Developing biodegradable menstrual products using co-stream proteins as a material alternative to fossil counterparts presents significant environmental advantage across their entire value chain. The intrinsic properties of wheat gluten...
Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan with worldwide distribution, in warm-blood animals, including humans. Local conditions and environmental disturbances may influence transmission dynamics of zoonotic agent. This study evaluates the epidemiology T. based on toxoplasmosis prevalence two populations cats living distinct urbanization Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Among 372 domestic sampled, 265 were from public shelter located downtown 107 relatively preserved wild environment residential area. Sera...
Protein-based foams are potential sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based polymer in e.g. single-use products. In this work, the biodegradation, bioassimilation, and recycling properties of glycerol-plasticized wheat gluten (using a foaming agent gallic acid, citric or genipin) were determined. The degradation was investigated at different pH levels soil high humidity. fastest occurred an aqueous alkaline condition with complete within 5 weeks. exhibited excellent comparable better than...
In most cases, final agricultural products such as vegetables, fruits, and cereals are associated with the industrial generation of byproducts that usually unexploited to express all their potential value or, in worst but common case, directly disposed wastes. Even after processing, plant biomasses still represent an invaluable source unique human-useful compounds. Within circular economy, valorization wasted is considered opportunity provide new higher-value a concomitant solution waste...
Functional properties of substances present in natura foods such as fruits and vegetables are well documented; however, the activity that remains after processing needs more research. The study aimed to evaluate antioxidant potential fruit processed sauce quantify compounds able contribute activity. Three different treatments were developed varying only concentration pepper Capsicum frutescens L., with treatment ratios (fruit: water: vinegar: salt) being: 1 (0.5: 1: 0.5: 0.33), 2 (1: 3 (2:...
A kind of the consumption forms drinks presentation that has grown and appreciated for most people is nectar. The papaya nectar had recognized as a differentiated form this fruit, where industry also gains in time conservation, since an extremely perishable fruit. aim study was to evaluate gamma radiation way conserving Papaya developed subjected at dose 1kGy tax 0.356 kGy.hour-1 compared treatment with control (0kGy). According results obtained, can be concluded used adequate conservation...
