Abstract

Pecan nut plays a special role in human nutrition, it is an important source of phenolic compounds, antioxidants, and mineral compounds that are considered highly beneficial for health. The main objective of this paper is to determine a reliable method for the conservation of the Western Schley and Wichita nuts varieties using antioxidants such as Herbalox Brand XT-25 rosemary oleoresin (HER) and Duralox Tocopherol 10% (DUR) for 12 months at different temperatures, looking to inhibit the enzymatic reaction of lipoxygenase. Trees with 7 years old were selected from the Patos land located in Ejido Santa María, Ciudad San Juan de Sabinas, Coahuila. In this work, three treatments with two temperature levels will be evaluated in three stages. The parameters evaluated were walnut moisture, color, texture, peroxidase, acid number and aflatoxins.
