Avaliação Da Qualidade Do Feijão Preto

Abstract

Avaliação da qualidade do feijão preto Evaluation of the quality of black bean Resumo Feijão comum ou anão, grão proveniente da espécie Phaseolus vulgaris L., é fonte rica de nutrientes e provê quantidades significativas de proteínas, calorias, ácidos graxos e fibra alimentar. Por ser, dentre a família das leguminosas, a principal fonte proteica consumida pela população brasileira, o controle da qualidade por meio de análise física e físico-química em sistemas de alimentação coletiva pode ser uma ferramenta prática na avaliação da qualidade do feijão. Desta forma, este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a qualidade do feijão comum, classe preto, tipo 1. As amostras foram analisadas por meio da classificação, pH, umidade, volume, densidade, tempo de maceração, tempo de cozimento com e sem maceração, absorção de água e peso das cascas dos grãos. O resultado da classificação mostrou que três amostras são do tipo 2 e portanto não podem ser comercializadas como tipo 1. Na análise física, houve diferença significativa entre as amostras no aumento de volume e na densidade, o que sugere o emprego dessas ferramentas no controle da qualidade do feijão comum em um sistema de alimentação coletiva.

Bioelectrical Impedance in Premature Newborns and Its Relationship with Diet Therapy in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

“…The consequences are well known and have a great impact on the survival of these babies, namely the prolonged use of alternative feeding routes, including total parenteral nutrition and its related risks, as well as longer hospital stays and nutritional failure [3]. Although this is a common problem, the growth of preterm infants has been monitored through anthropometric measurements since the 18th century [4]. Additionally, body composition measurements are not part of their routine care, although it is known that they can optimize nutrition and help promote better neonatal growth and development [1].…”

Growth and yield of black bean cultivar after successive monocultivation

“…Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are highlighted in Brazilian agriculture as an essential food, being the most consumed legume by the population. It is the primary food source of plant protein because it satisfactorily replaces some animal-based foods, mainly due to its lower cost and its high protein content, in addition to calories and dietary fiber (Ferreira & Nalepa, 2013).…”

Comparison of international height and BMI-for-age growth references and their correlation with adiposity in Brazilian schoolchildren

“…Height-for-age and BMI-for-age growth charts are the most used tools to assess the nutritional status of children and adolescents (10,11) . The height-for-age growth chart shows the linear growth trajectory, which is essential for detecting stunting, while the BMI-for-age growth chart identifies underweight, overweight and obesity conditions (10,12) .…”

“…The BMI growth charts from these references, although do not directly measure adiposity, they are considered highly sensitive to detect overweight and obesity, showing a strong positive correlation with body fat (11,16,18,20) . Moreover, they have been essential for assessing nutritional status at the population level, although there is no consensus on which one is the most appropriate for international use, especially in children over five years old (10,11) .…”

“…The BMI growth charts from these references, although do not directly measure adiposity, they are considered highly sensitive to detect overweight and obesity, showing a strong positive correlation with body fat (11,16,18,20) . Moreover, they have been essential for assessing nutritional status at the population level, although there is no consensus on which one is the most appropriate for international use, especially in children over five years old (10,11) . Therefore, this study aimed to compare the nutritional status classified by the WHO (2007) (16) , IOTF (2012) (18) and MULT (2023) (13,14) height and BMI references and verify their diagnostic accuracy in detecting obesity based on body adiposity in Brazilian schoolchildren.…”
