Resumo: | Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.), a fruit of the cocoa tree, is the main ingredient present in the composition of chocolate. However, for its production, the seeds are the only part used, making the pulp of this fruit an agro-industrial residue. Basically, this species can be categorized into three varieties, Forastero, Criollo and Trinitário, each one being responsible for unique characteristics that end up influencing the final product after processing. Many studies have obtained products from this pulp, such as jellies, fine drinks and even ice cream. Based on these applications of cocoa pulp, this study aimed to carry out the physicochemical characterization of cocoa pulp and to evaluate its potential for the production of potentially probiotic beverages. Initially, the characterization of the pulp was carried out through the analysis of pH, titratable acidity (ATT), soluble solids content (SST), reducing sugars (AR) and total reducing sugars (ART). During the analysis, it could be noticed that, with the exception of the soluble solids content, all parameters were within the established by current legislation and in accordance with the data obtained from the literature review. After the literature review and the analysis of the obtained data, it was possible to verify that the cocoa pulp has enormous potential to be applied in processes intended to obtain potentially probiotic beverages. The soluble solids content and the concentration of sugars have the greatest impact on the process of obtaining this drink, considering that they are the most consumed components during the process. |

Sin embargo, para su producción solo se utilizan las semillas, por lo que la pulpa de esta fruta es un residuo agroindustrial. Básicamente, esta especie se puede dividir en tres variedades, Forastero, Criollo y Trinitário, cada una responsable de unas características únicas que acaban influyendo en el producto final tras su elaboración. Son muchos los estudios que reportan algunos productos de esta pulpa, como jaleas, refrescos e incluso helados. Con base en estas aplicaciones de la pulpa de cacao, el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo realizar la caracterización físico-química de la pulpa de cacao y evaluar su potencial para la producción de bebidas potencialmente probióticas. Inicialmente, la caracterización de la pulpa se realizó mediante el análisis de pH, acidez titulable (TT), contenido de sólidos solubles (SST), azúcares reductores (AR) y azúcares reductores totales (ART). Durante el análisis, se encontró que, a excepción del contenido de sólidos solubles, todos los parámetros se encontraban dentro de lo establecido por la legislación vigente y de acuerdo con los datos obtenidos de la revisión de la literatura. Luego de un relevamiento bibliográfico y análisis de los datos obtenidos, se pudo constatar que la pulpa de cacao tiene un enorme potencial para ser aplicada en procesos de obtención de bebidas potencialmente probióticas. El contenido de sólidos solubles y la concentración de azúcares tienen un mayor impacto en los procesos de obtención de esta bebida, considerando que son los componentes más consumidos durante el proceso.O cacau (Theobroma cacao L.), fruto do cacaueiro, é o principal ingrediente presente na composição do chocolate. Porém para a sua produção, é utilizado somente as sementes, tornando a polpa deste fruto um resíduo agroindustrial. Há muitos estudos que relataram alguns produtos a partir dessa polpa, como geleias, bebidas finas e até mesmo sorvetes. Baseado nessas aplicações da polpa do cacau, o presente estudo teve por objetivo realizar a caracterização físico-química da polpa do cacau, e avaliar seu potencial para a produção de bebidas potencialmente probióticas. Inicialmente foi realizada a caracterização da polpa, através da análise do pH, acidez titulável (ATT), teor de sólidos solúveis (SST), açúcares redutores (AR) e açúcares redutores totais (ART). Durante a análise, verificou-se que, com exceção do teor de sólidos solúveis, todos os parâmetros estavam dentro do estabelecido pela legislação vigente e de acordo com os dados obtidos a partir da revisão de literatura. Após uma revisão sistemática e a análise dos dados obtidos, foi possível verificar que a polpa do cacau possui enorme potencial para ser aplicada em processos de obtenção de bebidas potencialmente probióticas. O teor de sólidos solúveis e a concentração de açúcares geram maior impacto nos processos de obtenção dessa bebida, tendo em vista que são os componentes de maior consumo durante o processo.
