Resumo

Para aumentar a vida útil das frutas e legumes, para poder apreciá-los em todas as quatro estações e para preservar a sua composição genética, descobriu-se que a secagem é a melhor técnica de conservação. O objetivo deste trabalho baseia-se no estudo da cinética de secagem da abóbora (Curcubita maxima) por dois métodos de secagem, ou seja, secagem em estufa a uma temperatura de 60 °C e secagem em micro-ondas a 180 W, para modelar a cinética de secagem de camadas finas de abóbora por quatro modelos matemáticos (Two-Term, Modified Henderson e Pabis, Henderson Pabis e Bousselma et al.) e para estudar o efeito dos dois métodos de secagem nas propriedades nutricionais e microestruturais dos pós de abóbora. Os resultados mostraram que a secagem em micro-ondas foi mais rápida do que a secagem em forno. Henderson modificado e Pabis e Bousselma et al. modelos foram escolhidos para descrever adequadamente o comportamento de secagem de fatias finas de abóbora secas em forno e micro-ondas, respetivamente, devido a um elevado valor de R2 e baixos valores de χ2 e RMSE. A composição físico-química dos dois pós (POD e PMD) foi significativamente diferente (p < 0,05) em termos de teor de água, pH, brix, lípidos e potássio. A análise da composição qualitativa por FTIR não mostrou alteração entre os dois pós. Da mesma forma, a estrutura estudada por MEV apresentou uma estrutura idêntica e homogénea. Estes pós têm elevadas propriedades nutricionais e, por isso, a sua incorporação nos alimentos deve ser recomendada.
