In order to assure that the use of cerrado fruits occur in a sustainable way, studies to investigate their characteristics are extremely relevant. In this context, the present study aims to describe some chemical parameters of pequi fruits picked in three municipalities in southwestern Goiás State (Jataí, Rio Verde, and Serranópolis). In each city, two populations of pequi trees - pequizeiros, denominated areas, were selected. In each area, eight trees were selected for the fruit to be picked. The contents of phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, nitrogen, zinc, and ether extract were determined in the samples. The results demonstrate differences between the chemical characteristics studied for the fruits picked in different areas, which does not seem... |

Sugar cane juice containing 12% (w.w -1) of total reducing sugars and 0.0 to 5.0 mmol of nickel L-1, with pH ranging from 3.5 to 6.5, was inoculated with Fleischmanns yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) (10% w.w -1). Six hours after fermentation, the yeasts cellular viability and trehalose content were evaluated. The resulting must was centrifuged and the raw yeast was analyzed by atomic absorption spectroscopy to evaluate the intracellular levels of calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, nickel, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur and zinc. The intracellular levels of iron, magnesium and calcium were affected and the yeasts susceptibility to nickel was enhanced by the decrease in pH. The yeasts growth was not affected by nickel at high pH, but the toxic... |
