Abstract

The vane method was used to measure yield stresses of 15 commercial food dispersions under controlled shear stress (Cσ) and controlled shear rate (C) operating conditions. Magnitudes of yield stress (σσ) at Cσ were higher than those of yield stress (σ) at C on tomato products and baby foods. There were good linear correlations (R2= 0.96, 0.86) between γ and σσ for food dispersions with undisturbed structure (UDS) and with broken down structure (BDS). Data obtained under Cσ were also used to calculate shear moduli of foods.
