1. Resistance of cocoa to Moniliophthora perniciosa – progenitors and progenies selection
ABSTRACT Witches' broom, caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa, is the most important cacao disease in Brazil, and the final objective of this study is increasing the level and durability of resistance to this fungus, through the association of different alleles or genes favorable to the character, for the generation of new cocoa varieties. It was conducted, f

2. Prostatic alterations associated to early weaning and its relation with cocoa powder supplementation. Experimental study in adult wistar rats
ABSTRACT Early weaning can predispose the offspring to greater risk of developing chronic diseases in adulthood. It is believed that the consumption of functional foods is able to prevent these effects. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of maternal and postnatal cocoa powder supplementation on body mass, metabolism, and morphology of the prost

3. Oxalate-rich foods
Abstract The intake of large amounts of the antinutrient oxalate can induce hyperoxaluria, an important risk factor for the development of calcium oxalate stones. The soluble and total oxalate concentrations of plants of the Fabaceae, Convolvulaceae, and Malvaceae families were determined using an HPLC-enzyme-reactor method. Sweet potato is a species of the

4. Mineral Nutrients and Plant-Fungal Interaction in Cocoa Trees (Theobroma cacao L.)
An infection of the fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa in cocoa trees reduces productivity of the plant. In this study, the concentrations of mineral nutrients in healthy leaves and in leaves of vegetative broom of the cocoa plant were determined, and the relationship between the disease and the nutritional composition of the leaves was assessed. The samples w

5. Study on the sensory acceptance and check all that apply of mixed juices in distinct Brazilian regions
Abstract Fruit juices are on the rise, due to the search new mixes, flavors and nutritional value. This research investigated the acceptance and sensory profile of mixed juices. Sixteen (16) mixed juices with caja, umbu, cocoa and mango flavors were studied, using acceptance and check-all-that-apply (CATA) tests in different cities (n = 226). Juices A1 and D

6. Cocoa Agro-Industrial Residue (Theobroma cacao) as Inducer of the Production of Fungal Laccase and Kojic Acid for Application in the Biodegradation of 17-α-Ethinylestradiol
Due to the ability to catalyze the oxidation of several substrates, the enzyme laccase has been used in several applications, among them the bioremediation of emerging pollutants. This work evaluate the capacity of the cocoa agro-industrial residue to induce the production of Pycnoporus sanguineus laccase and to apply the enzymatic extract in the biodegradat

7. Multivariate Analysis: Use of Doehlert Design (DD) for Optimization of a Simple Sample Preparation Procedure for the Determination of Inorganic Constituents in Cocoa Beans Employing Microwave Acid Digestion and ICP OES
This study presents a microwave-assisted procedure for sample preparation of cocoa beans using diluted HNO3 with H2O2 for the determination of Ba, Ca, Cu, K, Mg, Mn, P, S, Sr and Zn by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). Doehlert modified design was used for optimization of experimental condition, and the volume of H2O2 (0, 0.

12. Exposição pré-natal a mofo está associada ao desenvolvimento de dermatite atópicaem neonatos por reação alérgica
Resumo Objetivo A exposição ao mofo no início da vida pode estar associada ao desenvolvimento de dermatite atópica; contudo, os estudos sobre esse vínculo são inconclusivos e faltam evidências dos mecanismos subjacentes. Identificamos a associação entre o momento da exposição ao mofo e o desenvolvimento de dermatite atópica e investigamos os mec
