Microalgae are a promising future food source with their rich nutrient content and potential to contribute to a carbonneutral economy. However, incorporating microalgae into food formulations presents sensory challenges, particularly in terms of colour and distinct {sh-like aromas. In the YUM ALGAE project, this study successfully evaluated the impact of microalgae incorporation in two distinct food matrices – ...
Pouco se conhece sobre os efeitos de herbicidas em fungos patogênicos habitantes do solo que infectam os feijoeiros. Foi avaliado o efeito de herbicidas no crescimento micelial de Fusarium solani f. sp. phaseoli, F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli, Macrophomina phaseolina, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium rolfsii e Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Esses fungos causam as doenças de solo mais danosas do feijão. Avaliou-se, em p...
Herbal infusions are receiving increasing attention for the number of physiological benefits that can bring to human health. Cymbopogon citratus is one the most used plants in traditionalmedicine besides its characteristics and unique aroma appreciated by the consumers; however, little is known about the effects of harvesting on functional and sensory properties of this plant. The present work aimed to assess t...
[Abstract]
The aim of the present work was to assess the impact of different vegetable diets in the sensory acceptability of Senegalese sole.
Flow injection analysis (FIA) methods for the spectrophotometric determination of CO2 and SO2 in wines are described. The determination of CO2 is based on the colour change of a low capacity buffer (containing an acid-base indicator) due to the dissolved carbon dioxide. The determination of SO2 is based on the decoloration of malachite green by sulphur dioxide. Two FIA manifolds are presented; one for the deter...
