O presente estudo teve como objetivo caracterizar a diversidade de ácaros em cafeeiros da cultivar Mundo Novo duas importantes regiões produtoras (Jeriquara e Garça) do Estado São Paulo. Para tanto, foram coletadas amostras quinzenais folhas, ramos frutos, entre abril 2001 junho 2003, terço médio 10 plantas tomadas ao acaso cada campo. De planta 12 folhas (cada uma terceiro ou quarto par partir extremidade distal um ramo), (25 cm apicais) 100 frutos. Foram coletados no total 13.052 nos dois...
Light-based methods are being further developed to meet the growing demands for food in agricultural industry. Optical imaging is a rapid, non-destructive, and accurate technology that can produce consistent measurements of product quality compared conventional techniques. In this research, novel approach seed prediction presented. proposed two advanced optical techniques based on chlorophyll fluorescence chemometric-based multispectral were employed. The chemometrics encompassed principal...
Abstract Background The use of non-destructive methods with less human interference is great interest in agricultural industry and crop breeding. Modern imaging technologies enable the automatic visualization multi-parameter for characterization biological samples, reducing subjectivity optimizing analysis process. Furthermore, combination two or more techniques has contributed to discovering new physicochemical tools interpreting datasets real time. Results We present a method seed quality...
The application of artificial intelligence (AI) such as deep learning in the quality control grains has potential to assist analysts decision making and improving procedures. Advanced technologies based on X-ray imaging provide markedly easier ways insect infestation stored products, regardless whether features are visible surface grains. Here, we applied contrast enhancement algorithms peripheral equalization calcification emphasis images improve detection Sitophilus zeamais maize In...
Yeast recycling, which is a common practice in sugarcane ethanol plants, could be expanded if it successfully implemented corn-based production. However, the process of recycling yeast remaining after fermentation hampered by contaminating microorganisms that reduce efficiency and compete with for fermentable sugars. Currently, antibiotics are used to control microbial contamination. This study proposes chlorine dioxide electron beam irradiation as alternative methods completely inactivating...
Reducing spoilage and indicator bacteria is important for microbiological stability in meat products. The objective was to evaluate the effect of different doses gamma radiation on shelf-life lamb meat, vacuum-packed stored under refrigeration, by assessing safety, physicochemical sensory quality. Lamb loin cuts (Longissimus dorsi) were irradiated with 1.5kGy 3.0kGy. samples, including control, at 1±1°C during 56days. Samples analyzed zero, 14, 28, 42 56days their characteristics. Sensory...
High-gravity fermentation, used for ethanol production from sugarcane, corn, and mixed substrates, offers several benefits. Yeast, a rapidly multiplying unicellular microorganism, can be adapted high sugar tolerance on lab scale. However, different substrates enhance fermentation efficiency. Our study consisted of two experiments. In the first, we compared simple batch feeding with fed-batch system yeast selection in high-gravity fermentation. We ran eight cycles increasing initial contents...
The sanitary quality of seed is essential in agriculture. This because pathogenic fungi compromise physiological and prevent the formation plants field, which causes losses to farmers. Multispectral images technologies coupled with machine learning algorithms can optimize identification healthy peanut seeds, greatly improving quality. objective was verify whether multispectral artificial intelligence tools are effective for discriminating tropical seeds. For this purpose, dry seeds infected...
Mesmo o Brasil sendo maior produtor de feijão, é necessário importar para suprir a grande demanda interna, que agravada pelas grandes perdas por infestações durante armazenamento. Para combater estas processo irradiação dos feijões uma alternativa. Foram avaliadas as alterações ocorreram em grãos feijão preto crus e cozidos irradiados nas doses 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 10kGy quantidade ferro, taninos ácido fítico, digestibilidade da proteína disponibilidade ferro. teor ferro não houve variação (média...
Os morangos possuem curta vida útil pós-colheita devido à rápida deterioração causada por fungos, mesmo quando armazenados sob refrigeração. O presente trabalho teve objetivo avaliar as alterações físico-químicas em irradiados. Morangos (Fragaria anassa Duch.) da variedade Sweet Charles, colhidos na região de Valinhos-SP, foram irradiados um dia após a colheita fonte 60Co, nas doses 0,5; 1,0; 1,5 e 2,0 kGy controle, refrigeração (4 °C) 1, 8, 15, 22 29 dias. Para caracterização dos frutos foi...
Diesel adulteration not only reduces engine performance and lifespan but also has a stiffening effect on the economy. Therefore, regulatory agencies petroleum laboratories are constantly adopting various methods to ensure that commercial diesel is pure of good quality. Despite introduction solvent tracer analysis as reliable means detecting adulteration, most still depend physicochemical parameters an indicator adulteration. This research aimed document feasibility using quality detect Neat...
A pesquisa teve como objetivo verificar a viabilidade da radiação gama método de conservação do arroz polido (Oryza sativa L.). As amostras foram irradiadas com doses 0,5; 1,0; 3,0; e 5,0 kGy. Foram realizadas análises quebra grão no beneficiamento, longevidade reprodução Sitophilus oryzae L., composição centesimal, o conteúdo amilose aparente propriedades pasta dos amidos, para cor (instrumental) análise sensorial cru cozido. Foi utilizado teste Tukey (p < 0,05) diferença estatística entre...
