Influencia del extracto etanólico de la cáscara de piña (Ananas comosus) en la inhibición del pardeamiento enzimático y conservación de las propiedades organolépticas de la papa canchan (Solanum tuberosum L.)
Chemical-synthetic methods have been developed to preserve the organoleptic properties of potatoes, but their consumption may be harmful to health. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the preservation capacity of ethanolic extract from the peel of Golden variety pineapple at different concentrations (3%, 7%, 10%, and 15%), compared to solutions of 0.1% sodium metabisulfite, 0.1% citric acid, 0.1% ascorbic acid, and a control sample of untreated potatoes. The study assesses the organoleptic characteristics and the effect of these treatments on enzymatic browning in Canchan variety potatoes over 14 days of observation. The CIElab* color parameters and ∆E were measured at 0, 3, 7, 10, and 14 days, respectively. Additionally, a sensory analysis was conducted, in which nine trained panelists determined the sensory profiles (quality and defects) and the acceptability of each treatment. The results showed that the extracts had a positive effect on color preservation, with the 10% and 15% extracts yielding the best results; however, these treatments exhibited low preservation of the characteristic potato flavor.Se han desarrollado métodos químico-sintéticos para preservar las propiedades organolépticas de la papa, pero cuyo consumo puede ser perjudicial para la salud.

Se evalúo los parámetros de color CIElab* y ∆E a los 0, 3, 7, 10 y 14 días respectivamente. Además, se realizó un análisis sensorial, donde 9 panelistas entrenados determinaron los perfiles sensoriales (calidad y defecto) y la aceptabilidad de cada uno de los tratamientos. Se determinó que los extractos mostraron un efecto positivo en la conservación del color de las papas, siendo los de 10% y 15%; los que obtuvieron mejores resultados; aunque estos presentaron una baja conservación del sabor característico a papa
Balancing accuracy, interpretability, and stability in machine-learning models: Live-weight prediction of Andean sheep from morphometric traits
The objective of this research was to predict the live weight of Corriedale lambs using morphological measurements and machine learning algorithms. A total of 291 five-month-old lambs from the Corpacancha Production Unit of SAIS PACHACÚTEC SAC were used. These animals represented a homogeneous group in terms of age, sex, and genetics, as they belonged to the Corriedale breed and were offspring of "Category A" ewes. Morphological measurements recorded included Body Length (BL), Withers Height (WH), Thoracic Girth (TG), Rump Width (RW), Abdominal Girth (AG), Cannon Bone Length (CBL), Chest Depth (CD), and Live Weight (LW). The models evaluated were Multiple Linear Regression, Ridge Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forest, and XGBoost. The comparative analysis of the machine learning models identified ModG and Ridge as the most accurate and stable options, standing out for their low Mean Squared Error (MSE = 0.083) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE ≈ 0.287 – 0.288). Additionally, they exhibited the highest coefficients of determination (R2 = 0.89, RAdj2 = 0.88), indicating excellent predictive capability and data fit. Their low coefficient of variation (CV%) confirms their stability, establishing them as the best choices for applications where precision is paramount, such as predicting critical values in production processes and high-demand scientific studies. While XGBoost proved to be a robust alternative with an MSE of 0.119, an RMSE of 0.345, and a relative error of 2.22%. These findings confirm that prioritizing models that balance accuracy, interpretability, and stability enable faster, data-driven decision-making in Corriedale sheep production. Such an approach optimizes feed allocation, classifies lambs by market weight, and promptly detects growth deviations, thereby improving overall flock profitability
Effects of six compost products on soil organic carbon and nitrogen levels in alfisol, rice yields, and diazotrophic endophytic populations
The decrease in nutrient content in the soil occurs because of an imbalance between nutrient intake and loss. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of applying six types of compost products, with different compost materials and bioactivators, on the soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) levels in Alfisol, on rice yields, and diazotrophic endophytic populations. The pot experiment was arranged in a Completely Randomized Design with a single factor consisting of 10 levels and 3 replications. The treatments compared control (R0), 6 types of compost (R1-R6), 50% chemical fertilizer (CF) (R7), 100% CF (R8), and a set combination (R9). Rice with a variety of Mentik Wangi was grown and harvested on 118 DAP. The results showed that the treatment R5 (compost C4 of a mixture of leaf litter, cow dung, peanut plant residue, and rock phosphate with bioactivator RMC) gave the highest increases of SOC and TN by 200% and 228.57%, and the highest plant dry weight and total seed weight by 247.55% and 171.16% compared to the control, respectively. Three treatments of R4 (compost C3), R6 (compost C5), and R9 (50% dosage of compost C3 in combination with mycorrhiza, zeolite, Azolla, and rock phosphate) yielded a similar effect at the second-highest levels in increasing SOC, TN, and rice yields. There was no significant effect of treatments on the population of diazotrophic bacterial endophytes in rice leaves. The present study revealed that compost enrichment with an effective bioactivator contributed significantly higher effects on soil fertility, plant growth, and yield compared to 100% chemical fertilizer (R8)
Impact of land use change and climate on the Brazilian Amazon: a review on carbon stocks and greenhouse gas emissions
Historically, land-use changes in the Brazilian Amazon, such as the conversion of forests to pastures, have significantly impacted carbon and nitrogen cycles, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and potentially compromising environmental sustainability. This review explores the effects of these changes on soil carbon and nitrogen stocks, emphasizing the role of sustainable practices and public policies in mitigating environmental impacts. Findings indicate that, although forest-to-pasture conversion may reduce soil organic carbon stocks by up to 11.3%, practices such as agroforestry systems, sustainable pasture management, and crop-livestock-forestry integration (CLFI) have the potential to reverse these effects by promoting carbon sequestration and soil conservation. Public policies such as the Low Carbon Agriculture Plan (ABC Plan) and the Amazon Fund are highlighted as essential pillars for sustainable development in the region. It is concluded that the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices, integrated with robust environmental policies and technological innovation, can transform the Amazon into a global model of balance between economic development and environmental conservation. Future studies should prioritize integrated assessments of carbon stocks, gas emissions, and socioeconomic indicators to support more effective and regionally adapted public policies
Eigen-concepts in the multiplicative linear algebra context
The concept of eigenvalues is associated with the linearity one, through the structure of vectorial space. The multiplicative linear algebra is a structure in which an expression such as x^3y^2 can be considered a linear combination of variables x and y. This article is reserved to show the corresponding analogues for an Eigenvalue Theory. We exemplify its applications by introducing a connection with the analysis of a nonlinear dynamical system in the standard sense, although a linear recurrence in the multiplicative one.El concepto de valores propios está asociado al de linealidad, a través de la estructura del espacio vectorial.
