A new enzymatic-colorimetric time-temperature integrator (ECTTI) to evaluate temperature abuse in refrigerated products was developed with Tributyrin, pH indicator, and lipase Calb. The kinetic behavior of the ECTTI (0.01 µL.L-1 enzyme) was assessed at 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25ºC, evaluating changes in pH (≤7.2) and color (ΔE ≥12). Storage at 5°C provided stability of the enzyme indicator for 16 days, and temperature abuses caused stability reduction to 15, 10, 0.5 0.3 days, with 10, 15, 20, and 25ºC of storage, respectively. The sequential abuse of temperature stability of ECTTI was assessed by exposure at 5.0ºC for 2 h and 25ºC for 1 or 5 min, returning to 5.0ºC for another 2 h, until the change in pH and color. The ECTTI subjected to temperature abuses for 5 and 1 min/25°C, remained stable for 5 and 9 cycles, respectively. The results of ECTTI stability before application, obtained with separate buffer/enzyme/water + substrate/indicator solutions, stored at 5 or 25ºC, before the reactive mixing of solutions, kept their stability, demonstrating the possibility of use as a tool against the temperature abuse conditions.

Unripe and ripe bilimbi (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) were ground and the extracted juices were partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation at the concentrations of 40 and 60% (w/v). The collected proteases were analysed for pH, temperature stability, storage stability, molecular weight distribution, protein concentration and protein content. Protein content of bilimbi fruit was 0.89 g. Protease activity of both the unripe and ripe fruit were optimum at pH 4 and 40°C when the juice were purified at 40 and 60% ammonium sulfate precipitation. A decreased in protease activity was observed during the seven days of storage at 4°C. Molecular weight distribution indicated that the proteases protein bands fall between IO to 220 kDa. Protein bands were observed at 25, 50 and 160 kDa in both the unripe and ripe bilimbi proteases purified with 40% ammonium sulfate, however, the bands were more intense in those from unripe bilimbi. No protein bands were seen in proteases purified with 60% ammonium sulfate. Protein concentration was higher for proteases extracted with 40% ammonium sulfate at both ripening stages. Thus, purification using 40% ammonium sulfate precipitation could be a successful method to partially purify proteases from bilimbi especially from the unripe stage.

The temperature factor is one of the limiting factors for obtaining high yields of crops, so one of the main tasks of selection is to search for temperature-resistant genotypes and to create on their basis the banks of crops with high temperature stability. The first step to solving this problem is to conduct a rapid assessment of the temperature plasticity of large populations and to isolate breeding-valuable genotypes from them. There are numerous methods that allow, in the short term with minimal technical and material costs, to carry out an initial assessment of a large number of genotypes at sporophytic level and differentiate them by resistance to the temperature factor. These methods include the method of estimating pollen populations. These studies have repeatedly been conducted on many cultures, their correctness is due to the expression of a large part of the plant genome, both at the diploid and haploid levels of development and demonstrated by many studies in this direction. The aim of our study was to study the stability of gametophyte and sporophyte of collecting varieties and varieties of winter rape to elevated temperatures, to study the correlation between the heat resistance of sporophyte and gametophyte.
