Abstract

The volume tells us about the close relationship between heaven and earth, between the extraordinary and the everyday, between faith and science, highlighted by the countless episodes of piety that allow us to retrace history and grasp its transformations, starting from the lived life of thousands of protagonists. In fact, the painted votive tablets prove to be an exceptional vector for reproducing and transmitting the values of the community: family, homeland, work, care for animals and the territory, use of means of transport and old and new technologies. In the ex-voto the cycles of life and seasons unfold and the impact on them of small and large natural or social disasters that recur over time with impressive regularity, unfortunately we find ourselves unprepared each time. In dealing with risks and calamities of all kinds, ex-votos women and men look upwards - with great dignity - asking them to survive, persist and replicate themselves as biological entities and cultural entities. The long sequence of events narrated in the ex-votos constitutes a sort of DNA of our nation, indispensable for shaping the country's future. Also for this reason, painted ex-votos must be detected, filed, preserved, protected, valued, studied and brought to the attention of the general public, as this volume proposes.

Abstract

Xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) are functional oligosaccharides obtained from xylan present in lignocellulosic material. This study investigated the effects of replacing pork fat with functional xylo-oligosaccharide gel emulsion (XGE) on the chemical and physical structure of developed meat products. The product's centesimal composition, energy value, pH, color parameters, and microstructure were analyzed. The results showed that replacing pork fat with XGE reduced the total lipid content by approximately 30%, and provided a desirable lipidic profile with reduced thrombogenicity and atherogenicity indices. A microstructure analysis showed that products with partial and full pork fat replacement presented a more compact structure than the control formulation. Thus, XGE is a viable alternative to replace pork fat in meat products since it maintains similar physicochemical and technological properties to the original products and contributes to the development of healthier meat products with prebiotic properties, lower fat content, and, consequently, lower energetic value.

Abstract

Agricultural byproducts, often discarded, possess significant nutritional value and technological potential. This study investigates the efficacy of ethanolic‐water extracts from avocado (Persea americana Mill.) byproducts, obtained with minimal solvent use through optimized extraction, in enhancing the stability of mechanically separated meat‐tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) burgers, a high‐fat Amazonian fish. 2000 ppm of avocado seed and peel extract were applied in shelf‐life tests conducted under refrigeration and freezing conditions to evaluate the stability of the burgers. The results demonstrated that the bioactive compounds from avocado byproducts resulted in lower TBARS values, indicating strong antioxidant properties, reduced formation of volatile nitrogen compounds, and color maintenance than sodium erythorbate. Monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were preserved using bioactive ethanolic‐water extracts, and the protein content was improved compared to the control, enhancing nutritional quality. This study highlights the potential of using agri‐food byproducts, especially for application in highly perishable items such as fish, promoting the development of clean label products, thus supporting a more efficient and environmentally friendly food industry focusing on the circular economy.

Abstract

Obesity and insulin resistance constitute risk factors for the development of tauopathies and other neurodegenerative diseases. (Poly)phenol compounds are under study for its role in protecting effects against neural injuries and degeneration. Here, we investigated the effect of Amazonian açai pulp (AP) intake in the prevention of memory and cognitive impairment resulting from a high-fat diet intake in mice. Obesity and insulin resistance was induced with a high-fat diet and supplemented with 2% AP to investigate peripheral insulin resistance, recognition memory and tau protein stability via AKT/GSK3-β signaling pathway. The consumption of AP for 70 days improved peripheral insulin sensitivity and phosphorylation of AKT/GSK3-β in mice hippocampi. The animals fed high-fat diets supplemented with AP showed better performance in the novel object recognition test (NOR) in comparison to the H group. Catalase activity and reduced glutathione (GSH) values were improved in the treated mice. These results suggest that the supplementation of AP can attenuate the effects of high-fat diet consumption in peripheral insulin resistance and improve cognitive behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The production of ethyl esters by alcoholysis is an alternative for splitting triacylglycerols due to the possibility of using low temperatures, which results in oxidative protection of the polyunsaturated fatty acids. Ethyl esters produced under mild conditions of temperature could be used as substrate for obtaining structured lipids. The reaction parameters of production of ethyl esters from fish oil with high content of omega-3 fatty acids by alcoholysis were optimized using response surface methodology. An experimental design (2³) (with levels +1 and -1, six axial points with levels -alpha and +alpha and three central points) was applied. The variables investigated were concentration of catalyst, amount of ethyl alcohol and temperature. Ethyl ester conversion was monitored by high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) and the best result obtained was 95% conversion rate. The optimal conditions were 40 degreesC, 1% of NaOH and 36% of ethanol.
