This work consists of studying the influence of the desamerization of the mesocarpe on the chemical composition and the sensorial quality of the jam, based on the bitter orange. The results of the various analysis show that desamerization decreases acidity, sugars, protein, and bioactive compound levels (carotenoids, polyphenols, and vitamin C), but desamerized jams still remain an important source of antioxidant compounds with antioxidant potential in the diet. Concerning the sensory analysis of the jams, the results show that the jam desamerized with water presents the same bitterness as the bitter jam and that the salt significantly reduces the bitterness of the jams.

ABSTRACT Specialty coffees can be differentiated in various ways, including the environmental conditions in which they are produced and the sensory composition of the drink. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of altitude, slope exposure and fruit color on the sensory attributes of cafes of the region of Matas de Minas. Sampling points were georeferenced in four altitude ranges (< 700 m; 700 ≤ x ≤ 825 m, 825 < x < 950 m and ≥ 950 m) of the coffee crop; two fruit colors of var. Catuaí (yellow and red); and two slope exposures (North-facing and South-facing). Coffee fruit at the cherry stage were processed and submitted to sensory analysis. The sensory attributes evaluated were overall perception, clean cup, balance, aftertaste, sweetness, acidity, body and flavor, which made up the final score. The scores were examined by ANOVA and means were compared by the Tukey test (p ≤ 0.05). From the sensory standpoint, coffee fruits of both colors are similar, as well as the coffees from both slope exposures when these factors were analyzed separately. However, at higher altitudes, Yellow Catuaí produces coffees with better sensory quality. Similarly, coffees from North-facing slopes, at higher altitudes produce better quality cup. The altitude is the main factor that interferes with coffee quality in the area. All factors together contribute to the final quality of the beverage produced in the region of Matas de Minas.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of model homogenized sterilized canned meat products produced with wheat fiber preparations (WF 200 R or WF 600 R) with different fiber lengths used in the amount of 3% or 6% by weight of the batter. Basic chemical composition (water, protein, fat, collagen and salt content), pH level, water activity, thermal drip, CIEL*a*b* color components, texture parameters (TPA, shear force) and sensory quality were determined. The addition of 3% or 6% of wheat fiber preparations did not affect the basic chemical composition, water activity and pH of products. The 6% addition of both fiber preparations caused lightening of the color of the meat blocks. Products with the addition of both wheat fiber preparations were characterized by significantly (p ≤ 0.05) higher hardness than the control product. Sensory quality of products, except tastiness, with the addition of wheat fiber preparations did not differ from the control product. There was no significant effect of wheat fiber length on the quality of meat blocks. Both lightening the color of canned meat blocks produced with the addition of wheat fiber preparation, as well as increasing their hardness, is desirable and contributes to increasing the quality of products.

Mango cv Kent, as grown on the Yucatan Peninsula, despite its satisfactory ripening, pleasant flavour, correct pulp colour and general acceptance, shows a skin without the characteristic red- yellow colour of the regular ripe fruit; it remains green and this makes it slightly unattractive to the consumer. On the other hand, ethylene and some other components such as Ethephon, have been used to homogenize the ripening in many fruits and to improve its colour. This work shows the results of the effect of nine different treatments with Ethephon on the colour, composition and quality of mango cv Kent. Fruit was treated by immersion in solutions of Ethephon at three different concentrations (500, 1500 and 2000 ppm) and for three different lengths of times (3, 6 and 9 min). The colour improvement depended upon the concentration and time of the treatment with Ethephon. In general, it was found that treatment with Ethephon had a significantly posi tive effect on the colour of the mango skin, as it caused the degradation of chlorophyll, which gave the appearance of the characteristic yellow and red colours to 100% of the fruit treated with 2500 ppm. Treatments influenced significantly the chemical composition of the pulp, particularly the concentration of total soluble solids, reducing sugars, carotenoids, vitamin C and acidity. The best sensorial acceptance was obtained from treatments with 1500 ppm.

Madidi was produced from different formulations of pearl millet ogi and bambara nut flours. Five madidi products were produced at the laboratory scale using 100:0 (control), 95:5, 90:10, 85:15 and 80:20 millet to bambara groundnut flours, respectively. Bambara ground nut were cleaned, sorted (to remove foreign materials), soaked in cold water for 2 hours, dried and toasted for 30 minutes by using oven. The five formulated products were subjected to proximate, minerals and sensory analysis. The results showed that the protein contents increased with increased addition of bambara groundnut flour. The protein contents ranged from 1.79 to 3.51% on dry weight basis. The fat contents ranged from 0.26 to 1.22%. Carbohydrate content decreased from 22.00 to 13.21% as the proportion of bambara flour increased. Magnesium and phosphorous increased significantly (p=0.05), however potassium and iron were not significant affected (p=0.05). The 100% millet (0.17 mg/100 g) was significantly high in magnesium (p=0.05) followed by 95% millet and 5% bambara nut (0.09 mg/100 g). The phosphorous composition increased with increase in bambara nut (0.17– 0.22 mg/100 g). The average scores of parameters for all the products are relatively high. Product 85:15 millet to bambara flour was most acceptable. It is concluded that an acceptable madidi can be produced from millet and bambara nut at 15% substitution level.
