Rice is one of the most frequently utilized ingredients in extruded snacks and cereals because of its wide availability and high expansion capability. To promote exports of rice, the diversification of value-added goods (processed rice products) is needed for various customers in the global market. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to process the rice cereal by a twin-screw extruder and to evaluate on physicochemical of extruded rice.
Rice is one of the most important crops used in the production of ready-to-cook (RTC) products such as noodles, rice vermicelli, ready-to-eat (RTE) breakfast cereals, and snacks due to its color, bland taste, and good processing properties. Extrusion is one of the most creative food processing methods that have been used for product development. This technique helps to improve the nutritional, functional, and sensory properties of the products. T
This study applied a high-pressure and high-temperature system using water as solvent, to extract the essential oil from kaffir lime peel. In this work, it aimed to determine the effect of temperature and gas such as N2 and CO2, on the yield of essential oils extracted from kaffir lime peel and volatile compounds in the extracted essential oils. The essential oils from kaffir lime peel were extracted using 300 g of sample combined with 300 ml of
Electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe emissions, which can help to improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Cambodia. The Cambodian government has set a target of increasing the share of electric vehicles in the country's fleet to 20% by 2030. To support this goal, the government has introduced a number of incentives for EV owners, such as tax exemptions and reduced import duties. With this policy, the number of charging stati
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is a green leafy vegetable popularly consumed fresh without prior cooking, potentially posing a health risk if poorly handled. For this reason, washing is crucial for reducing contaminated microorganisms before consumption. There are many commercial washing solutions in the market. Yet, their effectiveness remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the efficacies of different washing solutions, such as sing
The present study aimed to assess the proximate chemical compositions of 16 rice varieties collected from Battambang, Takeo, and Prey Veng provinces in Cambodia. Proximate chemical compositions including moisture content, protein, total carbohydrates, fiber, ash, lipids, and amylose content were subjected to analysis. The results showed that all chemical compositions of the 16 rice varieties varied significantly (p <0.05). The carbohydrates and p

Okara is an agro-waste yielded after liquid extraction of tofu and soymilk production. It contains protein, fiber, carbohydrates, and minerals making it a potential nutritious ingredient for foods. However, several million tonnes of okara are made and discharged annually after tofu and soymilk processing, leading to environmental and economic impacts. In addition, rice is also considered a stable cereal in the Cambodian diet, so rice flour is mix
Aquaculture plays an important part in Cambodia's food security and livelihoods. As the population grows, aquaculture is becoming economically important as a means of improving local fish yield for food security. Antimicrobial usage (AMU) in agricultural sector is a key driver of antimicrobial resistance and can be harmful for human health. Misuse and overuse of the antibiotic products are the two factors that contributing to the rise in antibiot
