Caracterización fisicoquímica, microbiológica y sensorial de un vino de taxo (Passiflora tarminiana) y guayaba (Psidium guajava L).
No full textThis experimental research focused on analyzing how variations in pulp ratio and yeast type influence the characteristics of a fruit wine made from taxo (Passiflora tarminiana) and guava (Psidium guajava L.). The objective was to develop a novel product that combines sensory appeal with nutritional value by using underutilized tropical fruits. A completely randomized design was applied, with four treatments and three replications, combining two pulp ratios (40% taxo with 60% guava and 60% taxo with 40% guava) and two types of commercial yeast (P21 and XL). The wine was fermented over a 15-day period under controlled conditions. Physicochemical properties such as pH, °Brix (soluble solids), and titratable acidity were evaluated according to Ecuadorian technical standards (NTE INEN 374). Microbiological analysis was conducted to measure mold and yeast counts, ensuring the safety of the product. Additionally, sensory evaluations were performed using a hedonic scale with 30 untrained panelists who assessed aroma, flavor, texture, bitterness, and overall acceptability. Among the treatments, the combination of 40% taxo, 60% guava, and P21 yeast (T1) showed the most favorable results, especially in sensory perception. This formulation achieved the highest acceptability ratings, particularly for aroma and flavor, and met microbiological safety standards, although its mold and yeast counts approached the maximum permissible limits (10³ CFU/g) as outlined by NTE INEN 1529-10. While pH values did not show significant differences across treatments, statistically significant variations were observed in °Brix and titratable acidity, indicating that the fruit ratio and yeast type have a measurable impact on sugar content and acidity levels in the final product. This study demonstrates the importance of optimizing pulp proportions and yeast selection to enhance wine quality. It also highlights the potential of tropical fruits like taxo and guava in the creation of innovative fermented beverages. These findings promote the diversification of agro-industrial products and the valorization of native fruits with promising nutritional and commercial attributesThis experimental research focused on analyzing how variations in pulp ratio and yeast type influence the characteristics of a fruit wine made from taxo (Passiflora tarminiana) and guava (Psidium guajava L.).

El objetivo fue desarrollar un producto innovador que combine atractivo sensorial y valor nutricional, utilizando frutas tropicales poco aprovechadas. Se aplicó un diseño completamente al azar con cuatro tratamientos y tres repeticiones, combinando dos proporciones de pulpa (40% taxo y 60% guayaba, y 60% taxo y 40% guayaba) con dos tipos de levadura comercial (P21 y XL). La fermentación se llevó a cabo durante 15 días bajo condiciones controladas. Se evaluaron propiedades fisicoquímicas como pH, grados Brix (sólidos solubles) y acidez titulable, de acuerdo con las normas técnicas ecuatorianas (NTE INEN 374). El análisis microbiológico incluyó el recuento de mohos y levaduras para asegurar la inocuidad del producto. Además, se realizó una evaluación sensorial mediante una escala hedónica con 30 panelistas no entrenados, quienes valoraron aroma, sabor, textura, amargor y aceptabilidad. Entre los tratamientos, la combinación de 40% de taxo, 60% de guayaba y levadura P21 (T1) presentó los mejores resultados, especialmente en la percepción sensorial. Esta formulación obtuvo las calificaciones más altas en atributos como aroma y sabor, y cumplió con los estándares microbiológicos, aunque sus recuentos de mohos y levaduras se acercaron al límite máximo permitido (10³ UFC/g) según la NTE INEN 1529-10. Aunque no se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el pH, sí se encontraron variaciones significativas en los grados Brix y la acidez titulable, lo que demuestra que la proporción de fruta y el tipo de levadura afectan el contenido de azúcar y la acidez del producto final. El estudio demuestra la importancia de optimizar la proporción de pulpa y la selección de levaduras para mejorar la calidad del vino. Además, resalta el potencial del taxo y la guayaba en la elaboración de bebidas fermentadas innovadoras, promoviendo la diversificación y el valor agregado en la producción agroindustrial

Transmisión de los Saberes Ancestrales y su Relación con el Desarrollo del Turismo Cultural en la Provincia de Los Ríos
No full textThe research analyzes the transmission of ancestral knowledge and its impact on the development of cultural tourism in the province of Los Ríos, Ecuador. Its main objective was to determine how this knowledge can be integrated into the tourism offer to strengthen cultural identity and promote sustainable development. To this end, a mixed approach methodology was used, combining quantitative and qualitative techniques. Surveys were conducted with 200 inhabitants of the province and interviews were conducted with six tourism professionals from the Technical University of Babahoyo. The results showed that the most representative ancestral practices are agricultural production (35%) and natural medicine (29%), although their transmission faces difficulties due to the lack of interest of the new generations (64%). It was identified that older adults are the main transmitters of this knowledge (75 %), but the scarce dissemination and educational strategies limit its preservation. In addition, the study highlighted the need to implement strategies such as the creation of cultural routes, participatory workshops and digital promotion campaigns to strengthen cultural tourism based on the Montubio identity. It was concluded that the integration of ancestral knowledge in tourism can generate economic and cultural benefits, provided that adequate policies are implemented for its promotion and conservation. Finally, it is recommended to promote teaching spaces, community events and strategic alliances between institutions to ensure the continuity of these practices and promote cultural tourism in the province.The research analyzes the transmission of ancestral knowledge and its impact on the development of cultural tourism in the province of Los Ríos, Ecuador.
