The objective of this work was the sensorial evaluation of mapará meat, in natura and without osmotic pre-treatment before drying. For the acceptability test of the mapará fish muscle bisquit, the in natura fish samples were used and dried under optimum osmotic dehydration conditions, in solutions of NaCl, NaCl + sucrose and in solution of NaCl + corn syrup solution before drying. 25 not trained testers were used, of both sex, ages ranging from 20 to 60 years. The evaluated sensorial attributes of the samples were appearance, aroma, flavor, texture and overall impression. The aroma and texture of the samples with and without osmotic pre-treatment were the ones most widely accepted by the consumers. It is concluded that the samples treated with osmotic solutions, with the exception of those processed with NaCl + corn syrup solution, provided products with better texture, flavor and a more pleasant aroma.

Otimização da desidratação osmótica de filés de mapará (Hypophthalmus edentatus) através da metodologia de superfície de resposta

Osmotic dehydration of mapará fillets has been used as a pre-treatment before dehydration and refrigeration of food as a means of reducing product moisture content. The aim of this study was to optimize mass transfer occurring during osmotic dehydration of mapará using the response surface methodology. Osmotic dehydration was carried out following a 23 complete factorial design, with eight factorial, three central and six axial points, totalizing 17 assays, where the values of the dependent variables, weight loss (PP), water loss (PA), solid gain (GS), GS/PA and tiobarbituric acid (TBA), are a function of the independent variables, temperature, concentration of NaCl and immersion time. The statistic analysis, applied to the experimental data was carried out using the pure error and the residual SS. Applying the response surface methodology, the best condition of convergence of lower weight loss, greater water loss and lower salt gain corresponded to a sodium chloride concentration of 22%, temperature of 46 °C and time of 7 hours.

Production of medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate by Pseudomonas oleovorans grown in sugary cassava extract supplemented with andiroba oil
(2014-12) SILVA, Diego Aires da; ANTONIO, Regina Vasconcellos; ROSSI, José Márcio; PENA, Rosinelson da Silva
Pseudomonas oleovorans were grown on sugary cassava extracts supplemented with andiroba oil for the synthesis of a mediumchain- length polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHAMCL). The concentration of total sugars in the extract was approximately: 40 g/L in culture 1, 15 g/L in cultures 2 and 3, and 10 g/L in culture 4. Supplementation with 1% andiroba oil and 0.2 g/L of (NH4)2HPO4 was performed 6.5 hours after growth in culture 3, and supplementation with the same amount of andiroba oil and 2.4 g/L of (NH4)2HPO4 was performed at the beginning of growth in culture 4. The synthesis resulted mainly in 3-hydroxy-decanoate and 3-hydroxy-dodecanoate units; 3-hydroxy-butyrate, 3-hydroxy-hexanoate; and 3-hydroxy-octanoate monomers were also produced but in smaller proportions. P. oleovorans significantly accumulated PHAMCL in the deceleration phase of growth with an oxygen limitation but with sufficient nitrogen concentration to maintain cell growth. The sugary cassava extract supplemented with andiroba oil proved to be a potential substrate for PHAMCL production.
