Resumo: Strawberries were submitted to freezing after pre-treatments with hydrocolloid and calcium salts (pectin and calcium chloride) at different concentrations, in the attempt to establish a correlation of the effects of these substances and their processing, on the physical and microstructural characteristics of fruits after thawing. Strawberry halves were submitted to impregnation with controlled vacuum pressure of 84.4, 50.5 and 16.6 kPa; comprising pectin at concentrations of 0, 1.5 and 3%; with the addition of calcium chloride at concentrations of 0, 3 and 6%; and glucose at 20%, for 4 hours. Measurements were made of the total soluble solid contents, cellular fluid loss, texture and viscosity of the solution, before and after the freezing/thawing. Images of the tissue cuts during the freezing, in function of time, were taken in an optic microscope coupled to a cold-stage and controlled temperature system, where the reduction of the cellular area was quantified using an image analyzing software. The pectin concentration had an influence on and demonstrated a potential for protection of the frozen tissue samples. The photomicrographs showed that the loss of cellular fluid occurs during the growth of ice formed in the intercellular spaces and it is retarded through treatments with high pectin concentrations.

Metades de morangos foram submetidas à impregnação com pressão de vácuo controlada de 84,4, 50,5 e 16,6 kPa constituídos de pectina em concentrações de 0, 1,5, e 3% , adicionados de cloreto de cálcio em concentrações de 0, 3, e 6% e glicose 20%, durante 4 horas. Foram feitas medidas do teor de sólidos solúveis totais, perdas de fluido celular, textura e viscosidade da solução antes e após o congelamento/descongelamento. Foram feitas imagens de cortes dos tecidos durante o congelamento em função do tempo em microscópio ótico acoplado a um sistema cold-stage e temperatura controlada em que a redução da área celular foi quantificada utilizando um software analisador de imagens. A concentração de pectina teve influência e demonstrou potencial para a proteção do tecido de amostras congeladas. As fotomicrografias mostraram que a perda de fluido celular ocorre durante o crescimento de gelo formado nos espaços intercelulares, sendo retardada em tratamentos com altas concentrações de pectina.Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos2015-03-13T13:43:55Z2015-03-13T13:43:55Z2009-10-31info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfRENO, M.
