RESUMOA carne moída é um alimento bastante consumido pelo seu baixo custo, porém representa um grande risco de contaminação quando sua obtenção está aliada a práticas higiênico-sanitárias inadequadas. Diante disso, objetivou-se avaliar a qualidade microbiológica desse produto. Foram adquiridas amostras de 3 estabelecimentos e realizadas análises de pesquisa de Salmonella sp., contagem de

This work aimed to develop and characterize edible films made with cassava starch and buriti oil in a factorial scheme to verify the effect of the interaction between these factors on the physical properties. The experiment was developed in an entirely randomized design in a 2 × 3 factorial scheme. They were prepared with six different formulations evaluating thickness, water solubility, moisture, water activity, chromaticiy (C*), total color difference (ΔE*), opacity and light transmittance, tensile strength and elongation at break, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. There were effects of each factor on the film properties as well as interaction effects. It was found that with the increase in the concentration of buriti oil, there was a decrease in water solubility, tensile strength, and elongation at break. Higher concentrations of cassava starch increased the thickness and tensile strength. On the other hand, it decreased the moisture content, water solubility, and elongation at break. Transparency, C*, and ΔE* were influenced by the interaction effect between the factors. On the other hand, films with higher oil content showed greater thermal degradation. We conclude that films made with 6% cassava starch and 1% buriti oil present better mechanical and thermal properties with the possibility of application in the food industry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
