Consumers are increasingly looking for foods that have compounds that are beneficial to health, also called bioactive or photochemical, which are substances derived from the secondary metabolism of vegetables. Brazil has one of the greatest biodiversity in the world, with unexplored sources of native fruits with high levels of bioactive compounds. Among these fruits, the araçá (Psidium cattleianum Sabine) stand...

The packaging protects food from actions of external agents, from alterations and contaminations, in addition to adulteration. Edible films are structures produced from biopolymers, which can replace non-biodegradable packaging. These films have been formulated with naturally polymers of polysaccharides, lipids and proteins, isolated or combined with each other. Edible films produced with polysaccharides and pr...
The general objective of this research is to evaluate the “in vitro” efficacy of different concentrations of dehydrated garlic (Attack Plus®), for the control of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus teleogens. Dehydrated garlic (Attack Plus®) was tested “in vitro” using four groups of teleogens, in quadruplicate, containing the control group and groups containing dehydrated garlic concentrations equal to 0.1%, 0...
This study proposes a review of biological potential of cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) essential oil with a focus on microencapsulation as an alternative to control the occurrence of pests in stored maize grains. Due to the demands on corn productivity, there is the need to improve grain storage processes and conditions, since that in this stage there are quantitative and/or qualitative losses, mainly due to the ...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the synthesis of pectinase from Penicillium brasilianum in shake flasks and address their potential for industrial applications. A Plackett-Burman design followed by a complete second order design were used for the screening of most important factors and to maximize the polygalacturonase activity, respectively. Maximum polygalacturonase activity was 52.8 U mL-1 at 48 ...
