  3. Fullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullerene

    Cylindrical fullerenes are also called carbon nanotubes or buckytubes. [1] The bulk solid form of pure or mixed fullerenes is called fullerite. [2] Fullerenes had been predicted for some time, but only after their accidental synthesis in 1985 were they detected in nature [3] [4] and outer space.

  4. Baker's yeast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker's_yeast

    Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast commonly used as baker's yeast. Gradation marks are 1 μm apart.. Baker yeast is the common name for the strains of yeast commonly used in baking bread and other bakery products, serving as a leavening agent which causes the bread to rise (expand and become lighter and softer) by converting the fermentable sugars present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ...

  5. Dough conditioner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dough_conditioner

    A dough conditioner, flour treatment agent, improving agent or bread improver is any ingredient or chemical added to bread dough to strengthen its texture or otherwise improve it in some way. Dough conditioners may include enzymes , yeast nutrients, mineral salts, oxidants and reductants , bleaching agents and emulsifiers . [ 1 ]

  6. Fullerene chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullerene_chemistry

    Fullerene chemistry is a field of organic chemistry devoted to the chemical properties of fullerenes. [1] [2] [3] Research in this field is driven by the need to functionalize fullerenes and tune their properties. For example, fullerene is notoriously insoluble and adding a suitable group can enhance solubility. [1]

  7. Buckminsterfullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckminsterfullerene

    These endohedral fullerenes are usually synthesized by doping in the metal atoms in an arc reactor or by laser evaporation. These methods gives low yields of endohedral fullerenes, and a better method involves the opening of the cage, packing in the atoms or molecules, and closing the opening using certain organic reactions. This method ...

  8. Sponge and dough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sponge_and_dough

    The sponge method is used for 3 different reasons: taste, texture and chemistry. The flavour that is created is dependent on the ingredients used and the fermenting yeast. Just like sourdough, the longer the ferment, the greater the taste difference. Sponge doughs were used before bread improvers were invented.

  9. Leavening agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leavening_agent

    The Chorleywood bread process uses a mix of biological and mechanical leavening to produce bread; while it is considered by food processors [who?] to be an effective way to deal with the soft wheat flours characteristic of British Isles agriculture, it is controversial [according to whom?] due to a perceived lack of quality in the final product ...
