A adição de diferentes substâncias activas em produtos cosméticos, por exemplo, vitaminas e seus derivados, tem sido bastante frequente. Desta forma, é fundamental avaliar a estabilidade e eficácia de formulações cosméticas que contêm estes ingredientes. O objectivo deste trabalho foi o de avaliar a estabilidade física e a eficácia clínica da hidratação formulações cosméticas com base em pantenol, e contendo tetraisopalmitato de ascorbilo e a-tocoferol. Por isso, as formulações foram desenvolvidas com pantenol (FA), pantenol e tetraisopalmitato de ascorbilo e a-tocoferol (FBC), que foi submetido à análise do comportamento reológico, caracterizando-as como estável. Em seguida, foram subjectivamente e objectivamente analisados ??quanto à eficácia clínica em 25 voluntários por avaliação sensorial e técnicas de bioengenharia cutânea, em termos de teor de água do estrato córneo, a perda de água transepidérmica (TEWL) e microrrelevo da pele, antes e depois de 3 horas de aplicação . As formulações estudadas apresentaram estabilidade aceitável de acordo com os aspectos físicos considerados. Nos estudos de eficácia clínica, ambas as formulações melhoraram significativamente a hidratação da pele e reduziram a TEWL, e também demonstraram uma melhoria no microrrelevo da pele, mas estes resultados não foram estatisticamente significativos. FBC recebeu notas superiores FApor análise sensorial, com melhoria significativa da suavidade da pele, além de ser preferido em intenção de compra.

A melhoria de produtos e processos industriais pode ser realizada utilizando-se métodos de otimização experimental. Este trabalho apresenta um método estruturado para otimização envolvendo variáveis relacionadas com qualidade, comumente utilizadas, e variáveis que descrevem a confiabilidade do produto. O interesse em particular, está em sistematizar uma forma apropriada de determinar o prazo de garantia de produtos, baseado em testes de degradação acelerados. Para atingir este propósito utiliza-se projeto de experimentos conjuntamente com técnicas de avaliação sensorial, utilizada para medir o grau de degradação das amostras provindas dos testes de confiabilidade acelerados. O método é ilustrado com um estudo de caso realizado num produto fabricado em injeção de plástico. No exemplo do estudo de caso, deseja-se modelar a garantia de um piso plástico utilizado, na maternidade, para criação de suínos. Até o momento da realização da análise ocorriam reclamações de problemas com o produto dentro do prazo e garantia. O principal problema era a delaminação do produto devida a intensa fucção entre os cascos do animal e o piso. Um número elevado de reclamações durante o prazo de garantia levou ao desenvolvimento de uma nova composição do piso; o método proposto aqui é utilizado para determinar um prazo de garantia apropriado para produtos novos.

Objetivou-se avaliar as características físicas, químicas e sensoriais da carne de búfalos abatidos em diferentes períodos de confinamento. Foram utilizados 20 bubalinos da raça Murrah, castrados, descornados, com idade média inicial de 15 meses, abatidos aos 75, 100, 125 ou 150 dias de confinamento. Após o abate, as carcaças foram identificadas e resfriadas por 24 horas. Durante a desossa, foram colhidas amostras do contrafilé entre a 10ª e 11ª costelas para análise das características sensoriais e das perdas por cocção; entre a 11ª e 12ª costelas para avaliação da composição centesimal, do valor calórico, do pH e do índice de fragmentação miofibrilar (IFM); e entre a 12ª e 13ª costelas para a avaliação do escore de marmorização e da força de cisalhamento. A composição centesimal, o pH, a força de cisalhamento, o valor calórico, as perdas por cocção e o IFM não diferiram estatisticamente entre os períodos de confinamento. O grau de marmorização diferiu entre as idades de abate, uma vez os animais abatidos aos 75 dias de confinamento apresentaram escore de 1,25; os abatidos aos 100 e 125 dias, escore 2; e aqueles abatidos aos 150 dias de confinamento, escore 2,2. em todos os períodos de confinamento, a carne bubalina foi classificada como macia (média 3,94 kgf) e apresentou com características que não diferiram pelo painel sensorial entre os 75 e 150 dias de confinamento. O abate de bubalinos aos 75 e 150 dias de confinamento não influencia as características sensoriais sabor, aroma e cor da carne bubalina.

This study aimed to investigate the foam mat drying process of pineapple and mango pulp, as well as to evaluate the final product quality. Initially, the selection of fruit and additives was conducted based on density and stability determinations of mango, seriguela, umbu and pineapple foams. After selecting pineapple and mango for further studies, the fruit pulps and fruit foams were characterized in regard to their physicochemical composition. The temperature (60oC or 70oC) and the foam thickness (4 and 11 mm) were evaluated in accordance to the obtained drying curves and after model adjustment. Mango and pineapple powders obtained at the best process conditions were characterized in regard to their physicochemical composition, solubility, reconstitution time. Yoghurts were prepared with the addition of pineapple and mango powders and they were evaluated for their sensory acceptance. Results show that the best drying rates were achieved by using 70o C and layers 4mm thick for both fruits. The Page model successfully fitted the drying experimental data and it can be used as a predictive model. Pineapple and mango powders showed acid pH, high soluble solids content, low water activity (approx. 0.25), lipids between 1.46% and 2.03%, protein around 2.00%, and ascorbic acid content of 17,73 mg/100g and 14.32 mg/100g, for mango and pineapple, respectively. It was observed higher ascorbic acid retention for pineapple and mango powders processed at 70o C, which would be explained by the lower drying time applied. The fruit powders exhibited high solubility and fast reconstitution in water. The sensory acceptance indexes for yoghurts with the addition of both fruit powders were higher than 70%, which reflect the satisfactory product acceptance

This work studies the fabrication of spaghetti through the process at high temperatures through the use of flour added to flour and flaxseed meal, with the aim of evaluating the final product quality and estimate the cost of production. The values of moisture, ash, protein, wet gluten, gluten index, falling number and grain of flour and mixtures to test to be the possible use in mass manufacturing and technological criteria for compliance with current legislation. Spaghetti noodles type were manufactured by adding 10% and 20% flour and 10% and 20% flaxseed meal with performance of physical-chemical, sensory and rheological properties of the products. Further analysis was performed on the product acceptance and estimation of production cost in order to create subsidies to enable the introduction of products with greater acceptance and economic viability in the market by the food industry. On the rheology of the product test was cooking the pasta, specifying the volume increase, cooking time and percentage of solid waste. In the sensory evaluation was carried out the triangular test of product differentiation with 50 trained judges and acceptance testing by a hedonic scale with evaluation of the aspects color, taste, smell and texture. In defining the sensory profile of the product was performed with ADQ 9 judges recruited and trained at the factory, using unstructured scale of 9 cm, assessing the attributes of flavor of wheat, flax flavor, consistency, texture of raw pasta, raw pasta color and color of cooked pasta. The greater acceptance of product quality was good and the pasta with 20% flour, 10% followed by the full product, 10% and 20% flaxseed characterized the average quality of the criterion of loss analysis of solids, together with mass full commercial testing. In assessing the estimated cost of production, the two products more technologically feasible and acceptable (20% whole and 10% flaxseed) were evaluated in high temperature processes. With total cost of R $ 4,872.5 / 1,000 kg and R $ 5,354.9 / 1,000 kg respectively, the difference was related to the addition of lower inputs and higher added value in the market, flour and flaxseed meal. The comparative analysis of cases was confirmed the reduction in production time (10h), more uniform product to the drying process at high temperature compared to conventional

This work targetet the caprine ice cream production added with probiotic bacteria Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis. It is divided into two parts. In the first one, four caprine ice cream formulations were evaluated, in which it was used hydrogenated fat (F1 and F3) or fat substitute (F2 and F4) in two different flavors (F1 and F2, passion fruit, F3 and F4, guava). Statistical differences (p<0.05) were detected for their physical-chemical properties, mainly for total solids and fat, but no differences were observed for melting test results. When it went to sensory acceptance, all four ice cream formulations reached high acceptance indexes, mostly formulation F4, which was selected for further studies. In the second part, F4 formulation was prepared with the addition of probiotic bacteria Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis. The growth kinetics was studied and it was observed that the cellular concentration peak was reached after four fermentation hours (10.14 log UFC/g). This time was selected for pre-fermentation procedure and posterior addition at ice cream syrup. In this part of the study, two experimental groups were evaluated: group G1, in which the probiotic addition occurred before the maturation step and group G2, which included a pre-fermentation step and probiotic addition after ice cream maturation. The physical-chemical properties of these two ice cream groups were similar, except for pH, which was higher for group G2 (p<0.05). G1 samples had superior melting rate (3.566 mL/min) and both groups presented microbiological and sanitary results in accordance to current Brazilian legislation. Also, G1 and G2 were considered sensory accepted due to their acceptance indexes higher than 70%. G1 and G2 sensory profiles were similar (p>0.05), and both ice cream samples exhibited high creaminess (6.76 to 6.91) and mouth melting sensation (6.53 to 6.67) scores, while low sandiness scores (0.85 to 0.86) were observed, positive characteristics for this kind of food product. During the first 24 hours after ice cream production, the population of B. animalis subsp. lactis decreased, reaching 7.15 e 6.92 log CFU/g for G1 and G2, respectively. Probiotic bacteria counts fluctuated in ice cream samples during the first 108 days at frozen storage, especially for G2 group. Decreased probiotic viability was observed for G1 samples during the first 35 days of frozen storage, mild variation between 35 and 63 days and stabilized counts were observed after this time. After 21 days at frozen storage, ice cream samples of G1 and G2 groups reached 1.2 x 109 and 1.3 x 109 CFU/portion, respectively. After 108 days under these storage conditions, the survival rate of B. animalis subsp. lactis was 94.26% and 81.10% for G1 and G2 samples, respectively. After simulation of gastroenteric conditions, G2 group reached 9.72 x 105 CFU/portion. Considering the current requirements of Brazilian legislation, which stipulates that functional foods must have minimum probiotic count between 108 and 109 CFU/portion and detectable probiotic bacteria after being submitted to gastroenteric conditions, it is concluded that the ice cream with the addition of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis made as shown in this work, can be considered as a dairy functional food

The Brazilian caatinga is characterized by low annual rainfall and arid soils. Several cactaceae, either native or adapted species, grow in this semi-arid region, including the prickly pear (Opuntia fícus indica) and facheiro ((Philosocereus pachycladus Ritter) which produce underexploited edible fruits. In addition to these species, the algaroba is a leguminous with little studied technological applications and bioactive potential so far. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the physicochemical, bioactive and functional attributes of the prickly pear and facheiro fruit pulps and the algaroba flour. Specifically, this study approaches the physicochemical characterization, total phenolic compounds (TPC) and the betalain identification and quantification by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS. It is also investigated the DPPH antioxidant capacity and the antienzymatic activities against alpha-amylase and alphaglucosidase of water and ethanolic extracts of these food material. In order to address their potential to be used as food ingredients, juice blends prepared with mixtures of cajá and prickly pear, biofilms with facheiro and cereal bars with algaroba flour were elaborated and analyzed. The prickly pear fruits presented low acidity and high sugar content when compared to facheiro. The Philosocereus pachycladus Ritter fruits had higher protein and ash content, but the algaroba flour was the species with higher protein and sugar content among all. The algaroba flour also presented outstanding food fiber content, which reveals its potentiality to be used as a natural intestinal regulator. The TPC of water and ethanol extracts ranged from 3.87 to 16.21 mg GAE/100g for algaroba flour, 79.24 to 110.20 GAE/ 100g for prickly pear and 412.23 to 539.14 mg GAE/100g for facheiro. The 70% (w/v) ethanol extract reached the highest DPPH antioxidant activity, which was linearly correlated to its high TPC content. In regard to the enzymatic inhibitory activities, the best performance was observed for the prickly pear extracts which presented a moderate inhibition for both investigated enzymes, but interestingly, no alpha-glucosidase inhibition was observed for facheiro extracts. This work shows, for the first time in the literature, the functional attributes of facheiro fruits, as well as the presence of betacianins and isobetanin in the pulp of this exotic fruit. When it comes to the food products developed here, the sensory attributes that better described the juice blend cajá-prickly pear were sweetness, acidity, color yellow-orange, body, turbidity and cajá flavor. The discriminative test applied for cereal bars produced with and without algaroba revealed that the texture was the only sensory attribute that differed (p<0.05) between these two samples. It was also observed that the addition of facheiro extracts did not influence the visual characteristics of the biofilms. Overall, this work unveils the physicochemical and bioactive attributes of these commercial and technologically underexploited species widely found in the Brazilian caatinga and presents alternatives for their rational use

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo desenvolver alguns produtos, como paleta e copa defumadas, em escala de laboratório, com a carne de capivara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), e empregar a técnica de maturação da carne por meio da utilização de cloreto de cálcio. Inicialmente procedeu-se a verificação da composição centesimal na carne in natura, e posteriormente realizou-se a avaliação sensorial e a determinação da composição centesimal dos produtos obtidos pelos seguintes tratamentos: Tratamento A - paleta defumada, submetida à maturação inicial com cloreto de cálcio; Tratamento B - paleta defumada sem a maturação inicial; Tratamento C - copa defumada, submetida à maturação inicial com cloreto de cálcio e; Tratamento D - copa defumada sem a maturação inicial. A carne in natura de capivara apresentou composição média de 76,59% de umidade, 0,90% de resíduo mineral fixo, 20,04% de proteína e 0,91% de extrato etéreo. Os produtos elaborados apresentaram, em média: 67,72% de umidade, 2,16% de resíduo mineral fixo, 24,93% de proteína e 2,77% de extrato etéreo. Os produtos defumados de carne de capivara não apresentam diferenças quanto ao aroma, sabor, aroma estranho e sabor estranho. A paleta defumada apresenta-se mais macia e suculenta do que a copa defumada. A utilização de cloreto de cálcio cinco horas após o abate não tem efeitos significativos nos atributos sensoriais.

A desidratação osmótica (DO) de fatias de carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) em solução de sacarose foi estudada, com o objetivo de otimizar o processo. Num primeiro conjunto de experimentos, aplicou-se revestimento de coberturas comestíveis (pectina ou pectina+amido) sobre as fatias, seguido de do em solução aquosa de sacarose (50%, p/p, 27°C). Num segundo conjunto, foi realizada secagem parcial da cobertura, em estufa, antes da DO. Num terceiro conjunto de experimentos testou-se a adição de CaCl2 na solução osmótica. A aplicação dos revestimentos antes da do não melhorou a eficiência (máxima perda água/ganho soluto) devido à grande retenção de umidade e à fácil impregnação de sacarose nos mesmos, enquanto que o tecido vegetal sem revestimento restringiu mais o ganho de soluto e propiciou maior saída de água. A utilização de CaCl2 a 0,04M, na própria solução osmótica de sacarose, melhorou ligeiramente a eficiência do processo, em relação à solução sem o sal. A do em solução de sacarose, sem e com a adição de CaCl2, geraram resultados positivos na qualidade sensorial da carambola em fatias, desidratadas em secador (60 e 70°C), em comparação com a fruta não tratada, sendo que a melhor temperatura de secagem foi 60°C.
