2015 | Jones K | Research report/Update
A commercially viable, cost-ffective, rapid test has been developed that allows the macadamia industry to assess the shelf-life and quality of raw and roasted macadamia kernel.
2011 | Jones K | Research report/Update
This report provides outcomes from the Macadamia Shelf Life: Proof of Concept project to the funding body and stakeholders. The aim of this project is to demonstrate the efficacy of using NIR and/or E nose technology to predict the potential shelf life of macadamias. The project has demonstrated that a practical, rapid and cost-effective test can be developed which will distinguish between batches of raw kernel, with long or short shelf-life. The report also details the pros and cons of different technologies and provides an action plan for development of an industry standard test.
2010 | McConchie C | Research report/Update
Final report on research project to understand factors affecting kernel quality and shelf life.
2006 | McConchie C, Albertson P | Research report/Update
Final Report Research Project MC01008. The current project has provided tools for processors to predict the roasting response of raw
kernel prior to roasting.
2004 | Kaiser C | Research report/Update
A literature review to understand the causes and physiology of the browning reactions in 2003 and subsequent funded research in 2004 in an effort to reduce or eliminate the browning.
2003 | Albertson P, Kowitz T, McConchie C | Research report/Update
The aim of the current project was to investigate the use of UV-light (100-380 nm) to detect differences in kernel quality.
2003 | Wesley I, Kalitsis J, Albertson P, De Giovanni C, McConchie C | Research report/Update
The first step to developing NIR methods for sorting for roasting response is to translate the customer expectation into measurable properties.
2003 | De Giovanni C, Albertson P, Wilkie J, Wesley I, McConchie C | Research report/Update
Signals from nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy were successfully correlated to the oil content of dried macadamia kernel.
