Were used collecting of floristic and phytosociological facts in two parcels of 20x50m. It was estimated the viability of plantation of enrichment with E. edulis by analysing the growth in two parcels of 20x50m. It was established four classes of size of exposed stirps (C1= up to 0,5m; C2 from 0,5 to 1,5m; C3 from 1,3 to 3,0m and C4 from 3,0m on and with circumference at chest level (CAP) > 15cm). Each parcel was devided in ten subparcels of 10x10m, in which all palm cabbage plantation of (C4 class) had their CAP measurings and exposed etirps height taken.In each subparcel of 10x10m it was allocated a subparcel of 4,0x4,0m, where the individuals of the classes C1,C2 and C3 have had their measurings of diameter of colon, CAP and height of stirps taken. All palm cabbage were identified with aluminium plate printed in low relief and fixed with copper nails.The parcel 1 can be found at the bottom of the region nearby a stream, while the parcel 2 can be found almost 50m above the first parcel. It has been done two measurings in an interval of six months and, at the and of this period, it had been estimated the percentage of survival and of changing of class. The analyses of growth in each sample, and also between one another was done by the non parametric test of Kruskal-Wallis. The fragment was characterized by the index of similarity and diversity, by Margalef with some other seven remainings of Atlantic Forest with different degrees of impactation and distincts successional stages. It was also compared some abiotic characteristics between the fragments. The individuals of C1; C2 and C3 from parcel1 were significantly grown, speaking about the diameter of colon. The individuals of the same classes of parcel 2 have not had an expressive growth, but there have had a significative growth in height of exposed stirps for these classes. The C4 from parcel 1 were grown concerning to the CAP, but those one of the parcel 2 didn?t. Speaking about the height of stirps in both of the parcels, the growth was very significative. The percentage of survival were about 95,8% and 100% in the parcels 1 and 2, respectively. / O presente estudo foi desenvolvido no Santu?rio de Vida Silvestre, Serra da Conc?rdia, Valen?a (RJ), com o objetivo de coletar informa??es que possam subsidiar o manejo e a conserva??o de Euterpe edulis na Floresta Atl?ntica; estudar a flor?stica e a estrutura de uma floresta secund?ria submetida a enriquecimento; avaliar o desenvolvimento de E. edulis em plantio de enriquecimento e confirmar a viabilidade do desenvolvimento da cultura de palmito em remanescentes florestais impactados. Foram utilizados levantamentos flor?stico e fitossociol?gico em duas parcelas de 20x50m. Avaliou-se a viabilidade do plantio de enriquecimento com E. edulis atrav?s de an?lise de crescimento em duas parcelas de 20x50m. Foram estabelecidas quatro classes de tamanho de estipe exposta (C1=at? 0,5m; C2 de 0,5 a 1,5m; C3 de 1,3 a 3,0m e C4 acima de 3,0m e com circunfer?ncia a altura do peito (CAP) 15cm) Cada parcela foi dividida em dez subparcelas de 10x10m, onde todos os palmiteiros da classe C4 tiveram suas medidas de CAP e altura de estipe exposta tomadas. Em cada subparcela de 10x10m foi alocada uma subparcela de 4,0x4,0m, em que os indiv?duos das classes C1, C2 e C3 tiveram suas medidas de di?metro de colo, CAP e altura de estipe tomados. Todos os palmitos foram identificados com placas de alum?nio impressas em baixo relevo e afixadas com pregos de cobre. A parcela 1 se encontra em regi?o mais baixa, pr?xima ao c?rrego, enquanto que a parcela 2 se localiza cerca de 50m acima da primeira parcela. Foram feitas duas medi??es com intervalo de seis meses e, ao final deste per?odo, foram calculados os percentuais de sobreviv?ncia e de mudan?a de classe. A an?lise do crescimento em cada amostra, e tamb?m entre elas, foi feita atrav?s do teste n?o param?trico de Kruskal-Wallis. Caracterizou-se o fragmento atrav?s do ?ndice de similaridade e diversidade de Margalef com outros sete remanescentes de Mata Atl?ntica com diferentes graus de impacta??o e est?gios sucessionais distintos. Tamb?m foram comparadas algumas caracter?sticas abi?ticas entre os fragmentos. Os indiv?duos de C1, C2 e C3 da parcela 1 cresceram significativamente quanto ao di?metro de colo. Os indiv?duos das mesmas classes da parcela 2 n?o tiveram crescimento significativo, mas houve crescimento significativo em altura de estipe exposta para estas classes. Os C4 da parcela 1 cresceram quanto ao CAP, mas os da parcela 2, n?o. Quanto ? altura de estipe, em ambas as parcelas o crescimento foi significativo. Os percentuais de sobreviv?ncia foram de 95,8% e 100% nas parcelas 1 e 2, respectivamente.

Initially, ju?ara pulp added probiotic microorganism Bifidobacterium spp. lactis was subjected to drying by spray drying (spray drying), which promoted a microencapsulation. In this first step, differet types and combinations of carriers agents were evaluated, totalizing four formulations: maltodextrin, maltodextrin + inulin (1:1), maltodextrin + oligofructose (1:1) and maltodextrin + inulin + oligofructose (2:1:1). The samples produced with different formulations were characterized in relation to the viable cell count, phenolics, anthocyanins, ABTS + antiradical activity, density, porosity, particle size and hygroscopicity. The samples produced with maltodextrin + inulin (1: 1) showed the best results, being selected for further stability study. In this study, samples were also produced by freeze drying, in order to compare the processes. The powders produced by the two processes were stored at different temperatures (7 and 35 ? C) and evaluated periodically for 60 days. Results showed that the samples stored at 7?C showed microorganism cell count higher than 107 CFU/g after 60 days of storage, being considered as probiotic products, whereas samples stored at 35?C showed cell counts lower than 104 CFU/g after 30 days. The samples produced by freeze drying showed higher viable cell counts compared to those produced by spray drying, after 30 days of storage. Regarding the phenolic content and antirradical activity, the samples showed a very similar behavior to each other. / Este trabalho teve como objetivo a obten??o de um produto em p? probi?tico ? base de ju?ara, cuja palmeira vem sendo amea?ada de extin??o devido ? pr?tica indiscriminada do extrativismo do palmito e, nesse sentido, agregar valor a esse fruto ? uma proposta, na tentativa de preservar a esp?cie. Inicialmente, a polpa de ju?ara adicionada do microrganismo probi?tico Bifidobacterium spp. lactis foi submetida ao processo de secagem por atomiza??o (spray drying), que promoveu sua microencapsula??o. Nesta primeira etapa, foram avaliados diferentes tipos e combina??es de agentes carreadores, totalizando quatro formula??es: maltodextrina, maltodextrina + inulina (1:1), maltodextrina + oligofrutose (1:1) e maltodextrina + inulina + oligofrutose (2:1:1). As amostras produzidas com as diferentes formula??es foram caracterizadas em rela??o ? contagem de microrganismos vi?veis, fen?licos totais, antocianinas, atividade antirradical ABTS+, densidade, porosidade, higroscopicidade e tamanho de part?culas. As amostras produzidas com maltodextrina + inulina (1:1) foram as que apresentaram os melhores resultados, sendo selecionadas para o posterior estudo de estabilidade. Nesse estudo, as amostras foram produzidas tamb?m por liofiliza??o, a fim de se comparar os processos. O produto em p? produzido pelos dois processos foi estocado a diferentes temperaturas (7 e 35?C) e avaliado periodicamente, durante 60 dias. Os resultados mostraram que as amostras estocadas a 7?C apresentaram contagem de microrganismos superior a 107 UFC/g ap?s 60 dias de estocagem, podendo ser consideradas probi?ticas, enquanto as amostras armazenadas a 35?C apresentaram contagem inferior a 104 UFC/g a partir de 30 dias. As amostras produzidas por liofiliza??o apresentaram maior contagem quando comparadas ?s produzidas por atomiza??o, a partir de 30 dias de estocagem. Em rela??o ao teor de fen?licos e ? atividade antirradical, as amostras apresentaram comportamentos muito semelhantes entre si.

Diversas t?cnicas de calibra??o multivariadas, incluindo regress?o por m?nimos quadrados parciais (PLS), M?nimos Quadrados Parciais por Intervalo (iPLS), algoritmo gen?tico (AG), algoritmo das proje??es sucessivas (APS),foram comparadas e validadas pelo c?lculo das figuras de m?rito. Resultados adequados foram obtidos com o modelo PLS (4 vari?veis latentes e suaviza??o em janela com 5 pontos) com limite de detec??o de 6,2 g.kg-1, limite de quantifica??o de 20,7 g.kg-1, precis?o estimada como raiz quadrada da m?dia do erro da previs?o (RMSEP) de 4,8 g.kg-1, seletividade de 0,79 g.kg-1, sensibilidade de 5,04 x 10-3 g kg-1, precis?o de 27,8 g.kg-1 e a raz?o sinal-ru?do foi de 1,04 x 10-3 g.kg-1. Estes resultados sugerem que a espectroscopia NIR e a calibra??o multivariada podem ser efetivamente usadas para determinar o teor de antocianinas em frutos intactos de a?a? e palmiteiro ju?ara. / In this study was evaluated near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIR), and multivariate calibration potential as a rapid method to determinate anthocyanin content in intact fruit (a?a? and palmitero-ju?ara). It?s important to develop new methods to determinate quality parameters in foods, mostly the use of quick techniques, non-invasive and which have reliable methods. The NIR spectroscopy fills these requirements and these have shown as an alternative to conventional quality control analysis in several foods, including, fruit. Currently, analytical methods have been reported to determinate anthocyanin in fruits. However, the NIR spectroscopy is cited rarely to determinate anthocyanin content in a?a? and palmitero-ju?ara. This study could contribute to research that already have performed. Several multivariate calibration techniques, including partial least squares (PLS), interval partial least squares (iPLS), genetic algorithm (AG), successive projections algorithm (SPA), were compared and validated by establishing figures of merit. In this job, 139 fruits were used, 69 were acai and 70 were palmiteiro ju?ara. The potential anthocyanin sources has been quantified using differential pH method, as a reference method. Soon after, the near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectra have been measured, and finally the chemometrics models have been built. Suitable results were obtained with the PLS model (four latent variables and 5- point smoothing) with a detection limit of 6.2 g kg-1, limit of quantification of 20.7 g kg-1, accuracy estimated as root mean square error of prediction of 4.8 g kg-1, mean selectivity of 0.79 g kg-1, sensitivity of 5.04 x10-3 g kg-1, precision of 27,8 g kg-1, and signal-to-noise ratio of 1.04 x10-3 g kg-1. These results suggest NIR spectroscopy and multivariate calibration can effectively be used to determine anthocyanin content in intact a?a? and palmitero-ju?ara fruit.
