Sintesi	Maillard Reaction Kinetics measures the rate of non-enzymatic browning when amino acids and reducing sugars react under heat. Understanding these kinetics enables optimization of flavor development, control of color changes during processing and storage, and prediction of product quality evolution.	Accelerated Shelf-Life Testing (ASLT) uses elevated temperature and controlled storage conditions to rapidly assess product degradation and predict realistic shelf-life without waiting months. By measuring quality parameters (moisture, acidity, nutrient levels, microbial growth) at accelerated conditions and applying kinetic modeling, ASLT predicts expiration dates and optimal storage parameters before market launch.	Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a thermal analysis technique that measures the heat absorbed or released by a sample as temperature changes, enabling characterization of starch gelatinization—the structural transformation of starch granules when heated with water. DSC reveals the temperature at which starch swells, the energy required, and the range over which this occurs, providing insight into starch source, processing history, and ingredient interactions.
