Abstract BACKGROUND Marolo ( Annona crassiflora Mart) is a typical savannah fruit that very nutritious and highly appreciated. However, its consumption has been limited to fresh fruit. The objective of this study was evaluate the potential use marolo flour in production healthy snack bars valorise provide an alternative ready‐to‐eat product. Snack containing increasing amounts (5 g 100 −1 , 10 15 20 expressed w/w) were produced physico‐chemical sensory characteristics determined . RESULTS...
The objective of this work was to characterize fruits from the Brazilian savanna by means physical and chemical analyses. results obtained for araça peel, pulp marolo pulp, respectively, were: moisture (77.03, 80.41 70.56 g.100 g-1), ash (0.65, 0.44 0.54 protein (1.39, 1.87 1.99 lipids (0.32, 0.33 2.36 total carbohydrates (90.88 , 78.25 24.55 soluble sugars (8.45, 9.99 127.4 pH (3.76, 3.99 4.49), solids (11° Brix, 8.8 °Brix 21.4 °Brix) antioxidant potential (16.33, 12.75 34.29 discoloration...
The objective of this work was to characterize promising fruit crops and explore opportunities for the sustainable commercial use flours obtained from fruits as an ingredient in snack bars. selected Jeriva, which grow north eastern Brazil, can be found Savanna biome. flour dehydrated pulps proximate composition, dietary fiber, vitamin C, % scavenging free radicals, mineral pH, ºBrix, titratable acidity sensory analysis were determined. incorporated into formulation by partial substitution...
The processing of fruits and vegetables in general generates a significant amount waste, which is often discarded the environment, losing potential for using it obtaining and/or developing other value-added products. Within this theme, some waste arising from Amazonian oilseeds, such as açaí andiroba, deserves attention due to large volume generated these species. development new ways raw materials obtain products with high added value becomes challenge, can directly impact preservation...
O novo hábito de aquisição dos consumidores, na busca por alimentos com alto valor nutricional e não sintéticos, tem levado às indústrias a uma incessante pelo desenvolvimento novos produtos. Este trabalho teve o objetivo elaborar avaliar bolinhos utilizando diferentes concentrações da farinha açaí que podem trazer benefícios à saúde. Quatro tipo formulações foram elaboradas: A1 (com substituição 5% pela açaí), A2 (substituindo 10% A3 15% A4 20% além do controle (A0 – sem açaí). As análises...
Pumpkin seeds are considered waste and its composition has high protein content, being feasible for human consumption, also reducing costs in treatment. In this work we provided an alternative to reuse the wastes of pumpkin seed applied cupcakes formulation as a complementary source wheat flour. Four formulations with different proportions flour were investigated. The effects partial substitution evaluated using parameters texture, height, diameter, specific volume, color, proximate scanning...
A challenge to the food sector has been development of new products incorporating co-products from processing industry with minimal impact on their pre-determined structures and adding nutritional quality. In order add value develop alternatives for use generated during agroindustrial processing, this work aimed study stability gluten-free sweet biscuits developed soybean okara, rice bran broken rice. The formulations were elaborated increasing percentages these ingredients compared standard...
Maroleiro (Annona crassiflora Mart), belonging to the family of Annonaceae is a typical specie Cerrado and has occurred in most states. For fruit characteristics "sui generis", with significant nutritional value. This study aimed characterize marolo (Anonna crasiflora Mart) during development, through evaluation its proximal mineral composition. The fruits 2012/2013 season, were picked 12Km from city Itumirim, southern Minas Gerais, intervals 20 days anthesis maturity, first harvested 60...
O objetivo deste trabalho foi caracterizar a gabiroba (Campomanesia pubescens) ao longo do seu desenvolvimento por meio de análises físicas, químicas e fisiológicas. Os frutos foram coletados 8 km Lavras, sul Minas Gerais, em intervalos 5 dias, partir da antese até sua maturação completa. A floração iniciou-se no mês agosto o ápice evento setembro; frutificação inicial ocorreu setembro, sendo outubro período ideal para coleta. compreendido entre abertura flor (antese) amadurecimento 63 dias...
O aproveitamento de coprodutos gerados durante o processamento frutas faz-se necessario, uma vez que, por meio deste, pode-se desenvolver/encontrar a forma ideal aproveitamento, reduzindo impacto ambiental e agregando valor nutritivo preparacoes convencionais. Este trabalho teve objetivo desenvolver avaliar aceitabilidade, caracteristicas fisico-quimicas microbiologicas geleia mista casca abacaxi polpa pessego aromatizada com canela. As seguintes analises foram realizadas: pH, acidez,...
The present study aimed to develop extruded corn breakfast cereal enriched with whole peach palm flour. A 22 central composite rotatable design was used, and the processed in a ZKS-30 co-rotational twin-screw extruder (Werner Pfleiderer), followed by its physicochemical, technological microbiological characterization. analysis revealed higher expansion lower hardness as well adequate lightness water-absorption water-solubility indices of at low moisture intermediate flour contents. Moreover,...
The objectives of this study was the physical, chemical, and physiological characterization marolo (Annona crassiflora, Mart.) during its development. fruits were harvested 12 Km off Itumirim, Southern Minas Gerais, Brazil, at 20-d intervals from anthesis to fruit maturity. first within 60 days. total development took 140 days starting anthesis. At after anthesis, reached maximum size, with mass 1.380g, transverse diameter 13.0 cm, longitudinal 11.5 cm. During development, showed increase in...
