Food quality is a concept that has unquestionable interest to Industries and consumers, hence the concern to preserve the products under appropriate conditions, avoiding physical and chemical changes that jeopardize the integrity of the foods. In this context, evaluation of some physical and chemical properties was done in order to investigate the effects of storage in hazelnuts, under certain conditions of tem...

Introduction: Food quality is a concept that has attracted the attention of Industries and consumers, hence the concern to preserve the products under appropriate conditions, avoiding physical and chemical changes that jeopardize the integrity of the food. In this context, assessments were made of the physical and chemical properties in order to investigate the effects of storage in almonds, under certain condi...
The quality of dehydrated products is a concern because, due to their very low moisture content, they tend to rehydrate quite easily, thus compromising the chemical, enzymatic or microbial stabilities, as well as the nutritional and sensorial properties. Having this in mind, this study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of storage in walnuts, under certain conditions of temperature, relative humidity and di...
