2.47 and 23±2.52 percent, respectively. The bioassay results on 500 new feed larvae of trout fish has been shown that treatments 1 and 2 were significantly differed in survival. Therefore, the plant emulsifiers in this study, showed good performances as the chemical and physical properties, in stabilizing the oil emulsion in the aqueous phase.

Abstract
Nowadays, additives are commonly used in cooking industry. Emulsifiers are one of the important materials generally used to improve the quality and efficiency of dough, to make the usability of dough easier, and to reduce dough wastage through delaying the staling time. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of adding two kinds of emulsifier including DATEM and Glycerol mono stearate In 3 levels of %0,% 0/2, and %0/4 and Lipase Enzyme in 3 levels of 0, 100, and 200 PPM(activity 25KLU/g). The influence of adding above-mentioned materials was sought in qualitative and quantitative features of doughnut made from solid dough (texture, moisture, activity water (AW), specific volume, porosity, and general acceptability). According to the random statistical study and the obtained significant difference (p<0/05) among treatments, it was shown that the combinations with %0/2 of Datem, %0/2 of GMS and 100 PPM of Lipase Enzyme presented the most specific volume, porosity, moisture and the least hardness level, and consequently low speed staling 2 hours after cooking and 4 days after maintenance. This instance won the highest grade from tasting judges. The result indicated that after the experiment the qualitative and quantitative features of doughnut improved in comparison with the instance case. The case with %0/2 of Datem, %0/2 of GMS and 100 PPM of Lipase Enzyme showed lower speed of staling. Other parameters such as moisture level, activity water (AW), volume, porosity level, and general acceptability also presented better condition in this case.

Abstract
In this research, response surface methodology was used to investigate the influence of improver gel components on the dough farinographic properties and quality of Barbari bread and optimization of gel formulation. Gel samples were prepared using sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate (SSL), diacetyl tartaric acid esters of monoglyceride (DATEM) and propylene glycol (PG) in the range of 0-0.5 g/100g. The results showed that addition of all three components to the gel formula caused decrement in the water absorption, dough characteristics i.e. development time and mixing tolerance index and bread hardness at first day but all of these parameters except of water absorption affected by their interaction. Dough stability and valorimeter value increased by increasing the gel components addition and were affected by their interaction. Although bread properties i.e. specific volume, moisture content, water activity, sensory score and ΔE increased by addition of SSL and DATEM but the decrease of moisture content, water activity and ΔE was observed by increasing the propylene glycol. The represented models have high determination coefficients and could be used for prediction of all investigated characteristics. The results for optimization using central composite design suggested that a mixture containing 0.5 g/100g of SSL, 0.25 g/100g of DATEM and 0.5 g/100g of PG could be a good improver gel to achieve the best characteristics.

Abstract
In the present study, the influence of various emulsifiers (Tween 80, Tween 60, Tween 20, Sodium caseinate, WPC and WPI), ratio of emulsifier (Tween 80) to oil phase (orange peel essential oil) at eight levels (1, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, and 3:1), and the possibility of using complete form, soluble and insoluble fractions of the two native gums (Persian gum and gum tragacanth) individually and combined in the formulations on the formation and some properties of orange peel essential oil nanoemulsions was evaluated. Ultrasonic emulsification technique was used to produce nanoemulsions and the mean droplet diameter (Z-average), polydispersity index, viscosity, flow behavior, physical stability of selected formulations during storage (up to 90 days at 25˚C), as well as the total input energy during process was evaluated. Our results showed that surfactant-to-oil ratio (SOR) had a significant effect on the mentioned properties (P< 0.0001) where the lowest Z-average was observed at SOR=2. Meanwhile, none of the local gums and proteins were able to form nanoemulsions in the absence of emulsifier (Tween 80). Moreover, their soluble fractions (individually and combined at reasonably low concentration) showed significant effect (P< 0.0001) on the measured properties in the presence of emulsifier. Furthermore, the flow behavior of nanoemulsions was Newtonian, and the effect of storage time on the Z-average value was significant (P< 0.0001).

Abstract
Physical and functional properties of the milk powder play an important role in the formulation of various food products. In this study, the effects of adding Lecithin (1%) and Tween 80 (0.1%) as emulsifiers, di sodium EDTA and sodium citrate dihydrat (SCD) each one 5 mM as chelating agents, NaCl (0.08%) and CaCl2 (0.01%) as salts in improving Physical and functional characteristics of skim milk powder (thermal stability, bulk density and particle size distribution) were investigated. These compounds were added to skim milk prior to spray drying. The results showed that chelating agents and salts had different effects on the heat stability of milk powders when compared with the emulsifiers. The heat stability of milk powder enhanced when SCD and NaCl used simultaneously, while it was reduced significantly, with using EDTA and NaCl and consequently, the higher heat stability was found for powders produced by tween80, SCD and NaCl. The best particle size distribution and bulk density were observed for samples treated with Tween 80 and the milk powder produced by adding of Tween 80, EDTA and CaCl2 led to better particle size distribution. In general, the results of this study showed that simultaneous use of Tween 80, SCD and NaCl resulted in improved functional characteristics of non-fat milk powder.

Abstract
Food industry researchers are looking for suitable alternatives for solid fat to reduce the adverse effects of saturated, hydrogenated and trans fats, including a new method called "oleogel". One of the oleogel production approaches is emulsion preparation. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to prepare an oleogel by emulsion production using sodium caseinate (emulsifier) and xanthan gum (thickening agent) biopolymers. To investigate the possibility of producing oleogel in this way, first emulsions with different concentration of sodium caseinate (2% and 4%) and xanthan gum (0.2% and 0.4%) with vegetable oil (60% wt / wt) were prepared then the particle size, zeta potential, microscopic images and rheological properties (viscosity, loss and storage modulus) of the samples were studied. Based on the results, increasing sodium caseinate concentration significantly reduced droplet size but the effect of xanthan gum concentration on the mentioned parameter was insignificant, therefore the droplet size in the CX44 sample reduce to 13.75 microns (P>0.05). The results of rheological tests showed that the storage modulus was higher than the loss modulus, indicating strong gel formation for the oleogel production with a desirable texture. Oleogel was then prepared using freeze drier. The results of the hardness of the dried samples and oil loss in the respective oleogels showed a significant effect of the two biopolymers concentration in which with increased biopolymers concentration hardness of dried products improved and the oil loss decreased where the hardness and the oil loss of the sample containing the highest concentration of two biopolymers (CX44) reached to 18.22 N and 0.162%, respectively. Therefore, the emulsion preparation method is a suitable approach for oleogel production with desirable properties for the replacement of high saturated and trans fat products which can guarantee public health.

Abstract
In present study, ice cream containing 0.5% of carboxymethyle cellulose and xanthan separately, fat at levels of 10 and 14%, and pressure of homogenization at two levels 140 and 180 bar were prepared and physicochemical, textural and sensory properties of each sample were measured. Data were analyzed by SPSS.The results obtained from physicochemical traits showed that A7 and A10 treatments had the highest pH. Dry matter of samples containing 14% fat was significantly higher than others. Samples containing Xanthan gum had lower volume comparisons with the control sample and samples containing carboxymethyle cellulose gum. The viscosity of the A6 sample was significantly higher than other treatments. The results of texture profile analyzer showed that samples of (A3), (A4), (A7) and (A8) have maximum hardness. Also, the adhesiveness of samples containing Xanthan gum was higher than those of carboxymethyl cellulose contents. The lowest cohesiveness and springiness were attributed to A8. The results of sensory evaluations showed that there was no significant difference in odor, taste and color of the samples. A8 treatment was introduced as superior treatment.

Abstract
Cake as a popular snack among different people in the community, especially children and adolescents. This high-energy product should have a porous texture, small holes with narrow border to have an acceptable marketability. Therefore, research and investment to achieve the desired quality and increase shelf life through the use of additives such as enzymes, emulsifiers, etc. seems necessary. In this regard, in order to improve the quality of cupcakes, which have a faster preparation than other cakes, the effect of two factors, glucose oxidase (0, 10, 50 and 100 ppm) and DATEM (0, 0.5 and 1%) was investigated. The results showed that the samples containing DATEM increased the moisture content, decreased the weight loss after baking and improved the volume and texture of the cake in terms of reducing firmness and increasing the cohesiveness and springiness. On the other hand, glucose oxidase addition decreased the firmness of the treatments caused by DATEM. However, the addition of glucose oxidase enzyme to the cake formulation improved the crust color parameters and sensory evaluation. So, the effect of glucose oxidase and DATEM, improved the sensory and quality characteristics of cupcake.

Abstract
The purpose of this research is to investigate the replacement of different levels of chickpea flour (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) with quinoa flour and the addition of monoglyceride emulsifier at levels of 0, 0.5 and 1% to the formulation of gluten-free cookies. In this research, the amount of ash, protein, moisture, specific volume, firmness and sensory properties (form and shape, surface, texture, cheweness, odor and taste, and overall acceptance) of the samples were evaluated. The results showed that the moisture, ash and fat content of quinoa flour was higher and its protein content was lower than chickpea flour. By increasing the level of replacing chickpea with quinoa flour in the formulation of gluten-free cookies, the amount of moisture and ash was increased and the amount of protein was decreased. The sample containing 25% quinoa flour and 0.5% monoglyceride emulsifier had the highest specific volume (0.98 ml/g) and the lowest firmness (31.37 N). The presence of quinoa flour and the increase of its level in the formulation showed L* value decreased and a* value increased. The sensory evaluation showed the sample containing 25% quinoa flour (without emulsifier) and the sample containing 25% quinoa flour and 0.5% monoglyceride emulsifier had better than other samples. It should be noted that the samples containing 50% quinoa flour in the presence of 0.5% monoglyceride emulsifier were of high quality and quantity, and the overall acceptance score and physicochemical characteristics of these samples were favorable. Therefore, samples containing 25 quinoa flour and 0.5% monoglyceride emulsifier are introduced as the best samples of gluten-free cookies in this research.

Abstract
In this research, three different types of hydrocolloids (chitosan ,tragacanth, hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose) 2 % on the basis of flour weight and three different kinds of emulsifiers (lecithin, glycerol mono stearate, propylene glycol) 1 % on the basis of flour weight, were added in different proportions to sponge cake's formulation in order to assay quality indicators of cake. Bulk density, true density, aw (water activity), moisture, amylose content, texture analysis, microbial growth and colour (hue, chroma) were used as quality indices during cake's shelf life period (12 weeks). Colour, aw and firmness did not significantly affect by any of hydrocolloids and emulsifiers and they affected only by the storage time. HPMC and lecithin had the most effect on decreasing true density and bulk density respectively. Results indicated that chitosan was the most effective hydrocolloid for retention of moisture in cakes. The amylose content increased by increasing lecithin during the six weeks and PG had significant effect in last three weeks of storage time. Lecithin also significantly affected the Fmax, so the cake's with high levels of lecithin in formulation had tender crust, and hardness decreased during the first six weeks of shelf life. No microbial growth was reported in addition of different proportions of hydrocolloids and emulsifiers. Except of lecithin, two other emulsifiers had no significant effect on Chroma index in comparison with control cakes.
