Received 2 February, 2016; Accepted 12 July, 2016 The polyunsaturated fatty acids of Sacha Inchi seeds are important in the development of food products with healthy and nourishing properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L) on a prototype convenience food. The nutritional composition and sensory acceptance was evaluated using a completely randomized experimental design. Fixed effect- balanced factorial multiple correspondence analyses were used for the different treatments. Four formulations were developed for the prototype type setting (F0, F5, F7.5 and F10) using Sacha Inchi almonds characterized according to their nutritional composition. The fatty acid composition of the total lipids of the seed was determined by gas chromatography. In the food draft type, sensory parameters such as color, odor, flavor and texture in all treatments were evaluated. The results obtained showed a content polyunsaturated fatty acids of 33.74% in the seed. In addition, the acceptance of sensory parameters evaluated by consumers in the draft prototype was greater than 80%. It was observed that lipid content increased up to 3 times and the content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, 4 times in the treatment of F10 with regard to white F0. About 10% almond Sacha Inchi can be effectively incorporated into draft products with suitable timing sensory characteristics and nutritional value, thus, allowing the foods declared under the Colombian law as a high and good source of omega 3. Key words: Prototype, Plukenetia volubilis L, polyunsaturated fatty acids, draft. INTRODUCTION Sacha inchi plant is a plant native to the Amazon región, brown (Manco 2006).

Our aim was to verify the efficiency of X-ray imagery in evaluating cashew-tree-of-the-cerrado (Anacardium othonianum Rizz.) achene viability after desiccation. The achenes were collected at 12% water content (w.b.) and dried in silica gel until they reached 10, 8, 6, and 4% (w.b.). The fruit morphology and the quality of the seeds were evaluated by X-ray test together with vigor, electrical conductivity and emergence tests. Achenes with different water contents were exposed to an X- ray machine at 18 kV for 11 s and were thereafter submitted to emergence tests. The images were analyzed, and the achenes were classified based on internal morphology as completely full, malformed, or empty. These results were compared to those from the emergence tests.

Antileishmanial activity was evaluated against Leishmania amazonensis promastigotes in vitro. The phytochemical study was performed by high-performance liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry-diode array detector (HPLC-HRMS-DAD) and by preparative HPLC. HPLC-HRMS-DAD analysis of the bioactive extract confirmed the presence of ten alkyl phenol derivatives that had previously been isolated from A. occidentale. Bioassay-guided isolation afforded cardanol triene, cardanol diene, cardanol monoene, cardol triene, anacardic acid triene, anacardic acid diene, and anacardic acid monoene. Cardol triene gave an IC50 of 80.66 µM. The obtained data suggest that the evaluated extract, fractions, and cardol triene had moderate activity against L.

Universitaria s/n, Urb. Bellamar, Nuevo Chimbote, Ancash, Peru. Received August 31, 2019. Accepted March 8, 2020. Abstract During the last years, the world avocado trade is on the rise, however, approximately 20% of the production is rejected for low caliber. This avocado discarded by low caliber can be used in the elaboration of other products, to give it added value. The objective of this study was to determine the shelf life of Hass avocado oil, type of discard, obtained by: (a) Drying by stove/Soxhlet (b) Lyophilized/Expeller. For the physicochemical characterization of the oil, density, melting point, acidity index, refractive index, iodine index and peroxide index were determined. The induction time was carried out by the RANCIMAT method, for which three temperatures of 140 °C, 160 °C and 180 °C were used and the shelf life of the oil was obtained by extrapolation at 25 °C. The results indicate that there is a significant statistical difference in the physicochemical characteristics of both oils. The shelf life was for the oil obtained by drying stove/Soxhlet 5.94 years and for the oil obtained by freeze-dried/Expeller 4.41 years, since both oils had a high content of unsaturated fatty acids 16.98% and 17.12%, respectively.

Methods Baru almonds, Cerrado cashew nuts, and pequi almonds were extracted from the fruits using appropriate equipment. All edible seeds and nuts were roasted, except for the Brazil nut. The sample lipids were extracted via cold pressing. The fatty acids were esterified, and the fatty acid esters were analyzed by gas chromatography. Results The native and traditional edible seeds and nuts contain mostly monounsaturated fatty acids (42.72 g to 63.44 g/100 g), except for the Brazil nut, which showed predominance of polyunsaturated fatty acids (45.48 g/100 g). Pequi almond had the highest saturated fatty acid content (36.14 g/100 g). The fatty acids with the highest concentration were oleic and linoleic acids, and palmitic acid was also found in considerable concentration in the oilseeds studied. The Cerrado cashew nut and the traditional cashew nut have similar fatty acid profiles. As 1 Universidade Federal de Goiás, Faculdade de Nutrição, Laboratório de Nutrição Experimental.

  • Emerging Vegetable Oils in Europe
    CBI Product Factsheet: Emerging vegetable oils in Europe CBI | Market Intelligence Product Factsheet Cloves in Germany | 1 Introduction The drive for innovation in the European food industry leads companies to adopt new ingredients in order to remain competitive. The introduction of new vegetable oils (emerging oils), either as ingredients or as final consumer products, is a form of innovation, differentiation and marketing used by food companies to articulate their competitive edge. On the other side of the coin, exporters of emerging oils still face a number of challenges to access the European market successfully. Whereas the Novel Food Regulation imposes marketing restrictions on a number of innovative products, some barriers to suppliers are often related to issues such as supply sufficiency and stability. At the same time, emerging oils also provide opportunities in terms of niche marketing and value adding propositions. Understanding the European market for emerging vegetable oils Innovation is high on the agenda of food manufacturers in Europe, significantly in North-Western Europe. In order to remain competitive, companies invest heavily in Research & Development (R&D), with the goal of adapting products to ever-changing consumer preferences, food health and safety requirements and introducing novelty into the food market. A large part of this strategy consists in finding new ingredient solutions. Vegetable oils are an integral part of several food products and, as such, are an interesting basis for product development. The introduction of new vegetable oils, either as ingredients or as final consumer products, is a form of innovation, differentiation and marketing used by food companies to articulate their competitive edge.
