The possibility of obtaining a carmine or pink color on ordinary cooked ham by applying natural dyes from three plant species, namely red radish (Raphanus sativus L.), hibiscus (Roselle sabdariffa L.) and red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.), was investigated. The extracts were evaluated for the stability at physical-chemical parameters and subjected to cytotoxicity assays in the gastric cell line AGS Encapsulation of the extracts in soybean lecithin liposomes and maltodextrin microcapsules was performed. Lyophilized extracts before and after encapsulation in maltodextrin were applied in the formulation of ordinary cooked ham and used in a pilot scale of production. The color of cooked ham samples from different assays was evaluated visually and by colorimetry. The results suggest that the coloration of ordinary cooked ham obtained with extracts of red beetroot is very promising for future applications in this type of meat product.

Orange Fruit

Laranjas da variedade Pêra, previamente armazenadas durante três dias, com e sem etileno foram pulverizadas com Imazalil, Tiabendazol e a mistura de ambos, formulados ou não com cera. Em seguida, foram mantidas durante 25 dias a 4ºC ± 2ºC/90% ± 5% de umidade relativa, sendo avaliados parâmetros de qualidade da laranja, antes e ao final do armazenamento. Com exceção do atributo cor não ocorreram diferenças estatisticamente significativas nos demais parâmetros químicos e físico-químicos, independente da exposição ao etileno. O etileno foi eficiente no desverdecimento de laranjas, sem comprometer seus atributos de qualidade, e o tratamento posterior com cera contribuiu para manter inalterado o padrão de cor obtido. EVALUATION OF THE QUALITY OF PÊRA ORANGE FRUIT AFTER STORAGE IN ETHYLENE Abstract Oranges of the variety Pêra previously stored during three days with and without ethylene were sprayed with Imazalil, Thiabendazole and a mixture of both fungicides, formulated with and without wax. Following this treatment the fruits were stored during 25 days at 4ºC ± 2ºC / 90% ± 5% of relative humidity, parameters related to orange quality were evaluated before and after the storage period. With exception of the attribute color, no significative statistically differences were observed in the chemical and physical-chemical parameters, independent of the exposure to ethylene. The ethylene was effective for the degreening of orange with no action on the quality parameters. The further treatment with wax contributed to maintain the pattern of colour unchanged.

The Itajaí-Mirim River located in Santa Catarina, in the region of the low estuary of the Itajaí-Açu River, is the place where most of the water supplied for consumption is consumed by the Municipalities of Itajaí and Navegantes, the São Roque catchment station. This study aims to analyze the water quality in the Itajaí-Mirim river before and after the implantation of the dam in the Itajaí-Mirim river, based on a monitoring of physical-chemical parameters. The collections described in this report were carried out at six sample points, from January to December 2007, with the purpose of physically and chemically characterizing the environment in the rectified channel and, also, in the original bed of Itajaí-Mirim. The parameters measured in situ serve to assess the general state of water quality at the time of sampling. The main parameters measured, four of them deserve special attention (pH, Turbidity, Dissolved Oxygen and Salinity) and the correlated environmental parameters were flow rate and precipitation. In general, depending on the main results obtained, the analyzed waters can be classified in Class 2 of fresh waters, according to the limit values of CONAMA Resolution No. 357/05, and for the sampled period, precipitation and flow influenced the water quality.

The objective of the research was to reduce the salinity of the waters of San Pedro, Lurín, Peru. The proposed method was a pre-treatment with Micro-Nanobubbles (MNBs) of air at different times and a post-treatment with graphene at different concentrations, this was called Grafenano. The first stage was to first pass the samples collected by the MNBs generator, which allowed to reduce the physical and chemical parameters; The second stage consisted of filtering the water treated with MNBs using graphene in three proportions 5 g, 10 g and 15 g, which allowed to reduce the concentration of dissolved salts. The salinity of the seawater was determined as well as the physical-chemical parameters before and after the treatment. The air micronabubbles and graphene were characterized. The results obtained were: removal of Turbidity in 96% (from 27.57 NTU to 1.06 NTU), conductivity in 65% (from 49.01 mS/cm to 17.04 mS/cm), of BOD5 in 70% (from 2.42 mg/L to 0.72 mg/L) and a salt removal of 47% (from 34.46 g/L to 18.41 g/L).

Further Development

The issue of strong flux pinning is crucial to the further development of high critical current density Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BSCCO) superconductors in conductor-like applications, yet the pinning mechanisms are still much debated. Anomalous peaks in the M-H (magnetization vs. magnetic field) loops are commonly observed in Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy (Bi-2212) single crystals. Oxygen vacancies may be effective flux pinning centers in BSCCO, as has been found in YBCO. However, it has also been proposed that basal-plane dislocation networks also act as effective pinning centers. Yang et al. proposed that the characteristic scale of the basal-plane dislocation networksmay strongly depend on oxygen content and the anomalous peak in the M-H loop at ˜20-30K may be due tothe flux pinning of decoupled two-dimensional pancake vortices by the dislocation networks. In light of this, we have performed an insitu observation on the dislocation networks precisely at the same region before and after annealing in air, vacuumand oxygen, in order to verify whether the dislocation networks change with varying oxygen content Inall cases, we have not found any noticeable changes in dislocation structure, regardless of the drastic changes in Tc and the anomalous magnetization. Therefore, it does not appear that the anomalous peak in the M-H loops is controlled by the basal-plane dislocation networks.

Abstract. The stability of B12 vitamers is affected by interaction with other water-soluble vitamins, UV light, heat, and pH. This study compared the degradation losses in cyanocobalamin, hydroxocobalamin and methylcobalamin due to the physicochemical exposure before and after the addition of sorbitol. The degradation losses of cyanocobalamin in the presence of increasing concentrations of thiamin and niacin ranged between 6%-13% and added sorbitol significantly prevented the loss of cyanocobalamin (p<0.05). Hydroxocobalamin and methylcobalamin exhibited degradation losses ranging from 24%–26% and 48%–76%, respectively; added sorbitol significantly minimised the loss to 10% and 20%, respectively (p < 0.05). Methylcobalamin was the most susceptible to degradation when co-existing with ascorbic acid, followed by hydroxocobalamin and cyanocobalamin. The presence of ascorbic acid caused the greatest degradation loss in methylcobalamin (70%-76%), which was minimised to 16% with added sorbitol (p < 0.05). Heat exposure (100 °C, 60 minutes) caused a greater loss of cyanocobalamin (38%) than UV exposure (4%). However, degradation losses in hydroxocobalamin and methylcobalamin due to UV and heat exposures were comparable (>30%). At pH 3, methylcobalamin was the most unstable showing 79% degradation loss, which was down to 12% after sorbitol was added (p < 0.05). The losses of cyanocobalamin at pH 3 and pH 9 (~15%) were prevented by adding sorbitol. Addition of sorbitol to hydroxocobalamin at pH 3 and pH 9 reduced the loss by only 6%. The results showed that cyanocobalamin was the most stable, followed by hydroxocobalamin and methylcobalamin. Added sorbitol was sufficient to significantly enhance the stability of cobalamins against degradative agents and conditions.

Combined sewage coliform bacteria are important as indicators of pathogenic microorganisms and of their possible discharge into the environment. Whilst specifying limits for viruses, most legislation recognises the difficulty of enumerating such organisms and also prescribes limits for coliforms. Despite the importance of these organisms, little is known about their numbers and behaviour in sewerage systems. A data collection programme is described which has monitored dry and wet weather sewage coliform bacteria and also sediment bacteria. These data are used to review recent UK recommendations for assessing bacteria numbers in storm discharges. It is concluded that relationships between bacteria numbers and other physical/chemical parameters may be developed during DWF, but are seasonally and catchment dependent. Extension of DWF measurements to predict storm bacteria may be possible with more data.
