O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência do tipo de descasque, manual, mecânico e enzimático, e do armazenamento, a 5ºC e 10ºC e ambiente (21-23ºC), na vida útil de laranjas 'Pêra' do tipo Rio, minimamente processadas. As laranjas foram colhidas maduras, e imediatamente lavadas, higienizadas e descascadas. Após a eliminação da casca, as frutas foram desinfetadas e embaladas em bandejas de isopor revestidas com filme PVC esticável. Durante o armazenamento sob as diferentes temperaturas, avaliaram-se a aparência, a quantidade de suco drenado, o aparecimento de podridões, a perda de massa fresca, a intensidade respiratória, os conteúdos de O2 e CO2 no interior das embalagens, a coloração, os teores de ácido ascórbico (AA) e de sólidos solúveis totais (SST), e acidez titulável (AT), assim como a relação SST/AT. Foram realizadas avaliações microbiológicas, bem como testes de aceitabilidade e de preferência de compra pelo consumidor. Somente os produtos descascados enzimaticamente (DE) apresentaram perda de suco, que aumentou com o tempo e a temperatura de armazenamento. A perda de massa fresca ocorreu em todos os produtos, mas os DE e os armazenados a 21-23ºC apresentaram os maiores valores. Todas as laranjas processadas apresentaram pico respiratório na primeira hora após o descascamento, seguido de redução e estabilização. O descascamento enzimático e as menores temperaturas de armazenamento levaram aos teores mais elevados de O2 e aos mais baixos de CO2, nas embalagens. As frutas processadas apresentarem baixa contagem de microrganismos mesófilos, psicrófilos e coliformes totais, e ausência de coliformes fecais. Podridões apareceram nas descascadas manual (DM) e mecanicamente (DME) após 13 dias, 8 dias e 4 dias a 5ºC e 10ºC e ambiente (21-23ºC), respectivamente. Os produtos obtidos com descascamento manual (DM) não diferiram dos DME ou DE, quanto aos teores de AT, SST e AA e relação SST/AT. Os produtos DM e DME, armazenados a 5ºC, foram os preferidos pelos provadores e apresentaram boa aparência por 19 dias e bom sabor por 23 dias. Os DE e armazenados a 5ºC apresentaram boa aparência por 4 dias e sabor desagradável no 1º dia.

Data on flow properties of Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice (FCOJ) produced from oranges cv. Pera-Rio (65.04 Brix, 8.8% w/w pulp content, 2.5% w/w pectin, 3.84% citric acid, 1.293 g cm(-3)) from -18 to 0 degrees C were fitted with appropriate predictive models. The power law model was found to be the most appropriate to fit the flow curves obtained for FCOJ between 46.56 and 65.04 degrees Brix. In higher concentrations, thixotropy was observed and showed more temperature dependence. A single equation combining Arrhenius and exponential relationships was applied to describe the temperature effect and shear rate on the quantity of breakdown of FCOJ.

An efficient analytical method is described for the analysis of dicofol residues in pulp and orange peel. Samples are mixed with Celite and transferred to chromatographic columns prepacked with silica gel. Dicofol is eluted with ethyl acetate, and the extracts are analyzed by gas chromatography with electron capture detection. Mean recoveries for dicofol at levels of 0.5, 2.0, 5.0, and 10 mg/kg ranged from 87 to 95% with relative standard deviation values between 2.6 and 9.0%. To investigate the effect of a pilot washing system on dicofol residues in oranges, the analytical procedure was applied to samples submitted to different treatments with commercial formulations under field and laboratory conditions. The orange samples with and without washing were analyzed in duplicate, and the results indicated that washing under the described conditions did not allow a complete removal of dicofol residues from orange peel.

A simple and efficient method is described for the determination of fenpropathrin in oranges, pears, apples and strawberries. The procedure: is based on the extraction of each homogenized fruit sample with hexane:acetone (1:1, v/v) mixture, followed, by a cleanup technique on a column packed with florisil, using a hexane:ethyl ether (7:3, v/v) mixture, and gas chromatographic, analysis with electron capture detection (ECD). The fortification levels (0.5; 1.0; 2.0 mg kg(-1)) were selected according to the maximum residue limits (MRLs) established for fenpropathrin by Brazilian legislation. Mean recoveries from five replicates of fortified fruit samples ranged from 83 % to 98 %, with:coefficients of variation from 1.4 to 13.5 and detection limits varying from 0.1 to 0.2 mg kg(-1).

Xylella fastidiosa is a xylem-limited, Gram-negative bacterium responsible for citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) in sweet oranges. In the present study, we present the recombinant expression, purification and characterization of an X. fastidiosa cysteine protease (dubbed Xylellain). The recombinant Xylellain ((HIS)Xylellain) was able to hydrolyze carbobenzoxy-Phe-Arg-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin (Z-FR-MCA) and carbobenzoxy-Arg-Arg-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin (Z-RR-MCA) with similar catalytic efficiencies, suggesting that this enzyme presents substrate specificity requirements similar to cathepsin B. The immunization of mice with (HIS)Xylellain provided us with antibodies, which recognized a protein of c. 31 kDa in the X. fastidiosa pathogenic strains 9a5c, and X. fastidiosa isolated from coffee plants. However, these antibodies recognized no protein in the nonpathogenic X. fastidiosa J1a12, suggesting the absence or low expression of this protein in the strain. These findings enabled us to identify Xylellain as a putative target for combating CVC and other diseases caused by X. fastidiosa strains.

The consumer market demands food without pesticide residues. Therefore, this study focused on evaluating the control of green mold in Pera orange trees with biocontrol agents (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus subtilis (QST 713)), associated or not with heat treatment. The fruit was obtained in packinghouse before processing, being washed and disinfected with the use of Sodium Hypochlorite. Fruits submitted to these treatments were stored from 11 to 28 days at temperature of 10 °C and RH 90%±5 or for eight days at 20 °C and 90%±5. In general, the heat treatment reduced the disease severity determine by the area under the disease progress curve in the fruit and the incidence of natural postharvest disease in Pera oranges. On the other hand, biocontrol agents did not control the disease, showing that the organisms tested did not present curative activity against the green mold.
