Avaliação do efeito da combinação de pectina, gelatina e alginato de sódio sobre as características de gel de fruta estruturada a partir de "mix" de polpa de cajá e mamão, por meio da metodologia de superfície de resposta
(Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, 2011) CARVALHO, Ana Vânia; MATTIETTO, Rafaella de Andrade; ASSIS, Glaucy Takeda; LOURENÇO, Lúcia de Fátima Henriques
The objective of this work was to establish a technological procedure for producing a structured fruit product from yellow mobin and papaya purees, as an attempt to combine the sensory properties of both fruits and potentialize the functional properties of the final product. The effect of different combinations of pectin, gelatin and sodium alginate on the fruit gel properties was evaluated by response surface methodology. Papaya and yellow mobin purees and the structured products were characterized in terms of functional compounds (total tannin and carotenoid contents), as well as centesimal composition, pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids, sugars, water activity, carbohydrates and total energetic value. The results obtained from the experimental design indicated that only the gelatin concentration affected the product firmness. The developed fruit structured products presented good acceptance for all evaluated attributes. The data concerning purchase intent indicated that 70% of the panelists would probably or certainly purchase the mixed yellow mobin and papaya structured product if they found it for sale.

Características físicas e químicas de frutos de pupunheira no Estado do Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-09) CARVALHO, Ana Vânia; BECKMAN, Jacqueline Chaves; MACIEL, Renan de Almeida; FARIAS NETO, João Tomé de
The aim of this study was to assess the physical and physical-chemical characteristics of the fruits of 21 reproductive peach palms to help guide future research on genetic improvements of the species, especially regarding the fruit pulp. Fruits from each genetic material were characterized by fruit and seed size, moisture, protein, lipid, ash, fiber and total carotenoids. Average values for all studied variables were significantly different among all individuals. Protein values ranged from 4.20 to 6.79%, especially for B04-P20 that showed the highest value. Lipid levels varied markedly, with values ranging between 8.25 and 40.83%, and matrix B02-P30 presenting the greatest levels of lipids. Total carotenoids ranged from 8.02 to 124.90 mg/g, with matrices B02-P30 (124.90µg/g) and B05-P45 (123.04µg/g) presenting the highest values. The high total carotenoid values observed indicates that peach palms could make a significant contribution to antioxidants in the diet. Overall, the physical and physical-chemical assessment revealed significant differences among the studied reproductive individuals for the characters studied, indicating that this species offers considerable promise for future research on genetic improvements.

Optimization of parameters technological to process tucupi and study of product stability
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-06) CAMPOS, Ana Paula Rocha; MATTIETTO, Rafaella de Andrade; CARVALHO, Ana Vânia
Tucupi is a product obtained from the fermentation and cooking of cassava root wastewater which is widely used in the popular cuisine of the North region of Brazil. This study employed an experimental design to select tucupi processing (fermentation and cooking times) as a function of residual cyanidric acid content and assess the stability of the product obtained. Although the design did not generate a predictive mathematical model, the trend plots and physicochemical and sensory tests indicated 24 h of fermentation and 40 min of cooking as process parameters. The tucupi prepared had pH 3.71, titratable acidity of 0.7 g lactic acid/100 mL, 93.91% moisture, 0.5% ashes, 0.52% proteins, 0.24% lipids, 4.83% carbohydrates, total and free cyanide of 6.97 and 1.31 mg HCN/L, respectively. No Salmonella spp., coagulase-positive Staphylococcus, Bacillus cereus , or thermotolerant coliforms were observed, whereas counts of mesophilic aerobic bacteria (1.3x102 CFU/g) and molds and yeasts (1.3x102 CFU/g) were low. Over 50 days of follow-up (stored at 10°C), the microbial load remained stable and no significant difference was found in physicochemical characteristics, however, the sensory analysis indicated a decrease in quality at 49 days of storage.

Qualidade pós-colheita de cultivares de bananeira do grupo 'maçã', na região de Belém - PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-12) CARVALHO, Ana Vânia; SECCADIO, Lara Lima; OLIVEIRA JÚNIOR, Moisés Cordeiro Mourão de; NASCIMENTO, Walnice Maria Oliveira do
The present study aimed to characterize the physical and physical-chemical properties and perform sensory evaluation of ripe fruits of three banana cultivars of the subgroup 'Maçã ' at different stages of maturation. Bunches of Caipira, Thap Maeo, and BRS Tropical cultivars were harvested at stage 2 of color peel (green-mature) and stored at room temperature. They were evaluated at color peel stages 2, 3, 5, 7 with respect to length and diameter of the fruits. The following properties of the pulp were investigated: firmness, pH, soluble solids, titratable acidity and sugar concentration (reduced, not reduced and total). Fully ripe fruits were also analyzed regarding the sensory acceptance through the attributes aroma, pulp color, texture, and flavor of fruit. As the ripening progressed, acidity, soluble solids and sugars increased, factors responsible for the fruit flavor, as well as the decrease in fruit firmness and the pH reduction were observed for all cultivars. With respect to sensory analysis, the Tropical and Thap Maeo cultivars presented the highest average scores for all sensory attributes evaluated.
