Effect of whey protein purity and glycerol content upon physical properties of ...
Ramos, Óscar L.; Reinas, Isabel; Silva, Sara I.; Fernandes, João C.; Cerqueira, Miguel A.; Pereira, Ricardo N.; Vicente, António A.; Poças, M. FátimaThis manuscript describes the detailed characterization of edible films made from two different protein products e whey protein isolate (WPI) and whey protein concentrate (WPC), added with three levels of glycerol (Gly) e i.e. 40, 50 and 60%(w/w). The molecular structure, as well as barrier, tensile, thermal, surface and optical properties of said films were determined, in attempts to provide a better understan...

Quality changes in fresh-cut ‘Rocha’ pear as affected by oxygen levels in modif...
Gomes, M. Helena; Fundo, Joana F.; Poças, M. Fátima; Almeida, Domingos P. F.Respiratory behavior of fresh-cut ‘Rocha’ pear suggests that optimization of O2 concentration inside modified atmosphere packages (MAP) is of limited benefit. To test this hypothesis, packages were designed to achieve three equilibrium O2 partial pressures. Fresh-cut ‘Rocha’ pear was treated with 250 mM calcium ascorbate solutions buffered at pH 3.0 and pH 7.0, packaged under the three MAP conditions, and store...
Features and performance of edible films, obtained from whey protein isolate fo...
Ramos, Óscar L.; Silva, Sara I.; Soares, José C.; Fernandes, João C.; Poças, M. Fátima; Pintado, Manuela E.; Malcata, F. XavierThe goal of this research effort was to assess the efficacy of edible films produced fromwhey protein isolate (WPI) and glycerol, including incorporation of lactic acid (LA) and propionic acid (PRO), chitooligosaccharideswith nominal MW of 3 kDa (COS) and natamycin (NA) as antimicrobial agents. Their features were evaluated in vitro via agar diffusion and viable cell counting, against spoilage microflora often ...
