Anais da 7ª Semana de Engenharia de Alimentos (Sealim) e do 5º Simpósio de Frutos Nativos e Exóticos (Sinatex)

Abstract

The Proceedings of the 7th Food Engineering Week (Sealim) and the 5th Symposium of Native and Exotic Fruits (Sinatex) compile the scientific production presented at the events held between September 22nd and 24th, 2025, at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Food and Nutrition (Facfan) of the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS). Sealim is an academic event of the Food Engineering course with a dynamic program, aligned with the demands of the sector and the formative practices of the university. Sinatex is an interdisciplinary space focused on the debate about socio-biodiversity, the sustainable use of native fruits, and the future of the regional bioeconomy. Both have contributed to strengthening the integration between teaching, research and extension. The 2025 edition had as its themes "Trends and Innovation in Sustainable Foods" and "What kind of bioeconomy do we want?" and fostered a rich exchange of knowledge through lectures, workshops, technical visits, scientific presentations, innovation initiatives and the Sociobiodiversity Fair. The diversity of the contributions in this collection reinforces the commitment of UFMS and Facfan to critical thinking, applied research, sustainability and development of innovative solutions in the food sector.
