Meat aroma is composed of a wide variety of chemical compounds. It has been reported to be made of more than 700 chemicals. Among the most important reactions responsible of meat aroma are Maillard reaction and lipid autoxidation or oxidative rancidity. However, aroma perception is modified by the physical system...
El crecimiento de la industria camaronera ha generado gran cantidad de desechos, principalmente la cabeza y caparazón, que no son aprovechados y representan un grave problema de contaminación. El pigmento carotenoide más abundante en los desechos de camarón es la astaxantina (3,3'dihidroxi-ß-caroteno 4,4-diona), utilizada en la dieta de salmónidos para...
Bioconservation is the controlled use of microorganisms or their metabolites to control the microflora in decomposition and also pathogens increasing the shelf life and improving the sanitary quality of food. Enterococci are lactic acid bacteria (LAB) that contribute to the organoleptic properties of fermented foods, as well as having the...
Todo esto se realizó para la optimización de las condiciones para tener una mayor concentración de polifenoles liberados y listos para ser utilizados como sustrato de los extractos crudos ya obtenidos anteriormente. Todo esto fue analizado por el método de superficie de respuesta teniendo como variables explicativas la temperatura de...
Spanish-type chorizo is ripening meat product that is highly appreciated by consumers for its excellent sensory characteristics. This meat product was analyzed at different ripening stages (0, 10, 20 and 3 days). The proximal analysis was carried out, in addition to the physicochemical properties pH, water activity (aw), total acidity...
Lactic acid bacteria (BAL) can produce antimicrobial protein compounds like bacteriocins, peptidoglycan hydrolases (PGHs) and recently, some ribosomal proteins have been identified. Among the BAL genera that produce antimicrobial protein compounds are Lactococcus, Leuconostoc, Pediococcus, Enterococcus and Lactobacillus. In the working group led by PhD Edith Ponce Alquicira (UAM-Iztapalapa) a...
La demanda creciente de alimentos más nutritivos y de mayor vida de anaquel ha fomentado el desarrollo de nuevos empaques, pero es indispensable que en la fabricación se incluyan materiales biodegradables para reducir la contaminación ambiental. Por lo tanto, el desarrollo de películas y recubrimientos comestibles para los alimentos requiere...
