• Abstract

  Mango (Mangifera indica L) is a fruit very appreciated for its characteristics of flavor, aroma, color and nutritional composition, besides play an important role in the Brazilian economy. However, because it is a climacteric fruit the shelf life is very limited, both in ambient conditions (25°C) and under low temperatures (<13°C). In refrigerated conditions, the occurrence of the physiol…

• Abstract

  Brazil is the world's eighth largest mango producer. In 2009, Brazilian mango production was of 1.197.694 tones. Mango ranks in third place among Brazilian fruit exports and in 2010 mango exports reached 124.694 metric tons, a 13% increase in relation to the previous year. The income to the country was of US$ 119.929.762, in 2010. Although important to the country, mango exports represent…

• Abstract

  Açaí (Euterpe oleraceae Mart.) and juçara (Euterpe edulis Mart.) palms are native to Brazil and these species are rich in anthocynanins. The methods applied to determine anthocyanins are time-consuming, generate chemical residues, and do not fit in modern on-line grading machines. As near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been used as a nondestructive method to determine anthocyanin, the ob…

  The Master Science study of the student Thiago Feliph Silva Fernandes at the Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Faculdade de Ciências Agrárias e Veterinárias(FCAV), Jaboticabal Campus, was related to the development of classification models for seed and seedlings (leaves) of five papaya cultivars according to the sexual type using near infrared spectroscopy (NIR). When seeds were use…

• Abstract

  Mangoes and avocados are broadly produced in Brazil and even been classified as tropical/subtropical fruit, they are susceptible to physiological disorders and sunscald caused by the exposition to solar radiation is one of the problems that can affect fruit quality. Sunscald is commonly controlled via spraying the fruit with calcium hydroxide, however this practice is not always efficient…

• Abstract

  Functional beverages are one of the fastest growing segments in food processing industry due to consumer interest in foods with energy enhancing, anti-ageing, relaxing and general well-being properties. Green tea (Cameilla sinesis L. Kuntze) is a non-fermented tea that contains several polyphenol compounds, mainly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), and can be added into fruit juices to prod…

• Abstract

  The near infrared spectroscopy (NIR) jointly with chemometrics can be employed among other techniques to improve the processes of sorting and classification of açaí and juçara fruits, consequently the quality of the end produce (pulp and/or beverage) of the industries which exploit these fruits. Among the various advantages of the spectroscopy NIR technique stands out its rapidity, the no…
