The objective of this study was to investigate the kinetic stability lime essential oil emulsion using gum arabic (GA) and whey protein isolate (WPI) biopolymers as emulsifiers stabilizers. Different solid compositions were evaluated: GA, GA/WPI (1:1) WPI, well concentration (5.0, 7.5 10% w/w). Emulsions prepared an ultrasonic homogenizer. Viscosity, droplet size, zeta potential, pH conductivity measured predict over a period 4 h (estimated time until complete drying in microencapsulation...
For the preparation of nanoemulsions, correct choice emulsifiers, together with emulsification methods, directly influences final product quality. The present study reports ultrasound-assisted oil-in-water nanoemulsions produced mucilage extracted from leaves Pereskia aculeata Miller (ora-pro-nobis; OPN). OPN (%) and soybean oil concentration range, process operating parameters, ultrasonic power amplitude sonication time (min), were optimized based on mean droplet diameter (d32). effect...
ABSTRACT Whole strawberries were frozen after being impregnated with solutions of ora‐pro‐nóbis mucilage (MOPN) or pectin at concentrations 0%, 0.5%, and 1.0% (w/v), CaCl 2 0.5% sucrose 5.0% 10% (w/v). The vacuum for h a controlled pressure 64.3 kPa, the rheological behavior was evaluated before impregnation. In strawberries, texture cell fluid losses, total soluble solids, pH, titratable acidity, bioactive compounds analyzed processing. microstructures samples by low‐vacuum electron...
Abstract Ora‐pro‐nobis (OPN) is a plant with high protein content. The development of new adsorbents that enable the separation biomolecules while preserving their bioactivity has attracted interest researchers. This work reports functionalization cryogel via epoxy method and its application in adsorption OPN proteins through ion exchange, using amino acids. Among pH values types exchange ligands evaluated (cysteine, taurine, polyethyleneimine, glutamic acid), highest (54.44 mg g −1 ) was...
The growing consumer interest in healthier foods has driven the industry to develop products with lower sugar content without compromising their nutritional and sensory properties. In this context, aim of study was ora-pro-nóbis mango jellies reduced sugar, evaluating effects on physicochemical rheological Three formulations were prepared: traditional, light, diet, varying concentrations HMP LMP pectins. analyses included pH, titratable acidity, moisture, water activity, phenolic compounds,...
Ora-pro-nobis mucilage (MOPN) (Pereskia aculeata Miller) is rich in proteins and possesses emulsifying, thickening, gelling properties, capable of influencing the viscosity colloidal systems. Its use as an alternative to commercial pectin enhances local ingredients, such native plants, contributes diversification products food industry. The aim this study was evaluate potential MOPN a substitute for production jaboticaba jelly. For this, extracted from leaf extract by precipitation with...
Hydrocolloid powders from Pereskia aculeata Miller were obtained by using drying in a vacuum oven and freeze-drying at different concentrations (0.5–3.0 g of hydrocolloids/100 aqueous phase) to produce oil-in-water emulsions. The rheological characteristics the emulsions their microstructures determined. freeze-dried hydrocolloids higher hydrocolloid resulted with viscosities. method concentration influenced thixotropic behavior, resulting exhibited shear-thinning behavior. Microstructural...
The use of extracts rich in bioactive compounds is becoming increasingly common the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries for production functional products. Araticum a potential fruit to be analyzed due its content phenolic compounds, carotenoids vitamins, with antioxidant properties. Therefore, this study aimed investigate effect ultrasound on total carotenoids, ascorbic acid, color, turbidity rheology araticum juice. Response surface methodology based central composite design was...
