Item Efeito da banana da Terra verde e do albedo do maracujá sobre o perfil lipídico de ratos(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2011-04-07) BARBOSA, Eloiza Helena Carrijo; NAVES, Maria Margareth Veloso; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6563181057140270; ASQUIERI, Eduardo Ramirez; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0488056148950480Were prepared meal green plantain and albedo of passion for the development of this work. After determining the chemical composition of the meal there was a biological test aimed to evaluate the effects of soluble fiber present in the flour of passion fruit albedo and resistant starch of the flour of green plantain, and the mixture of the meal on the levels lipid levels of hypercholesterolemic rats. For testing we used 40 male Wistar rats were divided into five groups of eight rats each. Four supplemented diets were prepared with high concentration of soluble fiber and resistant starch from the flour of passion fruit peel and green plantain respectively and a standard diet. The experimental groups were divided into Banana - 10% of resistant starch and 5% cellulose, Passion Fruit - 10% soluble fiber and 5% cellulose, Mix - 5% resistant starch, 5% cellulose and 5% soluble fiber , Cellulose - 15% cellulose and Standard. The Banana group had a lower intake of diet if differing from other groups. The fecal weight was higher in groups Passion Fruit, pulp and mix. The results show the potential beneficial effect of soluble fiber intake in the control of hypercholesterolemia and soluble and insoluble fiber on intestinal transit. Resistant starch from the green plantain results were not significant on the serum lipid profile of rats. It follows therefore that the albedo of the flour mixture of flour and passion of passion with the albedo of green plantain modulated so as to reduce the serum lipid profile in rats fed a hypercholesterolemic diet, this was probably due to the presence Soluble fiber in both diets since the isolation of the diet that contained only resistant starch from the flour of green plantain not influence significantly the lipid profile of rats.Item Extrato aquoso de yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) desidratado por atomização(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2012-02-16) NISHI, Adriana Candida Faustino; CONCEIÇÃO, Edemilson Cardoso da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7193007113950510; ASQUIERI, Eduardo Ramirez; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0488056148950480Yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) is a tuberous root native to the Andean region, considered a functional food due to the presence of bioactive components that contribute to the balance of the intestinal microbiota. To incorporate these compounds into the diet of the population, the development of dry extract standardized as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and phenolic compounds (CF) was proposed, using the spray drying technique. To obtain yacon dry extracts, roots were characterized, and subsequently, an aqueous extract was prepared through the grinding and filtering technique. Then, a study on the drying process was conducted in order to assess the effects of the addition of different adjuvants (aerosil, maltodextrin and pregelatinized starch) on the final concentration of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and phenolic compounds (PC) in the dry matter. The study was based on twolevel factorial design with three focal points, using adjuvant concentration (20, 50% w / w) and feeding flow rate (2, 6 mL / min) as factors. The best combination of the drying parameters was determined by considering the effects of independent variables (adjuvant concentration and feeding flow rate) on the FOS and PC contents in the dry extracts. In the root characterization, the following contents on a dry basis were found: moisture 9.29 ± 0.085; ash 3.33 ± 0.07, protein 4.29 ± 0.173, lipids 0.80 ± 0.0359, total carbohydrates 81.49 ± 4.18, total fructose 56.47 ± 0.97, reducing sugars 24.05 ± 0.13 and FOS 32.43 ± 0.971. The fresh aqueous extract showed FOS 33.47 (% w / w) and PC 0.44 (% w / w) with better antioxidant activity compared to BHT (2,6-Di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol). The aqueous extract concentrated in a rotary evaporator showed density 1.04 ± 0.002, viscosity 4.34 ± 0.056, and total solids 10.67 ± 0.051. In general, the dried extracts obtained with aerosil, maltodextrin and pregelatinized starch showed FOS contents from 27.20 to 32.4, 24.25 to 31.3 and 23.54 to 35.64 (% w / w ), respectively, and PC from 0.267 to 0.320, 0.319 to 0.399 and 0.407 to 0.425 (% w / w), respectively. The statistical analysis for the three types of adjuvants and the effects of independent variables on the response variables (FOS and PC) showed that the dried extracts were influenced in different ways. Aerosil: Analysis of variance for the linear model showed that this model was not significant, F equal to 2.44 in the response FOS content. PC was influenced by X2, F 29.10 and r2 0.8534. Maltodextrin: The FOS content was influenced by X1, F 13, and r2 0.7222. PC was influenced by X2, F 9.70 and r2 0.6599. Pregelatinized starch: The linear model did not describe the experimental data for the FOS content. The surface response of the PC content in function of X1 and X2 showed a trend to increase the PC content by reducing the adjuvant concentration and increasing the feeding flow rate. Moisture content of less than 5% in all the extracts indicates that the configuration of the equipment variables was correctly set. The yield was affected by constraints of the technique to extracts rich in sugars and with low molecular weight, ranging from 10 to 55%, which lowest results were found for extracts dried with starch. The images of the microstructure of extracts dried with aerosil resulted in spherical particles with diameter between 0.5 and 1.0 μm, while maintaining the appearance of fine and loose powder. Extracts dried with maltodextrin and pregelatinized starch tended to form clusters.Item Efeito da farinha da batata yacon (Smallanthus Sonchifolius) sobre o perfil glicêmico de ratos(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2011-04-08) ROSA, Lorena Pereira de Souza; SILVA, Maria Sebastiana; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1329422634395496; ASQUIERI, Eduardo Ramirez; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0488056148950480The morbidity and mortality profile of the Brazilian population has changed recently in light of the increasing prevalence of chronic noncommunicable diseases. Of particular importance among these diseases is diabetes, a multiple-etiology disease characterized by insulin deficiency or decreased insulin production, or both. A major treatment goal is glycemic control, which requires medications that are expensive and have side effects. As a result, the demand for functional foods to complement this treatment is increasing. Among these foods is the yacon potato. To confirm its antidiabetic activity, glycemic profile studies in animals and humans have been carried out. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of yacon potato (Smallanthus sonchifolius) flour on glycemic control in nondiabetic rats and rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Flour was prepared from vacon potato pulp and later a biological assay was carried out. Yacon potato flour was able to lower mean glycemia in diabetic rats, which can be explained by the FOS reserve. Animals treated with a FOS diet also had reduced blood glucose levels, confirming the ability of these fructans to control glycemia. The diabetes mellitus induction methodology proved effective, which validated the induction protocol developed. These results suggest that long-term studies with the diabetes model can best be assessed in relation to glycemic control, since there was better control starting in the third week of experiment.
