EFFECT OF A RECYCLABLE FILM ON THE COLOR AND SENSORY EVALUATION OF FROZEN ‘BLAC...
Rouxinol, Maria Inês; Galveias, Ana; Soares, Patrícia; Agulheiro-Santos, Ana Cristina; Potes, Maria Eduarda; Laranjo, Marta; Ricardo-Rodrigues, Sara'Black pig' (AlentejanoxDuroc) meat products, valued for their sensory qualities and high nutritional value1, are popular in southern Europe2. These crossbreeds produce meat rich in oleic acid and lower in saturated fats. With environmental concerns rising, biodegradable and recyclable packaging is being explored3,4. This study found that recyclable packaging effectively maintains the quality of frozen 'secreto...
The effect of glazing on texture and sensory properties of Alentejano pig meat
Galveias, Ana; Rouxinol, Maria Inês; Soares, Patrícia; Agulheiro-Santos, Ana Cristina; Potes, Maria Eduarda; Laranjo, Marta; Elias, MiguelThe Glazing process is usual in sea food preservation and remarkably slows the occurrence of rancid by oxidation, due to the weak solubility of oxygen in ice, decreasing the occurrence of protein denaturation (Zoldos et al., 2011). Besides, water losses decrease, influencing texture and sensory characteristics. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of glazing meat from “Alentejano” (a Portuguese breed) ...

Galveias, Ana; Rouxinol, Maria Inês; Ricardo-Rodrigues, Sara; Laranjo, Marta; Agulheiro-Santos, Ana Cristina; Potes, Maria Eduarda; Soares, Patríciavolatile under normal conditions. Many of the EO can be used for food products preservation in a safe, environmentally friendly and convenient way that satisfies today's consumer preferences. It is known that the most significant causes of meat spoilage are oxidative processes and the action of spoilage microrganisms. EO exhibit antibacterial and antifungal activity and so are effective against foodborne bacter...
Antioxidant activity of clove and thyme essential oils over time
Rouxinol, Maria Inês; Galveias, Ana; Ricardo-Rodrigues, Sara; Laranjo, Marta; Soares, Patrícia; Potes, Maria Eduarda; Agulheiro-Santos, Ana CristinaEssential oils (EO) have been applied in food industry due to their many beneficial properties. EO have been shown to have useful properties for the food industry, including their antimicrobial activity and their eco-friendly origin [1]. In this work, the evolution of the antioxidant ability of clove and thyme EO was studied for one year, to understand the stability of different formulations under specific cond...

Galveias, Ana; Rouxinol, Maria Inês; Soares, Patrícia; Agulheiro-Santos, Ana Cristina; Potes, Maria Eduarda; Laranjo, Marta; Elias, MiguelThe use of packaging is beneficial for food preservation, reducing the influence of external factors, such as physical, chemical and even microbiological factors that are responsible for food quality, safety, and hygiene (Daniloski et al., 2019). In recent years, the use of biodegradable films and packages have been investigated due to their non-toxic, biodegradable and environmentally friendly properties. They...
