ABSTRACT
Se estudió la capacidad de aclimatación de 6 variedades de Chenopodium quinoa Willd. (Kancolla, Salcedo, Ccoito, Negra collana, Pasancalla e Illpa) a alta temperatura. Las plantas de quinua se obtuvieron a partir de semillas, las que crecieron en macetas, en un sombreadero, hasta el estado fenológico de 6 hojas verdaderas. Estas fueron expuestas a un tratamiento por calor en una cámara de crecimiento con termostato a 34/32 °C día/noche (D/N) por 3 días y a baja intensidad luminosa. Las no aclimatadas crecieron en las mismas condiciones pero a la temperatura de 22/20 °C D/N. La tolerancia a la alta temperatura se determinó exponiendo discos de hojas a diferentes tiempos (8, 16, 32 y 64 min) a 50 °C (baño maría), midiendo la termoestabilidad de la membrana celular, por la pérdida electrolitos utilizando un conductimetro. El grado de termotolerancia fue hallado según el TL50(tiempo letal al 50% de daño). Los resultados muestran que las variedades Pasancalla e Illpa presentaron capacidad de aclimatación, la variedad más termotolerante fue la variedad Illpa TL50= 64 min cuando fue aclimatada y la más sensible fue la variedad Pasancalla TL50= 8 min cuando no fue aclimatada. También se observó que el porcentaje de daño celular se incrementó a medida que el tiempo de exposición a la alta temperatura fue mayor
The capacity of acclimatization at high temperature of 6 varieties (Kancolla, Salcedo, Ccoito, Negra collana, Pasancalla and Illpa) of Chenopodium quinoa Willd was studied. Quinoa plants were obtained from seeds, which grew in pots, in a grennhouse, until the phenological stage of 6 true leaves. These were exposed to a heat treatment in a growth chamber with a thermostat at 34/32 °C day/night (D/N) for 3 days and at low light intensity. The non-acclimated plants grew under the same conditions but at temperature of 22/20 °C D/N. The tolerance to high temperature was determined by exposing leaf discs at different times (8, 16, 32 and 64 min) at 50 °C (warm bath), measuring the thermostability of the cell membrane trough the loss of electrolytes with a conductimeter. The degree of thermotolerance was found according to the TL50 (time lethal to 50% of damage). The results showed that the varieties Pasancalla and Illpa presented acclimatization capacity, the most thermotolerant variety was the variety Illpa TL50 = 64 min when it was acclimatized and the most sensitive was Pasancalla TL50 = 8 min when it was not acclimatized. It was also observed that the percentage of cell damage increased as the exposure time to the high temperature was higher.
ABSTRACT
O objetivo deste trabalho foi comparar a análise individual (plano de duas classes) e a análise por lotes (plano de três classes), priorizado pelo plano amostragem oficial da ANVISA, na influência do pré-resfriamento de carcaças de frangos de corte na redução da contaminação por coliformes termotolerantes. Foram analisadas 240 carcaças de frangos de corte, sendo coletadas 120 amostras antes e 120 após a etapa de pré-resfriamento, para quantificação de coliformes termotolerantes pela técnica de contagem em placas. As médias das contagens obtidas das carcaças coletadas antes e após o pré-resfriamento foram diferentes, com uma redução média de 0,99log10 UFC g-1 de coliformes termotolerantes. Na interpretação dos resultados obtidos antes do pré-resfriamento pela análise individual, 16,7% (20/120) das carcaças foram classificadas como inaceitáveis, enquanto, pela análise por lotes, foram 37,5% (45/120). Houve associação entre a aceitabilidade dos lotes e a passagem pelo chiller com um valor de Odds Ratio de 35,48. Ficou demonstrada a importância da utilização do plano de análise por lotes e da etapa de pré-resfriamento no processo de produção, sendo decisivos para a aceitação dos lotes de carcaças de aves para comercialização pelos parâmetros vigentes na legislação nacional.
The objective of this study was to assess the influence of immersion chilling on broiler carcasses contamination by fecal coliforms counting in a poultry slaughterhouse under Federal Sanitary Inspection by individual and three class plan interpretation of the results. Two hundred and forty broiler carcasses, being collected 120 before and 120 after passage thought chillers, were analyzed for coliform counting by plate count technique. The averages of the counts obtained from all carcasses collected before and after immersion chilling were different, with an average reduction of 0.99log10 CFU g-1 of fecal coliforms. Regarding individual results (two class plan) before chilling, 16.7% (20/120) of the carcasses were classified as unacceptable, against 37.5% (45/120) regarding lots results (three class plan). There was a strong association between the acceptability of lots and immersion chilling with an Odds Ratio value of 35.48. It was demonstrated the importance of the official sampling plan and immersion chilling in the production process, being decisive for the acceptance of the chicken carcass lots by the national legislation standards.
