Changes in carotenoids during processing and storage of pumpkin puree

TL;DR: Changes in the contents of carotenoids and their true retentions (% TR) during the production of puree of Cucurbita moschata 'Menina Brasileira' and Cucarbita maxima 'Exposição' pumpkins and the stability of such compounds during 180days of storage were monitored by liquid chromatography coupled with a photodiode array detector.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimisation of pectin acid extraction from passion fruit peel (Passiflora edulis flavicarpa) using response surface methodology

TL;DR: In this paper, pectin was extracted from passion fruit peel using three different acids (citric, hydrochloric or nitric) at different temperatures (40-90°C), pH (1.2-2.6) and extraction times (10-90min), with and without skins using a 24 factorial design.
Journal ArticleDOI

Green banana (Musa cavendishii) flour obtained in spouted bed – Effect of drying on physico-chemical, functional and morphological characteristics of the starch

TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterized green banana flour obtained by drying in a spouted bed, and evaluated the functional properties (viscosity, swelling power and solubility), as well as the physical, morphological and hygroscopic behaviour (sorption isotherm).
Journal ArticleDOI
