This study aimed to characterize corn (CS), wolf fruit (WF), and butterfly lily (BL) starches; to develop bioactive coatings from pure starches and their binary and ternary blends; and to evaluate the synergistic effects of these formulations on the physiological quality of common ...
Os aquênios de girassol apresentam elevado teor de óleo, podendo ser utilizados como matéria-prima para a produção de biodiesel. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o rendimento de óleo dos aquênios de girassol nas condições edafoclimáticas da região Sul Fluminense, sob influência do...
Buckwheat (Fagopyrum spp.), mainly represented by common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) and Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum), is a climate-resilient pseudocereal with high nutritional value. Its unique composition, rich in proteins, slowly digestible starches, and phenolic compounds, links sustainability&#x...
Background: Starch-based breads can closely mimic wheat bread in texture and appearance; however, their nutritional value must be improved while maintaining their inherent bread-like characteristics. The objective of this study was to incorporate whole-grain pearl millet flour (PMF) into a starch...
The development of gluten-free products entails substantial technological and formulation challenges, primarily due to the difficulty of reproducing the structural, sensory, and nutritional attributes of gluten-containing analogues. The absence of gluten—responsible for the viscoelastic network that confers ext...
This study aimed to verify the stability of cinnamon essential oil (CEO) nanoemulsions after their incorporation into polymer-based coatings for the control of anthracnose in mangoes. A 0.75% CEO emulsion with Tween 80 was produced via ultrasonication and incorporated into sodium alginate&#x...
Soy-based fermented probiotic drinks are an option in the beverage market. For the food industry to meet the challenge of the demand for new products, the technological simplification of the production process is one factor that facilitates market insertion. The objective of this w...
Mato Grosso State, Brazil, is the main producing region of native farmed round fish. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of Salmonella spp. in fish farms located in the Pantanal and Cerrado biomes, across eight municipalities, focusing on the hybrid species tambatinga (C...
The global fish industry faces persistent challenges related to product quality, safety, and authenticity, driven by complex supply chains, increasing demand, and the perishable nature of aquatic products. Traditional analytical methods often fall short in providing rapid, comprehensive, and non-destr...
O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar diferentes protocolos de extração de DNA em amostras de café, tanto verde quanto torrado, visando estabelecer um método capaz de garantir maior eficiência nas reações de qPCR utilizadas para genotipagem de espécies de café com elevado gr...
