Turbidity is the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid caused by large numbers of individual particles that are generally invisible to the naked eye, similar to smoke in air. The measurement of turbidity is a key test of both water clarity and water quality. Fluids can contain suspended solid matter consisting of particles of many different sizes.

As a consequence, a slightly different set of sedimentary structures develops in turbidites deposited by high-density turbidity currents. This different set of structures is known as the Lowe sequence , which is a descriptive classification that complements, but does not replace, the Bouma sequence.
In turbidites dish structure usually forms within Bouma C, occasionally also within Bouma B. Good examples of dish structure can be seen for instance in the Jack Fork Group in Oklahoma, in Ordovician turbidites at Cardigan in Wales, in deep-sea fan deposits near San Sebastián in Spain and in the Cerro Torro Formation of southern Chile.
Food physical chemistry is essential for improving the quality of foods, their stability, and food product development. Because food science is a multi-disciplinary field, food physical chemistry is being developed through interactions with other areas of food chemistry and food science, such as food analytical chemistry, food process ...
Intermediate moisture foods (IMF) are shelf-stable products that have water activities of 0.6-0.85, with a moisture content ranging from 15% - 40% and are edible without rehydration. [1] These food products are below the minimum water activity for most bacteria (0.90), but are susceptible to yeast and mold growth .
Geobacillus stearothermophilus (previously Bacillus stearothermophilus) [1] [2] is a rod-shaped, Gram-positive bacterium and a member of the phylum Bacillota.The bacterium is a thermophile and is widely distributed in soil, hot springs, ocean sediment, and is a cause of spoilage in food products.
Food rheology is the study of the rheological properties of food, that is, the consistency and flow of food under tightly specified conditions. [1] The consistency, degree of fluidity , and other mechanical properties are important in understanding how long food can be stored, how stable it will remain, and in determining food texture.
