ABSTRACT

RESUMEN El objetivo de la investigación fue incorporar compuestos bioactivos provenientes del concentrado del desecho de la industria quesera en cáscaras de naranja variedad Valencia, aplicando la técnica de la impregnación al vacío. Asimismo, fue evaluar los efectos de la presión de vacío (50-60 kPa), tiempo de impregnación (5-15 min) y concentración osmótica de lactosuero (50-60°Brix). Se determinó las características fisicoquímicas y acondicionamiento de la materia prima. El diseño de la investigación para la optimización utilizado fue un diseño Box-Benhken con el programa Design Expert 11, teniendo 15 tratamientos con valores de las variables. El mayor contenido proteico se obtuvo por la combinación de tratamientos, ajustando a las cualidades del equipo, siendo la presión de vacío a 57,0 kPa, concentración de sólidos solubles 54 °Brix y el tiempo de 7,70 min, lo que produjo 3,84 ± 0,10 g de proteínas/100 g de muestra. Finalmente, se evaluó las características fisicoquímicas del producto optimizado, la transferencia de masa, ganancia de agua e incremento de sólidos y se realizó el análisis microbiológico que nos indicó que este alimento es apto para el consumo humano.


ABSTRACT The objective of the research was to incorporate bioactive compounds in orange peels of the Valencia variety from waste concentrate found in the cheese industry, applying the technique of vacuum impregnation. The effects of vacuum pressure (50 - 60 kPa), impregnation time (5-15 min) and osmotic concentration of whey (50-60°Brix) were also evaluated. The physicochemical and conditioning characteristics of raw material were determined. The research design for optimization used was a Box-Benhken design with the Design Expert 11 program, having 15 treatments with variable values. The highest protein content was obtained by the combination of treatments adjusted to equipment qualities: vacuum pressure of 57.0 kPa, soluble solids concentration 54 °Brix and 7.70 min, which produced 3.84 ± 0.104 g protein/100 g of sample. Finally, the physicochemical characteristics of the optimized product, mass transfer, water increase and solids increase were evaluated and microbiological analysis to determine if this food is suitable for human consumption was performed.

ABSTRACT

Antecedentes: Los procesos de optimización experimental, representan una herramienta efectiva para el mejoramiento de la calidad de los productos, contribuyendo en la diversificación de productos en la cadena de uchuva, como frutos promisorios de exportación. Objetivo: El objetivo del estudio fue optimizar el proceso de liofilización para obtener uchuvas (Physalis peruviana L.) semiesféricas adicionadas con componentes activos y de excelentes atributos de calidad. Métodos: Las muestras semiesféricas (3 - 4 g) fueron tratadas inicialmente por impregnación al vacío con una emulsión que contenía proteína de soja, sucralosa, tensoactivos, calcio, vitamina D3 (Colecalciferol), vitamina E (DL-α-tocoferol acetato) y vitamina B9 . La optimización experimental del proceso de liofilización se realizó con un diseño factorial 22 con el fin de determinar la condición óptima de operación, utilizando como variables independientes la velocidad de calentamiento de la placa (ºC/min) y el tiempo de sostenimiento a la temperatura de la placa para cada segmento del proceso y como variables dependientes: concentración de los componentes con actividad fisiológica, actividad de agua, humedad, textura, color y tiempo total de proceso. Resultados: Se identificó una influencia de las condiciones del proceso sobre las variables de respuesta, donde una porción de 49 g de uchuvas liofilizadas alcanzó contenidos superiores al 20% del valor diario de referencia de vitamina D y entre el 10 y 20% del valor diario de referencia en calcio y vitaminas B9, C y E; permitiendo identificar al producto como "Excelente fuente de vitamina D" y "Buena fuente de calcio y vitaminas B9, C, E", según la normativa colombiana. La condición óptima de proceso se alcanzó a una velocidad de calentamiento de placa de 0,04 ºC/min y un tiempo de sostenimiento de la temperatura de la placa de 1,2 h. Conclusiones: La aplicación integrada de procesos de impregnación al vacío y liofilización, representan una alternativa importante en el desarrollo de alimentos funcionales en el fruto de uchuva.


Introduction: Experimental optimization processes represent an effective tool for improving the quality of products, contributing to the diversification of products in the agricultural value chain of cape gooseberry, as promising export fruit. Aim: The aim of this study was to optimize the freeze-drying process to obtain hemispherical cape gooseberries (Physalis peruviana L.) with added active compounds, and with excellent quality attributes. Methods: The hemispherical samples (3 - 4 g) were initially treated by vacuum impregnation with an emulsion containing soybean protein, sucralose, surfactants, calcium, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), vitamin E (DL-α-tocopherol acetate) and vitamin B9. The experimental optimization of the freeze-drying was performed using a factorial design 22 to determine the optimum operating condition, using as independent variables the rate of heating plate (°C/min) and holding time at the temperature of the plate for each segment of the process and as dependent variables: concentration of physiologically active components, water activity, moisture content, texture, color and total processing time. Results: An influence of process conditions on the response variables was identified, where a portion of 49 g of freeze-dried gooseberries reached over 20% content of daily reference value (DRV) of vitamin D and between 10 and 20% of DRV in calcium and vitamin B9, C and E; allowing to identify the product as "Excellent source of vitamin D" and "Good source of calcium and vitamin B9, C, E", according to Colombian regulations. The optimal process condition was reached at a 0.04 °C/min heating rate of plate and a 1.2 h holding time of the plate temperature. Conclusions: The application of the integrated processes of vacuum impregnation and freeze-drying show an important technological alternative to development of functional foods from the fruit of cape gooseberry.

ABSTRACT

Background: Functional Foods are considered nowadays by consumers as the range of foods of major interest. Objectives: The aim of the present work was the evaluation of color, texture and sensorial properties of fresh Cape Gooseberry (FG) and vacuum impregnated Cape Gooseberry (IG) with calcium and vitamins B9, C, D and E during storage at 4ºC. Methods: Entire cape gooseberries were vacuum impregnated (VI) with tocopherol and cholecalciferol emulsified in aqueous phase with sucrose, ascorbic acid, folic acid, calcium chloride, calcium fumarate, low methoxyl pectin, isolated soy protein, tensoactives and preservatives. The texture was determined from puncture assays, and the color from the CIE Lab coordinates. The sensorial profile was determined with the aid of trained panelists, through a multidimensional approach of characteristic descriptors of general appearance, odor, taste and texture. Results: The instrumental values of color and texture for IG were significantly different from the FG, because are being softer, more elastic, darker, brighter and of less color saturation. The samples of FG and IG presented intense sensorial characteristics in the descriptors orange color, brightness, spherical uniformity, smooth surface, fresh appearance, odor, cape gooseberry characteristic taste and frutal, fleshy texture, juicy, firmness and turgidity. By the effect of VI process the most relevant significant differences were the descriptors orange color, superficial stains, fresh appearance, sweet taste and cape gooseberry characteristic taste, soft texture, firmness and juicy; whereas for the effect of storage time were fresh appearance, dehydrated appearance, peduncle cicatrization, aromatic odor, overripe, cape gooseberry characteristic taste, frutal taste, soft texture, juicy, firmness and turgidity. Conclusions: The VI significantly affects the objective assessment of color and texture, finding correspondence with the sensorial evaluation...
