Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are a coproduct that causes environmental impacts worldwide. Thus, consciously reusing the SCG is an eminent need. This work aimed to encapsulate phenolic compounds and antioxidants obtained from extracts through spray- freeze-drying techniques using different isolated combined wall materials. The dried powders produced were evaluated for moisture content, water activity, bulk density, hygroscopicity, color, content of antioxidants, results compared. showed all...
Abstract BACKGROUND The chemical compounds in coffee are important indicators of quality. Its composition varies according to several factors related the planting and processing coffee. Thus, this study proposed use near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIR) associated with partial least squares (PLS) regression estimate quickly some properties (moisture content, soluble solids, total reducing sugars) intact green samples. For this, 250 samples produced Brazil were analyzed laboratory by standard...
Coffee is a raw material of global interest. Due to its relevance, this work evaluated the performance calibration models constructed from spectral data obtained using near-infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR) determine pH values and acidity in coffee beans practical non-destructive way. Partial least squares regression was used during cross-validation optimize number latent variables. The predictive capacity pre-processing methods also accessed.The results showed that best were first derivative...
Sucrose is the most commonly used solute in osmotic dehydration (OD) of fruits. However, there increasing interest replacing it with other alternative sugars. Polyols are carbohydrates low glycemic, insulinemic, and cariogenic indexes.
