Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi produzir linguiça tipo Calabresa em escala industrial, incorporando nisina e misturas de ácidos orgânicos e seus sais como conservantes. Adicionalmente, avaliar a estabilidade do produto durante o armazenamento a 25 °C. Várias formulações foram investigadas, cada uma apresentando combinações conservantes distintas: Tratamento 1 (T1) incluiu lactato de sódio e acetato de sódio; o tratamento 2 (T2) continha lactato de sódio, acetato de sódio, ácido cítrico e nisina; o tratamento 3 (T3) envolveu uma combinação de sal e nisina juntamente com lactato de sódio, e um grupo controle utilizando lactato de sódio. Os valores de umidade variaram de 55,84% a 57,45%, proteínas de 18,53 a 19,07, e lipídios de 17,04% a 19,15%, todos de acordo com a legislação brasileira. O pH se manteve estável até 90 dias de armazenamento, apresentando valores de 6,30; 6,28; 6,05, e 6,23 para T1, T2, T3 e controle, respectivamente. O T2 apresentou maior acidez em relação às demais formulações devido à presença do ácido cítrico. Os conservantes avaliados (T1, T2 e T3) apresentaram menores índices de oxidação lipídica e inibiram o crescimento microbiano. Portanto, os conservantes avaliados têm potencial para serem utilizados industrialmente desde que mantenham as características do produto e garantam 120 dias de estocagem a 25 °C. industrial Adicionalmente C °C investigadas distintas T1 T (T1 (T2 (T3 5584 55 84 55,84 5745 57 45 57,45% 1853 18 53 18,5 1907 19 07 19,07 1704 17 04 17,04 1915 15 19,15% brasileira 9 6,30 630 6 30 6,28 628 28 605 05 6,05 623 23 6,2 respectivamente microbiano Portanto 12 (T 558 5 8 55,8 574 4 57,45 185 18, 190 0 19,0 170 17,0 191 19,15 6,3 63 62 60 6,0 6, 55, 57,4 19, 17, 19,1 57,

Abstract This study aimed to produce Calabrese-type sausages on an industrial scale by incorporating nisin and mixtures of organic acids and their salts as preservatives. In addition, it was assessed the stability of the product during storage at 25 °C. Various formulations were investigated, each featuring distinct preservative combinations as follows: Treatment 1 (T1) included sodium lactate and sodium acetate; Treatment 2 (T2) contained sodium lactate, sodium acetate, citric acid, and nisin; Treatment 3 (T3) involved a combination of salt and nisin alongside sodium lactate; and a control group which utilized sodium lactate. The moisture values ranged from 55.84% to 57.45%, proteins from 18.53 to 19.07, and lipids from 17.04% to 19.15%, all following Brazilian legislation. The pH remained stable until 90 days of storage, with values of 6.30, 6.28, 6.05, and 6.23 for control, T1, T2, and T3, respectively. T2 presented higher acidity compared to the other formulations due to the presence of citric acid. The evaluated preservatives (T1, T2, and T3) showed lower lipid oxidation indices and inhibited microbial growth. Therefore, the evaluated preservatives have the potential to be used industrially because they maintain the characteristics of the product and ensure 120 days of storage at 25 °C.

Abstract Given possible temperature variations in the cold chain during retail display of chilled food, this work evaluated the growth of Salmonella choleraesuis and Staphylococcus aureus inoculated in chicken breast fillet submitted to different temperature abuses. The bacterial growth was evaluated in Luria–Bertani broth and previously inoculated chicken breast fillet cooled for 12h and incubated at different temperatures (5, 20, and 25 °C) for 12 h and 5 ºC for 12 days. The maximum growth rate and maximum growth were determined. The microorganisms grew at all studied temperatures, with a significantly lower growth at 5 °C compared with 20 and 25 °C. S. choleraesuis showed higher growth than S. aureus in both culture medium and chicken breast, and major maximum growth in culture medium than chicken breast, at all studied temperatures. Salmonella sp. and S. aureus were not detected in the control treatment maintained at 5 °C, and the thermotolerant bacteria remained within the standards allowed by Brazilian legislation when stored for 12 days. However, temperature abuse resulted in the vulnerability and spoilage of chicken breast fillet quality. The effects of temperature abuse caused by negligence on the microbial growth (Ymax) and growth rate (µmax) in chicken breast fillet, under industrial conditions was demonstrated.

RESUMO: O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o processo de Ultrafiltração (UF) na recuperação dos constituintes do soro de leite. Planejamentos fatoriais sequenciais foram realizados, variando a temperatura (5 a 40°C), a pressão (1 a 3 bar) e visando maximizar a concentração de proteínas usando membrana de 100kDa em sistema dead end. Baseados nos melhores resultados, foram realizados experimentos com de 50kDa e 10kDa. Em relação a membrana de 50kDa, a retenção de proteínas foi cerca de três vezes maior em relação a membrana de 100kDa. O concentrado obtido por membrana UF de 10kDa, 10°C e 2 bar, em escala laboratorial, mostrou uma retenção média de proteína de 80%, maior solubilidade protéica, estabilidade da emulsão e a identificação das frações β-lactoglobulins (18.3kDa) e α-lactalbumin (14.2kDa). Portanto, o uso de membranas de 100 e 50kDa são alternativas recomendáveis industrialmente à concentração de proteínas de soro de leite, e/ou como etapa anterior ao fracionamento de constituintes do soro usando membrana ≤10kDa, visando aplicações futuras em difentes áreas (alimentícia, farmacêutica, química, etc).

ABSTRACT: This paper aim to evaluate the ultrafiltration (UF) process for constituents recovery from whey. Sequences of factorial designs were performed by varying temperature (5 to 40°C) and pressure (1 to 3 bar), to maximize the proteins concentration using membrane of 100kDa in dead end system. Based on the best result new experiments were performed with membrane of 50kDa and 10kDa. With the membrane of 50 the protein retention was about 3 times higher than the membrane of 100kDa. The concentrated obtained by UF membrane of 10kDa, 10°C and 2 bar in laboratory scale showed a mean protein retention of 80 %, greater protein solubility, emulsion stability and the identification of β-lactoglobulins (18.3 kDa) and α-lactalbumin fractions (14.2kDa). Therefore, the use of membrane of 100 and 50kDa are became a industrially recommendable alternatives to concentration of whey proteins, and/or as a previous step to the fractionation of whey constituents using membrane ≤10kDa, aiming at future applications in different areas (food, pharmaceutical, chemical, etc.).
