The aim of this work was to correlate macronutrient content of soybean seeds to physiological quality of different cultivars. The work was developed in the Federal University of Pelotas, in the facilities of the Seed Science and Technology Graduate Program. The experimental design was randomized blocks in arranged in four replicates. The following soybean cultivars were used: BMX Apolo RR (12 lots), BMX Ativa RR (13 lots), BMX Energia RR (26 lots), BMX Força RR (24 lots), BMX Impacto RR (35 lots), BMX Magna RR (16 lots), BMX Turbo RR (44 lots), BMX Potência RR (82 lots) and NA 5909 RR (28 lots), with seeds produced in northwest Rio Grande do Sul. The determination of nutritional contents found in plant tissues of soybean seeds, were measured: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Sulfur (S). The macronutrient contents of the seeds vary according to genetic characteristics of the cultivars, with higher oscillations of nitrogen, phosphorus, magnesium and sulfur contents present in soybean seeds. Potassium and calcium are defined as the most stable nutrients for the cultivars and seed lots analyzed. High concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium are determinants for the physiological quality of soybean seeds.

Fresh paste from horse mackerel ( T. murphyi) surimi-type, was processed during setting using (2%) KCI. The paste was subjected to different heating and cooling cycles. The salt produced an improve ment in kamaboko-type gel formation. The heating and cooling cycles enhanced the setting process and improved textural quality of the resulting gel, mainly when the heating before cooling was slow. The setting process was characterized by several physical parameters: storage module ( G'), using an oscillatory rheological technique, and apparent Young module ( E), by means of mechanical compres sion tests. The enthalpic changes for gelification of the paste were determined using differential scan ning calorimetry.

Abstract Different test cells (a Warner-Bratzler type blade, compression cell and a modified Kramer shear-compression cell) were compared to obtain an objective method for texture measurement of whole and chopped peanuts. The modified Kramer shear-compression cell was found to be the most sensitive in measuring textural characteristics of whole peanuts. Objective parameters, force and energy, correlated well with subjective parameters resulting from sensory evaluation, crispness and crunchiness (r2 = 0.77 and 0.79), respectively. The coefficients of determination (r2) between whole and chopped peanuts for force and energy were 0.81 and 0.72, respectively; which suggested that the modified Kramer shear-compression cell can be used to evaluate the textural quality of chopped peanuts.

The effect of bovine plasma protein (BPP) on the inhibition of autolytic activity and its effect on the gelling properties of a protein concentrate (PC) obtained from jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) mantle were investigated. Sols and gels were prepared from the PC by adding different amounts of BPP (0, 1, and 2%). Dynamic oscillatory measurements indicated that systems with 1% BPP had a higher elastic modulus (G′), in which hydrophobic interactions were favored. Concerning the technological and textural quality of the gels, BPP caused a greater water holding capacity (WHC), force, cohesiveness, and elasticity, probably due to improvement of the electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions during gel formation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) allowed visualization of the formation of more rigid and ordered gels with less porosity when BPP was added. Therefore, the addition of BPP improved the gelling capacity of proteins extracted from giant squid.
