No. of bitstreams: 1 PriscilaVDMQ_TESE.pdf: 3706825 bytes, checksum: a3b44c4a57772c9356ce81d22bdb9174 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012-03-19 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?fico e Tecnol?gico / The green bean has organoleptic and nutritional characteristics that make it an important food source in tropical regions such as the Northeast of Brazil. It is a cheap source of protein and important for nutrition of rural population contributing significantly in subsistence farming of the families from Brazil s northeast. It is consumed in entire region and together with the dry meat and other products composes the menu of typical restaurants, being characterized as an important product for economy of Northeast. The green bean is consumed freshly harvested and has short cycle, being characterized as a very perishable food, which hampers your market. The drying method is an alternative to increase the lifetime and provide a reduction volume of this product making easier your transportation and storage. However is necessary to search ways of drying which keep the product quality not only from the nutritional standpoint but also organoleptic. Some characteristics may change with the drying process such as the coloring, the rehydration capacity and the grains cooking time. The decrease of drying time or of exposure of the grains to high temperature minimizes the effects related with the product quality loss. Among the techniques used to reduce the drying time and improve some characteristics of the product, stands out the osmotic dehydration, widely used in combined processes such as the pretreatment in drying food. Currently the use of the microwaves has been considered an alternative for drying food. The microwave energy generates heat inside of materials processed and the heating is practically instantaneous, resulting in shorter processing times and product quality higher to that obtained by conventional methods. Considering the importance of the green beans for the Northeast region, the wastefulness of production due to seasonality of the crop and your high perishability, the proposal of this thesis is the study of drying grain by microwaves with and without osmotic pretreatment, focusing on the search of conditions of processes which favor the rehydration of the product preserving your organoleptic characteristics. Based on the analysis of the results of osmotic dehydration and dielectric properties was defined the operating condition to be used in pretreatment of the green bean, with osmotic concentration in saline solution containing 12,5% of sodium chloride, at 40?C for 20 minutes. The drying of green bean by microwave was performed with and without osmotic pretreatment on the optimized condition. The osmotic predehydration favored the additional drying, reducing the process time. The rehydration of dehydrated green bean with and without osmotic pretreatment was accomplished in different temperature conditions and immersion time according to a factorial design 22, with 3 repetitions at the central point. According to results the better condition was obtained with the osmotically pretreated bean and rehydrated at a temperature of 60?C for 90 minutes. Sensory analysis was performed comparing the sample of the green bean in natura and rehydrated in optimized conditions, with and without osmotic pretreatment. All samples showed a good acceptance rate regarding the analyzed attributes (appearance, texture, color, odor and taste), with all values above 70%. Is possible conclude that the drying of green bean by microwave with osmotic pretreatment is feasible both in respect to technical aspects and rehydration rates and sensory quality of the product / O feij?o verde apresenta caracter?sticas organol?pticas e nutricionais que fazem dele uma importante fonte aliment?cia em regi?es de clima tropical como o Nordeste do Brasil. ? uma fonte de prote?na barata e importante para a nutri??o da popula??o rural contribuindo significativamente na agricultura de subsist?ncia das fam?lias nordestinas. ? consumido em toda a regi?o e comp?e junto com a carne de sol e outros produtos o card?pio dos restaurantes t?picos, caracterizando-se assim como um produto importante para a economia da Nordeste. O feij?o verde ? consumido rec?m-colhido e apresenta ciclo curto, sendo caracterizado como um alimento de alta perecibilidade, o que dificulta a sua comercializa??o. A secagem desse produto se caracteriza como uma alternativa para o aumento da vida ?til deste alimento, al?m de proporcionar uma redu??o de volume facilitando seu manuseio no transporte e armazenagem. Todavia necess?rio se faz buscar formas de secagem que preservem a qualidade do produto n?o s? sobre o ponto de vista nutricional como organol?ptico. Dentre as caracter?sticas que se alteram com o processo de secagem, destacam-se a colora??o, a capacidade de reidrata??o e o tempo de cozimento dos gr?os. A diminui??o do tempo de secagem, ou de exposi??o dos gr?os a elevadas temperaturas minimizam os efeitos relacionados com a perda de qualidade do produto. .Dentre as t?cnicas empregadas para minimizar o tempo de secagem e melhorar algumas caracter?sticas do produto, destaca-se a desidrata??o osm?tica, muito utilizada em processos combinados como pr?-tratamento na secagem dos alimentos. Atualmente a utiliza??o do micro-ondas tem sido apontada como uma alternativa para a secagem de alimentos. A energia de micro-ondas gera calor no interior dos materiais processados e o aquecimento ? praticamente instant?neo, o que resulta em tempos de processamento mais curtos e qualidade do produto superior ? obtida pelos m?todos convencionais. Considerando a import?ncia do feij?o verde para a regi?o Nordeste, o desperd?cio da produ??o devido a sazonalidade da safra e sua alta perecibilidade, foi proposto nesta tese o estudo da secagem dos gr?os em micro-ondas com e sem pr?-tratamento osm?tico, tendo como foco principal a busca das condi??es de processo que favore?am a reidrata??o do produto, com preserva??o de suas caracter?sticas organol?pticas. A partir da an?lise dos resultados da desidrata??o osm?tica e propriedades diel?tricas foi definida a condi??o operacional a ser utilizada no pr?-tratamento do feij?o verde, com concentra??o osm?tica em solu??o salina contendo 12,5% de cloreto de s?dio, a 400C por 20 minutos. A secagem do feij?o verde por micro-ondas foi realizada sem e com pr?-tratamento osm?tico na condi??o otimizada. A pr?-desidrata??o osm?tica favoreceu a secagem complementar, reduzindo o tempo de processo. A reidrata??o do feij?o verde desidratado com e sem pr?-tratamento osm?tico foi realizada em diferentes condi??es de temperatura e tempo de imers?o de acordo com um planejamento fatorial 22, com 3 repeti??es no ponto central . De acordo com os resultados a melhor condi??o, foi obtida com o feij?o pr?-tratado osmoticamente e reidratado a uma temperatura de 600C por 90 minutos. Realizou-se a an?lise sensorial comparando-se as amostra de feij?o verde in natura e reidratado nas condi??es otimizadas, com e sem pr?-tratamento osm?tico. Todas as amostras apresentaram um bom ?ndice de aceita??o referente aos atributos analisados (apar?ncia, textura, cor, odor e sabor), estando todos os valores acima de 70%. Conclui-se que a secagem do feij?o verde por micro-ondas com pr?-tratamento osm?tico ? vi?vel, tanto em rela??o aos aspectos t?cnicos como aos ?ndices de reidrata??o e a qualidade sensorial do produto

Impact des fluctuations de l'humidité relative de l'air sur la survie de Listeria monocytogenes : application à l'amélioration de l'hygiène dans les ateliers de production alimentaire / Impact of relative air humidity fluctuations on the survival of Listeria monocytogenes : application to improve hygiene in food processing environment

Zoz, Fiona 13 December 2016 (has links)
Les fluctuations hydriques influencent l'activité et la viabilité des microorganismes. L’humidité relative de l’air est ainsi un paramètre potentiellement efficace pour maîtriser le développement et la persistance de microorganismes pathogènes. Cependant, l’efficacité de ce paramètre reste peu connue par rapport à d’autres facteurs environnementaux comme le pH ou la température. Le séchage est l'étape finale des procédures de nettoyage et de désinfection en industrie agroalimentaire. Cependant, il est aujourd'hui utilisé de façon empirique alors qu'il pourrait permettre d'améliorer la décontamination des surfaces dans les ateliers et diminuer la persistance des microorganismes. Malgré les procédures de nettoyage et de désinfection, la bactérie Listeria monocytogenes est fréquemment retrouvée dans l'industrie agroalimentaire et y persiste pendant de longues périodes. Evaluer et comprendre l'impact des fluctuations hydriques sur la survie de L. monocytogenes afin d'en optimiser la destruction sur une surface, constituent ainsi les principaux objectifs de cette thèse.Dans un premier temps, 30 souches de L. monocytogenes isolées de différents environnements de transformation des aliments et présentant différents sérotypes et niveaux de virulence ont été exposées à un stress hyperosmotique et à un séchage. Cette approche a permis d'analyser les différences de résistance entre les souches et de sélectionner quatre souches présentant différents profils de résistance pour poursuivre les travaux.Afin de définir les conditions de fluctuations hydriques les plus létales pour les souches de L. monocytogenes, différents paramètres ont été étudiés tels que la vitesse de déshydratation, le niveau d’humidité relative, la vitesse de réhydratation, l’application de cycles successifs de déshydratation-réhydratation et le milieu de séchage.Enfin, les mécanismes cellulaires induisant la mort de L. monocytogenes lors des fluctuations hydriques ont été explorés par spectroscopie infrarouge à transformée de Fourier, microscopie à force atomique, cytométrie en flux et par séchage en anaérobiose. Ces différentes méthodes ont permis de révéler qu'un stress mécanique et structural sont majoritairement responsables de la mort de L. monocytogenes.L’ensemble de ce travail démontre que la maîtrise du niveau et des variations de l’humidité relative de l’air est un moyen efficace pour détruire L. monocytogenes et offre de réelles perspectives d’application pour améliorer l’hygiène des ateliers de production alimentaire. / Environmental hydration fluctuations influence microorganism viability and activity. The air relative humidity (RH) is a potentially effective parameter to control the development and the persistence of pathogenic microorganisms. However, efficiency of this parameter remains not well characterized compared to others environmental factors such as pH or temperature. Drying is the final step of cleaning and disinfection processes used in the food industry. However, if this process is empirically used, it could also be used to improve the decontamination of surfaces in premises and reduce the persistence of microorganisms. Despite cleaning and disinfection, Listeria monocytogenes is commonly found in the food industry and persists during long periods. Thus, the main objective of this thesis is to evaluate and understand the impact of hydric fluctuations on L. monocytogenes survival to optimize its destruction on a surface.First, thirty L. monocytogenes strains, isolated from different food processing environment and belonging to different serotypes and levels of virulence, were exposed to hyperosmotic stress and drying process. Differences in resistances among the strains were analyzed and four strains with different resistance to hydric stress were selected to continue this study.To define the most lethal hydric fluctuation conditions for L. monocytogenes strains, various parameters, such as the dehydration kinetic, relative humidity level, the rehydration kinetic, the application of successive dehydration and rehydration cycles and drying medium, have been studied.Finally, cellular mechanisms inducing the cell death during hydric fluctuations were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and flow cytometry and anaerobic drying. These different methods revealed that mechanical and structural stresses are primarily responsible for the death of L. monocytogenes.This work demonstrates that the control of RH level and variation is an effective means for the destruction of L. monocytogenes and offers real perspectives to improve hygiene in food production premises.

Réhydratation des protéines laitières dans un milieu complexe : influence de l'état d'hydratation sur les propriétés texturales des gels acides / Dairy proteins powders rehydration into a complex media : effects of rehydration state on textural properties of acid milk gels

Karam, Marie-Céleste 13 September 2013 (has links)
L'objectif de la thèse a été d'élucider le processus de réhydratation des caséines micellaires et des protéines solubles dans un milieu complexe et opaque : le lait. L'influence de l'état d'hydratation de ces ingrédients laitiers en fonction du temps (5, 120, 180, 240, 300, 480, 900 et 1440 min de réhydratation) sur les propriétés rhéologiques, texturales, physiques ainsi que la microstructure des gels laitiers acides a également été étudiée. Il en résulte que le processus de réhydratation des caséines micellaires diffère de celui des protéines solubles, et est extrêmement long avec trois étapes : une étape de mouillage des particules, suivie d'une étape de gonflement caractérisée par une augmentation de la taille des particules et enfin une étape de dispersion marquée par la diminution de la taille des particules. La réhydratation des protéines solubles est caractérisée par une grande rapidité, avec deux phases : le mouillage et la phase de dispersion (superposée). D'autre part, l'allongement de la durée de réhydratation des caséines micellaires est associé à une augmentation du point de gélification ainsi qu'à une nette amélioration des propriétés physiques, texturales et rhéologiques des gels : augmentation de leur fermeté et de leur force, diminution de la synérèse et de la formation de grumeaux. La durée de réhydratation des protéines solubles n'a pas d'influence sur ces paramètres. En revanche, leur dénaturation (par chauffage à sec) est associée à une dégradation des propriétés texturales des gels acides. Finalement, il s'avère que les gels acides formulés à partir des protéines solubles sont de meilleure qualité texturale (à l'exception de la formation de grumeaux) que ceux préparés à partir des caséines micellaires / The main objectives of this work were to elucidate the rehydration mechanism of the two major milk proteins (micellar casein and whey protein) into a complex and opaque medium such as milk and to assess the influence of hydration state (defined as a function of rehydration length after 5,120,180,240,300, 480, 900 and 1440 minutes of rehydration) on the rheological, textural, physical properties and microstructure of the obtained acid milk gels. Whereas, micellar casein presented a long rehydration process into milk characterized by three stages: a wetting, swelling and dispersion phase, whey protein displayed a quick rehydration process characterized by an overlapping of wetting and dispersion phase. Furthermore, an extended rehydration time of micellar casein powder into the milk base was associated with a postponed onset of gelation and enhanced physical, textural as well as rheological properties of the obtained acid milk gels characterized by increases in gel firmness, strength, and decreases in syneresis susceptibility and grains formation. In contrast, acid milk gels prepared with whey protein powder exhibited comparable overall textural properties regardless the different rehydration times. Nevertheless, denaturation of whey protein powder (by dry heating) was associated with a deterioration of the textural properties of the acid milk gels. Finally, acid gels prepared with whey proteins displayed better overall textural quality than those prepared with micellar casein (except for grains formation)

Synthèse, caractérisation et étude du comportement à la déshydratation par diffraction des rayon X sur monocristal et poudre, de quelques composés supramoléculaires à base de métallo-tectons ioniques / Synthesis, Characterization and Study of Behavior with Single Crystal and Powder X-rays Diffraction Analysis during the Dehydration Process of some Supramolecular Compounds built with Ionic Metallo-tectons

Ce travail réalisé dans le cadre de l’initiative africaine de l’IUCr porte sur l’étude structurale par diffraction des rayons X de quelques architectures élaborées par association, via des interactions faibles, des anions {[M(C2O4)3]3-,M = Cr, Fe} et des cations complexes à base de la 2-picolylamine (amp) métaux de transition (Co2+, Cu2+ et Mn2+). L’architecture à base de l’ion Co2+ est bidimensionnelle et présente des feuillets ondulés constitués de chaines bimétalliques de chiralité différente où les deux ions complexes ([Cr(C2O4)3]3- et [Co(amp)3]3+ ) sont connectés par des liaisons hydrogène. Ces feuillets hébergent des molécules d’eau qui forment des clusters dodécamèriques aux caractéristiques nouvelles. Le composé déshydraté se réhydrate rapidement dans l’air ambiant et les deux états possèdent des couleurs différentes. Plusieurs cycles de déshydratation-réhydratation n’altèrent pas la qualité cristalline du composé. L’architecture à base des ions Cu2+ possède également des feuillets mais présente une ondulation plus forte que celle de l’architecture au cobalt. Ces couches sont constituées de chaines formées de cations dimériques [Cu2(amp)4Cl]3+ et d’anions {[M(C2O4)3]3-,M = Cr, Fe}. Les deux composés sont iso-structuraux et leur architecture présente des canaux monodimensionnels qui contiennent des molécules d’eau qui forment des clusters hexamèriques. Le composé subit des transitions de phase entre la basse température (100K) et la température de déshydratation (341K) avec une perte de la symétrie. Le composé se réhydrate plus difficilement que celui à base de l’ion cobalt(III). L’ion Mn2+ ne donne pas l’architecture escomptée mais un polymère de coordination nouveau / This work, realized under the IUCr initiative, framework involves the structural study via X-ray diffraction, of some heteromolecular architectures formed by the association through non-covalent bonds, between the tris (oxalato) chromate (III) and tris (oxalato) ferrate (III) anions {[M(C2O4)3]3-, M = Cr, Fe} and the cationic complex of the 2-picolylamine (amp) and transition metal (Co2 +, Cu2 + and Mn2 +). Co2 + ion builds two-dimensional corrugated layers made of bimetallic chiral chains where the two different complex ions ([Cr(C2O4)3]3- and [Co(amp)3]3 +) are connected by hydrogen bonds. These layers, connected by weak hydrogen interactions, host between them, water molecules which build dodecameric clusters having new characteristics. The dehydrated compound has different structure and color and is able to quickly reabsorb water molecules from surrounding to regenerate the initial compound despite that it has no pores. Several cycles of this process do not seriously affect the crystalline quality of this compound. The compound obtained with the Cu2 + ion also has a two-dimensional framework. Their layers are formed between the dimeric cation [Cu2 (amp) 4Cl]3 + and the anion {[M(C2O4)3]3-,M = Cr, Fe}. Both compounds are iso-structural; their frameworks are formed via π - - - π interactions and build 1D channels which contain water molecules forming hexameric clusters. The compound undergoes a phase transition between 100 K and the dehydration temperature (341K). During this dehydration, a loss of symmetry of the compound is recorded and rehydration process is more difficult than for cobalt(III)-framework. The use of Mn2+ ions does not give the expected architecture but a new coordination polymer
