Respiratory rate and ethylene production of whole and minimally processed beet roots submitted to ethylene and bioregulators treatments
Verificou-se o efeito do etileno e de biorreguladores sobre a atividade respiratória e a síntese de etileno em beterrabas minimamente processadas e inteiras. Para o processamento mínimo, as raízes foram selecionadas quanto à firmeza, cor e tamanho, descascadas, sanificadas, sendo em seguida cortadas em fatias (2 mm de espessura), enxaguadas e centrifugadas. Os tratamentos aplicados foram: etileno (1000 µL L-1), 1-metilciclopropeno (300 nL L-1) e ácido salicílico (500 mg L-1). Após os tratamentos, as beterrabas foram embaladas e armazenadas a 5±1ºC e 85±5% UR durante 10 dias. Observou-se que o ácido salicílico promoveu a diminuição da atividade respiratória do produto minimamente processado durante o armazenamento. Além disso, verificou-se que a resposta fisiológica de beterraba minimamente processada é diferente de beterraba inteira, o que foi comprovada ao se analisar a atividade respiratória e a produção de etileno, que foram significativamente maiores no produto minimamente processado.The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of ethylene and bioregulators on the respiratory activity and ethylene synthesis of minimally processed and whole beet roots. For the minimal processing, beet roots were graded for firmness, color and size, and were peeled. Roots were then sanitized, shredded (2 mm thick), rinsed and centrifuged. The following treatments were applied: ethylene (1000 µL L-1), 1-methylciclopropene (300 nL L-1) and salicylic acid (500 mg L-1). After treatments, beet roots were packed and stored at 5±1 ºC and 85±5% RH during 10 days. It was observed that salicylic acid use promoted the decrease of respiratory rates of minimally processed beet roots during all storage time. It was also noted difference between whole and minimally processed beet roots physiology. This difference was observed by the high values of respiratory activity and ethylene production rates in the minimally processed beet roots.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP
Few-anyon systems in a parabolic dot
The energy levels of two and three anyons in a two-dimensional parabolic
quantum dot and a perpendicular magnetic field are computed as power series in
1/|J|, where J is the angular momentum. The particles interact repulsively
through a coulombic (1/r) potential. In the two-anyon problem, the reached
accuracy is better than one part in 10^5. For three anyons, we study the
combined effects of anyon statistics and coulomb repulsion in the ``linear''
anyonic states.Comment: LaTeX, 6 pages, 4 postscript figure
