Water-oil-in-water (W1 /0/W2) multiple emulsions that allowed core water soluble to oil soluble carotenoids were formulated by stabilizing the inner W1 /0 emulsion with a blend of low molecular weight emulsifiers, and the multiple emulsion with a blend of biopolymers. The inner phase of the W1 /0 emulsion contained saponified...
Wet coffee waste (WCW) generated by the wet processing of coffee, is mainly made up of coffee pulp and husk, and has been scarcely studied and reutilized. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate the in vitro and in vivo antifungal activity of an WCW ethanolic-extract (EWCW) obtained...
La pectina es un polisacárido ampliamente usado en la industria alimentaria y farmacéutica. La pectina de tejocote fue extraída y aislada usando dos diferentes accesiones (PT50 y PT55) para evaluar su potencial como una fuente vegetal para la producción de pectina comercial. En este trabajo, se observó que la pectina...
Actualmente se dispone de muchas tecnologías que se han desarrollado para extender la vida útil en fresco de los productos hortofrutícolas después de su cosecha. Uno de los métodos con potencial para conservar la vida postcosecha de frutas y hortalizas destinadas al consumo en fresco lo constituye el uso de...
The objective of this work was to obtain and evaluate a huauzontle seed protein isolate (Chenopodium nuttalliae Saff.) with respect to its nutritional quality, physicochemical and techno-functional properties. Huauzontle seed protein isolate (APH) was obtained by isoelectric precipitation. The nutritional quality of APH was denoted by its high content in...
Lactobacillus casei was entrapped in beads made with sodium alginate (A), amidated low-methoxyl pectin (P), and blends of A-P (1:2, 1:4, 1:6 ratios) by the extrusion technique. Diameter, sphericity and textural properties of the beads and the survivability of entrapped Lb. casei during yoghurt storage and in simulated gastrointestinal conditions...
The edible films can extend life and improve food quality by acting as a mechanical protection and a selective barrier to the transmission of gases, fumes, smells, tastes and solutes. Act as a support for carrying active substances such as antibiotics, probiotics, antioxidants, and others. It has been suggested the...
Los probióticos son microorganismos vivos que cuando son administrados en cantidades adecuadas confieren un beneficio a la salud del huésped, siendo uno de estos microorganismos Lactobacillus rhamnosus (Reid ycol., 2003). Sin embargo, muchos estudios muestran que los probióticos tienen una baja viabilidad en productos lácteos, durante su almacenamiento y bajo...
An effective way for protecting foods against spoilage mechanisms is to reduce their water content during processing. Thus, the food manufacturers of dried foods are continually trying to establish the most suitable conditions under which these products can be distributed, handled and/or stored, in order to minimize deleterious physical and/or...
La industria alimentaria ha puesto el reto a los investigadores para que desarrollen nuevos biomateriales que puedan mejorar las características de sus productos, tanto para prolongar la vida de anaquel al estabilizar formulaciones, para mejorar las propiedades reológicas que repercutan en mejorar los procesos de fabricación, brindar nuevas propiedades favorables...
