Chemical and sensorial characterization of a novel alcoholic beverage produced with native acai (Euterpe precatoria) from different regions of the Amazonas state
Publication date: January 2020Source: LWT, Volume 117Author(s): Lúcia S. Boeira, Paulo H. Bastos Freitas, Nicole R. Uchôa, Jaqueline A. Bezerra, Sandra V. Cád, Sergio Duvoisin Junior, Patrícia M. Albuquerque, Josiana M. Mar, Andrezza S. Ramos, Marcos B. Machado, Luís R. MacielAbstractAcai, a native palm fruit, is one of the most popular functional foods in Amazon and it is highly perishable. The alcoholic fermentation is an efficient preservation process and the wine production could be an alternative to add technology to native acai. In this paper, it is reported the chemical and sensorial characterization of a novel...

Molecules, Vol. 24, Pages 1442: Natural Ingredients-Based Gummy Bear Composition Designed According to Texture Analysis and Sensory Evaluation In Vivo
čienė
The increased interest in functional materials of natural origin has resulted in a higher market demand for preservative-free, “clean label”, or natural ingredients-based products. The gummy bear food supplements are more acceptable to consumers and have fewer limitations compared to other dosage forms. The aim of our study was to produce natural ingredients-based gummy bear composition, and evaluate the influence of the selected ingredients on the product’s textural properties, its acceptance in vivo, and the gummy bear’s quality. The optimal base composi...

Relationship between serum sclerostin, vascular sclerostin expression and vascular calcification assessed by different methods in ESRD patients eligible for renal transplantation: a cross-sectional study
ConclusionsThe two methods, namely CT and pathology, to evaluate VC were highly consistent. Serum sclerostin was an independent determinant of positive expression of vessel sclerostin and VC in ESRD patients eligible for RT. (Source: International Urology and Nephrology)

Porcine Circovirus type 2 – Systemic disease on pig farms and associated knowledge of key players in the pig industry in Central Uganda
Discussions (FGDs), key informant interviews and laboratory investigations. All respondents (n = 131) and farmers attending FGDs (n = 31) had never heard of PCV2-SD and only 16.7% (n = 2) of the interviewed animal health workers (n = 12) knew about the disease. Among the farms, 20 piglets presenting with a chronic wasting and a persistent diarrhea were detected and sampled for laboratory investigations. Severe lymphoid depletion with histiocytic and macrophage infiltration in lymphoid organs (n = 8), shortening of intestinal villi (n = 9), abscesses in various organs (n = 15) and granulomatous p...

Analysis of Anthocyanins Extracted from the Acai Fruit (Euterpe oleracea): A Potential Novel Vital Dye for Chromovitrectomy.
Conclusions: Lyophilization and the correction of pH and osmolarity (7.00 and 300 mOsm, resp.) were performed successfully. Five anthocyanins are present in the dye from the acai fruit. The major anthocyanin is cyanidin-3-O-glucoside. Independent of the dye concentration tested, the anthocyanin concentration was similar. Standardized chemical characteristics of this new dye may allow its use during chromovitrectomy in humans.
