Abstract in Portuguese
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar os aspectos fisiológicos, bioquímicos e microbiológicos de beterrabas Early Wonder minimamente processadas e inteiras submetidas a tratamentos pós-colheita. Para os tratamentos, os seguintes produtos foram aplicados: etileno (1000µL L-1), 1-MCP (300nL L-1) e ácido salicílico (500mg L-1), além do controle sem tratamento. Após os tratamentos, o produto foi armazenado a 5oC durante 10 dias. Observou-se que o ácido salicílico, promoveu a diminuição nos teores de sólidos solúveis, pH e na taxa respiratória de beterrabas minimamente processadas. Além disso, verificou-se que a fisiologia de beterraba minimamente processada é diferente de beterraba inteira, que foi comprovada ao analisar a taxa respiratória e a produção de etileno, as quais foram significativamente maiores no produto minimamente processado. As contagens de bactérias psicrotróficas e coliformes totais, para beterraba minimamente processada mantiveram-se dentro dos limites aceitáveis durante 10 dias de armazenamento. Não foi detectada presença de coliformes a 45ºC e Salmonella. Ficou evidenciada a eficiência do armazenamento a 5ºC no controle da atividade metabólica e segurança de beterrabas minimamente processadas. As injúrias causadas durante o processamento mínimo induziram o aumento na atividade da fenilalanina amônia-liase. Entretanto, a aplicação de ácido salicílico diminuiu a atividade desta enzima. Os tratamentos aplicados nas beterrabas minimamente processadas e inteiras pouco influenciaram na concentração de betalaínas e de fenóis totais. Verificou-se que, em tecidos de beterrabas Early wonder, não houve qualquer indício de adstringência provocada por tanino.

Abstract in English
The purpose of the present work was to evaluate physiological, biochemical and, microbiological aspects of Early Wonder whole and minimally processed beet roots submitted to different treatments. The following treatments were applied: ethylene (1000µL L-1), 1-MCP (300nL L-1) and, salicylic acid (500mg L-1). After treatments, beet roots were stored at 5oC during 10 days. It was observed that salicylic acid promoted decrease of soluble solids, pH and, respiratory rates of minimally processed beet roots. It was also noted differences between whole and minimally processed beet roots physiology. This difference was observed by the high values of respiratory and ethylene production rates in the minimally processed beet roots. Psychrotrophic bacteria and total coliforms count for minimally processed beet roots were within acceptable limits for 10 days of storage. The presence of coliforms at 45ºC and Salmonella was not detected. Storage at 5ºC was effective to control the metabolic activity and to keep food safety of minimally processed beet roots. The injuries occurred during the minimal processing induced the increase of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity. However, the use of salicylic acid decreased the activity of this enzyme. The treatments applied on whole and minimally processed beet roots have little influence on betalains and total phenol concentration. It was not detected astringency on beet roots Early wonder tissues.
