The objective of this work was to study the formation of the pulp of camu camu in a matrix of calcium alginate encapsulation using the drip method by immersion of alginate solution of sodium, followed by a drying operation by dragging the process of external Gelation occurs with the calcium ion diffusion from a source that surrounds the hydrocolloid towards neutral pH alginate solution. Gel formation begins in the interface and moves inside to the surface is saturated with calcium ions, so that from the salt of alginate sodium ion is displaced by the Divalent cation solubilized in water. This interacts with the G- blocks of different polymer molecules, linking them together. Although, the most widely used source of calcium has been CaCl2 due to its higher percentage of available calcium, there are other salts employed less frequently such as acetate monohydrate and calcium lactate. Pulp ...

A pulp-based drink was made from Physalis peruviana (12 %), Passiflora edulis (9 %) and Ananas comosus (9%), with fiber of Avena sativa (12 %) and Linum usitatissimum (33 %), sweetened with Stevia rebaudiana (1 %), fulfilled the physicochemical, bromatological, microbiological and sensorial parameters to be suitable for human consumption. The study of the effect of the drink was quasi-experimental in 10 volunteer women between 21 and 39 years of age, students of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry of the UNMSM, all of them were overweight or obese according to their body mass index and classification dictated by the WHO, who consumed the drink with a frequency of four times a week during the three-month period, with monthly monitoring of anthropometric measurements and biochemical analysis of triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, glucose and hemoglobin. The results were analyz...
