Análise bromatológica de carnes antes e após o processamento para obtenção de charque

The process of salting and drying in the sun is used to preserve meat since the beginning of civilization. There is evidence that this preservation technique has arisen in Egypt, between 4,000 and 5,000 years ago. In our country, according to literature, was the first industrial product that gave the appearance of beef jerky, beef being produced, where about 70% to 75% of the muscle is composed of water, where it will be around 45% as a final product, according to the law in his article RIISPOA No. 432 provides that the jerky should contain no more than this amount of moisture in the muscular portion, or more than 15% of total ash with tolerance of up to 5% variation . Besides this parameter, proteins, lipids, ash, and minerals were analyzed in samples before and after the manufacturing process to know the content of these nutrients. Since these are considered important in product quality, thus the concentration in these samples, respectively, in the flesh Front (CD and CHD) before and after the manufacturing process for humidity were respectively 75.28% and 47.38% , the protein was 14.17 and 22.20 g / 100 g sample, 6.360 and 4.251 of lipids g/100g of the sample, and the ashes 0.974 9.144 g/100g sample, minerals like calcium and 4.074 30 , 06 ppm, sódio0, 055 and 5.401 g / L, sodium chloride, 0.139 and 13.74 g / L, potassium 237.5 and 166.8 ppm, 1.721 and 3.295 ppm iron, 0.143 and 0.135 ppm phosphorus, zinc and 4.690 6.905 ppm; magnésio14, 63 e13, 75 ppm manganese .017 e0, 007ppm, copper 0.057 and 0.039 ppm in the case of needle-type meat (CPA and CHPA), 68.04% and 44.17%, protein 13 , 72, and 24.42 g/100g of sample, 1.137 in the ash and 12.68 g / 100g of sample, and the minerals calcium 17.11 and 12.89 ppm; sódio0, 123 and 4.871 g / L, sodium chloride 0.312 and 12.39 g / L, potassium 305.3 and 182.1 ppm; ferro1, 817 and 1.513 ppm, 0.273 and 0.139 ppm phosphorus, zinc 6.305 and 4.783 ppm, 27.95 and 15.85 ppm magnesium, manganese and 0.025 0.011 ppm, 0.057 and 0.143 ppm copper and chromium 0.014 and 0.068 ppm

Determinação de Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Sn e Zn em Tainha (Mugil brasiliensis) nos estuários potiguares

Heavy metals can cause problems of human poisoning by ingestion of contaminated food, and the environment, a negative impact on the aquatic fauna and flora. And for the presence of these metals have been used for aquatic animals biomonitoramento environment. This research was done in order to assess the environmental impact of industrial and domestic sewage dumped in estuaries potiguares, from measures of heavy metals in mullet. The methods used for these determinations are those in the literature for analysis of food and water. Collections were 20 samples of mullet in several municipality of the state of Rio Grande do Norte, from the estuaries potiguares. Were analyzed the content of humidity, ash and heavy metals. The data were subjected to two methods of exploratory analysis: analysis of the main components (PCA), which provided a multivariate interpretation, showing that the samples are grouped according to similarities in the levels of metals and analysis of hierarchical groupings (HCA), producing similar results. These tests have proved useful for the treatment of the data producing information that would hardly viewed directly in the matrix of data.

Espectrometria de emissão óptica com plasma indutivamente acoplado aliada à quimiometria na determinação de íons metálicos no molusco Mytella falcata para discriminação de estuários potiguares

This work examined the possibility of using mussel Mytella falcata as bioindicator sample to detect metal ions in several estuaries potiguares, since species substances that accumulate in their tissues due to its characteristics filter feeders have been used for environmental monitoring. The chemometrics by principal components analysis was used to reduce the size of the original data in order to establish a pattern of distribution of metal ion. Samples were collected at three different points in the estuaries Curimataú, Guaraíra-Papeba, Potengi, Galinhos-Guamaré and Piranhas-Assu having been marked with the location using GPS (Global Positioning System). The determination of humidity content and digestion of the samples were performed using methods described in the Compendium of analytical standards of the Institute Adofo Lutz (2005) and the determination of metal ions of the elements Al, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sn and Zn were performed by optical emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma as described by USEPA method 6010C. The results show that it is possible to use this molluscum Mytella falcata in the estuaries of Rio Grande do Norte for the determination of metal ions. The data were subjected to principal components analysis (PCA) which enabled us to verify the distribution pattern of the metal ions studied in several estuaries potiguares and group them according to the metal ions in common with and relate them to the activities in each region

Sucessão de culturas e sua influência nas propriedades físicas do solo e na produtividade do feijoeiro de inverno irrigado, em diferentes sistemas de manejo do solo

As propriedades físicas do solo podem ser alteradas mediante diferentes sistemas de manejo do solo e cultivo adotados. Assim, o presente trabalho foi desenvolvido em 2003/04, na região de Cerrado do Mato Grosso Sul, em Selvíria (MS), objetivando-se avaliar a produção de massa seca, porcentagem de recobrimento do solo e a influência de sucessões de culturas e sistemas de manejo nas propriedades físicas de um Latossolo Vermelho e na produtividade do feijoeiro de inverno irrigado. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos casualisados, em esquema de parcelas subdivididas, com quatro blocos. As parcelas foram constituídas pelos sistemas de manejo do solo - grade pesada, escarificador e plantio direto, e as subparcelas por seis sucessões implantadas no verão - milho, milho + mucuna-preta, milho + braquiária, soja, arroz e Crotalaria juncea. A cultura do feijão foi semeada após a colheita/manejo das plantas cultivadas no verão. C. juncea, milho + mucuna-preta, milho + braquiária e milho, independentemente do manejo do solo utilizado, constituem adequadas opções de sucessão de culturas, mediante alta produção de massa seca e recobrimento do solo. No plantio direto, comparado aos demais sistemas de manejo estudados, é causada compactação na camada superficial, mediante redução da macroporosidade. Com exceção da macroporosidade na camada mais superficial (0-0,1 m), as propriedades umidade, macroporosidade, microporosidade e porosidade total do solo não são influenciadas pelos sistemas de manejo do solo. Apesar de efeitos diferentes em alguns componentes de produção do feijoeiro devido a determinado manejo do solo ou sucessão de culturas, isso não repercute na produtividade do feijoeiro de inverno irrigado.

Reatividade de uma escória de siderurgia em um latossolo vermelho distrófico

O presente trabalho objetivou estudar a reatividade de uma escória de siderurgia de aciaria, em diferentes frações granulométricas, aplicada em uma amostra de um Latossolo Vermelho distrófico, ácido, em condições de laboratório. Utilizou-se um fatorial 4 x 3 + 2 com quatro repetições, sendo quatro granulometrias (material retido entre as peneiras ABNT 5-10; 10-20; 20-50 e < 50), três doses de escória, correspondentes a 0,00, 5,04 e 10,08 t ha-1, ou seja, 0,00, 1,01 e 2,02 g por copo com 0,40 dm³ de solo e duas testemunhas (escória e calcário dolomítico, na dose correspondente a V = 70 %, ou seja, 1,01 e 0,60 g por copo, respectivamente). Para definir as doses, adotou-se o método da saturação por bases, considerando-se o valor do PRNT da escória e do calcário, obtidos na granulometria correspondente. O solo foi mantido na capacidade de campo e incubado durante os períodos de três, seis e nove meses. As frações granulométricas da escória influiram diferentemente na acidez do solo. A fração retida entre as peneiras ABNT 5-10 mostrou-se ineficiente, enquanto a fração que passa pela peneira ABNT 50 foi a que conferiu o maior efeito na neutralização da acidez. A reatividade das partículas da escória retidas nas peneiras intermediárias, ABNT 10-20 e 20-50, foi proporcional aos valores vigentes na legislação brasileira para calcários. Portanto, a taxa de reatividade obtida para a escória foi de: ABNT nº 5-10 = 0 %; 10-20 = 22 %; 20-50 = 58 % e < 50 = 100 %.

Épocas de la aplicación de desecantes en el cultivo de la soja: tenor de agua y productividad

Los herbicidas glifosato y paraquat son utilizados por los productores de soja con el objetivo de desecar las plantas, anticipar y uniformizar la cosecha. Sin embargo, el uso indiscriminado de herbicidas puede causar problemas eventualmente en las características agronómicas y fisiológicas del cultivo. El presente trabajo tuvo por objetivo evaluar la utilización de los herbicidas glifosato y paraquat como desecantes para el cultivo de la soja. El experimento fue llevado a cabo en el año agrícola 2005/06, en un delineamiento experimental de bloques al azar, con cuatro repeticiones. Los tratamientos fueron dispuestos en dos esquemas factoriales, 3x3x5x2 y 3x2x5x2: dos desecantes (glifosato y paraquat) y un testigo (sin desecación), aplicación de los desecantes en tres y dos estadios fenológicos de las plantas (R6, R7 y R8) y (R7 y R8), para las variedades MSOY 6101 de ciclo superprecoz, y MG/BR 46 (Conquista) de ciclo precoz, respectivamente, cinco épocas de muestreo (2; 4; 6; 8 y 10 días después de la aplicación) y evaluación en dos posiciones en la planta (ápice y base). Fue evaluada la producción de semillas, masa y tenor de agua de 100 semillas. Los desecantes evaluados fueron eficientes en la reducción del tenor de agua de las semillas, sin afectar la productividad y la masa de 100 semillas.
